I know it is nearly universally agreed that Marvel and comics in general has a problem with lighting their black characters, especially Monet and Sunspot. But if Marvel ever created a standard which all colorist had to use, which characters would be dark skinned, medium complexed and controversially -dun dun dun -- light skinned? I'm talking about Beyonce/Aaliyah complexion, not Mariah Carey's.
Its hard to go be 60s-80s standards, because all black characters were colored the same brown shade. We knew Sunspot was mixed, yet he was the same shade of brown as Storm.

But with computer programs, all shades can be represented.
Would Storm and Oya be around Lupita Nyong'o's complexion or maybe as dark as model Nyakim Gatwech?
Would Cecilia Reyes be around Zoe Saldana's complexion or Rossario Dawson -- both are Afro-Latinas?
What about Joanna (Frenzy)? We see they tried to lighten her on the new S.W.O.R.D. series, even though the artist has stated it was an error and she and Manifold would be darker.
And there's Angel Salvadore, Cipher, Tempo, Locus, Starlight and the New Warriors Debrii (I think she's a mutant). Not to mention all of the men.
