I think overlooked characters just mean stuff like Abe was a simple janitor who turns out to be a messiah with magic powers. Munch, the last of his kind who happen to be frog-fish, who's eggs are eaten as caviar.
It's the story of how normal joes become heroes.
Joes = Heroes.
Like Ghostbusters, normal guys, amazing ghost fighters.
So, yeah, overlooked characters are ones that don't seem extroirdinary. I don't think it's ones we've already met, just ones that we wouldn't expect would be a hero.
I mean, how many times have YOU seen a janitor and thought 'Wow, he's superman.'
