So, what is the antihero? Well, these are heroes that are not your typical superheroes; most of them do not have any superpowers, and are typical badass characters that you would find in the comic books. However, what they are truly endowed with is a dark sense of humor, and excellent sense of vigilante justice, and they do not care about laws, rules and regulations, neither do they want to have anything to do with it.

Nobody knew that a single letter V would be able to make most of the villains go weak on their needs. After all, there is nothing sinister about the letter V, unless you happen to be a criminal mastermind. Known for its violent, personality, as well as its vivacious content, V is the typical antihero that you would want to save you in the dark alley.

7. Marv

Over 7 feet tall, Marv is not a character that would like to mess with. However, he is a man that has a softer side, which means that he would not kill the people he cares about; rather he would be more than willing to take care of those people.

This monstrosity of a man is not something that you would want to be on the bedside effect, rather like Hulk, this is the character that you would like to avoid without any kind of issues or problems coming to the fore. Yes, this person is noted as one of the best comic book characters that you can find.

However, the one weakness in this vigilante is that he's susceptible to electricity. So, villains have been able to make use of it in generous amounts, but they have never been able to get the better of this antihero.

However, if there are any problems, than Judge Dredd is the first person to visit the criminal to take care of justice on his own, without the need or the requirement of any intervention of anyone.

3. Rorschach

From watchmen, Rorschach is a character that looks more or less like the scarecrow. He has extremely strong morals, which makes it ideal for the person to see that he's capable of bringing any kind of wrongdoer to justice.

Wearing the typical ink blot mask, Rorschach is definitely a character that you would not like to get on the wrong side of.

2. Punisher

Frank Castle or the Punisher is one of those people that not only turned violent after their family was murdered, but has now taken a renewed interest towards how he can better help the society.
