DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU #22 (Mar 1976)

Excerpt:
1) Hector Ayala (White Tiger; El Tigre Blanco), 1975
The first superhero of Latinx descent in Marvel’s history, Hector Ayala
(aka White Tiger), appeared in the mid-’70s in Deadly Hands of Kungfu
issue #19. Created by George Perez and Bill Mantlo, Ayala was born in
San Juan, Puerto Rico, and attended Empire State University in New York
(where Peter Parker went!). As a student, he discovered the tiger
amulets thrown out by the Sons of the Tigers, who were three martial
arts students. His strength increased and he gained superhuman fighting
skills when he wore all three amulets at the same time. As a superhero,
Ayala fought alongside Spider-Man and Daredevil. Although he was
eventually killed off, members of his family assumed the role of the
next White Tiger.

Somewhat George Perez-related, but Thomas Delfi wants to create "Largest Latino Comic Expo on the East Coast" convention called Nerdtino Expo.
It should be noted that Perez is American-born, but Puerto Rican descent, and co-created White Tiger, a Puerto Rican hero (the first PR hero?)

Jon Huertas Explains Why He Made ‘White Tiger’

Jon Huertas Explains Why He Made ‘White Tiger’
Umberto Gonzalez | December 29, 2016 @ 1:42 PM
“This is Us” actor tells TheWrap he
turned to comic books for guidance when he was growing up, learning to
“always fight for the little guy”
Actor Jon Huertas’ inspiration in making the self-financed “White
Tiger,” based on the Marvel character, was simple — he wanted to see a
superhero he could relate to.
White Tiger, created by Bill Mantlo and George Pérez, was the first
Puerto Rican superhero in the history of comics, and Marvel’s first
superhero of Hispanic descent. Growing up without a father figure,
Huertas looked to film, television and comic books for guidance.
(excerpt)
“I saw heroes like that and it made me want to be more like that than
the guy slinging dope on the corner or the guy in a gang,” the “This is
Us” actor said. “I wanted to be a good guy and make great decisions and
be a strong male figure in my own life because of that.”
Actor Jon Huertas wants Marvel to make a White Tiger movie

Actor Jon Huertas wants Marvel to make a White Tiger movie, so he made a short film
by Ian Casselberry
(excerpt)
... actor Jon Huertas wants to see more Latino representation in Marvel’s on-screen world and is trying to do something about that.
Huertas is perhaps best known for playing Det. Esposito on Castle and
currently plays the unpopular Miguel on NBC’s This Is Us.... But he’d
also love to play a Marvel crimefighter. With writer Bill Mantlo and
illustrator George Perez, the publisher created the first Puerto Rican
comic book superhero with White Tiger in the 1970s to help capitalize on the martial arts craze at the time.
The White Tiger was Hector Ayala, a Puerto Rican college student who
discovered a mystical amulet that gave him superhuman abilities. As one
does when suddenly endowed with increased strength, speed and fighting
ability, Ayala decided to become a costumed hero to fight crime in his
neighborhood. Eventually, he crossed paths with Spider-Man in Marvel
Comics, which gave him some cult popularity.
Huertas obviously developed some affection for the White Tiger while
growing up and thinks he’s the sort of superhero property that Marvel
should be developing now.

WHITE TIGER (1976)
|
|
Angela Del Toro's the niece of the original White Tiger, Hector Ayla. I remember first seein' the White Tiger in Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #20.
The lead story in Deadly Hands was always Shang Chi or Iron Fist, but
the second series, The Sons of the Tiger, were by a couple of newcomers
called Bill Mantlo and George Perez. I knew these boys were destined for
greatness, especially Perez, whose artistic skills grew with each
story. The Sons of the Tiger were a trio of kung fu fighters, each
empowered by a Asian amulet. In Deadly Hands #19, they had a falling out
and threw the amulets in the trash. Hector picked 'em up and was
transformed into the mysterious White Tiger, probably the first Chicano
superhero in the Marvel Universe. Perez had such a great enthusiasm for
this character, as you can see in the splash page above, where he
painstakingly drew a New York City skyline forming the logo (in Deadly Hands #21).
