Alpha Male
Spare me your daps
I'd gotta dig in the archives. Maybe not in comic books but I'm sure there are movies where you're rooting for the bad guy who's also the films lead. shyt maybe The Godfather 2 lol. Michael is a b*stard from start to finish but you're following his journey. We understand where Michael is coming from but that doesn't make him less of a villain. That's the first one that comes to mind but it may not be the best example
I suppose that's a decent enough example.

Michael could be pretty evil. Ordered the murder of an innocent prostitute.
