Overt Racism in Episode 5

Funny how the three artists who were kidnapped were all white (okay, maybe the one was Hispanic, but if so, he was Latino Light), and the crazy supervillain artist was black. Not just black, but a caricature that might have been appropriate on The Boondocks but certainly wasn't so here. I'd given this show points for Ben's girlfriend being black, her race being changed from the comics in the direction of more ethnic diversity (as opposed to TMNT, where the black junk-shop owner became a white TV journalist), but this episode shot those points and then some.
