Shrinking Ray/Rae (Invincible) - male in the comics, female in the show. Extra points for unlocking unique scenes and a romance with Rex Splode. Lois Lane (My Adventures with Superman) - typically white in most media, Korean in MAwS. (You could also argue she’s ginger in the Snyderverse, as opposed to her typically raven-black hair.) Nick Fury (Marvel, MCU) - initially white in the comics, which changed in the Ultimate Marvel Universe. Now, most people see him as Samuel L. Jackson.
The Battlestar Galactica reboot has a couple really great examples. Starbuck is still a cocky, horny flyboy, but with a ton of juicy bad habits and emotional baggage to unpack, overall a much more compelling character imo. And Colonel Tigh is the holotype specimen for The Mediocre White Guy, a whiny pissant with a major drinking problem and a codependent relationship who’s super unqualified for his position as XO, and is only there bc of cronyism.
Yeah no. Shrinking Ray sucks.
How dare they not redo the wojak pointing meme
