how dc feels when they give damian no ethnic features and make him pale and give cass blue eyes and make her pale and straighten connor’s hair and make him pale and won’t even let the alien woman who’s famous for having giant flowing curls have coily hair and reprint comics and keep the racist coloring and

Still yet again thinking about how video games to Bart Allen are tools to calibrate speed. Despite the GAG in the comics that he plays them so fast he breaks them, video games do not behave like this. There is only so fast a video game can go no matter how quickly Bart pushes the buttons.

Bart can play them very well, his reflexes are quicker than the game itself, he thinks faster than a computer, but he cannot make a video game operate faster than it was programmed to go.

The video games in all actuality help Bart slow down and ground him to "normal speed".

Max doesn't understand this, and he never tries to learn this, and that is why it is so frustrating when he claims Bart's skills in games is just because he is fast and he actually doesn't have any talent. Poor Bart doesn't have the ability to defend himself properly from people determined to not understand him or how his powers work.

Hi

[eyeballplanets-deactivated20251]

the thing is i truly dont trust or even many days particularly want dc comics to write kyle as a brown mexican character. and im using my words carefully because people typically call him hispanic or latino. i am avoiding those words on purpose. his mother taught him irish and was in one origin associated with the troubles. he would not give himself to such an identity when he was raised to understand the importance of avoiding colonial assimilation.

i dont want abuelita mijo familia chanclazo latinidad is about having fun and being yourself. he is a character who is, before he was even canonized as having a brown mexican father, associated with anti colonial language preservation struggles. a strong reception of his race would not remove him from the context and content of his storytelling to sprinkle in aesthetic elements. it should be woven into the struggles that define his character. he has already been hunted by the government. he already had a bond with another mixed character with a fatherhood legacy. he already was taught to control himself and avoid collateral by a man of color. his father had to pretend to be an abuser to free maura from government attention and they had no problem believing he was dangerous. in another easily synergetic telling his disappearance led to their impoverishment.

ive seen discourse about whether he would “identify as latino” but major force and the desolation arc and others demonstrate that he is Other no matter what. even in space his body is used to make a statement. the domineering leader of a fascist military order tears him open to take his power. the strength of older comics was how the interpersonal conflicts translate to the cosmic conflicts. hal stridently supports a creed that stifles others; john is held to an unfairly high standard of observation; guy is stripped of his body autonomy. a “mamas chimichangas line” treats kyles identities as so easily reduced. amanda waller mentions he is the only lantern whose identity they don't know; his brown father is still on the run from the government.
