Instead of creating new black characters for black children. Black people would rather celebrate these "Here nikka, DAMN!" race swaps.

How about we finally get a Static Shock movie instead of this wack ass pandering shyt?

Because reality is most people(regardless of race) generally don't support new characters lol. Even then, people will still complain and find reasons not to buy. Case in point, Marvel created Mosaic, a whole new Black superhero, comic was DOA. Haven't seen that nikka since.

and White/non-Black people hate Black characters period regardless if they're original or not. So I don't know why some nikkas are scared of White backlash when these things happen.

Author probably assumed that black youths would blend in more easily in New York and go unnoticed.

The author is clearly still stuck in the 90s. New York been slowly taken over by cacs and their variants.

Leonardo used to be my fav TMNT.

I don’t get why he got smaller.

At one point I thought the was all the same size per the OG cartoons and comics.

They they started changing they height. fukk Raphael recently has been MASSIVE in comparison to all them.

Their

How do you "race swap" some fukking turtles who have NEVER been shown to be white in any form and still AREN'T black now. They're just turtles moving through NYC under hologram projection of Black teens.





All teenagers love pizza. And their names have absolutely nothing to do with their identity. It was just a random whim by the creators.

“We thought about giving the turtles Japanese names but we couldn’t think of authentic-sounding Japanese names. So, we thought why not name them after Renaissance artists? We picked the names we were most familiar with and went with it.”


In the comic, Splinter names them after his favorite artists. Nothing to do with their identity or NYC Italians whatsoever.

I tried to look up "TMNT race" right now and found entire comicfan boards where they never even discuss them being Italian, it's all an argument over whether they're Japanese, Black, or White.

That's wild
