"Character and creator diversity has been a major issue within the
comic-book industry since its creation, but it’s become an especially
prevalent topic in recent years as creators and fans from all races,
religions, genders, and sexual orientations become more vocal about
equal representation. For Comics Week 2014, The A.V. Club has invited
three comic-book professionals to discuss the strides and backslides of
diversity in the industry: Janelle Asselin (comics journalist and former
DC editor), Karl Bollers (writer of Watson & Holmes and former Marvel
editor), and G. Willow Wilson (award-winning novelist and writer of Ms.
Marvel)."

An excellent article on the recent progress in diversity in comics.

Share and enjoy,
