Pricklike lol
That's true, he's quite an a$$hole, but that's just his personality (and most often it's just playing though)
The difference with Caps is that he knows about fear, death and humilliation. Supes is always confident of his god-like powers, and even when he "died" fighting Doomsday, he was still arrogant and overconfident of his "superiority".
Wolverine can be compared more to Ulisses or Herakles...guys that had something extra than a regular guy, but didn't relied on "superior" help. Most often they get by with attitude, balls and badassnery.
Supes can be compared more to Teseo, or Jason. He's got more "superior" help than real skill, and accomplish things thru this help.
(with "superior" take it as an abstract concept, being help from a god, or mega super powers).
Supes can be compared to Aragorn, while Wolverine can be compared to Boromir.
The first have some sort of "superior" protrection, they're barely human and sacrifice for them might not be concious because their "protection", while the second are basically humans that have to face their fears and win over it. Sacrifice for them is concious, they know it's the last resort, and they know it's needed so they do it anyways.

Hum, no, not above else. Above themselves.
Bats and Wolves are practically forces of justice. They give a damn about themselves, they have willingly sacrificed everything, but never putting others at risk.
Being violent, or not abiding to laws is not being an antihero.
Punisher is an antihero. While doing justice (let's not call it good), he also hurts others, and more than once he did willingly.
A good example of antihero-imho- is John Constantine. He's selfish, arrogant, and more than once he sacrificed a friend willingly, but in the end he tries to do good. Tries.
Lobo, despite being called an antihero, i think it's more of a force of chaos. Damn, he's practically a villain lol
