Spiderman is relatable because he has trouble balancing being a hero and being a person
Maybe Sabra feels relatable to Israelis because her costume elicits feelings of nationalism.
I mean honestly there really aren’t a lot of famous heroes whose costumes reflect the flag of a nation; outside of Captain America no one else comes to mind.
Huh, admittedly I didn’t know that. I primarily read fantastic four, x-men, avengers, gen x, DC stuff, and spider-man; but the marvel universe is admittedly pretty huge.
I had to sift through some real brainrot to find this (there are more), so check out at least the last one. It is, at the very least, interesting, though I think it’s obviously mainly informed by orientalist xenophobia.
I only know about Captain Mexico due to Marvel Zombies. It was some serious edgelord shit, but killing off the important characters allowed others (such as Morbius) to shine.

There are Captain [country]s for many countries, and there was a comic series about the [obviously spoooky] Chinese Avengers
Captain america but instead he’s an evil

I mostly see the other Captains used for jokes, admittedly.
Regarding Chinese Avengers, I think there might actually be multiple. Here is one group:

And another:

Ah, my bad, the group I was thinking of was actually a DC one:
