Because he can't just be a Black kid, he's got to have chip on his shoulder. Because we all have chips on are shoulders and are spray-painting angry teens.

As a Black man, when you just alter a pre-existing character's race instead of making a fresh new one, it bothers me. It bothers me that we're treated as just a palette swap, like it's meant to calm down those who want a character with a background like their own. "There, Asterix is black now. Quit whining and keep reading".

Not sure how I feel about this costume. It could have been worse.

Also he's not the same age as Dick or Victor, so we don't get the chance of their awesome friendship happening here.

okay, I checked out that scene where Bobby is told he's gay...
that is not subtle dialogue at all.
like, Jean is just short of brow beating him to admit it.
especially considering Jean would probably be the most tactful in a situation as sensitive as coming out of the closet.

Oh, Wally's back, kinda.

Also, guys we have a DC thread, almost two pages of DC on the Marvel thread is probably too much.
