I was trying to think of a team of heroes from before Superman and Batman. Heck, before The Shadow.
Zorro
Robin Hood
The Scarlet Pimpernel
The Three Muskateers
Have I missed any?

Nope, those are all that come to mind, though I personally would add King Arthur to that list, but sometimes it depends.hmmm, The Three Musketeers...AND D'Artagnan :D , who can forget him?! Why this question about earlier heroes?

How bout Tarzan, lord of the apes, and Sherlock Holmes, who was in no way affiliated with apes.

How about Hercules, along with many other characters from various mythologies that I won't even try to list. Also, there are Biblical ones such as Samson and David. You could even count guys like Pecos Bill and Paul Bunyan, I think.

Has anybody mentioned Erik the Viking yet?
And there were quite a few heroes among Viking lore.
