“…My television experience has almost always been writing for all types of ensembles, so it’s what I do best. That doesn’t mean that everyone gets equal screen in each story. In my opinion, that’s when stories can get into trouble, trying to service every character equally in every issue means that no one gets serviced adequately in any issue. You have to spread the main stories around the characters and issues. One issue or a several issue arc [of Teen Titans] might have a strong Wonder Girl and Bombshell story with a supporting story for another character, etc., etc. Then, in future episodes or issues, you move on to other characters and give them their moment/arc to shine.”
Plus: This “Where are the black superheroes?” piece doesn’t say anything new, really, but I don’t want to dismiss it out of hand because it’s important to keep the discussion going.
