Yes, I remember that issue. It was a BP/FF crossover where Ororo and T'Challa replaced Reed and Storm in the FF for a few issues. They were kind of "babysitting" their children and the rest of the team. It was definitely meant to be funny, but I didn't find it funny at all. He literally picked her up by her hair. Her arms were crossed and she looked pissed. T'Challa made some comment about Ben not going there but, I really can't recall exactly what he said.
I do find, though, that when a writer want to emphasize Ororo as a person of color or her "ethnic side," they tend to have her drawn in braids. As we all know, clothing, music, and hair are the easiest ways to depict ones culture. They are also the most shallow and lazy forms of defining culture.

I actually found it funny. As much as I love Storm, even I gotta admit she drawn/looks like a white woman with her straight hair and blue eyes.
I'm sure Monica and Misty have wonder too.
The only time I wondered was in the early 90s when she went from being bald headed to having a long mane of hair and there werent story reasons to explain it. She wouldnt be the first X-woman to wear wigs

Its a mutant thing. Lol
I still think Storm needs a BBF (Black Best Friend). At least let her go visit her grandparents.

I would love for Misty to be Storm's BBF.

I would say she would be it based upon their interaction in bp&c.
there is also shuri:

What do you all think of this look for Storm:

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;4682702]that's why I said I have to dig a little bit more for that love. there are thousands of pages and cbr doesnt have the best search function.[/QUOTE]
[COLOR="#000080"]Check out the link below. It's interesting to see who was saying that Storm could be in the next Black Panther movie, almost a thousand pages before the link you posted. [/COLOR]

As I've stated before I like the way Coates writes Storm in the BP comic. I came across this moment from Coates' The Crew and it gave me the feels..

Yup, this was a good issue in general and the interactions between the two were great. They clearly still loved and cared for each other but didn't know where to begin to make amends or even to reconcile their feelings with their separation. This is when Coates began to rebuild their relationship.

Yes, MK definitely counts. It would be nice to see Ororo with more sistas. She gets some of that with Okoye and Shuri in BP. It's clear she is good friends with each of those women, which I love. BP and the Crew had some great character interactions, not just with Ororo and Misty and Ororo and T'Challa but also with Misty and Luke Cage.
