This is a list of Latino superheroes. Over the years the comic medium has delivered a diverse but stereotypical sampling of minority characters. For a brief history of stereotypical depictions of "Hispanic" characters in comics see the ethnic stereotypes in comics article.
This page focuses exclusively on documenting the history of the "Latino" superheroes whether they are of European (specifically Spanish and not other European people of Latin descent such as Italian, Portuguese, and French, who, for whatever reason, will not be considered "Latino" in this context), Mestizo, Mulatto, Chicano, Native American, MesoAmerican, Zambo, or Indigenous descent, or some mix of these ethnicities.
For related "non-Hispanic" groups (many of whom speak Spanish or have Spanish surnames), see also: List of Filipino superheroes and List of Native American superheroes, which will provide a somewhat comprehensive listing across many companies and many media including print, the web, television, and movies. While it may appear to focus mainly on the Latino experience in the United States, other visions are welcome.
