Talk:List of black superheroes

message: Weren't there supposed to be black superheroes that were instead made white because of the time period these characters came into existence.  I'm thinking of Captain America which recently published a series on the initial experimentation on blacks to discover the correct formula to create the desired outcome. --Mitchumch 12:54, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Almost Black Superheroes

message: What the hell are they?
It's a useless section on a poorly made page with a non pc title.
Frankly this page blows.--Simondrake 21:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bon comics. 

message: It just needs a little work, I'll add it to my list. I think it needs a name change to "Black superheroes in comics" --Basique 12:11, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

message: We may need to break the page into two sections one on history and one strictly the list. While editing I'm seeing a warning about page length. --Basique 18:42, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: History of Black Superheroes

message: Please read the page thoroughly before you add an entry, chances are it's already there, i'm finding way too many dupes on here. --Basique 23:49, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: READ!!

message: A lot of the characters under the TV section may be a bit questionable to call "superheroes". Does being in G.I. Joe automatically get them on the list? As for Josie and The Pussycats...or Mr. T...well... ---   Noclevername 15:35, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I have no idea how old this wiki is but why Delilah.  Even when Goliath was turn human for one episode he was white?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Damondgraham (talk • contribs) 14:23, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why  Delilah of Gargoyles 

message: While the list's title does need to be updated since the lists contain characters that aren't "super-heroes", moving a list that is predominantly based on characters in print media to "animated characters" creates a very, very misleading situation.
Any suggestions on a more appropriate name?

replies: text: I would recommend this list be renamed to List of black fictional heroes to prevent the need to split into a seperate list. If that is not an option, then create the List of black comic book characters and merge it with the List of black supervillians list. The non-comic book characters would need to be moved to seperate lists (List of black television heroes or List of black newspaper heroes, List of black web comic characters) to make things clean. -- Absolon S.

message: When it comes to BLACK superheroes I have put more recent information than anyone. I have made it my point to keep infomation current.  This is the way "I" see it. An "ANIMATED" black SUPERHERO is someone who does something that shows 2 things...  FIRST, It is seen on TV, MOVIE, COMIC PAGES, OR WEB that is made up/FICTION. SECOND, It is something that we would not walk outside and see.  I don't believe we would walk out and see Mr.T wrestling down badguys, R.C. and Micheal Knight (from Knight Rider) fighting bikers, or see G.I. Joes fighting Cobra in our backyard. TRUE, they have no superpowers but we wont see it out in the world.  It's a positive rollmodel.  To me as a child when I watched Mr.T, R.C., or saw Stalker, Doc, Roadbock, and Big Lob (from) G.I. Joe they were as super to me as Black Vulcan from the Superfriends or Zack from the Power Rangers.  I will continue to list them on black superheroes beacuse in MY eyes they SHOULD be on the list. they give hope. they are animated and they do things we do not see everyday, Making them BLAck SUPERHEROES.

message: I restored the page to the template version to allow for better content management. The previous format did not allow for a consistent method of information entry and thus could be open to addition of unsourced and unverifiable information. -- Absolon S.

replies: text: Reverted from template version, needlessly expansive, this is a simple list. It doesn't make management easier it makes it harder. --Xero (talk) 13:16, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Can someone add Static Shock to the list? I am pretty sure he is among the DC Comics clan because I remember he is one of the few black DC Comics characters to appear on an animated tv show. I would add it myself, but I don't want to wreck the list trying to figure out which buttons to use to add it to the list.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.91.177.81 (talk) 23:56, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Black is currently being used as an umbrella term for anyone with dark skin, when it's obvious that's not what Black means.

message: Why is Iron identified as a black superhero here? He's robot with a dark "skin" tone, sort of a blue black. The robots in the team are composed of different materials and drawn with different colors, so I don't doubt there's a veiled nod to multiculturalism at work, but I don't see Iron as unequivocally black. Do robots even have race or ethnicity? Jk180 (talk) 20:29, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

message: It is unclear why these charts have distinct columns for "Year" and "Date", especially as very few of the entries have information in both columns, and much of what is there is redundant. Is there a reason for it? Butterboy (talk) 19:36, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
