Something about antiheros is appealing to me. They make stories different than others. Heros can't always be the gifted, strong, goodhearted guys. It's nice when main characters go through a change in the story so that everyone, Characters and readers, learn a lesson.

the antihero is the flawed underdog in most stories. When we read them we see our own imperfections.

Maybe that is why I like them. I can relate with them since I'm not perfect like the typical stereotype hero.

I prefer the anti-hero. Anti-heroes are more realistic more human. I believe if a person was to gain some kind of power, even though they might do some good I think they would help their own situation first and they would still have their faults and short comings.
