Mark your calendars! On Sunday, September 9th Adult Swim will air the highly anticipated Robot Chicken DC Comics Special (at midnight). In an exclsuive interview, Robot Chicken writer and co-creator Matt Senreich gives us a sneak peak on what hilarious adventures we can expect featuring the iconic characters of the DCU.

Victoria: Why did you decide to make a special focusing on the DCU?

Matt: Were all big comic fans. Its really that dorky and simple. That and weve known Geoff Johns forever. He approached us about playing together and we always look for ways to play with him.

Victoria: Will the special feature all new footage or will we see segments previously aired?

Matt: All new footage. Nothing previously aired.

Victoria: Why is Superman such a jerk?

Matt: Is he a jerk? I like to think hes just a bit cocky and arrogant because he knows hes the most powerful man on the planet.

Victoria: Will we see any characters that have no yet appeared on Robot Chicken?

Matt: Lots. Lots and lots and lots. We just went crazy trying to jam pack this special with as many DC characters as we could. Obscure ones especially. And we create a few new one for DC lore.

Victoria: How long did it take to complete the special (in terms of animation)?

Matt: Probably about 15 weeks all in.

Victoria: Poor Aquaman seems to be the butt of all the jokes in the Justice League. Why does he get picked on so much?

Matt: The JLA look at him as not being able to do much with whatever powers he has. Hes an easy target, so the Justice League targets him. hahaha.

Victoria: Have you been reading the New 52 and if so, what are your thoughts?

Matt: I have been reading a few. Liking what Im reading.

Victoria: How long will the special be?

Matt: 22-minutes.

Victoria: Any plans to release it on DVD?

Matt: You know it.

Victoria: Is it fun creating humorous personalities for these legendary comic characters?

Matt: A dream. I get to play with toys for a living.

When I began cosplaying in 2006, I recall encountering another newbie cosplayer on the Internet. She expressed her frustration on the lack of Black characters there was to choose from. Many of us told her she could cosplay whomever she wanted but the girl said she preferred to cosplay characters within her race. This recently gave me the idea to create a Black Cosplay Character Guide for both males and females (just in time for Black History month). Now before anyone asks why a Latina is writing this article, I want to make my intentions clear. I am not limiting anyone. My goal to is to help those who are exploring options within their race.

In my early days of cosplay I must admit, I didnt have much help. Although I reached out veteran cosplayers, I found myself very much on my own. As the years passed, I met some amazing cosplayers who were more than willing to help and accept me. The costume community has given me so much and now that I have the experience, I am eager to give back. I have gathered characters and reference pictures of Black female characters from Sci-Fi, comics, cartoons and movies. In part 2 of this article, I will focus on Black Male characters. Below is my list, in no particular order.
