    He's always been an African American Albino. The incident that gave him his powers didn't change that.

    Why is it that every time an albino appears in a comic book, he or she is almost always a bad guy/gal- is this not a form of minority stereotyping that would be unthinkable for say, African Americans and Native Americans, Hispanics, Jews or others( Iam currently trying to redress the balance by writing a book featuring Marvel's "good albino", Seraph).

    Apparently the 'evil albino' is a common villain in other things too.

    The most racist comic character is Mandrail. This dude was essentially a white guy who turned blacker, then eventually into a baboon. yeeea

    Think that comes from african folklore where they thought albinos were cursed or something.

    As for heroes, you have Darwin, though he's become somewhat of a villain lately
