Héroes de alquiler

In the late 1990s, Spanish publisher Planeta DeAgostini launched Héroes de alquiler, a 19-issue series that reimagined the superhero team-up as a mercenary-for-hire operation. With a rotating cast of heroes and a gritty, street-level tone, the series stood out for its focus on the business and moral compromises of super-powered adventuring. It remains a distinctive Spanish take on the superhero genre, blending action with a cynical edge that set it apart from its American counterparts.
