And so we come to the final entry in the our characters of colour in comics series, looping back to focus on women again.. We hope that we've showcased characters that interests you and we hope that you've been intrigued enough to search out some books. There seem to be a lot more superhero men than women around, part of this is, I think, because there are more male superheroes than female ones, which is a pity. Another thing I think we've learnt is that ongoing superhero series tend to feature white people, not characters of colour. The only way this will change is if people buy more comics with characters of colour in them, showing the publishers that there is a demand. So please, if you like the sound of any of these characters, buy a copy of the book!
To recap, the previous entries in our series can be found here:
Women (part one), women (part two), the X (wo)men, men (part one), men (part two), men (part three), men (part four), men (part five) and non-superhero comics.
And now, on with the women.
