    Is there any pics where she is just human?because i have not seen any yet.
    Maybe she is not black,so i could be wrong.
    Maybe someone could post some pics when has a completely human form but looking at this pic she looks black.


    Note-
    By the way i looked her up to see what her Ethnicity and Nationality is.

    you know she can be black and latino, right? she's likely meant to be afro-latino like Kendra and Fuerza
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    oh my bad, I missed that post. your post I was replying to was a little confusing to read, I thought you were debating whether she was black or latino.

    are there any books that you feel I should include? what about the books on the list? are there any you feel deserve more love or, conversely, don't deserve to be considered a "must-read"?

    (2011) Static Shock #1-8
    This is a lesson on what NOT to do with a book. And allow UNFANS and gatekeepers to be justified in someone not getting a shot.
    It's also a lesson on here is why cries of you need black folks working doesn't always work out.

    A black editor let the artist with ZERO writing skills take over the book from a Milestone veteran.
    Said artist blamed the fans for not supporting the badly done book.

    A book that saw a cloned sister-with ZERO explanation.
    Static needs a mentor?? Static who made all his stuff with ZERO help.
    The family in Harlem.
    Static gets an arm cut off.
    Issue 6-the poster child for a badly edited book.

    (2011) The Fury of Firestorm #0-20
    For two folks who did NOT want to do the book Gail & YES Ethan did some right for Jason. Jason who later got tossed in the back for Ronnie under other writers. I would say the first volume for Jason.

    I would add 1996 Teen Titans (1-14)-the only book Hotspot was not death fodder for a point less story.

    JSA Classified 28 Jakeem THunder
    JSA 29 Jakeem cusses out Star Girl and Joker
    There is another one but I don't have it logged in my collection. I think it's issue 32. He meets his Dad and little brother.

    JSA Classified 29-31 for Mr Terrific

    Justice League Adventures 19-John Stewart shows Charlie you don't need a ring to be a hero.

    Mr Miracle vol 2 22-26-Shilo Norman takes over

    Seven Soldiers Mr Miracle-Shilo leads again

    Seven Soldiers Guardian-not Mal but the other black guy

    Batman The Hill- the originally set to be a 5 part mini turned one issue book by Priest. Red Hood is heading there and lets see if he gets punked by black folks like Batman was.

    We Are Robin. While it was ensemble, it was also functionally Duke-led. And it is definitely a must-read.


    And man, do I miss "(2011) The Fury of Firestorm #0-20"! This was before they retooled it and wasted the whole Firestorm Protocols set-up they had built, making Ronnie the "default" and only Firestorm and making Jason Ronnie's little "head-buddy" sidekick. And that's before the Legends of Tomorrow story just threw the Jason Rusch the writer actively wimpified under the bus. The so-called creator of Ronnie's Firestorm at that.

    But before that, everything was brilliantly done. Jason was so boss; I absolutely loved him. Like, it is hard to put in words everything they did right by Jason in those issues. Perfect, peak Jason Rusch there. And frankly, Ronnie had to have been the most deep and introspective he had ever truly been during that time, too.

    You sure? "Nommo" is the name for ancestral spirits in Dogon religion and Balewa is a Nigerian surname. Nothing about his name suggest he is South African.

    Tell that to DC's writers. His prime earth incarnation is South African on the wiki.
