This is a good move. They need fresh story lines and it shows Steve Rogers as your superhero who just happens to be black. Good for knocking out the Democrat's ideas of treating minorities as "people apart"

If there was a market for Black superheros, that niche would have been filled long ago. Taking a white superhero and magically changing him into a Black man is nothing more than propaganda.

They did a miniseries in the 1990s about a black soldier who took an earlier version of the super-serum before Steve Rogers did.

Worn out gimmick. Anyone remember when James “Rhody” Rhodes was Iron Man before he was War Machine?

What we need is a multicultural Captain America who considers himself a citizen of the world and supports gay marriage instead of fighting arch criminals.

Why not make him a gay, transgendered, black, female, illegal immigrant, muslim?

Why not go for all the liberal’s most important people instead of just one kind?

How about a half-black Ferengi bisexual shyster from Kenya or Indonesia with galactic organizing skills who just thinks he’s a god?

Ok, I'll admit I'm not big into the comic/super hero thing BUT why can't there be new characters? Why do we find out after years some character is gay, black, now a woman? Can't find money in the budget to support new characters?

As a girl, I remembered seeing my first black Barbie. I asked my mom why all of the dolls had the same name! Then they had Ken, and some other girl dolls,with other names, but why “black Barbie”. Isn't it better to have your own ID not just be known as the black version of a white character?

I like The Harry Potter series. Out of the blue JK Rowling says Dumbledore was gay. She wrote the books, but why after everything is published, movies made, is someone suddenly gay? Who cares? It wasn't a part of the stories. I guess she just wanted new publicity. Next, will we find out Snape was a bisexual transgendered drag queen?

Agree. I don't see why it's wrong to do this.

Why not? All the commercials show the black guy as the smart one that makes all the right choices, and the white guy as the idiot duffs who can’t do anything right. It’s commercial cuckold on the white boy.

I hope it is as successful as the recent The Honeymooners starring Cedric the Entertainer as Ralph Kramden.

You wanna shock me? Cast Rosie O’Donnell as the next Wonder Woman.
