Maybe that's a factor they were consciously trying to play up, that a small kid with no powers can still succeed. Makes for a great Afterschool Special. And I always felt that lSH *was* written for kids, moreso than any other comic, because all of the heroes *were* "Kid*, *Boy* or *Girl*.

I clearly remember reading LSH as a kid and not even assuming he was Asian. Either way, he's definitely undeniably Asian in the cartoon--if, again, a bit small and young... -------------- Original message -------------- From: Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I'm no so sure, Keith. I'm looking at LSH #37, written by Jim Shooter himself, and KK does look a bit Asian.

Did you see the one about Karate Kid? Aside from the odd way KK and some of the Legionnaires look way too young (and small), it was a really good show. KK was depicted as Asian in this show, but isn't he a Caucasian in the comic? -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Justin Mohareb" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A lot of the best Spider-Man stories are the ones from his high-school years. That's why they did the Ultimate line. I really like how they did the Enforcers. Much better than teh completely unimaginative way Bendis did it in USM. LSH is still enjoyable. But when did they reveal Brande was Cham's father?
