>but what powers do the other minorities get?
Latinos and Red Heads - Fire based powers
Native Americas - Tribal Magic
Asians - Super kung fu Magic
Gays - FABULOUSNESS
Whites are everything in comics.
That being said, I'm trying to think of Super Smart Asians.
There's Amadeus Cho and Toyman II I think but he was just a robot in the end.
Most Asians I feel like just get stuck with kung fu magic of varying sorts but even then not really enough to say "All Asians are Kung Fu magic"
Hiro from Big Hero 6. A more low-key (and accidental) example would be the Kimiyo Hoshi Doctor Light, who is an astronomer, physicist, and medical doctor.
>Japanese Toyman from DC
Was later retconned into being a toy controlled by the original Toyman. Which they later retcon into him being an actual person... supposedly.

the only asian comic characters that I can think of that are "super geniuses" would be korean hulk, and Japanese Toyman from DC
Asians in comics either gets the anime samurai treatment or gets with crazy technological suits.
Super Genius depends but it's nothing like a Megamind looking chink that moves in MODOK chair since his brain is too big
Flying bricks like Superman, for much the same reasons as there are tons of Black Lightning clones.
Also, guys like Batman or Green Arrow where their power is essentially "money".
>having your black superhero with electrical powers say LOL I'M A BLACK SUPERHERO WITH ELECTRICAL POWERS to obfuscate the fact that we still have a lot of black superheroes with electrical powers
I want to create a black character that has powers like Max Payne. When someone asks if he has electricity powers he can say, “What? No. I can move ultra fast for small bursts of time. Wait, why did you think that?”
>Why do so many lightning characters have black powers?
BTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Black Lightning was popular for his time, creating many imitators.
This is a good thing.
Yes
Blacks get electricity powers but what powers do the other minorities get?
There are a few latino characters with techno powers(Generator Rex, Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle)

Gays - FABULOUSNESS

confirmed
Whatever happened to these two?
I thought fire went to the arabs/middle easterners?
That's part of the whole arab magic stuff with genie/djinn/ifrits because like native americans, it's mainly magic based on their culture.
Asians are also super geniuses.
I thought white cripples in wheelchairs like the Ultra-Humanite are the super geniuses in comics.

Arabs get sand powers
Has there ever been an aussie with Aboriginal myth/dreamtime themed powers?
Only in a USAmerican comic written by and for Americlaps.
Most everywhere else in the world your race isn't some overarching theme for your whole life, and it doesn't flavour your talents.
You dumb boring racist c**ts.
Does Captain Boomerang counts?
>Ayo mate, dat's a abo shit dat on'ly n abo wo'ld use
When they find out they knocked up their Lady pal they are gone in a flash. Just like lightning.
You made this thread before, with the same image and everything.
What's the quintessential white superpower?
Privilege.
Good relationships with their father
Some variation of Superman.
Flying bricks like Superman, for much the same reasons as there are tons of Black Lightning clones.
Also, guys like Batman or Green Arrow where their power is essentially "money".
The Superman package or The Batman package
Because African lightning magic.
It's secretly because Shango, the Yoruba thunder god, is blessing his children with lightning powers so they can be great warriors.
>having your black superhero with electrical powers say LOL I'M A BLACK SUPERHERO WITH ELECTRICAL POWERS to obfuscate the fact that we still have a lot of black superheroes with electrical powers
To be fair it was from a comic that's entire purpose was being meta and from before that was completely overdone.
why do so many ginger characters get blackwashed?
wait a minute
g-i-n-g-e-r
r-e-g-n-i-g
n-i
That's DC. Marvel just makes us super-smart for some reason. Irony, maybe: most of us are idiots and none of us have any power.
Because they all wear sneakers, are good at basketball, and can run away from the police really fast.
Probably because so many of them got fried on the chair.
