    That makes sense, but I'm wonder more if some are created to purposefully see if they could handle a solo through it's sales.

It didn't do well enough, and many people attribute it to being a half measure due to them changing the title from "Storm" to "X-men"(which is origially what it was going to be), along with some of the sales figures being screwed up in the first and second issue(IIRC). We were still thrown a bone a few years later, but we know how that all turned out. The early issues did sell better than all of the ones in WAP, so there is likely some truth to that criticism.
    Oh okay that's good to know about WAP, I've just got someone telling me Carol consistently sells better than Storm by pointed to her mini series (though they didn't mention WAP) and that mini sieries are created to see if she could handle a solo.

    Agree 100%

    I disagree on all your points, but this is Storm's thread so I'll just say Psylocke is like some Rachel Dolezal shit, and if anyone in mainstream consciousness (besides comic nerds) actually considered seriously what is going on there, Marvel would be flooded with SJW's, protests, and sanctions from China and Japan until they rectified Jim Lee's twisted fantasy from 28 years ago.

    Tyra is too spastic, and basic, to be Storm. Naomi with a touch of Iman is Storm perfection.

    Storm is a hero. And the feud between Tyra and Naomi started with Naomi. Tyra was the one who tried to fix the issue.

    Naomi is the one thinking she's better and more popular than Tyra. She was saying not good things to Tyra.

    Tyra is the good/better person between the two of them.

    Naomi is the fiercest model to ever walk a runway. Tyra wishes she had ever been half the model Naomi continues to be.

    I wouldn't cast either them as Storm because they are models not actresses, but in terms of physical looks, Naomi is serving almost perfect Storm realness.

By now Psylocke (Asian ninja made in the lab) has been around for much longer than the British version. We won't ever see a British version again.

    A young Iman, if she could act would rock as Storm. And Iman wouldn’t have to fake an accent.

    Storm’s mother’s family if from Kenya. Many Kenyans and some Somali speak Swahili.
