I don't know of many white guys who purposely bald themselves unless they're already losing their hair, sum1. Jason Statham is a good example of that. But I'm glad you're with me that it was unnecessary to do that. Comic book creators always try too hard to be cool, hip, and modern, and when they do that it becomes annoying because they seem desperate.

Foxx often trims his hair down really short, like in Collateral, but I don't remember him being totally bald.
