Asians of the DCU

[mace11]

Anyway Knowing dc,the new asian batman of china might steal the show from new superman.
The asian shazam kid and Captain steel will be shown more then are now.Captain steel is already being shown abit more now in the earth 2 society comic.

Damian Wayne is euro-arabic-asian asian.

By the way i considered him racially asian.
That means he really is dc's biggest asian superhero in comics.

His mother of course is Talia al Ghul and her mother is asian and her father has some east asian background.

Talia al Ghul is in arrow show and was shown in the legends of tomorrow show.

Talia al Ghul



Birth of the Demon

The graphic novel Batman: Birth of the Demon (1992) by Dennis O'Neil explains how her father met her mother at Woodstock and that she was of mixed Chinese and Arab descent. Talia's mother later dies of a drug overdose in this story.

She is racially east asian.

Ra's al Ghul.
Her father is arab but has some form east asian in his background.
Ra's al Ghul

As told in Birth of the Demon, Ra's al Ghul was born over 600 years before his first appearance in Batman comics, to a tribe of nomads in a desert somewhere in Arabia, near a city whose inhabitants' ancestors had journeyed to the Arabian Peninsula from China. Developing an interest in the sciences at an early age, Ra's abandoned his tribe to live in the city where he pursued life as a researcher. He subsequently became a physician and married a woman named Sora.

If we can include villains too, Tao Jones of HELIX comes to mind.

DC is severely lacking of asian superheroes.

Added info above.

I am not sure if that is Atom (Ryan Choi) in the dc rebirth pic or not above,but he will be showing up anyway in dc rebirth upcoming books.
He was shown in the DC UNIVERSE: REBIRTH #1.

[mace11]

I almost forgot,deathstroke's euro-asian asian daughter Rose Wilson(Ravager) will be in rebirth too.
She was shown in the new52 and dcyou as well.
The Great Ten was shown in dcyou recently.

So many cool (and seriously underused) characters in this thread.

I'm going to throw my hat in with Lady Shiva who I first met and liked in the classic Question series where she is far less of a villain than in Batman.

[Atlanta96]

Nice to see that so many of the characters listed here are actually being used in the Rebirth books. Cass Cain, Katana, Emiko, Ryan Choi, Damian Wayne. New Superman and Damian even have starring roles. DC is a lot more committed to diversity than some people give them credit for.
