Once Upon A Time The Super Heroes (1 of 10)

I'd forgotten how crap those Superman films were.

i realize that your right for the most part, but a lot of these comics were created in what- the earlier half of the 20th century, and you know how it was back then. Most of the main supervillians that superheroes fight are white too, lex luther, the joker, two face, magneto, etc. I'm not trying to disprove you, just putting out observations.
But yes, the superheroes that are black are usually background characters or second grade.
And asians don't have any superheroes, (that i know of)

new york has one of the worst reputations for crime,so it makes sense..

but there are a couple of groups that aren't in new york.

they all take place in mostly new york.wtf!!!!!!

Thanks for pointing out that over the past 30 years , there has been about 7 or 8 brown skinned (non-white) "heroes". Most of them are B-C and D grade characters. Ask your six year old ,What are dark skinned ppl in your comics and novels? They will tell you the "code". I watched video and could not help but notice Its an all white presentation and representation of the the heroic Ideal. Just an observation not an accusation.

sha-F**king -zam in ya face

What about Luke Cage, Blade, War Machine, Bishop, Black Panther, A version of Captain America, Storm and The Falcon at Marvel comics. The new Green Lantern, Steel, Static Shock, and Cyborg.
I'm not saying that there is a huge portion out there but the creators do try and make things that will make the world a better place by giving good black role models. . And on the superheros only saving white ppl there was a time when Superman was accused of being racist in the 70s for just that.

alex ross is the 2nd greatest artist eveh

"Everythings code." We make the good guy (white) Jaw, good teeth, straight hair, and the bad guys (Black or darkly hued) ugly, masked.
Interesting.
All the Big Superheroes are white, and created to save white ppl. ever see them save a black lady or call one mam. no you havnt.
My six year olds friend , said he was the good guy ,caus hes white , thats the way it is in all the comics, and my son will always be the "bad man". SIX !!! we understand the code very well.

I make ALL hero's and super hero's look like uber no0bz *yawns*

WTF? Did YOU know that Alex Ross was bald?

THANK YOU JACK 'KING' KIRBY, the TRUE CREATOR of Marvel Comics. Without Jack there would surely be no Marvel movies OR COMICS and it is professed by people like FRANK MILLER that there would be no DC movies either. Jack co-created X-men, Fantastic 4, Black Panther, Iron Man, Silver Surfer and Galactus, Thor, Spider-man(ITZ TRUE!), Ant-man and Wasp, Magneto, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, Darkseid(for DC), Machine Man, The Sandman(DC and Marvel), Medusa, CAPTAIN AMERICA and on and on! KIRBY IS THE KING!!!
