Hello, I lack empathy. I am a certified villain who lacks basic human decency. I laugh at images of sad puppies. I eat animal crackers starting with the head.

What is the explanation for him being black in Animated, but white everywhere else?

If you protest, it's because you feel your voice isn't being heard. If you riot, it's because you feel your voice is being ignored.

Nick Fury is black in the Ultimate Universe comics. He was explicitly modeled after Samuel L Jackson.

In all seriousness, he's not. For whatever reason, they just gave him a darker skin tone. He's actually the same color as Superman. Later DCAU shows portray him as much paler.

Considering how many Super movies and t.v series have been produced, featuring a white Lex, what was your point again?

In the 1940s version, he was Native American.

Crikey. I never saw the 1940's Superman before. Though I did see one promo for an ep where there was a fire at a circus, and Superman was getting his ass kicked by a normal gorilla. I wonder if that was just normal 40's racism, or that the character was originally designed to be Native American?

Took me a second to realize you weren't saying Superman getting his ass kicked by a gorilla was 40's racism.

The character is designed to be Native American. The plot is that he wants Manhattan returned to his people. Clark Kent admits that the land was taken forcibly (an uncommon admission for a 1940s cartoon), but says it's unfeasible for Manhattan to be evacuated. Our unnamed antagonist responds with his Electric Earthquake machine.

While the character is unnamed (all of the villains in the cartoon series went unnamed), he has the same mannerisms and fashion sense as Lex Luthor and the story is based on a comic featuring Luthor as the villain. He more or less functions as that cartoon's version of Lex Luthor in the same way that Michelle from the recent Spider-Man movies functions as that universe's version of Mary Jane Watson.

Given that the character is well-mannered, well-dressed, highly intelligent, and drawn to look like a human being, I'd say he's actually one of the least racist depictions of a person of color in a 1940s cartoon. The Superman series, unfortunately, was no stranger to racism against other groups. (I can't even say the name of one of the shorts on GameFAQs.)
