After all, there’s more than one kind of Amazon princess. Even if it’s only in cartoons, DC appears to be trying to add more ethnic diversity to their line-up.

FAT BAT, 2005

by Virginie Barré 

"Through drawings, collages, and life-size figurative sculptures, she combines the whimsical with the macabre. In Fat Bat, Barré transforms the comic-book character Batman into a humorous hybrid both fantastical and familiar, effectively deflating the power and idealization of the cartoon superhero while inflating his size.  MORE

Wantu Animation

"Jim Simon had created Wantu Animation which gave a “black” presence on the animation scene. Jim would annually win a lot of ASIFA East awards with his short spots, and you’d be impressed with the well animated output. His design sense was original. However, he left the city’s animation scene for LA and got involved inYogi’s Space Race, the Smurfs and X-Men." MORE

Unnamed Twins

Nothing is known of their past except they were born after Wakanda had defeated the united states in WWIII. As the youngest of Black Panther and Storm’s children they are not expected to ever vie for the throne.

Curiously they have white hair like their mother despite their bloodline passing on said trait once every three generations.

Batman Black and White

"Batman Black and White refers both to a four-issue comic book limited series published in 1996 by DC Comics, and three collections of 8-page black-and-whiteBatman stories, comprising the limited series and backup features from the Batman: Gotham Knights comic.

 The origin of the series is told by editor Mark Chiarello in his introduction to the first collection, in which he writes about a dinner table-discussion with "a few famous comic-book artists," at which they pondered the "desert island" question in terms of a single complete run of comics one would be happy to be stranded with.[1]Ultimately, with "half a minute"'s thought, they "amazingly... all agreed, pound for pound, page for page" that the unequivocal choice was Warren Publishing's Creepy, a high point unmatched since "there has never been such a collection of stellar artists assembled under one banner publication" as in Creepy, whose pages were host to (among others) "Toth, Frazetta, Williamson, Torres, Colan, Ditko, Wrightson, Corben[, etc.]."[1] Chiarello notes that "most of those stories" were written by one man: Archie Goodwin "probably the very best editor ever to work in comics, probably the very best writer ever to work in comics," (and early mentor to Chiarello when the two worked at Marvel) whose Warren work was itself an "homage to the favorite comics of his youth, the E.C. line."[1]

When Chiarello became a Batman editor "a whole bunch of years" later, he naturally "pitch[ed] the idea of a black and white anthology."[1] Told by many colleagues that it wouldn't sell - both as an anthology and a black-and-white title, neither purportedly widely liked by comics readers - the idea was green lighted, and Mike Carlinand Scott Peterson joined Chiarello to "make sure [he] didn't destroy the integrity of [Batman]."[1] Chiarello's initial thought - "to hire the very best artists in the business" led to he and Peterson assembling a wish list and contacting artists.[1] The series ultimately became "a creative and financial success," when the first four-issue volume was published between June and September 1996.[1] (There was also a free Preview issued in 1996.[2]) Each of the four issues featured several self-contained short-stories, all written and drawn by a diverse group of comic artists and writers, most of whom had previously worked on Batman comics. Each story varied in theme, setting, and tone (depending on the creative team involved), offering multiple interpretations of Batman - and, in some cases, his supporting characters - usually by exploring their inner pathos and relationships."
