I'd disagree no BP fans read the comic for storm. And no Storm didn't gain it any new fans.
That's not it. I'm talking about as far as black heroes. She's a icon and really didn't mean anything until a Fantastic Four animated appearance where he outsmarted them. These days people kind of see him as a Marvel version of Batman except he's a king.

The Black Panther comic was featured in Do The Right thing before she was ever considered there. So again I disagree.

I don't know if you meant to but you just sold me on this book.
Me too. I had been meaning to check it out anyway but I'll definitely see if i can grab the back issues next time I go to the comic shop.

Colin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing are good writers even though all their Big Two books are either minis or get canceled fast AF :francis:

I'm a Black Panther fan. We don't fukk with Storm on this side anymore :camby:
Ultimate BP is pretty good. The main book ended.
Uhh, breh....I think you are about to drop Ultimate Black Panther in 1-3 issues if Storm is that much of a make or break deal with a comic book :pachaha: issue #2 literally foretold they are gonna end up together :dead:

I don't understand what you mean by popularity. With whom? Fans? Black Panther was selling at a time when X-Men was trash.
Black panther has never ever outsold the x men. In any decade. The only reason Marvel became a powerhouse is because of Spider Man and the X Men. And Storm's popularity as a African hero definitely stood out more than any character of color in any company.
