I saw a tweet about this earlier. No one wants this, white or even black people. LINK

Who wants this??

I'm not proud to say that someone in my familial orbit is STILL bitching about Jake from State Farm becoming black. I didn't realize she was so invested in the character.

He's a fricking alien. Why are you so worried about this?

Should Superman be green or gray? That would make his gig at the Daily Planet a bit difficult to explain away... Why does this race of aliens from a distant planet look exactly like humans of Earth? Is there an "Ancient Aliens" kind of deal inherent in the Superman mythos that no one has addressed?

Rest assured the villain will be tied to either white supremacy or the environment.

A white alien with black hair and blue eyes. Nobody wants to see Dolemite in spandex and a cape

It would be pretty sweet to see him take out some bad guys and say "Superman is my name and fricking up motherfrickers is my game."

And regardless of how shitty it is rotten tomatoes will give it a 98% fresh rating just because it’s black.

Well, he's a fictional character. So, they can cast whoever they want.

People prove them right by getting worked up about it.

If the story is good, watch it.

If it's racist, SJW nonsense, then don't.

You know it will be. He'll be tasked with correcting the wrongs the black community has endured since he came to the planet. They'll talk about how hard it was for him growing up and that made him want to be a better person and pushed him to become the hero superman is. Lex Luthor will be a trump looking dude and follow the same development as WW84.

No doubt.

I'm just saying it's not inherently wrong to look for a black Superman depending on the story you want to tell. If you want to toy with Superman growing up in Harlem instead of on a farm, he probably shouldn't be white

Could you tell a story like that that was interesting and entertaining for everybody? Yes. Will they? Probably not.

I see your point but it also depends on location. There are some country arse black folks in where I live in Texas. Riding their horses alongside the road and everything.

Won't be seeing that. Wouldn't go see a white Black Panther either. They should stop jacking around with existing superheroes. You don't like their skin color then create a new one. Isn't this basically super-cultural appropriation???
