FUCKING BASED AND FATHER PILLED. There was never a more respectable black man on the silver screen. He deserves it. They should have made him the brother who got the dragon on HotD

So a British Empire Citizen. He's double British compared to classic Brit Brits

I remember he was voiced by a black actor in the beloved early 00s toon, plus he was probably my fav character, but is jon jonzz really supposed to be black coded

Another downgrade in the DCU. Gunn keeps taking L's while Snyder keeps looking better.
>>
Only people with shit-taste are interested in the crap Pedro Gunn is currently making with DC. I hope that rumor about him getting fired if WB gets bought is true.

It is kinda strange to be nominated for a show that not only was cancelled, but also purged from HBO servers, so only way to watch it is via piracy.
And while I really liked the show and character of Father, considering that this is BAFTA, the nomination only makes sense because of his race.

What people? Also what was this faggot doing during Zod, Doomsday and Steppenwolf? Shytder taking another massive L.

His game was a total disaster and it's good to see him humbled and crawling back to an even lower profession: acting.

That’s more of an HBO issue than anything. The KIKE in charge of WB has removed a bunch of their own shows from their services, regardless of the accolades. I was going to catch up on Westworld after forgetting about it for a few years and noticed they’d completely removed it from the platform

it is ok, I was expecting one of the blacks from GotG, Chukwudi Iwuji or Digimon Hounsou.

His human form was white originally. As an alien shapeshifter, there's less of a stigma about racewashing. But yes, they did turn Martian Manhunter black.

The problem with that is now they always have to have one scene with Manhunter in human form to show audiences that he's a black character even if it has no relevance or purpose to the story.
>>

whatever Snyder wants him to do, you fucking jeet. Definitely more than Batman

Don't fret, friendo. Gunn will make him do everything Snyder couldn't.

He is intangible psychic capable of superspeed, with strength comparable to Wonder Woman, and she was able to cut of Doomsday limb with a single swing.

Gunn will be out after the merger and then he can help Snyder finish his Rebel Moon lmaoooo

>>215476899
Weird isn't it. I am of course aware of mandatory quotas for blacks in movies, but at some point in past five years productions were flooded with Ungʻubatas Alulu'mog°hibas%, instead of American soumding blacks.
Unless this is the same peak cringe as when all blacks started to rename themselves from George Williams to Tupac Mohammed Ali.

he's usually white when he's larping as a human though he was a nigger during young justice.

tons he's as powerful as superman.

Good casting, ain't gone lie

>that dude is suppose to be on par with Super on power level
Color me surprised when I found out. J'onn is a fucking beast, yet chill as fuck. Imagine super villains astonishment when they see the green boy approaching thinking they won the day because Superman isn't available, then J'onn starts his blitzkrieg by whooping everyone's ass

You say this only because you like the actor due to Raised by Wolves. Say I'm lying, I dare you

>>215476830
Manhunter outside of Supergirl rarely ever takes human form. It was an entire story arc in the comics how Manhunter had to step back from humanity to find himself. What he found was someone proud to be a Martian and stay in Martian form.

When there are battles, Manhunter turns into everything from an Alien Dragon to a Sea Monster. What he doesn't turn into, is a nigger. Theaters are dying thanks to wokeness. And you celebrate that? ...you don't belong here.

This nigga deserves a career. Now that Mr. Milchick is memed to death people need a new token black guy to hype, and honestly I don't mind. He was the best part of that retarded show.

Originally he larped as a white detective who had died, so he took over the identity. Later it was chaged to a black man, but it's all a sham obviously since he's not human. Even his "real" look isn't actually his real look, the natural Martian form looks more alien than the green superhero form he typically shapeshifts into.

Isn't their original looks basically xeno-looking planet destroyer walking nukes? I remember reading something along these lines, then they got nerfed by the green lantern little goblins from Oa and became these green dudes

Akshually it was white and he became black later on. But he was always voiced by a black guy, funnily enough.
>>

It has no race. It's literally the Thing larping as a human.

>>215477736
Thanks. Found the name through that image. Burning Martians. Able to tackle the entire JLA. kek Such a fucking bullshit. I wonder if Batman will ever display a counter to that beyond prayers.

He's great at playing clearly non-human yet still endearing, but of course in this timeline we would only get such kino casting now that the DCU is already doomed
>>215477784
They kind of managed to make him look like a white version of the voice actor
>>
>>215477804
He*
J'jonn had a wife and kids
>>
>>215476400
The promo stuff he did for that made me realise he's an autistic incel which is probably why /tv/ likes him.
>>
>>215477826
Martians are the most OP species, even more so than Kryptonians, so they had to be given an arbitrary weakness to one of the most common elements. Batman himself has beaten MM by setting him on fire.
>>
>>215477865
I mean yeah, but that's for normal J'onn/martians, no? The burning version is literally burning, why would Batman use fire? kek
>>
>>215477826
always was the case
dc just doesn't know what to do with him so a lot of the time he's conveniently unavailable for missions
>>
>>215477901
>dc just doesn't know what to do with him
A bunch of fucking hacks, the whole lot of them. J'onn is cool as hell. How hard can it be to find a good writer to put the dude to shine? He has the powers, the origin and drama, he's chill, he could be some sort of Superman learning to navigate human affairs, trying his best to understand people. There's plenty of stories to do with him.
>>
>>215477901
>>215477974
That is very often the case with Flash, you need good writer to come up with scenarios where he won't utterly dominate every situation he is in, suitable villains that counter his skillset. It is a mark of a hack when theyhave to come up with excuses when he is not available or being incapable of participating, something Snyder also failed at, multiple times.
Ironically they did okay in that disasterous Flash movie, where Flash was able to deal even with Kryptonians, except for Zod, no matter how hard he tried.

>>215476548
In the comics Superman has stated that MM is the only person he fears in a straight up fight. He can do everything to those guys that Supes did, and more.
>>
>>215477498
He had his own comic where he played a black detective. Keep coping but do it back in your echo chamber.

They made him (his alter ego) black in the 80s in the name of diversity.
