Anonymous asked: why don't you simply try to boost black panther more, if you want black characters in the spotlight to shine with diversity? one would assume that with dc's bat-universe-dominance black panther might sell well, if he is written and portrayed in a similar way.

I don’t know, I think there’s something a bit off about the notion that the only way to make the Black Panther successful is to make him a clone of Batman.

But that’s not really the issue here, is it? And you’re mistaking the goal.

We’re telling a Captain America story, plain and simple.

For all of the folks that wrote in about this: I’m sorry that there are no longer any white male heroes in comics that you can relate to.
