Naw, seriously. I hear the name around here, but i've never read a book where he's been in it
Well that explains it. I didn't start reading comics until well after 2000 and I don't read many 90 comics because they are terribleDude, Synch was active from '94 to 2000. He's been dead 18 years ( 3x longer than he was alive), and Generation X was as niche as it got. Only the faithful remember Synch.

DC has been backwards like that too many times. The animation effects the books not the other way around. All comes from the same pot I guess but I know the Timm-verse, most prominently his Harley and it went on to the propping up of Miss Martian and to some extent Blue Beetle and others all became hot cause of the cartoons. When the gen-pop thinks about TT, it ain't any of George Perez's work that's for sure.
Beefing up the old home security, huh?You bet yer ass.
New here... I just saw Black Panther, I frickin' loved it, and I gotta say why the hell ain't there more gorgeous black women in comics? I love them so damn much, it makes me so triggered that they're underrated lol.
They're out there. Just gotta search them out, hope they're attatched to a good writer, and pray they aren't in the X-men so they might get a chance to be more than a one-note token.

The poster who said Synch being generic made me think of a wider trend in fiction where writers seem to give the token black dude really underwritten personalities because they don't actually know what to do with them. It's in comics a lot but it's also really prevalent in TV and movies.
In most cases the black guy is suppose to be the ABC After School Special guy or that bridge guy for certain topics.
You want to talk interracial dating-black guy
You want a racism story-black guy
You want a police brutality issue-black guy
You want accused of a crime-black guy
You want dumb jock-black guy
You want platonic best friend to the girl-black guy
You want a rape or disrespecting women storyline-black guy
You want dateless nerd-black guy at times
You want a fatherless kid-black guy
Glee, 90210, 7th Heaven, Riverdale, CSI New York, CSI Crossing Borders & others say hi.
Eric McCommick had to put his foot down on Perception to expand Arjay Smith's background on the show. Suddenly Arjay's guy was adopted by a Jewish family, had a brother, girlfriend & a background in medicine.
Titus Makin Jr seems to live for those roles. We'll see when his new show starts on ABC next year.
Dude, you just listed every role that Jordan Calloway has ever played

'Niche as it got' is a wild exaggeration about Gen X! Ok, it was a spin off title, but it was a pretty popular spin off title, honest...
A lot of that might have been due to Chris Bachalo's artwork -- he's been a consistent draw since at least Shade TCM and his work on the original Sandman books.
Same goes for Bill Seinkiewicz and Arthur Adams with The New Mutants, J. Scott Cambell for Gen 13, Stuart Immonen and Bachalo (again) for Bendis' X-Men books, Humberto Ramos for DV8, Adrian Aphona for Runaways, and Paco Medina for New X-Men.
