* Lex Luthor, [[Depending on the Writer]], believes what he is doing is right and honorable. From his perspective<ref> and the [[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Black Mage's]]</ref>, he is the hero and [[Superman]] is the villain. He views Superman and most of the other heroes of the DC universe as the greatest threat to mankind, and is determined to "save humanity" at any cost.
* {{spoiler|Ozymandias}} from ''[[Watchmen]]''. Now ''there's'' a misunderstood villain. He single-handedly kills off half of New York City in order to avert a nuclear war between the US and the Soviet Union that would destroy the world. I'm still not sure whether Alan Moore was trying to portray him as the villain or the tragic hero of the story. If he's the hero, then that'd make Rorschach the villain, and he's definitely misunderstood as well.
** Wait...Was {{spoiler|Ozymandias}} the hero and Rorschach the villain, or Rorschach the hero and {{spoiler|Ozy}} the villain? [[Mathematician's Answer|Yes.]] [[Black and Gray Morality]] doesn't even ''begin'' to define Watchmen.
** One common interpretation of the Black Freighter was a criticism of Veidt's actions.
