10* The titular team from the ComicBook/{{Millarworld}} comic ''ComicBook/TheAmbassadors'' is founded by a South Korean tech genius who creates the technology that gives members their power and plans to create a team for the whole world with one member per country. Over the course of the book, the other members' countries come to include India, France and Australia, among others.
11* The Roman Legion which Asterix and Obelix join in ''Comicbook/{{Asterix}} and Legionary'' also includes Neveratalos (Greek, by Zeus!), Selectivemploymentax (Briton, I say, wot), Hemispheric the Goth, Gastronomix of Belgium, and Ptenisnet, a confused Egyptian.
12* The Apollo Eleven of ''ComicBook/AstroCity'' was originally a team of ten astronauts from various nations tasked with establishing an international Moon base. However, they made contact with extraterrestrials who transformed their bodies and returned them to Earth as their emissaries. They are accompanied by L.G.M., one of the aliens.
13* ''Action Force: International Heroes'', aka the UK version of ''Franchise/GIJoe'', with the characters given more varied countries of origin. Flint (UK) is the leader and other members include Lady Jaye (Ireland), Footlose (Scotland), Beach Head (New Zealand), Airtight (West Germany) etc. Some characters (such as Snake-Eyes and Scarlett) were said to be visiting London from Action Force's US branch ... which was eventually retconned to be called G.I. Joe.
14* The modern incarnation of the ''Green Team'' had Commodore Murphy (British), JP Houston (American; Texan), Cecilia Sunbeam (American; Californian), and Prince Mohammed Qahtanii (from some [[{{Qurac}} fake Middle-Eastern country]]).
15* The latest incarnation of Creator/ImageComics' ''Guardians of the Globe'' features Bulletproof, Black Samson, Knockout, and Brit (American), Kid Thor (Canadian), the Yeti (Nepalese), Kaboomerang (Australian), Outrun (South African), El Chupacabra (Mexican), Best Tiger (Chinese), Cast Iron (From an unspecified former Yugoslav state), Pegasus (Russian), Japandroid (Japanese), Le Bruiser (French), and Shapesmith (Martian). Recruiting heroes from all over the world was a deliberate move on team coordinator Cecil's part -- they're guarding the ''globe'', and everyone should have a part in it.
16* The ''ComicBook/HandOfTheMorningstar'' has Titan (American), Avatar (Indian), Shango (West African), Kwan Yin (Chinese), and Kami (South American).
17* In the Gold Key feature ''Comicbook/JetDream'', Jet's [[GenderFlip all-female]] Comicbook/{{Blackhawk}} [[{{Expy}} Expy Squadron]] consisted of: Jet Dream and Cookie Jarr (presumed American); Petite (France); Marlene (UsefulNotes/WestGermany); and Ting-a-Ling (unspecified Polynesian island).
18* ''ComicBook/PathfinderWorldscape'' has heroes from different dimensions and timelines teaming up to escape from the titular extradimensional realm, being comprised of John Carter and Thun'da (Americans), Tarzan (a Britishman raised in Africa), Red Sonja (a Hyrkanian), Tars Tarkas (Green Martian from Thark), Valeros (Andoran), Seoni (Varisian) and Kyra (Qadiran). The last four are not even from Earth, while Sonja belongs to an alternate version of past Earth where her country is analoguous to Russia or Mongolia.
19* The comic book Comicbook/{{Smite}} focuses on this even more than the [[VideoGame/{{Smite}} game]].
20* The original ''ComicBook/{{Stormwatch}}'' team consisted of Battalion (American), Fuji (Japanese), Hellstrike (Irish), Winter (Russian), and Diva (Italian). They were joined in short order by Flashpoint (Australian), Sunburst (Swedish), Nautika (not human, origin unspecified), Flint (Kenyan), and three additional Americans in Synergy, Cannon, and Fahrenheit. One of the team's names in development was "Multinational Force", with the designs of the original team members having [[WearingAFlagOnYourHead their nations' flags painted on their faces]]. Fuji's design was notably unchanged from this phase.
21** Flint was introduced as part of a short-lived "new" Stormwatch team consisting of herself, the Canadian Blademaster, the Tibetan Swift, and the Native American Comanche.
22* The members of ''ComicBook/StrikeforceMorituri'' are drawn from different backgrounds, nations, and cultures. Justified as humanity is united in fighting back against alien PlanetLooters, and the Morituri process only works for a select few members of the population.
23* In the 2016 ''Xena: Warrior Princess'' mini-series, Xena and Gabrielle, in issue #2, the pair are surrounded by a group of female warriors known as Harpies. It's not necessarily a multinational team, so much as a multi-tribal/ethnic team: we have a Mongolian archer (Batbayar), Hun swordswoman Meryem and shaman Seyman, shield-maiden Ingrid (implied to be North European), Arab horsewomen Basira and daughter Fahima, Greek exile Anthousa, Asian spear-warrior Jiao from Ancient China, and Chilapa, queen of the Amazons.
