I can totally see that this happening especially when you look at who the story has centered around this far in hox. It's clear the leads here are Xavier and Magneto with everything expanding from this nexus. That said, I am enjoying the story this far and I hope Ororo is given some relevant development.

I think the fact that you have hope in this situation is admirable and beautiful.

She has a very pretty design, although I sometimes feel a way when I see characters from other mediums that sport Ororo's iconic white hair and blue eyes...facial aesthetic.

oh no lolol. I take it you have not drunken the kool-aid ?

I'm not naive though in all seriousness. the track record for the xoffices speak for itself. if we go based upon history alone ororo wont be doing anything but shooting lightning while adding nothing to the narrative.

thats how I feel about Polaris. At least Storm is unique within the MU (for the most part). They have no problem trotting out other green haired women, especially in stories/comics where Polaris could fit in

By the time players unlock her, the game is basically over.

Well that sucks. I guess its a good thing you can replay the game with your characters, but sucks that it takes so long to get her

yea that has been the crappy part not being able to play with her.

that said, wolverine is fun to play with, so is spiderman. they all have their perks. some of my least favorites right now are gamora and black widow. they suck lol

Lol no. I think my issue with the relaunch especially as it pertains to Ororo is that it feels inappropriate and misplaced. Other characters like Psylocke, Cyclops and even Kitty seem to have been elevated and to upper echelons in their development as characters and for all the hype that the House of X and its brother-title will spawn Ororo is still going to b stuck in the same rut that she was in before all of this. What are your thoughts?

Well mainly that this look always felt like it was exclusive to Ororo, kind of like the S symbol is exclusive to Superman but that's probably a bad analogy. It's probably me being ignorant but I can't recount coming across the documented existence of a black female character or dark-skinned female character that shared those exact same traits before Ororo was conceptualized so I sometimes feel like the designers are slyly plagiarizing one her idiosyncrasies.

Elena from SF. She is even from Kenya



She always screamed Storm to me, especially since Storm had a similar hair style in the early 90s

I love her character design. I hope she’s in more episodes.

Storm's cousin

Missed oppurtunity not having her in a MvC game where we could have gotten some interesting dialogue
