Well being that Arrow brought up the fact that there aren't Black Characters in comics, it got me to thinking... What about Spanish Characters? Like headliners. White Tiger is a crappy character and I don't really see any Spanish Characters. If somebody can show me where they are, I'll be grateful. And am I over exaggerating?

Bueno Exelente?

or does that one need some explanation?

M

Sofia Mantega, I think her name is. She's a main character in New X-Men, or was, I don't know. Same with Tag. But he got killed when a bus was ambushed.

Then, I don't know if she's a main one, but Silverclaw.

And, this may not be a comic, but he has a movie named after him: The Condor.

The Arana. She was in Civil War.

But now are they like, names just about everybody knows? I don't think so. The 1st three were like crappy. I think there should be more ethnicities in Comics. More Spanish and Black characters in comics. More heavyweights.

I seriously want to know (I get the feeling this guy is a disgrace to my people)

I couldn't see it. The pic never loaded up on this crappy pc. Like I said, a disgrace. I don't see Spanish Super heroes being done justice.

lol, ok, noones mentioned Zorro yet?

M

yeah, went for quite a long time...

dunno if it's still running though... have to look into that

Methos says:

Lol. I didn't know Zorro had a comic.

Y'know, it's real lame that no one's made El Santo into a comic...

There's the big one right there!

Curiousity on something. I ask simply because of a discussion I had with an unnamed member who insisted he knew what a person from Puerto Rico looked like. What would make a character 'Hispanic'? Would it be their name? Their color? Their speech mannersims? What makes a character Hispanic enough (or any other ethnicity/color/whatever)without making them a stereotype?

How about their face? There are certain features to a face which you make out. Last names usually work too.

Trust me, in a lot of cases, it doesn't work at all. There's no one Hispanic look though there are definitely features that are more prevalent. Same with the last names. I work with a woman from Argentina who most emphatically does not 'look' Hispanic nor does her last name reflect it yet she certainly is.

I guess you will simply have to ask them. :P

Though I would say in most cases, facial features will give at least an idea of where they are from. Last names have worked for me the most of the times I see last names.

Excellent question. I would have to go with Ms. Invisible. I think that most South and Central American Hispanics do have a lot of the features of the indigenous peoples of those countries, from before the new world was "discovered". Hispanic people from Spain would be more difficult to depict but that's where their last names. This would work for those from the Americas that the artist does not want to depict with any of the usual distinguishing features.

Lots of times when I'm watching baseball highlights I will see a guy who I think is a white or black american and then they will mention his name and he's hispanic. So just like in real life, the name would be a good way of showing the ethnicity of the individual.

There will always be that one person who will throw you for a loop, no matter the ethnicity/color/whatever. The lady I work with has what would be considered a German last name and I once knew a girl who had what most people would have decided was a Chinese last name. It seems it is also common in Mayan dialects. She was from Guatemala.

My point really is that there's no way to label a character as anything in particular and have that label be absolutely definitive.

  All these characters are Hispanic , not Spanish. 
 
 Some Spanish characters are: Jolt (DC), Vega (Street Fighter), Conquistador, Diablo, El Águila, El Supremo, Empath, Matador, Vargas (Marvel)

Oh wow, a forum that talks about Hispanic heroes

Thank Goodness. Gracias.

Of Hispanic descent(European/white) or native American descent?
