There's more to Mexican superheroes than masked wrestlers, as pointed out in this Catalogue of International Superheroes. There are guys like Relampago (not to be confused with Relampago, the superhero from Corpus Christi) and El Hombre Mosca (the man will the remarkable powers of a house fly. Of course, you'll find the classic luchadores, of which La Mujer Murcielago (known here as Batwoman). This Batwoman is not to be confused with her rattier North American counterpart from Jerry Warren's The Wild World of Batwoman. Playing Batwoman in the Mexican version is curvy Maura Monti, who also played a Martian in Santo contra la Invasion de los Marcianos (the poster of which seems to be a blatant copy of Robinson Crusoe on Mars's, for what it's worth).
