Protagonists Coming Out Are Increasingly More "evil."
In video games, movies, and more. Sure, there are still good good guys. But things have been changing.

 Cool. It's not my idea, though. I heard it some time ago.

I for one wont be surprised when a book/movie where the protagonist is a contract assassin becomes a huge hit.

In my opinion, they're not "Evil", they're misunderstood martyrs, or at least trying to fight the "bad" in them.
Take Twilight for example, the protagonist (one of them, anyways) being a vampire who tries his hardest to fight his instincts for whom he loves.
Technically, he's held up as "evil" because of tradition and sometimes because he truly does kill, but character development tells us that he isn't so evil. Give me a book where the character is evil as in cold-blooded evil, and I will gladly take back my argument.

 I don't read much books. If I do, they are probably non-fiction.
Look at the videogame "Fable." The game lets you choose between being a nice hero and a merciless killer. The merciless killer side is more sought after, I think. But that reflects the players.
