P. Diddy Happy 'Hancock' Brings Us a Black Superhero
COMMENTS
That's my white boy back there answering the phone
I really have no words for this…
Obviously being white gives me no room to say anything on the matter, but something about this video just struck me as… strange, I guess that is the best word.
You decide as P. Diddy shares his love for Hancock. He praises the fact that we have a black superhero, how his kids can now see a superhero that looks like them, how he has a white guy answering his phone and he manages to do it by saying "fuck" no less than ten times. It's a sight to behold.

Here's a long list of Black superheroes… click here
It won't help you because you're ILLITERATE.
It's ok Brad, I'm Black and I can't stand him.
There have been Black superheroes featured in films by the way, Storm, Blade ( A Marvel Comic Character) and Spawn.
P. Diddy or whatever the hell he wants to be called nowadays is irrelevant.
Did I miss something important about the last hundred years? I thought color wasn't supposed to mean anything.
And since when has "motherfucker" become a compliment? Superman is referred to as just Superman, but Hancock, he's "Motherfucking Hancock". Ugh, I have a sudden urge to go wave a cane at some kids and tell them to stay off my lawn.
hmmm interesting im pretty sure there are more superheroes then just hancock who are black.
Come on P you lose the sincerity in all that profanity. Hancock is the first Black superhero you've heard of? You never heard of Brotherman comics? That book has been around since 1990! That book not only changed the way we as Black people saw how a black hero should be portrayed but it took place in an all Black world, so the entire supporting cast represented us to the fullest in a diverse perspective! Then there are Black comic conventions held in both Philly and Chicago full of independent Black artists and writers who are changing the face of the comic industry!
It may take people with the resources like you to help advance independents like them but Hancock is not my idea of a positive Black hero! I was not impressed at all to see a drunk, womanizing, self centered, lazy, child-dissing derelict as my hero! If that is enough to satisfy your palette brotha I then don't know what else to say than you need to read some research!
Respect!
I am happy as well to see a black superhero on the big screen. I've heard of the other superheros I just had no interst in them
