....Asian-American. Even though I'm embarassed to admit I know it, Jubilee's full hame is Jubilation Lee and it's been pointed out in the comic before (I don't think they want the writers constantly point out she's Asian). To your credit, Jubilee easily looks caucasian, but I think that can be chalked up to either bad artists or artists that didn't know she was asian (though I don't want to get semantical and say whit and asian people look this way and that).
Just wanted to say though, what was the significance of Jubilee's race (to Bigbrojav)? She didn't have an important or even worth-dignifying role.
Whatever.
: Let's see, In the Uncanny X-men comics I still have from her stint with them, she was white. In the cartoon she was white. In the Gen X books I still have, she is white. In the Gen X movie on Fox, she was white. On these cards I have (some kind of game?) she is white. Gee, the general concensus would be: JUBILEE HAS ALWAYS BEEN WHITE AND WHY THE FUCK DOES IT MATTER?
: Oh, and yeah, the Crow is definitely the best comic to movie adaptation.
