I've always liked Marvel, but recently started to really get into it. So, it made me very happy to see that there are many heroes that are like me - Mexican. I'm indigenous Mexican from the Zapotec people. Planning to watch Agents of Shield and was already excited to see Ghost Rider, but learning he's Mexican makes it better. It's just nice to get some good representation in the media.

Robbie Reyes is my favorite Mexican hero.

Jaime is such a good example of how to make sure your new generation hero isn’t overshadowed by the prior gen. He’s a whole new guy, and a whole different Beetle.

Robbie has the coolest looking design for a ghost rider and el chapulin Colorado best Mexican superhero I feel like only a few people know who he is because he's not really from a comic

[IAYTD]

Any heroes of Mexican background that you think I missed? There will likely be a part two!

Rayner was the Lantern that made me care about Green Lantern. And he was a graphic artist too: so his constructs were FAR more creative than any other Lanterns' before him.

Im surprised marvel hasnt added these guys in the marvel universe seeing we are an audience they should be reaching. Kind of a slap to the face for us. Spider man 2099 would be dope even if they made is a series just for Disney's new streaming service.

Even though this character isn't from popular comics, he is from Man of Action. Generator Rex was always a cool character to me when I saw the cartoon series He reminded a lot of Blue Beetle from Young Justice. Another cool show I enjoyed

[VXMasterson]

Thank you for including my two favorite characters, Robbie Reyes and Miguel O'Hara <3
One slight correction. Miguel does have venomous fangs but his talons/claws are not venomous.

How is it that I JUST found this channel? I just watched your video on the 7 wonders of the ancient world and now there’s comic book content????

Omgggg amazing!!!!

[thaliaramos]

I wish they make more movies with Hispanic superhero rather it’s female or male I think that be the coolest thing ever .

[johnhernandez]

Thank you for this :, ) have only recently come to realize how little Mexican / Latino representation there’s been historically in comics, movies and any popular media in general —kind of crazy when you realize 1 in 6 people in the US are Latino :(

[magnet]

They ain't no superman, but at least their trying to keep indigenous american progenitors alive.

Thank you for highlighting and sharing info on comic characters from diverse backgrounds. However, as someone who is Mexican, I ask that you change this playlist name to "Latino" as opposed to "Latinx". I know I can't speak for all Latinos, but I, along with many others, don't like the use of the word "latinx", as it imposes an unnecessary gender neutrality on the beautiful Spanish language. I do not wish to put anyone down, but traditionally, "Latino" has always been accepted to use to refer to groups that include both men and women. I hope you take my comment into consideration 😁

Have you ever read FREY ... she's awesome!

[halamlive]

Blue beetle is my favourite Mexican superhero

[patoteto]

Blue Seattle is not Mexican though he's from Guatemala or at least in the anime it is

[cliffwoodbury]

It would be cool if you went more in depth with Asian and European hereos. there are over 200 asian hereos and villians on one site, and same with europe. There are over 100 marvel russian characters and many more DC Russian characters.
