Wonder Woman Is Awesome—But We Still Need a Black Superhero

Wonder Woman hasn’t been my thing since the last time Lynda Carter laced up those high-heeled red-and-white boots, back in 1979. (I know they didn’t actually have laces, comic book nerds. It’s just an expression.) But the trailer came out for the new movie starring Gal Gadot, and I clicked on it. I agree with most people. She is Wonder Woman. Gadot looks like she could kick my ass without even noticing that she had. But I kept asking myself The Question.
