Happy Heroes is an EP by sound collage and experimental musical group Negativland, released in 1998.
Critical reception Memphis Flyer wrote that the EP "delivers more bang for the buck – particularly if you have a wicked sense of humor and high threshold for aural pain." The Rough Guide to Rock called it "more expert sampler anarchy."
