Does batman count as an anti-hero

  1. Anti-hero

  2. Hero (he got no powers so he's not super)

  3. Super hero (his brain is his super power)

  4. Bull shit over powered (he beat superman and darkseid)

    High tech gadgetry bought with money counts as a power otherwise you'd have to discount a lot of tech based heroes such as cyborg, and Iron man.

    is Iron Man a super hero? because some batsuits are as or even more powerful than the standard Iron Man.

    Neutral-hero: "when injustice hides I do not care. But if it dares to be in front of me..."

    Hero-"every living being deserves fairness, and it's the duty of the strong to preserve and uphold it".


    Evil : " when the path ahead is endless having strings and limits are a sin to your life"

    Anti-hero " other than people whom I care all others are a means to an end".



    Me: " Evil, good, neutral are weathers in a man's heart, take no liking to one, as each dictates a phase of life"

    As long as you’re better than 99% of your fellow apes, you’re a super hero. A super human, rather.

    If it's the definition of antihero I learned in school, then Batman is definitely not one of them.
    Characteristics:
    • isolation; loneliness
    • passive; bored
    • critical towards society
    • melancholic; resignation
    • never succeeds
    • never the antagonist
    • no heroic characteristics
    • readers like them, because they can somewhat identify with them and/or pity them
    An example: Die Leiden des jungen Werther (The Sorrows of Young Werther) - Goethe
    It's been a while, so I fact-checked with Wikipedia (the German one; the English page is pretty short)

    super heroes give the hope to live
    but anti heroes give the fear to one doing crime
