Ororo Munroe: Storm Appreciation 2019

[Havok83]

I'm sounding like a damn diversity cliche at this point but my main problem with bendis was his x-run had like NO diversity. Almost none. But i see he checked himself at DC with Namoi. But in general i did like his run.

To be fair he created a few PoC children in his Uncanny run. His X-men trainees included Goldballs (latino), Triage (black), Hijack (asian), not to menion Morph (LGBT) and Iceman in ANX

I disagree. I think everything hit the fan after House of M.

Bendis didnt write the X-books until years after HoM. The actual event was a decent read. I thought his Uncanny and All New X-men were both good books. Uncanny got boring towards the end with that Malloy arc but I blame editorial and the mess they made derailing stuff for Secret Wars

[spirit2011]

so much Bendis hate but I gotta defend him. I liked House of M and prior the current era, I think the last time the X-books were interesting as a whole was when he was spearheading the line. The X-books went downhill when he left

I'm gonna say I agree, I liked Blue and Red, but they were fillers for Hickman. Bendis X-men still had top artists, it had direction until bendis forgot it
But house of M was a Byrn wanda meltdown repeat

I had many issues with Bendis at Marvel, and his X-run, but one thing he didn't do was have a str8 white team on Uncanny. He introduced several new mutants of color and utilized LGBT characters too (Morph).

creating minority and lgbt characters and using them in a prominent role are two different things but that is jmo.

I think he kept them pretty central and active in that run. Did I think their personalities were well-defined or differentiated? No, but that's typical Bendis.

I will have to go back and reread. I can't remember any of them having their own story or a story that was about them or anything meaningful to be honest.

majority of people i see saying the N word are black. Now i'm not sure if it is ok for black people use it

stop right there

nobody but us gets to decide what we say or not say


already got enough policing as is

Storm and Emma have a long complicated history but if we are sticking to most recent years, Emma has flip flopped on the X-men so many times that Storm simply cant trust her. She manipulated Storm in IvX and instigated a war with the Inhumans. She enslaved mutants in Secret Empire, including several X-men whom she used as her own personal attack dogs. She allied herself with the likes of Ms. Sinister and Bastion and unleashed Mothervine on the world which became a global catastrophe. She played the X-men in X-men Black. In Uncanny, she sold out mutantkind to protect herself and she manipulated the X-men into doing her dirty work, not to mention erased the memories of mutantkind from the world. Storm has every reason not to trust her and doesnt want to give Emma another chance at making her look like a fool. Lets also not forget all the digs and shady insults Emma used to hurl at her when they were teammates. She was a bitch to Storm

I'll add that she is somewhat responsible for her marriage ending. She lied to Namor sending him to Wakanda. Maybe that was her intent.

Really? I had no idea she played a role in that. I wouldnt be surprised if that was her intent bc alot of the digs she threw at Storm had to do with her marriage and being a queen
