Does America need a Black Superman?

Meh

MigsPlusEight

Yes! Finally get my shine back.

I don't know any black dude that would wear tights.

Why would it matter?

Umm no because Superman isn't black?Ken_Masterz

He has the technology to correct that! xaos

Is there anything he *didn't* have in the Silver Age?

Seriously, I want to know.

probably, white superman is getting old

Make a new black superhero, don't replace an old superhero.

They already tried it with catwomen as well.

As long as Superman embodies the traits of the American immigrant, I'm fine with it. If they start throwing degrading black stereotypes at us, I will not appreciate it. I don't think I can stomach the thought of Superman's secret identity being a rap artist instead of a journalist. Speaking of that, isn't it time for Clark to get out of the newspaper business and do Internet reporting?Genetic_Code

He became a TV anchor in the late 70's I thinkxaos

Just to chime in, that's a great comic cover. :)

He is a superhero with an established identity. So, no.

We already have luke cage.

In DC Comic's Final Crisis #7 there's a black Superman that's also the president. 8)

I don't care for superheroes. I wouldn't mind an African-American Sgt Rock (strictly the comics version). One of the figures I respected the most when I was younger was a no-nonsense African-American NCO.

Not that one lol

We already have a black(Half) superman as President. :)

I'm pretty sure Will Smith is close enough. I mean he has saved the world more times than Superman has.

Indeed Halle Berry was probably the only good thing about the film but regardless she wasn't even the first black woman to play Catwoman as the deliciously purrrrrrrrfect Eartha Kitt was one of the actors that portrayed her in the Batman TV series. Since it was the '60s, having a black woman constantly trying to bed Batman was actually quite a progressive TV moment coupled with her personally pleasing predilection for tying up a latex-coated Batgirl as a nice bonus.

Wasn't Steel a black superman?Meta33

It's called eminem

I think we have plenty of Black firsts in America. We need more firsts for other minorities, tbqh.

How about someone create their own unique character who is black?Jd1680a
