Renee is my fav by far. I enjoyed her run as The Question, but it'd be good if they gave her a mantle that was hers alone.

Reading List (Super behind but reading them nonetheless):
DC: Currently figuring that out
Marvel: Read above

Other: The Antagonist, Something is Killing the Children, Avatar: TLAB
Manga: My Hero Academia, MHA: Vigilanties, Soul Eater: the Perfect Edition, Berserk, Hunter X Hunter, Witch Hat Atelier, Kaiju No. 8
Seems like WB wants a Latina for the role of Cyclone (figures since Eiza Gonzalez was the front runner for Hawkgirl until the character was cut).
Basically names that have come up include Isabela Moner (Peruvian), Leslie Grace (Dominican), Rachel Zegler (Colombian) and Alexa Demie (Mexican).
Some of the best sellers of recent years have been YA books and ongoing series about young superheroes. The Beast Boy and Raven books and of course Marvel has Miss Marvel. This has also bleed into other media as young heroes seem to be huge sellers. The fastest growing demographic in the US is the Hispanic population. Basically, DC is leaving money on the table by not utilizing Blue Beetle to his fullest potential.
it's funny, they had a latina pop up as a wind manipulator on Black Lightning a while ago. I remember people speculating she could be that universe's Cyclone, now they may be casting actual Cyclone as a Latina. Full circle! I'm really interested to see how the JSA actually look like.
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
"power does not corrupt, power always reveals."
I need some help remembering a character's name. She is afro-latino, had a familial connection to Amanda Waller and was in one of DC's government agencies. I only remember seeing her on the DC wiki but I can't remember her name.
