I want separation anxiety to be the venom and spidey movie
Seems like the new Marauders issue will focus on former queen of Wakanda Storm going back there for something

A secret flight. A long journey. A Thief and a Queen.
The beginning of the latest X-event X OF SWORDS is almost here, but that doesn’t mean we can’t give you a sneak peek at what the future holds for Marvel’s merry mutants and their next epic journey. MARAUDERS #13, on sale Wednesday, October 7 , is the fifth book in the X OF SWORDS event. You’re safe from spoilers, but here’s a look inside the issue by guest writer Vita Ayala, artist Matteo Lolli, and Edgar Delgado on colors!

I seen a video pop up in my YouTube feed using this artwork to discuss colorism in comics. I guess Storm was too light skinned for her liking

Their are a few artists who have been making her super light lately. One straight up looks like Charlize Theron in cosplay. Overall Africans should be on the darker tone if we are being real. Colorists tend to make black people all look light skinned/lighter toned. No matter the region. It’s something I’m very hyper aware the more I’ve been working on doing colorist stuff for art
Storm really shouldn’t be this light.

I mean technically she could be this light, as I have some Nigerian cousins and friends that are light skinned, but given her original depiction, lack of a light skinned or caucasian parent and not being an albino she really shouldn’t be as light as they make her.
But it’s comics so you also got her having natural straight white hair that can be styled into a constant mohawk despite her having weather based powers.
They made storm morrocan in some stories
Well in the first class continuity
She is not morrocan in 616. Her origin has not been rebooted… Marvel doesn’t do real reboots.

Her whole light skin issue is pretty recent and it’s been clearly on the colorist and not marvel themselves. To my knowledge colorists are pretty free on how the colors look
Movies
We are talking comics. The movies have 0 to do with the discussion at hand and is purely a distraction

I blame the modern computer coloring.
Sunspot in 80s/90s was brown then started looking lighter post 2000.

Why would modern computer coloring have anything to do with that? Your eyes haven’t changed.
I guess the colorist in charge of the colors is more accurate.
Those people seem to have the wrong frame of reference compared to colorists in the 80/90s.

I think it’s a misunderstanding of race and tones. I know do many people who don’t realize how dark Brazilians are. Just how common someone being as dark as Wesley snipes. So they think they are literally color correcting

Yeah media in general usually down plays how many dark skin latinos there are which leads to a whole mess of stuff such as the myths that they don’t exist or they are all of lower class and the usual BS. It is a problem which surprisingly was averted in Deadpool 2 by just not going for the dumb super white albino look the character of Domino was known for.
I love the character but it wasn’t until just before the 2010s that I found out she was supposed to be black. That is problem considering how long I have been reading and following comics.
This was video that popped up in my feed
She goes deep on the subject.

what i am saying hollywood is casting halle berrie, alexandra shipp, as storm. We got sunspot being whitened up.
But hopefully that was a fox issue. Because disney with black panther went into a whole different way with it.
So i kind of hope colorism does not continue
I also like that ned represents what most filipino american kids look like instead of like a skinny nerd. He is a fat dude getting that white nectar
