Yeah, I was trying to think of people I'd do if not comics characters and came up with a few but it is nice to avoid the usual, for sure, as well as the threshed-over ground - e.g. I could easily do Jo from SPN or Cordelia (Chase or Vorkosigan, actually!) or Starbuck but, I mean, we already know how awesome they are (right?) Keeping it current means keeping it more surprising, I think, and it's also good from a pimping standpoint.

(Still super excited for your Lois squee though, did you know that yesterday was Lois Lane's birthday? #thingsilearnedfromtumblr)

Well, Hardison, Troy, Abed is three. I can come up with a few more POCs who are men who I'd do - Gunn, Charlie from TWW, Damian Wayne, Nightrunner, and possibly I could read up on Batwing - but I think you're not wrong that the Woman of Colour Who Doesn't Represent a Real Romantic Threat Because People Are Gross and She Gives Two Diversity Points, Checkit Out, We're So Diverse is a trope or could become one. (Hm, I wonder what TV tropes has to say about that?)

I look forward to a really savage DC-bashing lunch!
