Yeah, perhaps it is harder to write for certain characters, you can do a lot to humanize a character, make them more universal and not some stock version of Black, Asian, Latino, and sundry other ethnic groups. However, there is quality expected within all brown, yellow, black and red characters that must connect with readers like them, some way of speaking, some shared cultural understanding that allows them to ring true.

And perhaps the umbrella that Asian covers is harder to match so its left alone unless its a more traditional character like Red Lotus, Silver Samurai, and the Ancient One. How does one make a character authentically Korean, Afghan, Cambodian, Indian, Japanese, Syrian, Chinese, or Vietnamese while deferring to roundness afforded white characters?
