It’s a great time to be a superhero, particularly on TELEVISION.
Between WandaVision, Batwoman, Black Lightning, The Flash, Supergirl, Stargirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Doom Patrol, Titans, Superman & Lois, Watchmen, and even The Boys, there’s something for everyone—an ever-growing rainbow of good example, anti-role designs and effective badasses to motivate and amuse us. This Black History Month, we’re commemorating the reality that more of those superheroes are Black than ever previously.
Batwoman just recently invited Javicia Leslie, a Black bisexual female, as its brand-new lead. Black Lightning will end later on this year after having actually presented among TELEVISION’s very first Black lesbian superheroes with Thunder (Nafessa Williams). Just today, WandaVision powered up a brand-new superhero in the kind of Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), and if the comics are any indicator, she will be a genuine force to be considered.
Even as the world is still grieving the loss of Chadwick Boseman, who played the unparalleled Black Panther, there are a great deal of heroes to commemorate.
