Yeah element woman is east asian.
There are some new east asian characters in earth 2 as well.
Captain steel and that agent working for that world government type organization.

[mace11]

Some names were mention before in here but will i mention them again and there are ones i think were not mention.

The east asian batgirl is back and there is Kevin Kho(O.M.A.C.).
There is Jessica Cruz(Power Ring) a latino.
There is Grunge a east asian.
The aquaman for the upcoming movies is southeast asian, but he is half asian.

BATISTA is asian but half asian as well and he played drax.
katana IS ASIAN and there are the shazam kids shown in the justice league comics in the new52.
One is asian and the other is latino.
Of course one is black.





Since thread starter wanted to know about asian and latino superheros here is another list.
I posted some other list in a earlier post too this thread.

After looking up element woman I want her to get a solo

[Robotman]

Yeah element woman is east asian.

Captain steel and that agent working for that world government type organization.

The World Army soldier in Earth 2 is Sonia Sato. Pre-Flashpoint she was the second Judo Master and was a member of the JSA.

I hope DC does something with Captain Steel. There really aren't enough Asian male superheroes. Also he's the first Filipino American superhero I can think of.
It makes me sad that DC is already tearing down Earth 2. There was so much more world building that could have been done.

[colonyofcells]

Wildstorm Wetworks Grail is filipino probably bec. the creator of Wetworks is a filipino named Whilce Portacio.

[Sirzechs]

When was it established that Element Woman is asian?

Basically since her creation?

[Sirzechs]

Jessica Cruz is Filipino as well

[PyroTwilight]

Basically since her creation?

Yep. Even before she showed up in the book it was made clear by Geoff Johns that she's Korean.

Though I don't think any in story chat ever said this so I suppose it could be easy to not know. Though it kinda falls into the area of how to say it without it being odd.

"Oh yes that's Element Woman. A Korean-American shapeshifter of elements."

But yeah it's been known since (before) her introduction.

Now if only we saw her get an origin story. I'd love that.

Here are some other asians but south asians and other groups in asia.
Most are not not from dc or marvel below but this shows that others countries have superheros too.
Of course east asian countries have superheros comics,movies and tv shows etc..like one punchman and many others.
Even some african countries and latin american countries.

Sonia Sato looks mixed to me. They do tend to draw her with some color on her.
