Would have been a close one for me between Katana, Atom and Eugene Choi (under other), but above them, I'm a Cassandra Cain fan through and through.

The show's getting a fourth season. Maybe he'll appear there.

He’ll probably show up, Vibe is another I can see popping up too. Hopefully YJ introduces the Shazamily so we can get Eugene as well

Karate Kid


Have y'all seen the discussion that's going on in the Legion #1 thread? Apparently this depiction of KK has stirred up a lot...

[El_Gato]

Hasn’t Karate Kid always been Asian? Is that what’s upsetting people? Or is it the monk like look?

That's not a monk look, but there's a lot going on there

If by asian you mean race. Then No, it isn't what is upsetting . To put it simply, This is just tokenism. Japanese and Chinese are not the same. Simple.

He seems to have drawn white, originally, but, IIRC, was intended to be biracial (half-Japanese).

But here, he's got some sort of Chinese look going on, because apparently all Asians look alike... Eh. It's been a thousand years. Maybe Chinese styles are uber trendy among Japanese folk by then. It's not like either we have any idea if either country still exists, on the shattered remnants of Earth...
