Think About The Ink presents;

Jamie Foxx is Electro in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Laurence Fishburne is Perry White in Man of Steel. As Hollywood adds switches white characters to black in their comic book movies, host Grace Randolph explores why comic books are having so much trouble with diversity themselves! Why do black superheroes constantly see their titles canceled? Is there no audience for black comic book characters? Can casting Jamie Foxx as Electro and Laurence Fishburne as Perry White trickle down to the comic book level at Marvel and DC Comics to help characters like Blue Beetle, Steel, John Stewart, Luke Cage, Storm and more? Think About The Ink is presented by Bleeding Cool.
