That better not be serious... They already pulled this shit with Miss Martian on Supergirl. Is she still green skinned? As long as she's still green skinned. But you know how they are with their anti redhead campaign. Except Megan in her human form when she’s trying to blend in, in both the comics and animation is a white redhead with freckles. White freckles redhead ALWAYS translates to black in Hollywood live action.

Ugh... did you just assume my fandom? I am puzzled. Saying one is cosplay while the other is not. That's assuming from a narrow point of view. Perhaps the fandom I am a cosplaying involves businessmen. Plus I'm making fun of SJWs and their stupid stuff like "Did you just assume my gender?"

This is supposed to be kind of satirical but it pretty much perfectly describes one of the biggest problems with comics.

Looks like Marvel is having Cap go full SJW in the new Captain America run. He's always been a prop for left leaning political ideology but seriously they're having him actually side with ANTIFA now. WTF? Talk about not understanding a character. Cap would not pick one extremist side to battle the other extremist side. This is no analogue for World War II, despite how much they're trying to paint it as such. Of course the team behind this makes the Conservative side out as evil oppressive Hydra (Nazi) zealots. Like literally all of them. As though there is only the "rational" pro immigrant, pro Muslim, BLM, ANTIFA, LGBT advocate types on the one side (the right side of history of course) and the other side is nothing but full on goose stepping, hood wearing, cross burning, Jew haters. Get the fuck out of here with that shit. I thought Cap was no longer a Nazi? Oh that's right... it's not fascism when this behavior comes from the political left. I forgot. If they wanted to talk about the issue of political divide in America through comics then Cap was a great character to do it with, but... this was the chance to have Cap do the American thing which would have been to stand between the two sides and remind them that both of their actions are wrong. To tell them that as Americans they have more in common than they differ on. To have him actually be a bridge to close the divide and start a dialogue. Instead they just go full tilt into Hitler punching mode and continue to pretend like there is only one right side in this debate and the ends justify the means because, after all... it's okay to punch a Nazi. Never mind that the amount of literal Nazis is laughably small and even the average political conservative hates actual Nazis and Klansmen. The rest of the people on the political right of center (the majority of conservatives) are just being labeled as Nazis because they espouse different views.

Okay Disney... this isn't exactly the kind of thing I would like to see done with the Star Wars license. That bit at 18:50 is some straight up fan service though.

Looks like some kind of weird Babysitter's Club spinoff.

Buckle in cause here we go:
(who didn't see this coming?) Hey, this is Starfire:
Ok, got it? Fairly familiar? Okay. Now this is also Starfire as she will appear in the new Titans tv show:
Mmmhmm, not a big surprise there. (They raceswapped the redheaded comic book hero) There's a precedent for this.
What is surprising is this:
"If you thought being a regular old black person in America was tough, try being a black superhero, or a black person from the future, or even worse, a black alien from a galaxy far, far away. You’d have to deal with Thanos, inter-dimensional threats, and you still have to battle the Chicago Police Department, #BarbecueBecky and white racists online.
In fact, lately it’s gotten so bad that bigots are attacking black folks for even taking roles as superheroes, even black ones. Anna Diop, who plays Starfire, a black woman, in the new Titans show on the new DC Universe streaming service, is catching racist hell for not being the right kind of black for the role."
It appears that the Root lives in a fantasy world where the character depicted above, in comics, animation, and video games, is black. As black as Anna Diop who dons the overly-curled magenta wig to play Starfire in the tv show.
Honestly that set pic makes her look like a prostitute.
