NU'BIA WAS ACTUALLY IN THE WONDER WOMAN SHOW BACK IN THE 70's. THIS WAS ALLUDED TO BE JAYNE KENNEDY. THERE WAS A PUSH FOR A SPIN-OFF STARRING JAYNE KENNEDY BUT OF COURSE...IT WASN'T FOR THOSE TIMES BUT YES...THE DOLL WAS BASED OFF OF JAYNE KENNEDY'S CAMEO IN THE WONDER WOMAN SERIES.

Thanks for watching and your feedback. If Jayne's character was implied to be Nubia then this was even worse. If they were going to give us Nubia then it should have been full armor costume ready for battle Nubia. We were robbed. It took them to 2022 to finally actually start using the character but better late then never I guess. Be sure to watch more videos from Black Superhero Playlist. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6SVm6qfr5qAbcU

@theoking282110 күн бұрын
@ComicPower I can definitely respect that point of view. As a white guy, I always felt Milestone Characters were some of my favorites when it came to Black Characters. I love John Stewart, a huge GL and DC fan, but as you said DC doesn't wanna use their Black Characters aside from as a race filler. I always liked that Milestone was written by people of color, rather than just another white guy writing a black character from a whites idea of a black character, and even in modern day they try to get around that by making the character the new "smartest" or "strongest" of their respective universe, so they don't have to put in the work and write a compelling story. Hence the stardom of Miles Morales being written with the original idea of Spiderman, a down to earth every day lovable guy! Comics in recent years have certainly forgotten that.

@theoking2821 considering Milestone in association with DC had a successful animated series based on Static and not updating it for a reboot is nonsensical.. Especially after the success of Miles morales films. Static made Miles possible.. WB wasted $90 million on a batgirl.film they canned and another $100 million making blue beetle when no one asked for it.. this company must be run by idiots.. Just do a Static animated film or better yet live action.. why is this so hard.. ughh don't get me started

As with the rise of female, LGBTQ+, other abled peoples, black, Hispanic/Latinx and Asian representation has reinvigorated many of the tired tropes of comics. New voices, cultures, appearances have added much more rich story telling and even employment opportunities to the industry. There needs to be more and hopefully, we all will get many chances to see all our varied and wonderful colors shine. PS. Storm is my absolute favorite. And yes, I am a gay, cis-gendered white guy...

Thank you for your feedback. Everything you said was true. For example Miles Morales allows Marvel to give us a Teenage Spiderman with a fresh spin. Peter Parker has been around since 1962. He was really the first teenage lead character in comics and not a sidekick. But they had to age him up to advance the character to keep him fresh and wound over aging to where hes lost that youthful charisma. trying to de age him didn't work and caused confusing continuity. In saying welcome. I hope you stay. And BTW I have several playlist for binge watching. I have one called LGBTQ Supheroes in which I am friendly to the Gay community! here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5iXgJRup7ODetU

I did In the minseries Nubia Coronation. We got an important story as she crowned Queen of the Amazons, but i found the art to be lacking. She also headlined Nubia and the Justice League, which didnt present anything new and refreshing in terms of its storytelling. It seemed like a makeup for having Nubia sit on the bench for so long, DC felt shamed into putting her into something important as a headliner. The most obvious they should do (but DC is too stupid to do) is do a Wonder Woman Part 3 live action movie in which Nubia shows up to challenge Diana and then they have to team up to fight together against a bigger threat. Im available it to write it but once again DC is just too dumb to do the right thing! kzbin.info

There was no answer for Marvel that would have made everybody happy. Chadwick was the only actor to play Tchalla in live action and the way he died may have been as insensitive by his fans. A replacement so soon would have led to harrassment of the imposter Tchalla. And seeing the new guy interact with all the other original actors like everything was normal would be weird. Like how the fresh prince show got a new aunt viv. So i think marvel did the right thing. Maybe they reboot after secret wars and give us a new Tchalla say around 2027.
