Check this out. Marvel has been busy promoting diversity lately with the new Iron Man, but DC hasn't been doing as much. Sure, one of the members of the JL is African American and Green Lantern's new team mate is Hispanic. But that's not enough, they need to go further than that. I'm 17 years old and African American and I say it's time for a change!
I propose we replace Bruce Wayne as Batman. He's been Batman for 75 years now. The whole tall, dark and handsome white guy is so 1940's. We need to get with modern age here and embrace diversity.
Batman should be reintroduced as a teenage transgendered Jewish Eskimo! I mean think about it. How many Eskimo superheroes do you see? What about transgendered? I can't think of any main Jewish DC superheros. Can you?
DC needs to drive a solid stake in ground with diversity. What better way than replacing a main character. You are tackling 3 demographics at once. Some fans might not like this. But I say, get with the program we're living in 2016. Time to embrace diversity! DC will gain a lot more readers than they lose by doing this.
Here's a good plot for it. Bruce is experimenting with some portal technology and falls into a rift to an alternate earth. Later for some reason the Batman of that Earth pops out of the portal to take Bruce's place. He's a 17 year old former female Eskimo who's a genius. His weakness is he refuses to fight crime from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday because of his commitment to Torah Law.
What do you guys think? Who's with me?
