Really..Astro City's superteam is now 50% black characters? Must be a while since I've read a new issue, then, because I've read most of the older Busiek TPBs (Astro City is pure genius, to put it bluntly) and the only black character of the Honor Guard was Cleopatra....

Re: Why is there a lack of black models in heroine porn?
