Asians of the DCU

[j9ac9k]

Superman does need his Nightwing and Red Hoo counterpart.

Has Superboy been given a slot somewhere post Rebirth? Makes me wonder if he'll be sidelined a bit until Kenan can get established.

[edit] I was thinking Connor, but I guess Superman's kid will be the new Superboy...

Conner, just like New 52 Superman, is MIA.

Yeah, what's with the weird female:male ratio with Asians in comics? It's only in comics, most popular Asian actors are male. And it has nothing to do with eroticized Asian women since Cassandra Cain and Katana, the most popular Asian DC characters, are very non-sexual. Here's hoping All New Superman paves the way for an interesting character. I voted for Katana, BTW, and I look forward to seeing her in the Suicide Squad film.

In the US? Maybe but that is mostly from old Kung Fu Movies. Purely modern, its hard to list to many either way. Yes, but they are women which presents opportunities to pair them up with a male hero.

Pretty good costume. I'd say it looks just enough like the main Superman costume, but it also stands on its own. Did they design a new logo? It's hard to tell.

Agreed. Looks like an S and Hexagon to me.

Where's Lady Shiva? She'd be my second choice after Cassandra Cain

Looking at Kenan's cover is actually kind of hilarious. Let the poor man eat his noodles. What are you doing Mr Kong?


I wonder if his Justice League will have members of the Great 10 or if his League will be rivals to them. Should be interesting to see unfold.

Yes - I imagine JLC will have August General in Iron or at least someone who embodies the more "collective-minded" ideals of China in contrast to Kenan who's been described as starting out a selfish kid. (which is the opposite of Superman in JLA where he represents the altruistic ideal).

just want to make sure, karate kid is asian, right?

[Jcogginsa]

the poll refers specifically to heroes.

If we're talking about Val Armorr, yes.

Katana. Im excited for Suicide Squad

Oh yeah

[Herowatcher]

Voted for Katana...my favorite of those listed.
Add August General In Iron and Dr. Light II to make my Top 3.

The two young male heroes I'd like to see DC flesh out and develop more are....

Striker Z (Daniel "Danny" Tsang)
Danny's a human battery able to power various gadgets and weapons.



Windshear (James Li)
Not much known about James, but he can fly. Hopefully it will be revealed
that he can generate powerful winds too.

If you want to see an Asian in an ongoing, you should get behind this idea.

Not a fan of Ryan Choi, but I could be a bigger fan of Danyy Tsang or James Li if DC gives them some comic time.
