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.
