Talk:Fear of the Future (comic story)

Colourisation
Can it be claimed that this depiction of Yaz is whitewashing? It is, but it currently just says "Oddly, Yaz is depicted as having uncharacteristically light skin." Cookieboy 2005 ☎  16:08, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Personally, I do not think this is a case of whitewashing. To me, this feels like a production error, probably due to the printing process rendering inks in the wrong shade; you can tell the tones of the skin between Thirteen and Yaz are different. 📯 📂 17:11, 23 June 2022 (UTC)


 * About it potentially being a production error: the fact there is one single panel where her skin is suddenly way closer to her actual skin colour makes me unsure. WaltK ☎  18:42, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Whether it's a production error or an intentional decision, it just feels... off to me - and to my mother, too; she couldn't identify who it was. Cookieboy 2005 ☎  19:53, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * (also, I had initially only seen 2 images, at this link) Cookieboy 2005 ☎  20:12, 23 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I really do not believe intentional whitewashing would've gotten past the editors and the BBC. Hence why I think it's an error. But it is off, I agree. Perhaps a statement will be issued in the next few days by DWM on Twitter, clarifying the situation? 📯 📂 20:51, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I certainly expect they'll say something about it, seeing people's reactions on Twitter (a space they're known to patrol). Cookieboy 2005 ☎  20:58, 23 June 2022 (UTC)


 * So, what was the conclusion to this? Did they release a Twitter statement? BananaClownMan ☎  07:40, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
