FOREIGN HEROES (EUROPE AND THE AMERICAS)
Some from America (Comics), others from France (La bande dessinee), Germany (Bilderstreifen or Bildergeschichter), Italy (Fumetti), Argentina (Historietas), Brazil (Quadrinhos) and Spain (Tabeos).
Some relevant books which are still in print (excluding X-Men titles) are orderable directly; see individual listings below.
Loki's An International Catalogue of Superheroes is the best general resource
on the subject.
Jorge de la Cruz's Home Page includes the Hispanic, Native American, Black
and Asian Supers lists.
Balch Institute-Ethnic Images in the Comics presents a series of
fascinating and erudite articles about ethnic heroes and others.
The Global Guardians, DC's defunct team of token superheroes, has their own
webpage now which includes a timeline for the team.
The Good Guys & Gals Of The Golden-Age Art Gallery has monthly rotating features
on a variety of characters, and usually features a couple from the UK or elsewhere.
Marvel Europe has its own set of pages detailing mostly translated material.
Museum of Black Superheroes has a variety of articles and character bios.
Salute to Pioneering Cartoonists of Color offers brief bios and samples from
early black cartoonists.
Yahoo! Clubs: International Comics Club is a center for discussing many of
these characters.
note: there is an unnamed member of the International Delegaton of
Masked Archers (Green Arrows of the World) with a turban (Indian?) and
another with a keffiyeh (Arabic?) headdress
note: Captain Rip Carter's Black Phantoms, of which the Boy Commandos
were the mascots, were presumably an international team.
note: Captain Daring & the Sky-Sharks worked in England - a Blackhawks
rip-off, obviously, with multicultural air aces, but they did exist
in Timely's books in the 1940s. The Victory Boys were Boy Commando
rip-offs - but they existed, too, during the 1940s.
