"The only White person left on the Avengers is Thor."
And he's now a she.
Spider-Man? Miles Morales, Black/Puerto Rican, and <barf> from Brooklyn. Ms Marvel? Kamala Khan, Muslim desi from <barf> Jersey City. Captain America? Sam Slade of Harlem. Nova? Sam Alexander, non-specific Latino from Arizona. Thor? Blond white chick.
Vision's a fucking Android.
No one is saying who Iron Man will be, but there's talk that it won't be Tony Stark.
I never got into Thor, but I genuinely like the lineup. And because these characters have been around for a few years, it doesn't feel forced, or like they're pushing this as the MINORITYVENGERS. Feels more like a lineage lineup: characters that have inherited their roles.
