History: Amigo Fantastico is a popular Mexican superhero who got his start on the luchadore circuit, and his costume is still dominated by spandex fighting tights and a brilliant luchador mask in the colors of the Mexican flag. He is on the tall side, powerfully built, and his face has never been shown in public. Several Mexican gangs have contracts out on him; no one has tried to collect. “The Amigo”, as he is sometimes known, also has done fighting in the SMA in the United States. While not a sworn law officer in Mexico, he is often called on to aid in important law enforcement operations, where his ability to stop a fight before it starts has proven valuable.
He has recently branched out into telenovelas, still in his AF! persona.
