Well, how many white men are there in the DCU and the Marvel universe who possess genius-level intellect and are top-level gymnasts and/or martial artists? Off the top of my head I can name around four or five. It might be stereotypical real world Asian traits, but in the world of comic books, the stereotype kinda goes the other way around. Most Asian martial artists we see in comics are straight-up bruisers who can kill a guy by breathing on him while the white men are the PhD-owners and genetic nuclear physicists. Maybe I should be offended by Ryan Choi's stereotypes but considering the actual context of everything here, I'm really not.

Point. But the fact that hes just Ray Palmer's asian counterpart adds to this. Im sorry. Hes exactly like ****ing Ray, hes unnecessary and unoriginal.

Oh, I can see how you guys want to look at it that way only. I get what you're saying. I just don't make a big deal about it since it's in a mostly stereotypical medium. I weep for this world constanly, too; believe me!

Ill pass you the Kleenex.

Have you read the first issue? I admit to not knowing as much about Ray's personality as I could, but right now these two seem very different to me.
