Asian marvel characters appreciation

[Darth Phoenix]

I find this opinion odd because race is a set of physical traits. You don't have a white soul or a black soul or epincanthic-folds soul. If you have those physical traits, you are that race.

If she had not been seen in a thong fighting ninja's for a decade proubly wouldn't have felt so wrong.or if the real owner of her body had not been discarded after ripping out her Mojo vision implants to death by disease

In the most recent issue of Death of Wolverine (focused on Daken) the issue was AWESOME! Paying huge respect to both his Japanese ancestry and his LGBT status. Such a respectful, moving issue about the death of his father. I look forward to Wolverines, because I'm sure we'll get more of this (can't wait).

I want a filipino mutant. Please!

[Shadowcat]

This list includes Surge and Silk, but left out Karma? I have no words for how wrong this thread is.

Fabio Medina is apparently a Filipino mutant named Goldballs. Heh. Goldballs. Anyway...







So... you can thank Marvel for that.

There's also Triumph Division from Invincible Iron Man comics, but I also found an article pointing out how dumb they were... And they were killed off.

If you look at this page, you'll find a few more, though I don't think all of them are Marvel heroes:

I never particularly liked her, so that's fine with me. *pause* Although, I like her more than I like Surge. Lol.

[ChronoRogue]

I like both, but Karma is wonderful. After Dani, she should be the next break-out NM.

Loooove having at least this tiny bit of Asian American representation at Marvel comics right now. This is a really cute page from "Silk."

[Darkspellmaster]

Let's not forget Radiance from Invader's please! She not only is a well know Japanese Hero, but...also fights monster.

Indeed! :-D

Oh, and something on the other end of the spectrum:

Secret Wars: Master of Kung Fu #1-4 (Haden Blackman and Dalibor Talaji) - on sale May 6, 2016.

This is classified as a "Battleworld" title, which implies that the Battleworld domain of K'un Lun will be sticking around for a while.

Both Shang-Chi and Iron Fist will prominently star in the series. Alternate versions of them, anyway. Along with Alternate versions of many characters like Elektra and Kitty Pryde.

Hummm, interesting. I'm surprised there's been no nod to the marvel manga verse. That had some interesting characters from there.

Bleedingcool is speculating that White Fox will be one of the All-New, All-Different Avengers after Secret Wars.

I'm dying to check out silk as soon as possible! Unfortunately my bank account got hacked twice this week so I'm without a card. I'm terrified by the time I get it I'll love it but then it'll get cancelled

Yeah, I thought there was going to be some Mangaverse content in Secret Wars, but I guess not.

Hmm, I suppose she'd have to be, since they said they were going to add her to the Avengers in the future and the future kind of got cut short thanks to Secret Wars.

Aww. D: Well, maybe just trade-wait it.

Also nice that it's drawn by an Asian-American, so Silk actually looks Asian. And man, Stacey Lee's work is fantastic. It's the main reason - maybe the only reason - I'm pulling the book.

Ooh, I see Marrow in the sketches. Also, Cypher and Rahne. Sweet.

Sorry, but where is Sunfire?

Burn this thread, Shiro. It is unworthy.
