Slow news day?  EDIT:  Also, fucking horribly written article.

While it's on MSNBC, it's actually newsarama. That explains the article quality.

Since when were Kryptonians the standard-bearers of all superheroes? Why does Krypton even matter? It's just a normal (albeit futuristic) planet. Kryptonians are only superpowered here. The person who wrote that article seems a fuckton more versed and researched on the subject -- yet, they don't even know that? [edit] Or what I mean is, if you're going to write an article about mutliracial superheroes in comics, then why write about Krypton? It doesn't even matter whether they were multiracial or not. They're not even "superheroes" to begin with.

The bigger question is:  Why are they inking Superman to look like an obese Ronald Reagan taking a dump?

Oh, and retarded idea.  Because diversity springs exactly the same way on each planet.

I'm going to have to complain.  Adding Africans and Asians to a planet of Jews is simply another instance of anti-caucasian beliefs.
