据外媒报道,DC漫画公司(Detective Comics)将推出新的超级英雄:猴王子(Monkey Prince),据称其形象则来源于美猴王孙悟空。
To celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, DC will
debut1 an all-new hero within its commemorative anthology comic DC Festival of Heroes: The Asian Superhero Celebration. The new anthology hits comic book stores and digital platforms on May 11, and with its release comes the first appearance of Monkey Prince.
为了庆祝美国亚裔和太平洋诸岛后裔传统月,DC漫画公司将在其纪念刊《DC英雄节:亚洲超级英雄庆典》中推出全新英雄。这部新作将于5月11日在漫画书店和数字平台上架,届时猴王子将首次亮相。
The new hero will appear in an original 12-page story "The Monkey Prince Hates Superheroes" written by
Gene2 Luen Yang with art by Bernard Chang.
这一新英雄将出现在12页的原创故事《猴王子厌恶超级英雄》之中,由杨谨伦与伯纳德·张创作。
在DC官网的介绍中写道:
Monkey Prince is inspired by the Monkey King,
legendary3 hero of Chinese
mythology4 and the classic tale Journey to the West. In Yang and Chang's original 12-page story, "The Monkey Prince Hates Superheroes," Monkey Prince battles and teams up with Shazam to defeat both the evil Dr. Sivana and a Chinese deer
demon5 spirit!
猴王子的灵感来自“美猴王”,后者是中国神话名著《西游记》中的传奇英雄。在这部新作品中,猴王子将与沙赞对战,并组团击败邪恶的希瓦纳博士以及“一个中国的恶魔鹿妖”。
根据DC官方放出的画稿,网友推测猴王子故事中将出现一位名叫马库斯(Marcus)的少年,以及一个类似猪八戒的角色,名为八戒师傅(ShiFu Pigsy)。
得到消息的微博网友们已然炸锅,相关话题在微博上成为热搜。
Many Chinese netizens said they only see "Monkey King" as their true hero instead of "Monkey Prince," and expressed their dissatisfaction with the character's "unhandsome" appearance and "
stereotyped6 Asian face." Some complained that DC was "stealing Chinese culture" to earn money in China.
不少网民认定只有“美猴王”才是真正的英雄,而非什么“猴王子”。同时,网友们对于猴王子“不帅气的外形”和“刻板印象的亚洲脸”也不满意。另有网友认为DC“剽窃中国文化”,又回过头来挣中国钱。
