"The original Terminator was a gritty fucking AMAZING piece of sci-fi. Gritty fucking rock-hard MURDER!"

The Inhumans TV show tried to focus on Black Bolt, a character who never speaks, and rather then use ASL they decided to make up a sign language.

quote:

"I actually have to do more preparation when it comes to scenes in which I sign, and I can't use American Sign Language," Mount tells Entertainment Weekly. "Because he's not from Earth, he wouldn't know American Sign Language, so I'm making my own sign system."

I don’t like this show nor whomever Anson Mount is.

The 2008 version was based on the 1970s concept described in Tony Isabella's column (pitched by white writers). It was put into a comic in 2008 by Black creator Dwayne McDuffie, so I'm sure he was taking the piss.

It was just the first source I found for Tony's column.

I'm so glad I was never into comic books or superheroes as a kid because hearing other people describe the ludicrous plot decisions in retrospect is much more entertaining than reading them as they happen.

One conversation at a time.



Isabella refused to write the character given to him because "you want our first black hero to be a bigot???" and years later mcduffie wrote a parody




quote:

If that last sequence doesn't seem to make sense, it's because DC editorial erased some of the dialogue form the last panel in post-production; the Brown Bomber is supposed to be asking Vixen if it's okay for him to use the N-word when he's in his black identity. It's too bad that they axed the line, because it is both funny and sharp commentary, but it at least proves that, 35 years later, DC editorial has at least learned some of their lesson from the debacle that almost was The Black Bomber.
