Lame Hispanic Characters

This would be the companion piece to my list of cool hispanic characters. For the most part these are the guys who are just pathetic. Their powers are lame, their look is lame, and they probably have little or no depth/personality to speak of. For the most part I do not see them as having any apprecciable potential for greatness, even if handed over to a competent writer. Alternatively, I will also include characters who might have decent powers/abilities, but they've never been treated as anything but a B or C-List character at best. They're practically little more than supporting cast. Token Brown Characters get to be here too, if 'Token Brown Character' is all they are.

Note: I've recently come to understand the difference between Race and Ethnicity, and realize I use the word "Hispanic" pretty inaccurately in several places. I should go edit them. But I won't. Cuz I'm lazy. But i'm not lazy because i'm hispanic. I'm lazy because i'm American. :)

List items

  • One of the heroes tragically inspired by the deciedly uninspiring Guacho.

  • I'm assuming he's hispanic from the real name. I'm slapping him onto the lame list because the floppy ears on his costume makes me facepalm.

  • Can't find much on this guy. Off hand, i'm not liking the look at all. Striped underoos over yellow pants? I'm facepalming again over here. But if I learn more about him i'll re-evaluate his placement.

  • No clue if she's actually hispanic but comic creators don't generally bother including hispanic slang words in a character's name unless they want to loudly declare how culturally inclusive they are to all their liberal elite friends. So Ta-DA! I know jack squat about this chick, but her "costume" doesn't make me facepalm so i'll float her a few points for that. Sure it's just a swimsuit and shades, but there's something to be said for KISS. Keep it simple stupid. And hydroman and Fathom have both demonstrated how damn potent water morph powers can be. But ultimately it's sheer obscurity that condemns her to this list. Well that and the silly name.

  • Don't know much about her beyond what's on Comicsvine which is...precious little. Despite being kinda hot I see nothing here worth putting her on the cool list for though.

  • Not much to go on here, but she has no powers, or Luthor-style superbrains and was stupid enough to go after one of the most powerful Top Cow characters. She's lucky Jackie "let her live".

  • Blinded, disfigured, and perpetually depressed. Next please.

  • Again, though it pains me to condemn a werewolf to this list I just don't envision her bringing anything more to the table than her brothers did.
