DC Comics says there is no 'proper representation of minorities'; BBC News, 7/6/15

BBC News; DC Comics says there is no 'proper representation of minorities' :
"Graphic novels, comic books or animated stories - everyone knows at least one character from one of them, be it Superman or Spider-Man.
But the big names dominating the books and Hollywood are all white, says a Radio 1 and 1Xtra Stories documentary.
One of the biggest comic book publishers, DC Comics, says that the lack of diversity in publications is an industry-wide problem.
It believes there's been an increase in the number of people from different racial backgrounds interested in its content.
Dan Didio, who's co-publisher of DC Entertainment, agrees that there "doesn't seem to really be a proper representation of ethnic characters across the entire industry"."
