Matt Nable, Actor: Riddick. Available in: Paperback. As ComicsAlliance editor Andy Khouri -- himself an Arab-American who grew up in the Middle East and Southeast Asia -- observed today on Twitter, there is a kind of logic behind stripping Ra's al Ghul of his ethnic identity in mass media portrayals.

Like other people from the same region and background, he has also been depicted with pale white skin. The one-time rugby league player-turned-author is making a name on the small screen. Iconic DC villain Ra's al Ghul will appear in the upcoming third season of The CW's "Arrow," played by Australian actor Matthew Nable, the network announced Thursday. To put forth a villain with superficial similarities to that prevailing stereotype could be seen as offensive on the part of DC and its parent Warner Bros., particularly during the time Batman Begins was in production, when America's war in Iraq -- ostensibly over weapons of mass destruction -- was relatively new.

In the Arrowverse, Ra’s al Ghul is more of a title than a person.The name is passed down to each successor, the current one being played by Matthew Nable. Crucially, ever since his debut in 1971, he has been a distinctly non-European, non-western character, and culturally Middle-Eastern.
Meanwhile, in Andy's words, regular old racism keeps the hero roles away, leaving cable news as the one place Americans see Arabs, Muslims and other Middle Easterners regularly -- which is a very terrible thing, and causes the cycle of underrepresentation in entertainment to perpetuate itself.
