Latinos of the DCU

[Bat-Meal]

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.

I guess I'm the only one who really doesn't have any love for that character. Something about the arc of here overcoming ptsd, and then becoming "Green Lantern" chosen because she has the power to overcome great fear never sat right with me. A little too on the nose for my taste having dealt with lots of military people suffering thorough ptsd, sigh. . . and then yes much like Hawkgirl on JLU she's just the go to lantern when they want to look more woke, but it... always FEEL illegitimate to me at least as long as there are infinite other lanterns just floating around "ON EARTH" no less. D.C. is so weird.

I feel like Jaime and his amazing friends is a book in waiting... that dc is just leaving money on the table with.
Jaime, Firestorm like in the injustice game... add stargirl.

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.

Wholeheartedly agreed .

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.

we have confirmation from Joshua Williamson that August Heart/Godspeed is in fact Latino. I believe this makes him the first latinx speedster in DC.

What about Mas y Menos?

What about Mas y Menos?

Oh yeah, I remember for a hot minute they brought them into the main comics...

[Agent Z]

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.

Havana. The bastard daughter of Amanda Waller’s that worked with Deadshot, Major Disaster and the Sgt Rock imposter in Suicide Squad around 2001.

How many Latinx heroes are popping up in Future State:

Yara, Jessica, Bunker ...is that it?

Yup. This is what I think of DC's weak attempts at including more Latino superheroes.

[Will Evans]

Just curious. Are there Latinos in the families of each of DC’s major franchises? (Not counting civilian supporting characters).

Superman: just Gangbuster I guess
Batman: Renee Montoya
Wonder Woman: Yara Flor
Flash: Godspeed. And I guess Vibe i features in the Tv series.
Green Lantern: Kyle, Jessica
Hawkman: Kendra?
Aquaman: Lorena was. Where is she?
Blue Beetle: Jaime of course
Green Arrow: ??
Atom: well there’s Atomica but she’s a villain.
