Storm as mother Mary to T'Challa's Jesus is a bit much, but people are sentimental I suppose.

I definitely see it now and i agree with your sentiment it definitely is a bit much. i think i'm going to choose the fool lane on this one and continue to think of it as a goddess sending her favored king on his way, makes more sense to me like that.

yea I've been watching a lot of videos and they are basically saying she isn't really worth it unless you t3 her and only really for PVE. she is basically a good character but not on the level of silver surfer, Jean, hulk good. they mentioned she can be guard broken easily and she is really slow.

which is fine bc there is only really one PVP mode worth playing and very few characters are useful for that. She is a decent support though so I should expect to see some more Storms pop up. She being a beast for WBU makes her far more useful than she was before

that's good at least I'm curious what the overall verdict will be on the build. im seeing a mixed reaction thus far

i love her ice abilities, she creates a vortex around herself that constantly creates and trows shards of ice, she creates an icebergy of sharp ice ascending from the ground like how iceman would and summons a lot of hail and snowstorms, i enjoy that she has an icy focus with her bright white costume, its fitting

Truthfully, that's not a bad look. She always looked like a white woman with dark skin.
-
Not always.
Byrne's version of Storm didn't really look like a stereotypical "white woman" (not to mention that White/Caucasian features are also quite varied)
I would say she only really looked "not Black" or more specifiacally "not Storm" was when Land was tracing her in Fraction's UXM run...where he was clearly using White women as reference for her face and body). Other than that, artist generally drew her looking like a black woman with beauty-full features.

No she hasn't. Oh, wait... You mean after her gradual whitewashing became normalized, right?

IA with this. Storm isnt a character thats been a victim of rampant whitewashing. By and large most times when we look at her, she is undeniably black, unlike Monet, who's mileage may vary

this straight up looks like taylor swift with a spray tan

At first I did not see Storm in that image.
Then only when it was pointed out...I saw Charlize...but that just means whoever photo-shopped that image should be fired for being very bad and incompetent at their job.
(There are actual Black women he/she could have referenced to create a more true-looking Storm image.)
That said, I know Black women who...if you photo-shop their melanin away will look like Charlize or Taylor. So...
-
I would just add that black people have various features including those that don't fall into what some would identify as "black" features such as some Ethiopians/Eritreans:

I take that as assuming she looks like an ethopian/Eritrean/Sudanese woman. they possess physical qualities were they are obviously black but not the ones some would traditionally affix to black people. also let's keep in mind that was the doctor's assessment. the cop clearly said she was black and there are numerous other claremontian scans that say the same thing :

That's the thing though...his point in that page was meant to emphasise (very clunkily) that she isn't racially "identifiable" by just looking at her features. Anyone looking at her as a child would think "...what?, child who are your parents? And where did they come from?"
She's supposed to be an amalgam of the more distinctive racial traits combined...at that age. At that age.
Which kind of makes some sense...as our distinctive genetic features are usually (not always) more identifiable as adults.

I think the only sure thing that makes Storm "Black" is her skin color...and that's subject to change.
I think her eyes were the easy way to tell her apart from other characters whenever she was drawn without color

I think that's been generally the case for many black characters though. look at monet and sunset and even gateway (though he is aboriginal but they refer to themselves as black too).

looking at that thread in more depth it certainly did go viral. I'm glad it did. these developers and artists even within the comics need to do better.
