NO.

So then I was going through some old issues to see if there's anything fit for Fuck Yeah Amanda Waller, and then I found this page, and then I became SO UNHAPPY.

I HAD THOUGHT AMANDA WALLER WAS IMMUNE TO THIS SORT OF BULLSHITTERY WHAT THE HELL.

No, it's not that at least, it's just stupid, unthinking, everyday type colourist whitewashing. It's from a 90's miniseries, and in the *previous* issue she's coloured as a black woman. But it pisses me OFF because I STILL DON'T GET how that shit keeps happening. All the white folk have, like, the right hair colours. The costumes appear to not be randomly rehued. So it is unthinkingness in the face of research and character guides and. ????

Edit: Angela Bassett is playing Waller in the Green Lantern movie, so they've thinified her like whoa, but at least she's not a white lady.

OMG YES, to your edit.

Not that Angela Bassett's not awesome, but when I look at her? I don't think "...OSHI-, IT'S THE WALL!"
