@Wonderboy52:
Ok counterpoints
1) I see nothing wrong with the colors of his costume. Also, where did all you people learn your colors? pink and purple? that is not pink. maroon at the closest but certainly not pink. You're a gay "ethic" (i think you mean ethnic) person and you have a problem with those colors? why? I'm straight and purple is my favorite color. I wish they had kept his costume as badass as the other new costumes, as opposed to making him look like an oldschool campy hero, but i have nothing wrong with the colors.
2) Bunker. That's a pretty badass name. what's wrong with it? a bunker is strong. a bunker is sturdy. Would you have preferred they stuck with his old name "The Wall"? no thank you. that name was lame. bunker is simple. yet implies an unmoving fortitude.
3) a mexican teen who puts up border walls... the way he's been written so far, i barely see him as a "mexican teen", i see him as a teen, same way you shouldnt see him as a gay teen. Thats not how I see him at all. his power confueses me a bit because he seems like a dumbed down purple lantern, but his powers to build the walls come from his personality and character trying to break down the walls of the stereotypes that you seem to be trying to bind him to.
I do not see this as a publicity stunt. I see this as Lobdell wanted to create a character, and this is what he wanted. same as stan lee wanted to create characters and we got what he wanted. Creators create what they want. Not just because of a publicity stunt. And quite honestly, so far of the characters i've seen in the DCNU, Bunker has already become one of my favorites. So if you think nobody will pick him as a favorite, then call me Nobody.
