Historically, diversity has been a real issue for superhero comics - so we need to do something about it, crafting strong, modern heroes for a modern audience.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There is a certain danger in thinking about diversity in its own little box, as something that is somehow separate from 'normal' comic books and comics creators.
I continue to be disappointed that people don't try and diversify the kind of work they are doing in comics.
There's always a need for new superheroes. As society changes, the types of superheroes will probably change as well.
I'm used to comic books being reimagined, different takes on some of our beloved superheroes.
The only way we are going to get diversity is if the demographics of the decision-makers change... The odd-token bone thrown is not going to do it. Don't pat yourself on the back because you made that black drama; that's not diversity. It's got to be baked into the foundation of where the ideas flow from.
Comics could use more creators with something worthwhile to say.
Marvel is a very vast and diverse universe.
When you write for a comic series, many superheroes have 60 or some years of history that you are coming into.
We relate comics to the main super-heroes, but it's a great medium through which all sorts of stories are told.
I'd love to see more equal representation of female and male cartoonists on the comics page.
