Celebrating Black Superheroes

In honor of Black History Month, I thought I'd celebrate by showcasing a few of my favorite black superheroes (and supervillains) from comics and/or other fandoms with comic tie-ins.

And if you have any favorite black characters from comics or other fandom that you'd love to showcase, then by all means post lists and/or pics in the comments. I would love to see your selections.















Cyborg from Smallville. My man is fine isn't he. Go ahead and look. THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH!!!!



And speaking of casting win on Smallville, THIS!!!!!!

God, Eartha Kitt. Just talking about her a couple a days ago, such an amazing actor, THE definitive Catwoman for me, and Yzma was hilarious <3.

May I add:



CONNOR HAWKE! He's the illegimate son of Oliver Queen and proudly continues the Arrow-family tradition of out-awesoming Ollie by roughly two billion. He's a pacifist and a martial artist and pretty bi and super cool.

and



Blade. Fucking yes, Blade.
