Anyone remember the black and white minstrel show live from the london palladium every Sunday night? That was a load of white guys all in white suits with black boot polish (or something like it) on their faces and white lips? If they did that now it would bring the house down. How this world has changed.

I'm certainly no expert, but my son informs me that there is already a Black Superman in the DC Comics called Steel.
I don't know his story, but an existing Black version of Superman would be acceptable to most as long as it didn't replace the classic version.
My biggest reservation is that Henry Cavill made an excellent Superman, A hard task after Christopher Reeve made the role his own.

And a black Spiderman.

I think most of us sense a theme.

I can just about remember that show in the seventies as a child. I also remember Lenny Henry 'whiting' up for his crack at Hollywood.....I think there's been a recent series in the US with blacks 'whiting' up.

He also appeared in the Black & White Minstrel show which must have left him quite conflicted.

I knew one of them. Had a few drinks with him in Donegal. There were actual black ones as well.

All the baddies will be white obviously, and a guaranteed racist theme.

I wonder if he will be facing lots of 'Defund the Superman' protests.

If there ever was a HOL meet do you reckon every discussion would be a tedious race based one too?

I hope not but just trying to lighten the mood!
A meet up would be fun but certain issues would have to be banned, politics, race. Thinking about it may be a little subdued
