Actually we Italians were called the n-word with the white skin by the US citizens and this strips came from the newspaper "The Mascot" of New Orleans, so I can say we were victims of marginalization.
Anyway you have totally missed my point.

There is an huge difference among write a good story and try to write a great one.

Batman's world isn't realistic. It's grounded in psychological realism… In real life, Batman's crusade would be a horrible idea.[…] But in the world Batman inhabits, it not only makes sense, it's absolutely the right thing to do.
I don’t want this to be a big deal here so I’m gonna end it by saying this:
1) No. Italians used to be marginalized but not anymore.
2) I didn’t miss your point. I get that having issues with a change is far more complex than Twitter wants to admit. I’m just saying, not unlike other characters, her race was never a big part of her character.

And I confirm you actually have missed my point, but I agree with you: this question can't be a big deal.

I also assumed Selina was white. But it is subject to interpretations, especially since it is an artistic depiction and not really photo accurate. I could perhaps see her as a light skinned African-American woman
based on her rather ambiguous facial features and short hair.
When do you guys think the 80th issue will be released now? Mid May?

wasn't she in Justice Leagu of Canada or something ?
I take this back. Just rewatch Rises and Hathaway is the definitive Catwoman. Still not a fan of her killing but Hathaway and Nolan really do understand what makes her tick. Cynical yet hopeful. Self-centered yet loving. Loves what she does yet wants a normal life. I haven’t seen the movie in nearly 7 years so I remembered it all wrong.
I would agree that Anne Hathaway is probably the most comic book accurate version of Catwoman in live action so far. I also feel that Camren Bicondova seemed a fairly accurate version of what Selina Kyle might have been like
as a young woman. Julie Newmar was also fairly accurate to the 1950s comic book version of Catwoman as the time the show aired other than the costume. Other than the race bending Eartha Kitt also was reasonably accurate.
Michelle Pfeiffer gave and outstanding performance as a crazy woman wearing a catsuit but bore almost no resemblance to the comic book version of Catwoman. Did she even steal anything?
Catwoman has no race for me but When in Rome says she's Italian iirc
If she’s going to have a past, she prefers it to be multiple choice.
