I don't think ANY superhero necessarily has to remain ANY color, unless that color is something that is central to the core of the character. Outside of that, I don't give a fuck.
Yes. Comics already have good black characters. There's no need to blackwash white characters. If, for some reason, an existing black hero won't do, make a new one.
Of course, this doesn't apply to alternate versions of heroes like Miles Morales Spiderman.
Yes. There's a plethora of Black superheroes that have a amazing stories that can be told. The new Marvel series coming out called Wonder Man in the comics he was a white dude who used bang Scarlet Witch and Ms Marvel. There's no need to make his character Black. If anything Marvel could've had the same actor play Blue Marvel whom had a way better storyline and he's probably more powerful than Sentry.
I don't have a problem with making side characters Black or whatever color because they're not the main point of the story but to change the main character isn't needed especially in comic book world.
Just explore Black characters that's already out there. Like Icon, Blue Marvel, Protege(Marvel and Image), Dr VooDoo, Frenzy, Night Thrasher(Black Tony Starks Batman mix up), Blood Syndicate and others
They rank different characters by powers, intelligence, and other qualities shift over time.
Black Panther is top 5 most intelligent people on Marvel Earth. Blue Marvel is pretty both with intelligence and powers. Storm is pretty high up on the list as far as the X-men go. I think Photon is high tier when it comes to power levels.
I understand some of the early ones like sam Jackson playing Nick Fury...
Sam is a great actor, a huge name, and it helped push the franchise forward.
But that's not always the case.
Also comics at their hearts are popular bcuz of the stories. There is enough representation in comics that races don't have to be switched for everything.. Especially if making that change isn't reflected in the story.
We don't need a black Superman or Batman. We don't need a black hulk or magneto.... Some of it is just too much...

Depends. Stan Lee been on record to say that a lot of the characters he created....even the main ones...were actually meant to be black, or another race.
But b/c of the times he was in during that time he created the characters, he was obligated to make them white. The only excuse that the comics can get away wit completely changing the chracters....is the multi-verse angle.
Yes. If there is money to make a super hero movie with a black lead, i want that hero to be black panther, Blade, Static shock etc. I dont want no black superman.
The only time i have seen it done right is with Myles Morales, because he isnt even Peter parker.
