[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5163654]You're welcome beloved.
So there are whispers Anna Diop is being looked at to play a really big role in the mutant MCU. I can see her playing Storm:

Anna is so stunning I would not be against this choice, just like they did with Gal due to her really slim frame if they put some muscle on her id love this choice. Her skin tone, her beauty I do like this choice.
[QUOTE=Dipter;5162623]T'Challa and Ororo are like the Romeo and Juliet of the Marvel universe. Forbidden lovers from two separate worlds who have the odds stacked against them. The X-office doesn't want them to be together. A lot of Black Panther fans don't want them to be together. There is speculation that they might break up again during X of Swords, but I really hope that's not true. Just let them be happy for once.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say a LOT of Black Panther fans don't want Storm with Black Panther, since I don't know exactly how large Black Panther's fan base is. All I know is SOME Black Panther fans don't want them together, based on the comments that are posted in the Black Panther thread whenever the relationship is brought up. There are probably a lot of Black Panther fans who read the thread, never post in it and therefore never make their feelings about the union known.. Just like I don't know how large Storm's fan base is and I don't know exactly how many Storm fans approve or disapprove of the relationship. I have a feeling that there are a lot of Storms fans that never post, just lurk and never let their feelings/opinions of the Storm-Black Panther relationship be known.

[COLOR="#000080"]I'll take it further. Some BP fans don't want them together [B][U]because and if[/U][/B] their relationship won't be recognized across Marvel. Now, this doesn't mean T'Challa showing up in X-books every month or Storm proclaiming her love every issue in some poetic soliloquy. But it also doesn't mean that she swaps spit with te next mutant hero/villain to make an appearance. Plain and simple, respect the relationship.
Now, I posted a link about Storm possibly betraying the X-Men and your Storm Raiders don't have any comment? I am utterly shocked, shocked I say![/COLOR]

Agreed. She's terrific. She pulls of strength and vulnerability and poise and grace and she's beautiful. I can definitely see it.

It was already soundly debunked in XM 12

[QUOTE=Devaishwarya;5164500]It was already soundly debunked in XM 12[/QUOTE]
[COLOR="#000080"]It was all a ruse to lull the X-Men into a false sense of security while Storm prepares to slaughter the X-Men. They've had it coming for a long time now.

LOL! That would be all levels of Avengers-cliche.

As someone already confirmed we debunked this rumour 50-100 pages ago when all those leaks came out. We do not think that Storm is the backstabber.

I think creation pretty much confirmed the classified character is not storm.

Devaishwarya is male, actually.
And I believe a few members (more than a few, really) have me on ignore. LOL...it's all good, though.
[QUOTE=Kingdom X;5163812]I would hope that Marvel does her better than the way DC did. They gave her the WORST wigs/ outfits as Starfire and then wrote an unrecognizable character and expected fans to not tear her apart.[/QUOTE]
They did her so dirty on Titans lol. I'm shocked that someone even thought to put up those initial photos of her as Starfire. But they mostly fixed her in the most recent season and I think she's generally recognized as the strongest actor on the show so I'm happy for her. She'd be an amazing Storm so hopefully when Titans ends Marvel can scoop her up. She's got leading lady potential written all over her.

storm's tiara is just a classic and timeless unique design, to see it incorporated into a sword made me wish they had done the same in the current event.

Should Storm be an External?
I mean that's kinda what I thought she was when Introduce in Giant Size.

[COLOR="#000080"]A goddess and an External? The country would drown from the tears of joy from Storm fans.
But I don't think she should be an External.[/COLOR]
She a Goddess....an External would be a step down.
A Goddess and External would be all sorts of OP ridiculousness.
Dave Cockrum did originally intend for her to be an ancient, eternally youthful goddess, but given how whack the Externals have been in the comics, there is no reason she should be associated with them.
Xavier shutting her down. Wonder what he would say now

[QUOTE=GuiltyPleasure;5167377]Ahh, there is nothing like white paternalism to make you feel all warm and fuzzy. Smh.[/QUOTE]
Xavier genuinely didn't know that Storm had divine roots so I can't get too mad at him lol. But I guess one could argue that refusing to even sit down and understand Ororo or her people's perspective and just imposing his Western worldview on their society is a kind of white paternalism. Thankfully Claremont and writers since him have recognized that the faith and spirituality surrounding Storm has a mystical aspect. She can be a mutant and a goddess.
In other news, we got some cool hints about Storm's sword in X-Factor #4. Polaris is giving some cryptic prophecy and this is what she says relating to Storm: "Once goddess, once queen, one sword with which to split the sky in twain. Vibranium inlaid, a tempest contained, the wrath of heavens comes wielding a legacy."
That fits with what we saw in some of the first pics from Marauders #13, since it looks like the sword was created by a past Black Panther with Wakanda's vibranium. The interesting bits are how the sword contains a tempest and how Storm would be wielding a legacy. It definitely sounds like this sword has a magical enchantment of sorts (which is in line with most of the other swords). We see as much when the unnamed BP uses it to blast an enemy with lightning.
The "legacy" could be a reference to the Black Panther line itself, as there have probably been other Black Panthers that've used the sword since its creation. Or, this could be hinting at Storm's ancestral bloodline. We know that that the Hadari Yao has existed in Wakanda for ages, is it possible that one of Storm's ancestors is responsible for providing the magical enchantment? I know some people were disappointed about Storm not using the Sword of Bone but there's a chance her bloodline may still be related to Skybreaker in some way.
Jen Bartel also got to draw a Storm page in the issue

Lol. In his defense, he is only a man.
what's up with Alex Ross' page?? The 2nd gen X-Men (particularly Storm) look like they were drawn for a Marvel Zombies variant, but the O5 look normal....
