Being Black with very strong African and Latin cultural roots and also being a lifelong adherent of the martial arts,I tried to purchase this mini,but my local comics shop kept telling me that they were sold out.I asked if they were getting more,but they told me that they probably weren't becasue the series isn't selling well and that the story is lame.That's a quote."The story is lame."
Is the story lame?
It's a very good read. Very feminist, and more in touch with how a real woman would be portrayed if there were actual super heroes. It's getting flack from many men, because it doesn't ooze sexuality. Her breasts and butt aren't all in your face. Her costume isn't overtly sexual, and she kicks a LOT of male butt.
And I was just stating a fact of the book. I thought I saw someone write that over in the 'Real black love' thread, asking why she had to be paired up with Daredevil instead of a Puerto Rican love interest. She isn't attracted to Matt Murdock, she has respect for him. She stood up to her former FBI director who fired her because she believed in what Matt was doing in his neighborhood.
But on the topic of interracial romances, I see things a little differently. I dont' care who someone is romantically linked to, as long as it is written well. If you love someone for who they are, the color of one's skin should never be a issue, love should be color blind. Ask my parents who have been married for almost 30 years, and have had personal and social issues caused by this, but have weathered the storm beautifully. They are more in love today than they were 28 years ago.
