Characters

Manny Rivera/El Tigre (Full Name: Manuel Pablo Gutiérrez O'Brien Equihua Rivera) : A 13-year-old Mexican-American boy, son of a Mexican panther-themed superhero White Pantera and grandson of a Mexican puma-themed super villain Puma Loco. His mother Maria left him. He wants to be a lot good for his father Rodolfo, but being a little bit bad like his grandf

ather Granpapi Rivera is too much fun. When he spins his mystical belt buckle, Manny transforms into the brave and powerful tiger-themed superhero El Tigre, who struggles with whether to use his superpowers for good or evil. His superhero name translates from Spanish to "The Tiger", which refers to his costume & claws. In "Enter the Cuervo" he develops a crush on the ilusive Black Cuervo, and, later in the seires, marries her. It was shown in the episode, The Mustache Kid, that other creatures are able to use his mystic belt buckle, as shown when Dr. Chipotle Jr. used it to amplify the power of his guacamole creature, giving it cat-like ears, white tufts of hair on the sides of its head, and claw gloves.

Frida Suárez:Frida is Manny's 12-year-old best friend who lives in a residence with her parents and older twin sisters. She is up for anything, even if it gets them in trouble. Frida always wears a pair of red goggles over her blue hair. She will even cheer Manny on if he is doing something wrong (like the laser tattoo maker Manny wanted and stole his dad's money that was for buying guacamole. Frida cheered him on like always.) Her arch rival is Zoe Aves who is secretly "Black Cuervo."Frida loves animals (except dogs and wolves) and is always with Manny at any time. She's a Mexican-American girl too.

Rodolfo Rivera/White Pantera : The Mexican father of Manny Rivera/El Tigre and son of Grandpapi Rivera/Puma Loco. Pantera can refer to a panther or any member of the panthera genus of cats. He is semi-retired but has about as much trouble giving up being White Pantera as his father has giving up being Puma Loco (he never removes his magic boots, even when asleep, and only seems to take his mask off to do laundry). Rodolfo has a love-hate relationship with his father. Despite their differences and Grandpapi's desire to pull Manny over to the dark side, Rodolfo always puts his family first.It seems that even though White Pantera is a hero, he inherited some bad habits from his father, such as when he accidentally locked Manny and Frida in Manny's room with a pizza to be alone with Maria during family dinner night. After Maria divorced him, he never put the pieces back together. La Vaultura, his arch-rival, (who he broke up with in highschool) still has it considerably bad for him, and her daughter's best friend Palia, in the 17th episode, counciled her to win him over, but she ended up humiliateing herself. Notably, Pantera is the only superhero to escape death at the jaws of El Mal Verde. During Sartana's tournament, he dressed himself up as a fake supervillain named "Black Pantera". Even saying he didn't know who White Pantera was and that he came from out of town.

Granpapi Rivera/Puma Loco: The Mexican father of Rodolfo Rivera/White Pantera and grandfather of Manny Rivera/El Tigre who moved in with his son and Grandson to help look after them after Manny's mom left (and because he crashed his evil blimp headquarters into a hamburger stand), Granpapi Rivera is a "friendly" old man who loves his grandson Manny very much. He is also a retired super villain who still enjoys cooking up trouble every now and then, especially if it means getting to spend time with Manny. Back in the old days, Grandpapi was one of the most feared villains who no one could catch (except his son White Pantera, of course). He wants Manny to follow in his footsteps, even encouraging him to do bad things like stealing. Despite the fact he is evil, there are things he won't do, such as betray his family. He always comes through when they're in danger even though it'd be easier for him to pull off crimes without his son in the way.In Puma Licito, It is revealed that Grandpapi actually owns the house he, Rodolfo and Manny live in.

Manny's ancestors NEW

   Original El Tigre or El Tigre 1:The Powerful of them all He, like Manny, couldn't decide whether to be a hero or a villain. The indecision drove him insane, causing him to develop a split personality. It is never reaveled what time period he lived in. He possesses the same powers as Manny, as well as a few new ones, such as a super powerful roar and the ability to extend his claws to long lengths.

   Dark Leopard: Manny's ancestor and the 1st Rivera super villain, he operates a stone mech suit and judging by his appearance, was around in Mesoamerican times. It is unknown if he was the son of the original El Tigre or if it was many generations after El Tigre before other Riveras became super heroes/villains

   Golden Leon: Manny's ancestor and the 1st Rivera superhero, his costume is similar to the clothing of a Conquistador and speaks in Old English and Galician Spanish. He is the son of Dark Leopard, father of the Mighty Cheetar, grandfather of Justice Jaguar, great-grandfather of Puma Loco, great-great grandfather of White Panthera, and Manny's great-great-great grandfather Manny's school was also named after him (Leon Elementary School).

   The Mighty Cheetar: Grandpapi's grandfather, The Justice Jaguar's father, Rodolfo's great-grandfather, and Manny's great-great grandfather. He was a supervillain like his grandson who wore a more primitive steam powered robot suit. The suit was used by Grandpapi in Puma Licito to save Manny and Frida from El Oso, and to protect his supervillain title. He appeared in The Grave Escape when Manny and Frida were transported to the Land of the Dead and he, along with Manny's other relatives, helped stop Sartana. He is known as the "Scourge of the Seven Seas" and speaks with a pirate accent.

   Justice Jaguar: Manny's great-grandfather, Rodolfo's grandfather, Puma Loco's father and is son to the Mighty Cheetar, he dresses in a western style costume and likely lived in the "Old West". He wears a sombrero similar to Puma Loco's. He apparently died attempting the Rivera "Super Macho Blitz" and despite his past differences with his son, they both still miss each other. He once returned from the Land of the Dead to visit Puma Loco and threatened to take him back with him if he didn't change his ways. He learns that it is a Rivera family tradition that if you are a villain, your son must be a hero, and it's the other way around with a hero dad.
