Anyone first think this was going to be about X-Men and mutants in general in Marvel comics?
I did.
Anyways, I think comics being racist is a load of crap. For one thing, a lot of the comic super heroes aren't even human but some humanoid aliens (like the Silver Surfer, Ganymede, Gamora ) or a gods (Thor, Valkyrie and Blader) or some non-human from earth (Andromeda).
Secondly, there are plenty of non-American heroes; Colossus (russian), Maggott (South African), Sasquatch (Polish Canadian), Echo AKA Ronin (Hispanic Native American), Sunfire (Japanese), Sunspot (Brazilian), Armor (Japanese), Captain Britain (English), Banshee (Irish), Wolverine (Canadian), Araña (Mexican), Elektra (Greek), Karma (Vietnamese), La Lunatica (Mexican) Pixie (Welsh), Red Sonja (Russian or Ukrainian) or Aurora (Canadian).
All that was from just picking out random names of Marvel superheros that looked interesting.
