Favourite comic book anti-hero?

[Spider Jerusalem]

Poll question: Favourite comic book anti-hero?

They're angry. They're driven by revenge, or hate. They're dark and violent and not above using the tactics of their enemies against them. And they're usually more interesting characters that the selfless Boy Scouts who feel "compelled to use their abilities in the service of humanity". So, which is your favourite?

1. It's got to be Spider.

Anybody who frequently employs a bowel disruptor in his line of work . . .

. . . and his line of work is a journalist . . .

well, anything else goes without saying.

4. No Wolverine???

The character basically created the huge anti-hero movement that Image made so popular through the early nineties.

5. Eh...

the Punisher was the first Marvel anti-hero I thought of, and most of the others are from outside of the traditional superhero genre (except for Batman).
