If Earth-1 and Earth-38 do merge, then "James Olsen" will get retconned. No he won't. He is a part of the story. Whether you like it or not, this James Olsen is black. What is wrong with a little diversity. Him developing as a character and changing is good. If they wanted diversity, they should've used a character who was already black. There are Jimmy Olsens that are black. I have read a couple of them. My favourite being Superman: American Alien by Max Landis. He was also a homosexual. There was no real evidence of that in the book, but i guess in your head canon.
