Some REALLY good posing here. Definitely going to steal a couple of those poses for my display :^)

Thanks for the inspiration.

I'm "white" but this is identical to my perspective on this issue. Not only that, but it will help if the "non-minority" writers continue to learn more about social justice issues of all kinds. Way too much institutionalized prejudice on all fronts in media (as it is in all of society) and comic book companies are just another microcosm of this.

Thankfully in our displays we can have classic teams with white Hasbro Fury alongside Hasbro Black Panther alongside Toy Biz Cage and Falcon (and Misty, etc.) next to a team with movie Fury alongside movie Panther and hopefully soon, movie Falcon and maybe even MCU Cage. And maybe someday we can add a comic Blue Marvel with both helmeted and unhelmeted heads to that display :^)
