I agree. Some characters have done well. The Spiderverse is one such example. Creating new characters does way more to be progressive than just gender/race swapping.

Or is this just a media buzz leak where he's actually gonna turn around and play a superhero who was already black or so far off the grid that changing his race won't matter?</quote> It seems it's like whatever they want at this point. Batman with Pattinson will have a black Gordan, however, it will have the same Alfred from BvS and JL. JL had Simmons as Gordan. Weird shit. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why not just make new great characters? "Here's Superman but black now, heres ghostbusters but they're chicks now, here's Jesus but he's a white Italian for some reason now." I just don't get it. People get even more mad when new characters of different races or sexes are introduced.

They do the race swap just to rile people up and get them talking about the movie cause they have no actual confidence in their ability to make the product good. --- Switch FC: 2084-0561-4244, PSN: Blood_Wizard Currently Playing: Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

Only if it's Calvin Ellis and it's an indication that they're gonna open up the multiverse like I was saying in that evil Supergirl thread yesterday.
