Black characters all need more love on X-offices
He's a straight-haired African who turns blue when he uses his powers. It's a toss up. It's almost like whoever created him didn't want readers to think of Maggot as black.
Anyways...on the diversity front, I miss Greystone, Fixx, and Archer. I believe that Greystone was Maori. There aren't that many Polynesian mutants.
Honestly it's disgusting that Frenzy isn't in this!!! This is completely her premise!
Frenzy, WildChild, and Empath??? Total sex.
Yep. Similar with Darwin. He may not have been created as a Black Hispanic (or Latino) man, but when someone did establish him as black, they screwed up. lol Because now the character is very racist.
Overall, the X-Office could use some improvement with the minority representation.
That means getting backbone and stop letting youtube trolls who don't buy or support comics tell you what to do.
Yes it's a HUGE sign that once all those nasty POC lead books were gone and marginalizing various POC along the way (hi Storm), books like Immortal Hulk & even Carol Danvers improved in sales, reviews and sudden you could talk about marvel without threads being derailed.
The trolls vanished.
Nobody noticed those trolls never went after all the OTHER companies with POC as leads? Some that are doing what those trolls claimed Marvel did-despite the fact they never red them.
A book called Kick Azz with a black woman as the lead will have more solo issues than any black female lead book between the big two not named Moon Girl. Who will NOT have her movie or tv show.
A book starring a black guy called Rivers of London is on it's 7th trade. Miles, Panther & Cage can boast more.
Why does it seem like Marvel would pander to trolls who don't support them? Black Panther & Miles opened the door for minority representation.
I could careless about a 50 issue Synch run-give me 6 good issues and call it a day.
Stop overexposing guys like Emma & Logan-because all their books do are pack BINS in the long run. Emma need one GREAT book not 5 mediocre ones.
Because folks are noting the lack of minorities in meaningful roles. Don't have them go to Image or vault to get it.
If you look at my posts, I have never just said straight Black men need to be represented. Where is that in what I said... I more than understand that queer black, non binary Black and Black women are not also not represented. I merely stated and focused in on the issue of Black Male representation within X men.
Furthermore, I always in addition to asking for Synch, have always wanted Monet, Tempo, Sway, Risque, Prodigy, Warpath, Karma , Shola, Hub, Neal Sharra, Hijack and many other characters of color to be featured in the books.However sometimes honing in on one issues gives you the ability to connect it to larger structural and systematic issues.
