We have reached a crucial crossroads when it comes to diversity in comics, and I fear that if things don’t change, we will lose ground. It is not enough to demand diversity in comics, we must support what’s out there now, or there won’t be more in the future.

Be sure to visit your local comic shop to pre-order David Walker and Nelson Blake’s Luke Cage #1 from Marvel Comics. In stores this May!
