He took on the new superhero Hancock, an alcoholic that needed a white man to fix him, only to reveal he was in love with his white wife, who he became weak when he got close to her.
How come Batman can't be black?

They don't do jack shyt with Cyborg in Justice League, he's a straight up Token in that book. When you really think about it he's just a glorified Chauffeur and Bat-computer. He got way more character development when he was a Titan. That nikka is just there.
The crazy thing is you'll see white DC fanboys try and argue that Cyborg has been made into a major character in DC comics. When people point out how shytty DC is a treating black characters they're quick to say "Well, Cyborg has been given a huge push and is a major player now".

A black captain america...people like to pretend race don't matter but how would y'all really feel about them doing tuskegee style experiments on a black man to make him a "super soldier" and defending America
...takes on a whole new disgusting or c00nish context.
I can't tell if you're joking or not, but they DID actually do a story about a Black Captain America that was inspired by the Tuskegee experiments.

damn I really appreciate the heat being dropped in this threada lot of knowledge. a lot of gems.
I personally don't see how you can raise demand if future generations are focused on sports games and fps only. I mean @A Man Called Hawk , if you were to run a poll of this forum, how many people do you think can name more than 2 black comic book characters? And we (those of us that use the internet religiously) are the most well versed folks when it comes to entertainment. So imagine how ignorant the general population is.
We should be trying to figure out how to ignite curiosity in younger kids.
Will Smith was offered Superman (this was after Nic Cage walked away from the project in the late 90s) but turned it down because he knew it was fukking stupid for Superman to be played by a black guy.
You might be able to get away with it using some second or third string superhero (like Nick Fury, who was based on Sam L. Jackson in the Ultimate Universe anyway) but Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, etc. are too recognizable to do this to. If a studio did it, they'd only be doing it for controversy anyway and it would more than likely backfire.

"Truth: Red White & Black" is actually one of the better comic book stories written during the past decade.
It wasn't some happy go lucky tale of about a black man who became Captain America. It was a story about how the United States Government exploited and abused a group of black soldiers and how they covered it up from the public. Best way I can describe is a cross between Captain America, Rosewood, and Schindlers List.
It's a comic book mini series that I HIGHLY recommend, but unfortunately the book is out of print.
When it debuted white fanboys were on their typical bullshyt, but then reviewers started reading the book and had to recant because it was actually a great story. It didn't sell all that well because many white readers refused to give the book a chance.
*edit*
The comic also has one of my all time favorite splash pages. I'm not going to post in here for fear of spoiling for those who haven't read it but it's a pretty powerful image by the time you get to that point of the story.
I can't recommend it enough, if you can find it online you should read it.
