18 Best Anti Heroes In Marvel

 

18 Best Anti Heroes in Marvel Comics

Introduction

The Marvel Universe is full of heroes, villains, and anti heroes. There are plenty of great characters who don't fit into either category but who still deserve recognition for their impact on the world around them. Here's a list of my picks for ten best anti-heroes in Marvel comics:

Wolverine

Wolverine is a mutant with superhuman senses, healing ability, and an animal-like agility. He was born in Alberta Canada to a family of Irish immigrants who were farmers.

Wolverine was originally known as James Howlett but he later changed his name when he became involved with the X-Men superhero team. After being injured while fighting crime as an agent for the United States government (who wanted him dead), Wolverine left that life behind and dedicated himself full time to training other mutants like Cyclops (Scott Summers) at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters where they learn how to control their powers responsibly so no harm comes from them accidentally hurting someone else."

Star Lord

Star Lord is one of the most popular Marvel characters, and has appeared in several different media. He's a former space explorer who became an interstellar policeman for the Guardians of the Galaxy. He's also an anti-hero, who does things that are ethically questionable but which he thinks are necessary to protect his friends or stop injustice.

Star Lord is also one of the most complex characters in all of comics; his backstory is complicated and constantly changing as new writers come onto his book (there have been seven different writers since issue #1). In order to keep up with this rapid development, we've compiled some information about him here on our website:

Deadpool

Deadpool is a comic book anti-hero. He first appeared in New Mutants #98 and has since become popular with fans of Marvel Comics.

Deadpool's powers include regenerative healing factor, superhuman strength and stamina, super-hearing, telepathy (under certain circumstances), accelerated healing factor (the ability to heal injuries within seconds), regeneration at an accelerated rate that allows him to regrow severed limbs or missing organs within minutes of losing them; superhuman endurance; increased agility; superhuman reflexes; peak human accuracy & dexterity | X-Men Factor| Superhuman Strength| Superhuman Stamina| Superhuman Hearing

Venom

• Venom is a fictional character that appears in Marvel Comics.

• Venom is a symbiote, a sentient alien organism with an appearance typically like a gooey liquid, that requires a host. The suit first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #252 (1985). It possesses superhuman strength and durability, allowing it to withstand great amounts of damage or punishment. However, its true power comes from the venom it secretes through its bite: when injected into another person's bloodstream via their open wounds or mucous membranes (such as those found around eyes), it can cause the recipient to become addicted to its presence—both physically and psychologically—and eventually transform them into one of its identical offspring upon death; this process can also be reversed if enough willpower is used against it ("I will not change!").

Magneto

Magneto is a mutant who can control metal, making him one of the most powerful villains in Marvel Comics. He is also an anti-hero, because he's been a member of both the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and the X-Men. Magneto has been played by Michael Fassbender in several movies including X-Men: First Class and X-Men: Days of Future Past (and will be played by Ian McKellen in next year’s X-Men: Dark Phoenix).

Punisher

The Punisher is one of the most popular anti heroes in Marvel comics. He uses murder, kidnapping, extortion and coercion to achieve his goals. He is a man with no remorse or pity for those he kills and even if it means killing an innocent child at one point in his life (he was trying to protect his family from harm).

The Punisher first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #129 by Gerry Conway and Ross Andru back on November 1974 as a second rate killer who took justice into his own hands after witnessing someone being killed by some gangsters; however this does not mean that Frank Castle has any kind of super powers but rather just an enormous amount of rage towards criminals which leads him on many adventures!

Ghost Rider

Ghost Rider is a Marvel Comics superhero. He's the alter ego of Johnny Blaze, a stunt rider who made a deal with the devil and became Ghost Rider after he died in an accident. Ghost Rider's powers include hellfire and chain weapons, which he wields with abandon as well as riding his motorcycle around on fire (yes).

Mystique

Mystique is a shapeshifter who can change her appearance at will. She's been both a villain and a hero, but she has also been part of the X-Men. She was married to Sabretooth, and they have children together.

Loki

Loki is the god of mischief and trickery, who has often been at odds with his brother Thor. He was first introduced in 1962 as a villain in Journey into Mystery #92 and has since gone on to become one of Marvel's most popular characters.

In the first Thor movie, Loki was portrayed by Tom Hiddleston (who also played him on TV's The Avengers). While it may seem strange that an actor would portray a character who had never appeared before in any medium prior to this film—and even more so when you consider how long ago those comics were published—Loki has proven himself worthy enough to earn an appearance here as well!

Iron First

Iron First is a superhero with the power to turn into steel and become nearly unstoppable. He's also a mutant, which means he has slightly different abilities from other heroes. Iron First was born into wealth, but he lost most of it when his father died in an accident involving an experimental security system that left him with PTSD. He's brilliant in science, physics and engineering—but not so much at math or English (he has trouble reading).

Iron First has an impressive suit of armor that helps him fight crime as well as protect himself from danger:

Black Cat (Felicia Hardy)

Felicia Hardy is the alter ego of Catwoman, and she's a skilled acrobat, gymnast, and hand-to-hand combatant. Her powers are amplified by her feline DNA (which also makes her immune to disease). She's been known to use cat claws in combat — or just scratch people when they annoy her.

She has a soft spot for Spider-Man because he saved her life when she was young after being attacked by some thugs who wanted revenge on the hero who helped them escape from prison. He even gave up his chance at becoming an Avenger for this reason!

Ares

Ares is the God of War, and he's also the son of Zeus. He has a long history with Hercules (and maybe even more so than his half brother).

Ares was originally created by Jack Kirby as an anti-hero who could fight against evil in all its forms—but over time, he evolved into one of Marvel's most popular villains. He's even married to Wonder Woman!

Sometimes the characters we hate are actually the most loved.

Sometimes the characters we hate are actually the most loved. When trying to decide which antihero to include on this list, I thought about who would be most likely to have a cult following and then came across Spider-Man: The Movie (1978), which was based on The Amazing Spider-Man comic book series. At first, I thought that this movie would feature a more sympathetic version of Peter Parker—a nerdy science student who discovers his power through accident and uses it for good rather than evil—but instead he became an embittered asshole who hated everyone around him. He was so unlikable that he even made me dislike Peter Parker!

But guess what? People liked him anyway! And they still do today! In fact, there's even an entire website dedicated solely to hating everything about him called "The Anti-Spiderman Movement." And while some might argue that this is just because fans want revenge on their favorite superhero for being such an asshole (and therefore wouldn't want any part of his history), others might say something different: maybe it's because these people are sickos who enjoy seeing other people suffer under their thumbs?

Elektra

Elektra is a trained assassin, who has a history with the Hand. She is also an expert in many weapons and can fight with her bare hands or with deadly precision. She has been portrayed by Jennifer Garner and Elodie Yung on screen, but she appeared in Marvel Comics in the Daredevil series as well.

Elektra was born in Greece to wealthy parents who were killed when she was eight years old by members of the Hand (an organization known for its crime). The organization wanted her because they believed she would make them rich through her skills as an assassin; however, they failed to realize how much pain they caused her along with their murder attempt on her life.

In order to escape this fate at such young age, Elektra trained herself so hard that she became one of Marvel's most elite assassins ever seen before today!

Sabretooth

Sabretooth is a villain who's been around since the early days of Marvel Comics. He was created by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, but he quickly became one of the most popular villains in all of comics. This guy is no joke! The name "Sabretooth" comes from a Native American word meaning "bear tooth," which makes sense because that's exactly what he looks like: a giant mutant wolf with bony spikes all over his body (and also sharp teeth).

The character first appeared in 1972 as part of an X-Men spin-off series called Weapon X (which later became Wolverine). Sabretooth was originally created by writer Len Wein as an antagonist for Wolverine going up against X-Men members Storm, Colossus and Iceman along with other heroes such as Gambit; however after some time had passed away from this world after being killed off by Cyclops' optic blast during battle between mutants versus humans who were trying to destroy them all along -- so now it's time for someone else!

Songbird (Melissa Gold)

Songbird (Melissa Gold) is a superheroine and former member of the Thunderbolts. She has the ability to project sonic blasts from her vocal cords. She was created by Kurt Busiek and Mark Bagley.

Songbird's powers first appear in Avengers #322, where she attempts to help out during a battle between Earth's Mightiest Heroes and Thanos' Black Order. After being captured by Hulkling, she manages to escape confinement with help from Captain America but ends up getting captured again after failing her mission due to being distracted by an interaction with Iron Man Jr.. In this story arc it is revealed that Songbird has been friends with several superheroes over time including Captain America since childhood; Spider-Man; Hawkeye; Black Widow; Ms Marvel (Kamala Khan); Luke Cage etc., as well as other heroes like Iron Man Jr., Spider-Man Noir etcetera whom she met while working together during World War II when they were still teenagers themselves!

Paladin

The best part about Paladin? He's a super soldier who's been around since the 1960s. That means he's got more than enough experience to be one of Marvel's most powerful heroes. In fact, he ranks among the most powerful anti-heroes in comics—and that's saying something!

Paladin was created by John Byrne, who also gave us Alpha Flight and Omega Flight (two other groups of superheroes). His character has changed over time but still remains one of Canada’s greatest defenders against evil.

Paladin first appeared in Alpha Flight #1 (1992) as Guardian, but later went by his original name when he joined up with Alpha Flight again after being struck down by cancer some years earlier; both names are used interchangeably throughout his career as such because there isn't really any difference between them aside from how they look on their uniforms or otherwise identify themselves publicly throughout this article series we're creating here today about these heroes so far known throughout history across multiple mediums including film studios like Disney Animation Studios which produces animated features based off comics stories written by writers like Joss Whedon who wrote episodes entitled “Something Old Something New" episode number 3102 which aired May 26th 2016; this particular episode focuses primarily around an old friend returning home after years away abroad only find out something shocking has happened while he wasn't there to help save someone else during this case scenario where something bad happens because those two characters were left behind without anyone else present at all times except maybe?

Diamondback (Rachel Leighton)

Diamondback is a mercenary and former agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., who was recruited by Nick Fury to join his Secret Warriors team during an event known as Inferno (Vol 1). She's also known for being one of the most powerful women in comics, with superhuman strength, speed and agility; she can even grow wings!

Diamondback has been around since 2002 but has only recently become a mainstay character on Netflix's Marvel shows like Jessica Jones and Luke Cage (which features her best friend Luke Cage’s wife Claire Temple) - despite this she still doesn't get much recognition outside of those two shows because she doesn't have any major storylines yet!

Agent Venom (Flash Thompson)

Agent Venom is a human-symbiote hybrid who became a Spider-Man villain, but then became the hero known as Flash Thompson. His real name is Eddie Brock, but he goes by Agent Venom in the comics and on TV. He's also part of Marvel's Secret Avengers team along with other heroes like Captain America, Black Widow and Moon Knight.

Marvel has some of the best anti-heroes out there.

As a reader, you may be familiar with anti-heroes. These are characters who are not always good and often do bad things for the sake of it—or because they're just plain old mean. They can be driven by revenge or other dark emotions like anger and hate; they don't care about the consequences of their actions; and sometimes even if they try to change their ways, it doesn't work out so well in the end.

Marvel has some of these characters too! Here are 10 of the best:

Conclusion

There are some incredible anti-heroes in Marvel Comics. They may not always be the most popular or have the best reputations, but they're worth reading about nonetheless!
