I literally linked a 70/80s comic panel with her being darkskinned. How do you look at that panel and say she’s brownskin?

You consider that brownskin? And does that look like the chick from grownish to you?

70s, 80s and 90s recent? Wtf is wrong with yall?

Storm being portrayed by lighskin mixed women is a fox thing, not a comic accurate thing.
Enough with the colorism bullshyt got damn :snoop:

He behaved alot more like Henry Cavil in the early days before the comic book authority came through and everybody toned shyt down.
Even the color that people complain was too dark on the Cavill suit look closer to his than the bright blue they bragged about "correcting" with James gunn

I don't any smiling smirking or winking at the audience like Reeves would do.
No he wasn't he was always "good old All-American boy" whatever that means for the time. He was never like the Cavil version...the character was always valiant and wholesome, with charm.

If anything Reeve as Clark was different, in that Clark was just the average everyday man of that time. He went from "man to Superman" i think was one of the early comics tagline. What Reeve did was exaggerate the everyday man to common goof, to overstate the Super part. It worked for Reeve and that movie. I actually think Welling as young Clark played it more classic like.

She wasn't dark skin. Dark skin Storm isn't something that happened until later in the comics.
I'm old:flabbynsick: , when I was a kid pretty much all black characters were the same shade of bunt orange. I never thought about who was supposed to be light dark or brown.

Even in the 90's, I don't think these white and Asian artists were worried about distinguishing different shades of black people.

Her color was whatever random color they gave her that day. Lol

Its cool breh, i'm past it now. Yall gonna watch superman laugh at the jokes, The first movie will do a billie and be celebrated. Then it trash in the sequels as they try to push the same jokes and yall get bored of it.
Making action characters action characters instead of comedians is what keeps them relevant. Comedy has a expiration date. Thats why as much as people love christopher reeves version. they don't often talk about the movies he did with richard pyror.
