In America, we love our superheroes. This post was inspired by an article I read a few years ago which said that the Chinese should probably be given credit for inventing the superhero team. There is a Chinese folktale about 7 brothers who had supernatural powers and used them to overcome a wicked emperor. I was curious to know if there was any buzz on Twitter, so I searched for Chinese and superhero. These are the results.

When was the last time we saw a cute Chinese superhero from Marvel? Maybe she is the first and I’m glad to offer a cover to her first book. #aero pic.twitter.com/fdieXsvoRT
