New Batman will be black, DC Comics announces

Character named Tim Fox will take up the cowl in new comic series written by 12 Years a Slave screenwriter John Ridley

The next hero to don Batman’s cowl will be a black man, named Tim Fox, DC Comics has revealed.

The identity of the new Batman, estranged son of Bruce Wayne’s business manager Lucius Fox, was announced by the comics publisher on Thursday. The new series will be written by John Ridley, the screenwriter of 12 Years a Slave, with art by Nick Derington and Laura Braga. It is set in a future Gotham City controlled by the villainous Magistrate, where all masked vigilantes are outlawed and Batman has been killed. Fox, as a new Batman, will rise up to save the day.

Ridley had previously revealed that the next Batman would be a person of colour, telling the New York Times that it was the first time his two sons had been “genuinely excited” about his work. “They appreciate the things that I do. They’re happy for me. They’re great supporters. But they would much rather see Black Panther than 12 Years a Slave, let’s be honest,” he said in November. “So to be able to write the next Batman, for them to know that this next Batman is going to be black, everybody else on the planet can hate it, have a problem with it, denigrate it, but I have my audience and they already love it.”

Hilariously underrated comment that will probably go overlooked. Well done though sir.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

What's the point of trying to change existing white characters to black? Just make new characters

I would be disgusted if I was black tbh. The constant pandering and infantilization of black people is patronizing, ignorant and bigoted to say the least.

Couldn't they just make him into his own superhero? Seems unnecessary and pandering.
“Steroids is now just a word that the lazy and ignorant use to describe any guy that has more muscle and dedication than them”– Mike O'Hearn


"I am like getting the feeling of cumming in the gym; I'm getting the feeling of cumming at home; I'm getting the feeling of cumming backstage; when I pump up, when I pose out in front of 5000 people I get the same feeling, so I am cumming day and night. It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."

Man you guys must not read comics, there's a black Spiderman, black Green Lantern (who was probably the first non-pussy GL), a curry Elasticgirl, etc. This is not really all that different.

they should make it a trifecta and make him black, non-binary trans, and muslim. the caped muslim-crusader enforcing SJW values and proper use of pronouns

Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now, so we'll hunt him. Because he can take it, because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector, a Dark Knight
