History FantasticRacism / Comicbooks

* ''ComicBook/LEGIONDCComics L.E.G.I.O.N.]]'': One of the story arcs in ''L.E.G.I.O.N. '89'' revolved around an alien civil war. Several issues in, a member of L.E.G.I.O.N. admits they can't tell what divides the two sides. Turns out they have different ''eye colors.''

* The ''ComicBook/AdventureTimeBananaGuardAcademy'' miniseries confirms hints elsewhere in the franchise that the Bananas are a bunch of racist fruit who consider themselves to be the only people fit for police work, and refuse to allow their women to date other kinds of Candy Person.
* ''ComicBook/AlexPlusAda'' has sentient A.I., who a generally met with outright hostility by society. Once, an android went to a concert by itself, without it's owner, and people ''lost their shit'' and destroyed the poor thing.
* In ''ComicBook/{{Amulet}}'', people who've been [[ForcedTransformation transformed into animals due to the curse at Kanalis]] are discriminated against in Cielis, referred to with slurs such as 'half-breed' and refused service in shops.

* As a child, ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} was exiled from his home due to people with blonde hair being discriminated against in Atlantis.

** Frequently, Atlanteans are borderline genocidal against people living on the surface. It's telling that in ComicBook/New52 continuity, Ocean Master's distaste for humans still makes him more tolerant than some of his followers. [[spoiler:Though Ocean Master would grow to reconsider his prejudices after escaping a surface-world prison and taking residence with a human woman and her son.]]

* In ''ComicBook/AstroCity'', Earthpride is an anti-alien hate group that violently attacks aliens and their human supporters.
* In ''BB Wolf and the 3 [=LPs=]'', a [[TwiceToldTale retelling]] of ''Literature/TheThreeLittlePigs'' set in the 1920s South, wolves are socially, legally, and economically discriminated against by a ruling class of wealthy pigs. The pigs demand the wolf protagonist's farm and murder his family when he refuses to sell, sending him on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.

* A TalkingAnimal versions of this trope occurs in ''ComicBook/{{Blacksad}}'': species isn't a problem in this world, but color is, as in literal fur color. The main two groups are Arctic Nation, [[ANaziByAnyOtherName a semi-religious association of white-coated animals with a stylized snowflake as a symbol]], and the Claws, a street gang of black-furred beasts. John Blacksad himself, the protagonist, is a ''black-and-white'' cat, so neither side likes him. Not much discussion is given to what they think of animals with fur colors other than black or white, though - the two groups mostly seem to focus on hating each other. In another Blacksad story there was similar tension between lizards and mammals (a mangoose ended up in a reptilian bar chasing a lizard that double crossed his boss, all the patrons close in on him).

* ''ComicBook/{{Copperhead}}'' takes place shortly after a war between humans and Boo's species. Boo claims that this is why he didn't get the permanent sheriff position: human bureaucrats didn't want an alien holding authority over a (mostly) human community.
* Inverted in the first issue of ''[[Creator/PaulCornell Demon Knights]]'', where Al Jabr (an Arab swordsman) is denied service at a European pub due to his race. Exoristos (a white [[Franchise/WonderWoman Amazon]]) sees this and asks if she is allowed service, and then angrily points out the bartender's hypocrisy when he tells her yes. She claims that despite the color of his skin, Jabr has far more in common with the white bar patrons than she does, seeing as how she comes from a mystical society of immortal warrior women.
* Exaggerated in ''ComicBook/{{Dinocorps}}'' with the Saurons. The Saurons are a group of dinosaurs who consider themselves to be "True-Bloods," and they hated how the other dinosaurs used so much technology to make their community thrive. [[BigBad Jarek]], the leader of the Saurons, sent an entire species into extinction simply because they weren't Saurons like him. When he wakes up in the present and discovers humans (or mammals as he calls them) have taken over, he ''immediately'' decides to kill them all too so he can rule the planet with fellow Saurons.

* ''ComicBook/FarSector'': The three races of the Trilogy appear to have some racism towards each other -- at one point, during a meeting, the representation of the Nah accuses the representative of the @At of being about to call them "meat salads."
* Natural-born cubi in ''ComicBook/FinePrint'' don't seem to have much respect for [[FallenCupid cupids who become cubi by choice]].
* In ''ComicBook/FiveWeapons'', psionics are ignored by the assassin community as superstitious nonsense and is refused the right to have their own weapons club.
* The crows in ComicBook/FritzTheCat.
* Averted in one issue of IDW's ''ComicBook/{{Ghostbusters}} (2013)'' after Egon tried using a gris-gris bag from New Orleans to save [[spoiler: Janine's soul]] from Viking ghosts and one of said ghosts accused Egon of using magic against them.

* In ''ComicBook/GothamCentral'', the generic term for supervillains is the pejorative "freaks," which is often extended to anybody with powers. Detective Josephine "Josie Mac" [=MacDonalds=] has the ability to "hear" inanimate objects, which is extremely useful when investigating a crime scene, but she fears how she will be treated if the other detectives discover this. As such, [[CoverBlowingSuperpower she frequently needs to come up with explanations for "hunches" and her "gut"]]. Combined with the fact that [[TwoferTokenMinority she is also black]] and [[NewMeat the newest addition to the Major Crimes Unit]], Jose Mac has some troubles throughout the series.
* Henry Pym indulges in a bit when he talks about Skrulls, which he calls an untrustworthy, treacherous and ruthless species while the Kree are a noble race even if they do tend to look at humans like they were cavemen. Somewhat justified for Pym in that he had just been rescued from captivity by the Skrulls and over the years he's worked with a number of Kree heroes including Captain Mar-Vell.
** The Skrulls as a species are often treated this way by the ComicBook/FantasticFour, ComicBook/TheAvengers, and other heroes, who generally see them as a faceless horde of AlwaysChaoticEvil invaders. During John Byrne's run on the Fantastic Four, ComicBook/TheThing flat-out stated that he had no qualms about suspending the standard superhero [[ThouShaltNotKill code against killing]] when the Skrulls were involved, at one point saying, "Heck, even the Nazis are nicer than you guys!" Later efforts to give individual Skrulls more nuanced personalities and motives have gone a long way. Notably at the end of ''ComicBook/{{Empyre}}'' Ben and Alicia Grimm happily adopted a Skrull girl and a Kree boy.
* In the ''ComicBook/{{Hellboy}}'' comics, some occasional anti-demon sentiment is present (well, that's to be expected). In one of the issues of the ''ComicBook/{{BPRD}}'' spin-off, an agent is called out for being a "speciest" after making derogatory remarks about [[FishPeople Abe Sapien]].
* For the longest time in ''ComicBook/JudgeDredd'', mutants were forced to struggle to survive in the cursed earth because they were banned from entering the Mega-Cities. When Dredd himself managed to overturn this law, he suffers a reduction in rank and civil unrest plagues Mega-City One. Then, 2009's "Tour of Duty" storyline involved an effort to relocate mutants to outside ghettos where they would produce food for normals, with Dredd himself being unofficially exiled as punishment for letting them in in the first place.
* Done pretty [[{{Anvilicious}} blatantly]] in "ComicBook/JudgmentDayECComics" with its orange and blue robots. They are identical but for outer casings and programming, but the blue robots sit at the back of the bus, recharge in different stations, live in their own sector in town. The human evaluating the robot society does not let them progress to space until they can get over that, noting that Earth was like this once, and only owned the universe after humans learned to live together. In the last panel of the story [[spoiler: he takes off his helmet, revealing that he is black.]]
* ''Kling Klang Klatch'' takes it to a whole new level: a town of talking ''teddy bears'' stews race hate, with a minority of stuffed panda bears locked in mutual disdain with the regular teddies. There are other toys in this world: everyone's got someone to look down on, if only the drugged-out raggedy-anne dolls.
* In the Franchise/MarvelUniverse the Kree are an extraterrestrial race that have conquered many worlds. The Kree are divided into a majority population that is indistinguishable from humans of European descent and a population with blue skin. The blue skinned Kree view themselves as superior to the 'pink' skinned Kree and dominate the high ranking positions in the military and government. The thing with the Kree is that the blue-skin Kree are what the Kree originally look like, the caucasian looking Kree came about later only through genetic engineering in order to break through the Kree's evolutionary dead-end (which was a failure), and so they see the blue Kree as 'pure-blooded'.
** During ''ComicBook/AvengersTheKreeSkrullWar'', the government proposed rounding up aliens living on Earth and forcing them into camps. After ComicBook/NickFury allowed ComicBook/{{Captain Marvel|MarvelComics}} to escape capture, he attempted to justify his actions by saying that he remembered the Japanese American internment camps from UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, and vowed never to let something like that occur on U.S. soil ever again.
** Similarly, Marvel Atlanteans have blue skin, but half-Atlanteans like Namor have the skin tone of their human parents (which in this case is Caucasian). In ''The Blue Marvel'', it's established that when Namor was growing up in Atlantis, the other kids called him "pale crab" and ostracized him for his color. His experiences are specifically compared to those of the Blue Marvel, a black hero who faced discrimination in his 1960s heyday.

** Gladiator is sometimes this trope, though it seemed to have worn off - he sent his son to the Jean Grey School. It may have recurred recently in him because of him being a ProudWarriorRaceGuy and the [[CurbstompBattle epic beating]] he suffered at the hands of the Phoenix Five; though his most consistent attitude is frustration (largely justified) at humanity's habit of poking fundamental aspects of reality with little regard for the consequences.
** Rachel Summers has a mixed relationship with the Shi'ar, following the extermination of all living bearers of the Grey genome. In theory, this was to prevent a recurrence of Jean Grey as the Dark Phoenix, on the grounds that the Phoenix seemed to like the Grey family - which, going by the fact that both Jean and Rachel had been hosts for extended periods of time, was not an unreasonable conclusion. She got on fine with Lilandra, deposed Shi'ar Empress (and usually, the Shi'ar's OnlySaneWoman), dated Korvus, and generally seemed fine with allied Shi'ar forces, only holding a grudge against those she held responsible. The 2013 ''X-Men'' series made it look like she'd developed this attitude when dealing with a high-ranking Shi'ar representative, blaming the entire species for the murder of her family, and he accused of her of such. However, as she explained, she kept getting pings of guilt from behind his psychic defences whenever she mentioned her family, and was pushing at it to see why. As it turned out, [[spoiler: the slaughter of the Grey family had been his idea, which he'd felt was NecessarilyEvil]].
* ''ComicBook/LegendsOfTheDeadEarth'': In ''[[ComicBook/{{Shazam}} The Power of Shazam!]]'' Annual #1, the Omuta, the indigenous population of Binderaan, are discriminated against by the ruling Science Council and the human population in general. [=CeCe=] Beck's father often claimed that they were a burden on society. They were generally regarded as being inferior to humans. Before the Science Council came to the power, they were used as slave labour in work camps. After they were freed, the Omuta were displaced from their homes and no effort was made to assimilate them into human society. Many of them had no choice but to beg for food on the street.
* In the [[ContinuityReboot post-Zero Hour and the revised "original" versions]] of ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'', human prejudice against "impure" aliens is repeatedly used as a metaphor for real-world racism.

* One of the story arcs in ''L.E.G.I.O.N. '89'' revolved around an alien civil war. Several issues in, a member of L.E.G.I.O.N. admits they can't tell what divides the two sides. Turns out they have different ''eye colors.''
* While not showcased nearly as much as anti-mutant sentiment, Marvelverse citizens also hate and fear [[JustAMachine androids]] like ComicBook/TheVision, usually with the same (or similar) [[TheSocialDarwinist Darwinian]] justifications. In an ironic inversion of the usual anti-mutant line, one anti-robot fanatic denounced Vision as NotEvenHuman, while accepting the Scarlet Witch as one.
-->Sure, she's a mutant--But she's still a ''person''.
** Anti-AI prejudice was examined during the 2019 ''ComicBook/IronMan'' series, "Tony Stark: Iron Man". Which ends with it being outed that Tony Stark has been an ArtificialHuman since the events of ''ComicBook/CivilWarII'', having needed to [[BrainUploading transfer a digitized copy of his brain]] into a bioengineered clone-body after ComicBook/CarolDanvers killed him. The government immediately rules that this means that Tony is ''not'' the original Tony and, by extension, ''not'' a human being. This means he no longer is permitted to own and operate Stark Industries, which is instead passed on to Arno Stark, who outed him for this reason. Sequel series ''ComicBook/IronMan2020Event'' revolves heavily around the RobotRebellion that this triggers, as the various AI of the Marvel World begin uprising to demand civil rights. [[spoiler:With Tony Stark leading them.]]
* ''ComicBook/{{Monstress}}'' has loads and loads of it. Heck, it drives the entire conflict of the series! The humans hate the Arcanics, the Arcanics hate the humans, both of them resent the Ancients, the Ancients often resent them and the cats, everyone distrusts the cats, the cats hate the Old Gods, and the Old Gods hate everybody. There's even racism between the Arcanics, as human-appearing Arcanics like Maika are seen as being borderline humans by some of the more animalistic Arcanics and treated with disdain (as animalistic traits are seen as gifts from the goddess by the Arcanics).
* Most animosity between species in ''ComicBook/MouseGuard'' is not this trope, instead being based on the very real problems of predator/prey relationships or acting as competitors or "pests" for other species. Breaking from this, there's the relationship between Bats and the other species. Bats are distrusted by the other species. (according to the Bats' accounts, this dates back to time immemorial, when neither side in a war between birds and land animals would accept their help, the birds considering them land animals because they had fur, and the land animals being suspicious of their wings) For their part, the bats hate the other species in return and [[BerserkButton will react with extreme violence to any suggestion that they're not trustworthy.]]
* The Termight in ''ComicBook/NemesisTheWarlock'' is the [[RecycledInSpace Spanish Inquisition IN SPACE!]] and will kill any and all aliens on sight. Even the main antagonist, Tomas de Torquemada is a descendant of the original Torquemada with a few rounds of {{Historical Villain Upgrade}}s. It is revealed that both Torquemadas are reincarnations of the same individual. Other reincarnations apparently include UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler. At one point Torquemada from the future meets his historical namesake and accidentally ends up in the torture chambers of Spanish Inquisition under the watchful eyes of the original Torquemada. While Torquemada from the future describes his exploits to the original Torquemada in detail, the Inquisition keeps torturing him. Torquemada finds the experience painful and traumatic. [[HeelRealization The original one, that is]].
** Torquemada's Inquisitors are faced with a dilemma. Having succeeded only too well in "purifying" Earth and the immediate Galaxy of sentient aliens, with nobody else left to kill, they wonder how to keep the machine working and sustaining the hatred and xenophobic fear which keeps them in power. Then they have the brilliant idea to go back to basics and purify the human race still further by selecting a new hate-group. The new pogrom is against people with red hair and freckles. [[note]]This refers to the often-overlooked reality that any bureaucracy always finds reasons to perpetuate itself; the Nazi death camps would not have said "well done, job completed" and wound themselves up when there were no Jews left. They'd have moved on to other forms of hated "subhuman" who were next on the list, as was seen with gypsies. The Nazis also had plans for Slavs and black people, who were not seen as being so high a priority after Jews. They were simply timed out by May 1945.[[/note]]
* When Franchise/WonderWoman and Franchise/{{Superman}} started dating in the ComicBook/New52, they end up crossing paths with the Olympian Gods (who in this continuity are Wonder Woman's biological family, as Zeus is her father). They express disgust that she is dating a being who is neither a God nor a human, and talk to Superman like he is an animal. However, after Superman kicks Apollo's ass, Strife changes her stance and starts swooning.
* In the ComicBook/New52, it turns out [[FakeUltimateHero Harvest]]'s true motive is aligned to this. He gathered superpowered teens and made them kill each other until only "the strongest" remain...and yet, doesn't seem to value the resulting "Ravagers" too highly either. [[spoiler: This, turns out, is because Harvest ''hates'' all meta-humans. His son was killed by meta-humans, so the crux of his plan seems to be making ultra-violent meta-human youth, sending them out into the world and then getting them all purged.]]
* Creator/JackKirby's ComicBook/NewGods lived in a city that was over the home of a group of bug people who were quite blatantly treated with direct racism by the Gods even after one of their own, Forager, became an ally.
* Aaron Stack from ''ComicBook/{{Nextwave}}'' was awfully 'racist' about how awesome robots are compared to 'fleshy' humans. It didn't stop him from trying to save them, oddly enough. In fairness, Machine Man (Aaron) has spent his entire life being the target of anti-robot prejudice, with people trying to kill him and viewing his life as valueless because he's a machine. By now, he has become very bitter (as well as seriously depressed) about it and can give ''at least'' as good as he gets in the insult department.
* ''ComicBook/{{Owly}}'' sometimes has undercurrents of this, with other creatures the eponymous Owly meets assuming the worst of him because he's an owl, who usually eat smaller animals rather than trying to befriend them. ''A Little Blue'', in particular, entirely revolves around the interactions between Owly and a bluejay that initially assumes that every action Owly takes, no matter how benevolent or selfless, has a sinister ulterior motive.
* ''ComicBook/{{PS238}}'' shows several (rather worrying) cracks in human-metahuman relations. On one side we have things like [[PhysicalGod Ultima and Sovereign Powers]] saying things like solving the world's problems is a purely metahuman business and actively discrediting BadassNormal vigilantes like The Revenant. On the other side we have things like metahumans (or at least ones with mental powers) being forbidden from serving in government or in the army if they have a secret superhero identity, the original [[PlayingWithSyringes Project Rainmaker]] and [[spoiler:argonite]] made by the baselines. And then we have things like metahuman discrimination against the [[FlyingBrick F.I.S.Ss]] for being the 'common and unremarkable' power-set with F.I.S.S being referred to by their 'number', [[TheCorpsIsMother Praetorian Academy]], and [[spoiler:what happened to Argos]]...
* ''Portals and Black Goo: The Night Shift'' is a ''ComicBook/TwoThousandAD'' strip about the MonsterMash living in modern London. Evidence of prejudice is built up over the first two issues, until the third has a sorcerer's nurse saying to his face that they should get back to the days of BurnTheWitch, and the police refusing to take a VegetarianVampire reporting VanHelsingHateCrimes seriously, until she mentions having to "protect [her]self", at which point they treat ''her'' as the threat.
* Robert Hellsgaard and his army of "[[{{Ninja}} Japanese stereotypes]]" in the ''[[ComicBook/ThePunisher Punisher]]'' Volume 7 Franken-Castle storyline. Hellsgaard had a "bad experience" with the supernatural, and in retaliation [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge kills every monster he can find]]. Indiscriminately. Even the good ones who just want to be left alone.
* The gimmick of Crux from ''ComicBook/RedHoodAndTheOutlaws'', a human bent on killing every alien on Earth. He has a special hatred for Tamaraneans, blaming them for the death of his parents after they were killed by the crash of a Tamaranean war cruiser, directly into their car, as he sat in the backseat.

* ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}'' includes Skrulls VS Majesdanians (Karolina's species) and Skrulls VS machines. The Skrull Empire (or at least, the outpost Xavin comes from) has been at war with Majesdane for generations. Xavin and Karolina attempted to end this using their ArrangedMarriage, but it did not take. When a group of Majesdanians who hold Karolina responsible for her parents' role in starting the war come looking for her, they find her relationship with Xavin disgusting. Their inter-species relationship was used as an allegory for homosexuality/interracial relationships and transgender issues throughout the comics run. Xavin, for his/her part, has trouble thinking of machines as equals, which causes some friction with her cyborg teammate Victor. It ranges from being unthinkingly condescending (calling him the 'house android') to being a full-on Jerkass, though she gradually gets better.
* Frank in ''Scarlet Veronica'' is racist against ''zombies''. He calls them "flesh-chuckin' grave apes". The fact that he himself is a FrankensteinsMonster and thus not too far removed from a zombie turns this into HypocriticalHumor.

* In ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'', the titular hero as a result of his experiences with Venom and Carnage eventually comes to believe Symbiotes as a whole to be AlwaysChaoticEvil. This belief holds up long after it's proven the majority of the Klyntar race is actually peaceful.
* Mutants are also treated as sub-human in ''ComicBook/StrontiumDog'', to the point that the only way they can make a living is by {{Bounty Hunt|er}}ing.

** ''[[ComicBook/Supergirl2011 New 52 Supergirl]]'' hated clones, believing that they inevitably turn evil, which proved unfortunate for Superboy, whose very existence revolted her - though she pitied him more than anything else. This turns out to be a learned prejudice, one held by Kryptonians at large due to the Kryptonian Clone Revolt. The events of ''ComicBook/HelOnEarth'' caused her to re-examine this prejudice and unlearn it, and when she runs into Superboy again in issue 38 and he's attacked, she immediately jumps to his defence.
** In the ''ComicBook/RedDaughterOfKrypton'' arc, [[Franchise/GreenLantern Red Lantern]] Zilius Zox, a spherical alien, don't like a lot non-round aliens. He disliked Green Lantern B'ox instantly just because B'ox was a living polyhedron.

* Franchise/{{Superman}}:
** Over the years, ComicBook/LexLuthor slowly morphed his hatred of Franchise/{{Superman}} into anti-alien human supremacism. In ''ComicBook/SupermanSecretOrigin'' he colludes with elements in the US armed forces with similar sentiments.

** In ''Franchise/{{Superman}}: Godfall'', the Kandorians are incredibly xenophobic and racist against all non-native Kandorians, especially Empireths, who are mutants with psychic powers as well as the typical Kryptonian powers under a yellow sun.

* In ''[[ComicBook/{{Swordquest}} Swordquest: Waterworld]]'', the air-breathers and the merfolk Aqualanians are on the brink of war. The pirate leader Captain Frost kills a snow-whale and strips it to the bone just to prevent them from possibly siding with the Aqualanians.
* One story from ''Tales Of Suspense'' involved a planet that developed two sapient species. One a race of air breathers on land, the other an amphibious race that lived in the oceans. One day, an air breather starts spouting racial supremacy diatribes, rallying for racial segregation from the sea-dwellers, and begins organizing hate groups.
* There's two levels of this in ''Creator/TangentComics'' regarding the Sea Devils, amphibious fish people. For one, Sea Devils are scorned by humans as freaks, while most Sea Devils consider humans disgusting and barbaric. However, there are dozens of different tribes of Sea Devils (shark people, shrimp people, eel people, etc), and there's quite a bit of racial tension between them as well.

* Sea Witches like Eez in ''ComicBook/ThirstyMermaids'' are considered to be [[AlbinosAreFreaks unlucky]] by other merfolk. Eez has it even worse for being marked by [[EldritchAbomination the Aunties]].
* In ''ComicBook/ToothAndClaw'' animals that live on the ground are discriminated against by those living in [[FloatingContinent The Seventeen Cities]]. The reason given by the main character's father is that "The lesser ones serve us as we serve the Gods."
* In Creator/AlanMoore's miniseries ''ComicBook/TopTen'', robots (or "Ferro-Americans") are second-class citizens. Pete Cheney, one of the main characters in the series, has clear anti-robot sentiments, freely using the term [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything "clicker", which is established as a major slur]]. When the robotic Joe Pi joins the police squad Cheney belongs to, Pete attempts to put Joe down whenever he can - however, Joe usually wins the resulting battle of wits. In a sequel series, Pete eventually loses his job after an unprovoked assault on Joe. Joe also has to overcome the prejudices of his new partner.

* Franchise/{{Transformers}} delves into this for the IDW run.

* ''[[ComicBook/TwoThousandAD 2000 AD]]'': A ''lot'' of stories, especially in the early years, featured humans who absolutely hated robots and would go out of their way to mistreat them, even when it ran directly against their own interests (such as when it was ''their own'' robots who they had obtained for their personal purposes). For instance, a group of space miners intentionally neglect to maintain their mining robots or provide them with radiation shielding, so they can take pleasure in hearing the robots protest and eventually break down... even though those robots were brought there specifically to mine in a hazardous environment, and not having any robots meant the humans would have to do all the work themselves.
* According to ''ComicBook/UltimateFantasticFour'', the [[ComicBook/TheUltimates Chitauri]] are apparently an outcast caste of the Skrull. Calling a Skrull Chitauri is insulting seeing as they're different.
* ''ComicBook/WarlordOfMars'' is so filled with racial tensions that almost no people gets along with each other, with the Red Martians in the receiving end of every other race, being treated as source of [[MadeASlave slave labor]] and/or [[ImAHumanitarian nourishment]].

* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman''

* In ''ComicBook/WhiteSand'', both Darksiders and Daysiders have a ton of predjudice against one another. Darksiders are quick to label the other side barbarians and don't seem interested in learning their culture, whereas Daysiders, especially Sand Masters, believe that Darksider ancestry poisons the bloodline irreparably.

** The Skrulls as a species are often treated this way by ComicBook/TheFantasticFour, ComicBook/TheAvengers, and other heroes, who generally see them as a faceless horde of AlwaysChaoticEvil invaders. During John Byrne's run on the Fantastic Four, ComicBook/TheThing flat-out stated that he had no qualms about suspending the standard superhero [[ThouShaltNotKill code against killing]] when the Skrulls were involved, at one point saying, "Heck, even the Nazis are nicer than you guys!" Later efforts to give individual Skrulls more nuanced personalities and motives have gone a long way. Notably at the end of ''ComicBook/{{Empyre}}'' Ben and Alicia Grimm happily adopted a Skrull girl and a Kree boy.

** Overlanders, four-fingered humans, were shown to be incredibly war-like and bloodthirsty. It's obvious both Robotniks did nothing to improve that image.
** Machines in particular. Naugus, on two separate instances, gleeflly ramped up the hate of them in Mobians, leading to a brief Civil War between Mobians and Robians (roboticized Mobians) and the AI NICOLE being temporarily exiled.

** Post ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'', an ongoing conflict stems from the amazon nation splitting into the Themyscira and Bana-Mighdall tribes. Basically perpetual war with men culminates in Amazonia's defeat and occupation by Hercules. After finally ousting his forces, one group of amazons seeks isolation from men on Themyscira, the other seeks revenge and gets kicked off the island for compromosing said isolation. While both groups soften on their stances, Themyscira regularly sending contacts into "Man's World", Wonder Woman herself being the most notable, the Bana-Mighdall realizing perpetual war with men isn't sustainable, the two tribes become embittered with each other after thousands of years of separation, Wonder Woman's lobbying being the only reason Themyscira even recognizes the Bana-Mighdall tribe as legitimate. Even then, the typical Themyscira attitude is that Bana-Mighdall are drunken violent savages that should be grateful Themysicira allows them to exists. Bana-Mighdall typically regard Themyscira as softies who should be grateful they haven't come back and conquered the island. Meetings between individuals on "nuetral" territory tend to lead to [[SettleItWithoutWeapons fist]] fights [[TakingTheFightOutside in the street]]. Prior to ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' most of The Bana-Mighdall were brown skinned West Asians and Africans with inexplicably lilly white Artemsis as their ''[[JerkWithAHeartOfGold comparative]]'' WhiteSheep, while Themyscira was predominately lilly white minus TokenBlack Phillippus. Rebirth significanly expanded the phenotypical diversity of both tribes; Bana-Mighdall is still the darker skinned one overall but dark skinned Nubia becomes queen and one of the WhiteSheep of Themyscira while lilly white Atalanta becomes Bana-Mighdall's founder.
** Rebirth also introduces a third amazon tribe called The Esquecida, who predate the Amazonia split but are themselves amazons only by loose technicalities; a South American moon god/[[DependingOnTheWriter goddess]] learned of the Olympians' plan to create amazons by [[ExactEavesdropping eavesdropping]] on the protogenoi Gaia and decided to take his/her own draw from this "well of souls", then the Esquecida adopted a migrant from Amazonia into their ranks, she happened to have a daughter while with them, and finally a punishment The Olympians dealt out to Amazonia during the tribe split started affecting The Esquecida thousands of years later, leading the bewildered Esquecida to trace their new problems back to their "distant cousins". Both Themyscira and Esquecida see each other as ignorant but {{noble savage}}s that just need education. The Bana-Mighdall resent The Esquecida for daring to call themselve amazons on such loose grounds and in turn hate Themyscira more for being so readily accepting of them after it took thousands of years for Themyscira to accept The Bana-Mighdall. The Esquecida for their part see The Bana-Mighdall as inexplicably hostile alcoholics, but view them with caution rather than contempt. The Esquecida are ready for but don't wish to start fights in the street.

** The ''ComicBook/DawnOfDC'' run of ''Action Comics'' introduces Blue Earth, a humanocentric terrorist group angry about United Planets propaganda and the "Kryptonification" of Metropolis.
