Eh, he would be better as Cyclops but cacs would flip a wig. Idris is too big of an actor to NOT be a permanent member of the X-plantation...oops I mean XMen who has no permanent black male members.

XMen is forever tainted in my eyes after the BP/Storm divorce AND making Prodigy gay. fukk em :camby:

See what they did to Darwin in first class. Like he couldn't adapt & survive that energy blast :stopitslime:

if it were monica lynne, it wouldnt even be an issue.
Storm never had a real love interest except for Forge.

Storm was the biggest black female in comics ans BP was the most famous black man in marvel, both were single.

Nobody gave a damn about Monica Lynn, BP needed his Sue Richards, and Storm was the perfect compliment.

But racist fanboys destroyed that notion, Im assuming you werent familiar with all the bytching and crying from racist fanboys concerning the marriage. And how offended they were when two iconic black characters got married.

I think this is the reason WHY you DONT see black couples in media, ANY TYPE of media save low-budget comedy films. Crackers and their apologists are threatened af.

just because they are the biggest doesnt mean they should be together. especiallyif they dont mesh well. people shyt on wonder woman and superman as well, because you can see right through that shyt. bp fans gave a damn about monica lynne. as for the bytching and crying, its because hudlin randomly put two characters together, and tried to make a big deal about it like it was finally happening. shyt was fake as fukk and most people saw right through the bullshyt. white fans could give a shyt less about two black characters getting married

That's a damn lie, the focal point of their bytching was about race. Cacs were bytching because it was racist to put a prominent bw with a black man to guise it up with "shes being taking out of the Xmen and put on the avengers" and shyt like that.

Storm had more character development and background during the marriage than her 30 years previous years of the Xmen being a background character, you kidding me dog?? They let Emma Frost and Shadowcat had more pull and prestige than Storm. But being married to BP was sacrilege?? And @flo (wench caper) seems to agree with you.

People shyts on Superman and WW because those two characters have almost 50 years of having a character that was their love interest in Lois Lane and Steve Trevor respectively. So hooking them up negates the 50 years of their own love interests, NOT AS THE SAME AS these two characters who had no love interests that was serious or famous prior.

Lynn was boring. A one-dimensional character created exclusively for BP. She had no history prior. BP needed his Sue Storm.

do you have a link? beause according to this he never planned to

PRIEST On BLACK PANTHER, Pt. 2: 'It’s Not Arrogance, it’s Competence'

Oh, and wandering off-subject again: No offense to my good friend Reginald Hudlin, but the whole point of the T’Challa-Storm relationship, as I saw it, was they would never actually get together. It was an ages-long unconsummated love.

Nah. He already died as the gold Viking dude. How they going to bring him back as an entirely different character in the same universe :mjlol:

They were talking about putting Donald Glover in Black Panther 2 when he was already in Spider-Man Homecoming.
