[COLOR="#FF0000"]"Yep! Oh, but then it was just Jax."[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#0000FF"]"Ohhhh, right."[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]"And Kendra was only attracted to white guys."[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#0000FF"]"True that. So anyway, Mari was great, just great. But then we brought in Wally, so she had to go."[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]"Rule of two, my brother. The Sith can't break it, so neither can the CW."[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#0000FF"]"What's true is true. Shame Wally had to go."[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]"Wally [I]did have to go.[/I] I'm heartbroken, I really am. Now there's none of them!"[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#0000FF"]"Yep! None of them. Think we could bring in Hawk and Dove?"[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]"Hawk and Dove? On [I]Legends?[/I] That would be legendary!"[/COLOR]

Arrow, whitest of the Arrowverse shows had Diggle from the beginning as co-lead and eventually added Curtis.
Flash always had Joe and Iris, and then added Wally.
Supergirl has always had James Olsen and the Martian Manhunter.
Legends had Jax and Kendra, and then had Jax and Vixen.
Oh, and hen there was Black Lightning, which while not part of the same universe is still a Berlanti show.

Tongue in cheek, Carabas!
Hey, have you guys heard of the SCA? [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCA_armoured_combat]The Society of Creative Anachronisms?[/url] They're an international organization that does (officiated) armored combat sports. Jousting, dueling, and army unit clashes. They're ridiculous and pretty entertaining, and they're getting bigger every year. (If you're a big strong guy who wants to get his Game of Thrones on, you should definitely try this.)
[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkDDBL7jNew]Video describing the sport.[/url]
Anyway, I'm only bringing them up because we've got WAKANDA represented there!
This dude is legitimately competing in SCA events as a Black Knight of Wakanda and I'm insanely hyped just thinking about it.

So question; were Trini and Aisha from Power Rangers the first female Asian American and female African American superheroes on US live action tv?

Yet Blade, Spawn & Black Panther can boast that as the MAIN LEAD of their own live action movie and cartoon shows and own comic book.
So Cyborg is still on the outside.

Funny thing about the Martians on Supergirl. They're all black. Not just J'onn and his dad, but M'gann, Till'all, the other white Martians, all black. I like the martians, but I didnt know to feel about it.
