Not sure why there needs to be an asian Hulk, but Frank Cho is a phenomenal artist–so at least it will be nice to look at.

Never had any interest in Black Panther–the character was always a glaringly obvious attempt by Marvel to pander to a black audience.

Cyborg’s blackness was never addressed as much of an issue that I can remember (Titans fan from the George Perez era), and I did like the character, but his own series? And why a movie of his own when the Teen Titans live-action series seems like it will never be made?

The comic book fans I knew valued gripping storylines, interesting characters, and exceptional art — pretty much in that order. My half-Korean cousin was a huge Batman fan, and I knew some black Superman and Captain America fans — they didn’t feel compelled to love Power Man or the Black Panther.
