List of Latino superheroes

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 71.103.32.216 (talk) at 01:10, 27 July 2006 ([[DC Comics]]). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Over the years the comic medium has delivered a diverse but stereotypical sampling of minority characters. This article attempts to provide a useable list of Hispanic or Latino superheroes. For a brief history of stereotypical depictions of Latino characters in comics see the Ethnic stereotypes in comics article. This page focuses exclusively on documenting the history of the Latino superheroes whether they hail from the Americas (North, Central, and South), Spain or Portugal (and / or of Spanish, Portuguese, Mestizo, or Indigenous descent). See also: List of Filipino superheroes and the List of Native American superheroes. And it will hopefully provide a somewhat comprehensive listing across many companies and many mediums including print, the web, television and movies. While it may appear to focus mainly on the Latino experience in America, other visions are welcome.
