Ameriko
Ameriko is a fictional character created by the American artist and writer Robert Crumb. He first appeared in Crumb's comic book "Zap Comix #1" in 1969. Ameriko is a superhero who embodies the spirit of American patriotism and freedom. He is often depicted as a muscular, bald man with a red, white, and blue costume, reminiscent of the American flag. Ameriko's powers are not explicitly defined in the comics, but he is often shown using his strength and agility to fight against various villains, often of foreign origin. Crumb's portrayal of Ameriko is often seen as a commentary on American foreign policy and the Cold War era. Despite his heroic persona, Ameriko is also depicted as a somewhat naive and simplistic character, often making poor decisions and facing defeat. Crumb's depiction of Ameriko has been influential in the development of the superhero genre, particularly in its exploration of the political and social context of superheroes.
