This very badly planned survey was scheduled to end on September 30, 1970. Now, taking into account the time needed to manually process all those surveys, think of a character who could address the issues the kids were most interested in, and have a creative team create the comic for this new character to appear, only one character could have been a product of this civil rights tragedy.

Oh my God. You're right!
Well, at least that means that kids were at least 'fairly interested' in reading about black people. I suppose that's positive. In a weird way.
And for the record, Black People are cooler than Pollution and Space Flight put together!
If the survey results had been different, pollution could have been the new Green Lantern.
You know, I had no idea John preceded Jefferson.
