I could've sworn that Wonder Woman in the DC vs Marvel comic was considered black.

I still think they kill off Iron Man in Avengers 2 and he gets replaced by War Machine....who is black.
That's start of the Blavengers. War Machine for IM, Black Panther for Cap, Luke Cage for Hulk, and Falcon for Thor I guess.

Replace Beta Ray Bill with Falcon for Thor and I'm all about this

And they would still keep Scarlett Johanson around since her codename is Black Widow.
Falcon could replace Hawkeye.
Falcon could replace Hawkeye.

Agreed. Her wooty would make her perfectly acceptable on an all black team.

One thing that I've learned over the years is that comic book fans want accuracy.
And instead they've been treated to a steady stream of Clones, Life Model Decoys, Alien Symbiotes, Skrull impersonators who took character's places for years, Space Phantom impersonators, Crisis type almost total reboots, characters being alive, dead, alive, dead, alive dead, etc. etc. since pretty much the inception of the comic book medium.
I think they'll be able to handle a Human Torch with a little more pigmentation.
I still want them to get a true blond Sue Storm though.

I get your point though.

umm.
when he is supposed to be the brother of one of the whitest women in comics I'm sorry but that is a stupid arse thing to do.
if they really want a black character in FF it should be Reed Richards or The Thing.
if you make the Human Torch a black man, you MUST make Sue Storm black as well. That would be a hell of a lot more acceptable than having one be white and one be black.

You care about Sue Storm's hair color, but not her brother's skin color? Someone is bending over hard to show how tolerant and accepting he is.

doesn't mean I'm racist. It's people like you in this country...
Anyways, why not make the black panther or falcon white or hispanic?
Never said you were. Telling you think I did. But yea, your solution of turning the 1-2 black heroes white proves your tolerance. Good Call!

Yes I do. But I don't have any claim to be tolerant and accepting. Some things about comic book adaptations of comics I grew up with just bother me while some don't. Sue Storm should be blond dammint. A black Human Torch I can accept if well done. Heck, the original WWII era Jim Hammond Human Torch wasn't even human. He was an android or synthozoid.
It also didn't bother me that Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch went from being the children of Ms. America and the Wizard to being the children of Magneto and Magda.
Now Alicia Masters being a Skrull for a long arse time was aggravating (same with Hank Pym).

Not really, if the race of the hero doesn't matter to you, you shouldn't care about it right? As long as the character is written properly.
