Black Superhero Appreciation

With all the great news coming from Marvel (a Black Panther movie, the return of Brother Voodoo, Sam Wilson getting so much exposure, Storm having her own ongoing etc.) I think it might be nice to have a thread appreciating all the different black superheroes that Marvel has to offer. One of the reasons I started to get into comics was because of the increase diversity it was showing (Mighty Avengers 2013 was my first comic). And I've been so happy ever since! Frankly, my favorite would have to be Eli Bradley (Patriot) and I hope Marvel brings him back very soon. I did some searching, and there wasn't a thread appreciating all of the black heroes in one. (I'm still new to the forum, so I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds).

This is a thread for ALL black superheroes, in every Marvel universe!

Does Sun Girl count?

Does Sun Girl count?

I don't see why not. She looks so cool, I'll have to check out some of the stuff she's in

She's in the New Warriors book (Ending next issue) and was in 3 issues of Superior Spider-Man Team Up. She's Bi-Racial.





She's honestly my favorite part of the New Warriors book.

Sweet!

Speaking of which, did you hear about the Gambit movie they're making? I was kind of hoping they'd make a Storm movie. I mean, out of all the X-men, Storm is the one with one of the biggest pulls. I mean, there are people who don't even know about X-men who've heard of Storm, and with the Marvel, DC, and other studios taking the time to be more inclusive with their franchises, I think Storm might have been a better bet (a film about a woman of color.)

There is so much untapped potential to that character, it's criminal how underused she is.

Same thing with Monica Rambeau and Misty Knight.

Wow, REALLY??

And people say books and decisions like this don't work with trying to get new readers.
