Is everyone's race the most important aspect of the story?[edit]

Every person's description begins with their skin color.

Other comics character descriptions on wikipedia:

"Batman's butler, Alfred Pennyworth, first appeared in Batman #16"
"Lucius Fox, a technology specialist and Bruce Wayne's business manager.."
"Superman is born on an alien world to a technologically advanced species that resembles humans."
"Harley Quinn first appeared in Batman: The Animated Series (1992–1995), voiced by Arleen Sorkin,"
"Cassandra Cain is a superheroine appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, commonly in association with the superhero Batman"
"Zheng Shang-Chi , also known as the Master of Kung Fu and Brother Hand, is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel..."
"Storm is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. ..... character first appeared.... Descended from a long line of African witch-priestesses,.."
"Falcon (Samuel Thomas "Sam" Wilson) is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. ...., and was the first Black American superhero in mainstream comic books."

Batman and Superman don't start out stating they are caucasian and caucasian-like alien. Lucius Fox IS black but the article didn't find that to be his defining trait. Storm has her lineage explained but he skin color isn't considered her super power. Falcon gets a mention that is deserved but it wasn't the first few words after his name or even the first sentence.

Why is this article written like the character's skin color are their superpower? Is is the central focus of EVERY story? Will they get to use negative stereotype powers?
