Ok, ARS...who are you? And don't say Batman!

Seriously, you're pretty quick and comprehensive with your comic info. I love everything Dwyane brought to DC supes-toons...RIP. That said, some of the stuff on the comic side (that Milestone stuff was really not my cup of tea with the exception of Hardware and Icon) almost felt exploitative. "Negro" is a term I play around with close friends and family. But as a serious pitch for 'concept?' What was dude thinking? He is due a great deal of respect in the industry and beyond. But what you just shared is a bit of a head scratch-er, for me....still, very interesting history though. Thanks, man!

That was the point of it. It was an over the top satirical pitch to protest the fact that a quarter of the Black representation in the Marvel books at the time were guys on skateboards who dressed and spoke like stereotypes from 15 years ago and needed their White friends to bail them out and keep them in check.
