Yup. I have different perspective on Blink this is the most close a comic book character has come representing me on a page. Bushmaster from Luke Cage is where I am actually from but the little accurate details with Blink staying with her aunt has been dope for someone who grew up on caribbean island for example I was strangely happy to see Wolverine eating Johnny Cakes which is common thing in Caribbean islands. I get that Blink has been played by two Asian women but I love how they are expendanding on her Bahamian background.
The people upset that she doesn't look the same well that what happens in comics they draw women and men generic characters like Blink, Domino or Copycat you have no clue what is their background. When they expand into live action because artist and writers to didn't flesh out their history just about anyone can play the character so it is fine that Fa Bing and Jamie Chung has played Blink. But Blink has always been from the Bahamas which the people on the island are majority black so it makes sense the character is black. And current Exile writing team and artist have moved away from the generic look and given her clear black features if she was casted now you can pick out real person who has some of same features. Her look didn't exist before this book oh well comic book creators need to do their due diligence in fleshing out characters. Captain America is Irish American this wasn't always case that does nothing to his current look but help to flesh out his backstory some the point being details helps and more details mean you avoid convos like these ones.
I am weirdly taking the I don't like new Blink look comments a little personally. I get it is just people expressing dislike from change of what they are used to but main change is black hair style and her nose which seem to be broader on purpose. So the complains(at least for me) feels like hey something is wrong with black features which is probably not the case. Then thought pop in my head they just give her different hairstyle then she wouldn't look that different but there real issue in black community of straighten hair(and longer) being seen as more desirable over just there natural hair. Anyways enough ramblings on the racial component it is cool to have a character who has purple skin but it is plain as day what race they are because the artist but some effort in.
