Mixed-Race Superheroes

A single-issue academic comic from Rutgers University Press (2021–present), Mixed-Race Superheroes explores the representation and cultural significance of mixed-race characters in mainstream superhero comics. Through scholarly analysis and original art, the issue examines how figures like those from DC and Marvel challenge and complicate traditional racial categories. It matters as a focused, interdisciplinary contribution to both comics studies and critical race theory, offering a fresh lens on the genre's evolving diversity.
