Are there any luchador superheroes in Marvel or DC? If not, why aren't there any? It just makes sense.

Bane?

Bane is a supervillain and the lucha aspect is pretty toned down.

I'm talking full-on luchadors, with wrestling and everything.

Didn't one of the International Batmen wear a lucha mask?
Also Bwana/Freedom Beast kinda looks like a Luchadore.

I think you might be talking about the Batman of Argentina.

And even then I'm pretty sure it wasn't a lucha mask. On top of that, I think his archenemy had an actual lucha gimmick.

So yeah, not quite what I'm looking for.

So he's a straight up luchador then?

>So he's a straight up luchador then?

>Widely known as a former Avenger and New Warrior, Rage was a viewpoint character who answered the question “What would youdo if you were a 13-year-old kid who got exposed to Official Marvel Comics Issue Toxic Waste™ and got a new body where you looked ten years older, were super-strong, and invulnerable?”It’s an alarmingly specific question, yes, but it’s one that young comics readers have been pondering for the past seven decades, and most of them have come to the conclusion that they’d do what Elvin Haliday did: Put on a tiger-print lucha mask and hang out with Captain America until everyone found out you were actually in 8th Grade. Which, now that I think of it, basically makes Rage the Marvel Comics Luchador version of Billy Batson.

Oh fuck I forgot about her. Did she ever get any characterization at all?

>>81220832
>Pantha is another Honorary Titan who had been targeted by the Brotherhood of Evil; in spite of their best efforts, she manages to prevent her capture. She partners with Beast Boy, Jericho, Herald, and Más (of Más y Menos) in order to free their captured comrades. Pantha also proves useful as being bilingual; speaking both Spanish and English, she translates Más' instructions as he guides the group to where the frozen Titans are being held in the Brotherhood's fortress.

Instead of her traditional feral human hybrid appearance from the comic books, Pantha is rather portrayed as a popular Mexican wrestler (or luchadora) with a superhuman level of strength and speed, wearing a black-and-yellow tiger-striped singlet, a yellow belt bearing a capital "P" symbol, wrestling boots, and a yellow tiger-style wrestling mask. Her go-to ability is a finishing move she calls "The Pantha's Claw," in which she applies an Iron Claw submission hold with a ferally-morphed hand, capable of stunning an opponent as large as Mammoth.

Yes.

Jaime Reyes' design was inspired by lucha masks

>>81220882
it was her spotlight.

>Cyborg met her at a wrestling ring and made her an Honorary Titan. She was then attacked by Adonis and Atlas whom were sent by the Brotherhood of Evil, but defeats them both.
later Pantha joined the team of Beast Boy, Más, Herald and Jericho to launch an assault on the Brotherhood of Evil's main headquarters, and then took part in the final battle against the various supervillains assembled by the Brotherhood of Evil

A hero of the people type supervillain though!

It gets really pronounced in the New52 because both Bane and Killer Croc have the same shtick - teaching the underdog to be strong. Although Croc has the whole "fighting for the repressed underclass" thing locked down, aside from the eating people bit.

Bane has never come across as a luchador supervillain/hero to me though. Yeah I know his appearance is based off of luchas and all, but to me it always just seemed like he just threw on a lucha mask and called it a day.

I like Bane as the villain that's really not trying to be a villain, like Brock as Venom.

neither marvel nor dc, but there was an awesome hellboy comic where hellboy rolled with these luchadore brothers hunting down vampires across mexico for a few months

Stan Lee's Batman was a wrestler. It was actually a really cool book, I wish there was more of him, provided he got a redesign.

The entire roster of Lucha Underground.
>>
The Thing's solo comic was about wrestling in the UCWF for a considerable time. Also Marvel had a stable of evil female wrestlers called The Grapplers that doesn't show up enough. Screaming Mimi was a member and it is a shame that Songbird never pulls out a northern lights suplex for old time's sake.

He became an actual luchador for about a page in a joke story about D-Man's life finally becoming good just before the universe ended from Secret Wars. It's notable for his line of "Now the luchador mask will finally make sense!"

He's all about machismo, lucha pride and being a territorial alpha male, getting into feuds for little to no reason and throwing spinning backbreakers like candy.
