Dr.House, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Han Solo, and so on, and so forth. Something is appealing about anti-heroes, for instance: Superman is bland, perfect and ultimately a bruh superhero, whose clones (like [Captain Horrible Puns](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Planet_and_the_Planeteers)) are outright bad, whilst Tony Stark and Batman, who are basically the same "Rich guy with high-tech gadgets", manage to be interesting, because of their flaws. But again, what is so appealing about these characters? I mean, the villains are flawed too, but we don't usually sympathize with them. **General tips and things to consider, when writing an anti-hero?**
