Whether you should use heros or heroes depends on what you’re talking about.
Heroes is the plural form of the noun hero, meaning “a courageous or admirable person.” Heroes can also be the protagonists in books, films, plays, myths, etc.
Heros is the plural form for a less common definition of “hero,” a type of sandwich from the United States also known as a “sub.”
Heros—always with a capital “H” and an “s” on the end—is also a genus of fish native to South America (e.g., Heros notatus), or a proper name (e.g., Heros of Arles).
Heroes, heros, and Heros are homophones: they sound the same, but have different meanings.
