About This Quote

An antihero is a character who is much like the villains of literature. They are witty, charming, and intelligent. They take advantage of others and do whatever they want, no matter how wrong it might be. But, they do all of this for what they believe in.

They take action because they believe that their actions are just. That’s what makes them antiheroes.
