“When I wrote the first one in 1953, I wanted Bond to be an extremely dull, uninteresting man to whom things happened; I wanted him to be a blunt instrument…when I was casting around for a name for my protagonist I thought by God, [James Bond] is the dullest name I ever heard.”
—Ian Fleming, on naming pop culture’s most famous spy after an ornithologist.

So if that’s true, then in a vacuum, factors like skin color should have no effect on anyone’s success. Right? And therefore, if you...

Some of them were created to tap into the blaxploitation craze (Luke Cage, Black Lightning), others sprang from from the civil rights movement (Black Panther). Some are positively bad ass (Blade, War Machine, the Ultimate Nick Fury), others are completely ridiculous (Black Racer, anyone?). But if you took a survey of all of them, one...

Luther's Neil Cross on Writing Black Characters
“It was [written] as a character, purely and simply, which is one of the aspects that attracted Idris to the role. I have no knowledge or expertise or right to try to tackle in some way the experience of being a black man in modern Britain.
