Vathlo Island
Dc Comics, Planet Krypton's fictional location / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vathlo Island is a fictional location on the planet of Krypton in the DC Comics universe, notable as an early attempt to explain in-universe the seeming non-presence of black people throughout the universe.[2] Other scholars have called Vathlo Island out more broadly as a stand-in for different non white diaspora communities, such Hispanic and Latino Americans.[3]
