Hooded Justice was portrayed as a white man in the source material (at least heavily implied without any indication that it was a diversion). I’d file it under retroactive continuity.

The way that the Watchmen series (taking place after the written works) retconned the identity of Hooded Justice (from the source material) was really clever. As a Watchmen fan, I thought that the payoff was tremendous.
