Well, /co/? February is almost over. Where’s the representation!?
>>
>>152572502
DC = Dead Coloreds Comics
>>
>>152572502
Who cares? I'm more interested in whether the story is good than what the skin color of the protagonist is.
>>
>>152572502
Fuck Black history month, fuck blm, fuck dei and fuck these brain dead retards
>>
>>152572502
>22 days
I know Miles had an ongoing but isn't that reductive thinking?
If Marvel had a Miles, Storm, or Blade ongoing now would they still get flack for not announcing ANOTHER black ongoing after a month or two solicitations?
>>
>>152572568
yes
>>
>>152572502
So you're the one who's been pushing this on Twitter huh, OP
>>
>>152572568
The reality is twitter isn't real life no matter how much OP and his friends on twitter wishes it were so
>>
>>152572502
All the black people were busy busting a load all over OPs face for being a gigantic faggot and could not become superheroes this month
>>
Black superhero is an oxymoron.
>>
>>152572502

riding away on my stolen bike
>>
>>152572502
DC I get, but with Marvel that's just being pushy as fuck
>>
>>152572502
Don't Storm and Miles have ongoing either now or about to pick back up?
>>
>>152572502
>DC
>Mainline black hero
Fucking who? They spent almost all of nu52 trying to shove Cyborg down our throats, to absolutely no effect. Black Lighting is a C lister at best. Signal is barely a z lister. I'm not even sure black GG even exists anymore. No one has been able to figure out what to do with static in over 20 years. Icon is a bad joke. And steel is quite possibly the most useless character DC has ever conceived. Their only real option is to try and push John, who has basically no chance of carrying a solo book.

Give me a Plastic man with Coole era villains book, Hawkman book, Booster Gold book, Blue Beetle book or Captain Atom book
Give me a Blade book, man thing book, Hercules book.
I don't give a fuck about Miles and his shitty book started a shitty trend in Marvel and also made for Peter be harder to have two ongoing like Batman or Superman
>>
You have to admit, Discrimination Comics is really fun to say
Rolls off the tongue
>>
>>152572681
Miles just ended and we probably aren't getting a new one until after Ultimate Impact is done
Storm only had 5 issues greenlit and would only get more if it sold well (it didn't)
>>
>>152572502
There's Absolute Green Lantern with Jo if that counts.

Wasn't DC bringing up Mr. Terrific earlier? How come there's no further mention after bringing him up a few months ago?
>>
>>152572963
Why? Because he's white
>>
Is there a demographic for a mainline ongoing like that?

Just because you release a product aimed at a certain audience doesn't mean they're going to buy it.
>>
>>152572963
Racist much? Also, why should comics represent people who don't buy them?
>>
>>152572812
AGL is not "mainline" so it doesn't count

>>152572982
Terrific's recent comic was a miniseries
>>
>>152572812
NOOOOO THAT DOESN'T COUNT EVEN THOUGH ABSOLUTE IS LIKE THE ONLY THING PEOPLE CARE ABOUT RIGHT NOW
ALSO WE'RE IGNORING GREEN LANTERN CORPS EVEN THOUGH THAT'S LIKE 90% JOHN

We should pressure them to make them lose 200000 in some dumb and forgetable story
>>
>>152572502
When was the last latino/asian/native mainline ongoing?
>>
>>152573295
Aside from that races history month, idk.
>>
>>152572502
DC have been building up to doing a static shock book, for whatever that's worth. Also what is mainline? Absolute Green Lantern doesn't count?
>>
What about vinicius?
>>
>>152572568
Marvel does a lot of storm miniseries! What even counts as an ongoing at Marvel anyway they can't count to 12, there is no distinction.

Ongoings are overrated anyway.
>>
>>152572982
Mr Terrifics is in Flash, JSA , and wouldn't surprise that a writer stole for a Superman books(Taylor if he was there) or a Terrifics ongoing.
>>
>>152572639
is bluesky
>>
Name a title with a black lead that sold? Ever?

Comics publishers are in the business of making money, especially with the difficult economic times they're in now. They're going to print what they think the public will buy.

That's why you have 50,000 Batman titles.
>>
>>152572963
What's the reason? Hasn't Al humiliated himself enough for these ghouls?
>>
Doesn't DC have a comic about a black woman right now? Or do it not count because Ewing is melanin-deficient?
>>
Black heroes don't sell and black people don't buy comic books.
>>
>>152574001
He raped Venom fans when they where children apparently.
>>
shieeeeeeeeet
>>
>>152572568
I mean, DC has black Catwoman in the absolute line, the black girl green lantern and recently they had a mini of Mr. Terrific. But for Xitter, that doesn't count. So yeah, the goal post would keep moving.
>>
>>152573295
The borefest that is the current Batgirl ongoing with Cass covers the Asian thing. Don't know of the others.
>>
>>152572502
I just wish the is live action Blade would move along already.
>>
>>152574082
The criteria is it has to be an ongoing and it has to be in the mainline DC universe
>>
>>152572688
>No one has been able to figure out what to do with static in over 20 years.
At this point is clear that DC doesn't like the partnership with Milestone comics and that is why there is no serious intent for a push of the line or Static.
>>
>>152572502
Didnt Marvel announced the Black Wonder Man
>>
>>152574707
Isn't it a miniseries?
>>
>>152572502
DC already has an ongoing staring a black girl in Absolute Green Lantern
>>
>>152572502
Why are you a race baiting faggot?
>>
>>152572688
Yeah DC doesn't have any major blacks.
They have obligatory black side characters for each hero. John Henry "Steel" for Superman, the black Green Lanterns, one of the Aqualads, Duke for Batman, Nubia for Wonder Woman, I think one of the Flash Family is black.

Oh wait, I guess there's Mr. Terrific. He's pretty cool.
He's not a mainstay yet, but he's one of the view they could really start pushing without it seeming random or corny.
>>
>>152572502
we are all black when the lights are out
>>
>>152573498
Spawn
Iron Man
Black Panther a few times (not good ones, unfortunately)

Most white heroes don't sell either. It's really just a handful of guys from the 40s and 60s and X-Men. Even characters that used to sell from later than that like Wolverine don't move much anymore. Thor barely holds up a title.
>>
>>152573295
Both comic companies barely have any latino characters.
Like the only hispanic supe I can think of for DC is Jessica Cruz.

Not gonna lie, Discrimination Comics rolls way too good.
>>
>>152575031
Probably better to go on twitter and ask every twitter account posting OP's image, because chances are they're likely to be OP
>>
>>152572502
Doesn't DC have Absolute Green Lantern? Sure it sucks ass but it's a black woman ongoing.
>>
>>152574082
lmai, absolute catwoman is gonna sell10 times what mainline catwoman sells in her best time, these niggas are deluded, main universe means nothing.
>>
>>152572502
When will this companies understand no modern day black person is buying this shit no more, just some progressive white libs pretending to be progressive becasue they think they're helping the movement or some shit. Black people are too busy fucking buying Manga and anime where violent ghetto shit happens and think they're son Goku because they unironically think he's a deadbeat father, get the fuck out of here! Or if theyre doing anything marvel related, theyre jerking off to Marvel Rivials to the white women shaking thier asses and are the reason why we cant have big tit women in media anymore, fuck these people!
>>
>>152576209
What are you even talking about, OP and his buddies on Twitter are the ones calling DC "Discrimination Comics", go pick a fight with them instead
>>
Where's my voluptuous femboy representation

They don't push static because there's pretty much nothing you can do with him besides just retreading the show, which would be VERY hard to replicate now, since he was half superhero half late 90s inner city school PSA. I respect Milestone for what they were trying to do but there's a reason the cartoon is the only thing people remember. There's nothing to the character outside that, you take him out of that context and at best you're just left with another generic teen hero.
