And why is DC artist Jorge Molina so mad about it.
When did Kyle Rayner become Latino
Jayden Parker
Chase Reyes
Wow, a bag of tamales. What's next, a quiver of flechas?
Brandon Williams
Pretty sure he just became Latino since his prime and new earth wiki pages have no references to beanland.
David Wilson
Somehow I have the impression only white people and xicanos with the white beta mindset give a fuck about any of this. I'm wrong? If you live in mexico, do you give a fuck?
James Lewis
He’s always been Latino. And the problem is they took a cool cover and edited it to the lazier thing ever. Would’ve thought they’d be covered under parody art or something
Dominic Cooper
>HEY! it's Hispanic heritage month! let's celebrate mexico!
why are youy fags so obsessed with mexicans?
Jeremiah Myers
The one on the left directly references a famous Mexican mural artist
Julian Martin
Kyle was revealed to have a Mexican American CIA agent dad in Judd Winnicks run back in the early 2000s. This was mostly an obscure fact until like Rebirth where they start leaning into it despite his father abandoning the family early on.
The artist is upset because the cover was initially cancelled because of copyright issues; the original image holder didn’t clear it even though it should be a parody. So instead DC published an unfinished revision of it.
Jaxson Allen
I mean, in fairness if he was explicitly stated to be Mexican then this would be fine.
Jayden Thomas
Because Editorial's idea of representing Mexican culture is unironically that one meme shitting on Victor and Valentino.
Ryan Davis
Kyle's been Mexican-American for decades, user. You might know that if you read comics. I certainly did, and I haven't touched GL stuff since around the time the Hal daddyfaggots got their wish.
Nolan Lee
Yeah, but it's not like it's ever been actual part of his character, for all intents and purposes, he was a white guy until they revealed who his father was.
Adrian Lewis
I'm really not interested in your made-up excuse to cry about politics.
Sebastian Price
Sorry we can't have actual culture represented in comic books.
Nathan Garcia
>the original image holder didn’t clear it
Wait. What image is it a parody of?
Gabriel Johnson
It is notorious when King wrote him, praying in broken Spanish.
Brandon Gonzalez
Ah. Found it.
Parker Taylor
Because we're the best ones.
Kayden Wilson
This is worse than the St Paddy's Day fiasco last year back when Kyle was still half Irish.
Lincoln Price
>shitpost art is a shamrock
>st paddy's day icon uses 4 leaf
Dylan Roberts
They also have a Dominican flag one with The Question II on it. Wait. They have the homosexual character surrounded by fruit? Isn't that derogatory? What the fuck does fruit have to do with The Question / Renee?!
Austin Carter
And, because I guess Hispanics are only known for food, here is Hawkgirl working as a waitress at a taqueria. Half surprised they didn't make her a maid. They gave her an apron.
Liam Martinez
I'm pretty sure it's the shamrock.
