Dave Cockrum's original Storm costume is one of the true classics of the genre and nobody drew her to look as unselfconsciously beautiful, sexy and exotic as he could. R.I.P., Dave.<br /><br />2. Jean Gray was in with the "new" X-Men from Giant-Size X-Men #1 on up (she was rescued from being leeched by Krakoa and was there as a source of tension between Cyclops and Wolverine for a few issues, until she went all Phoenix in #101) and Kitty showed up in the first chapter of the original Dark Phoenix arc. Yeah, I'm a pathetic geek.Bunche (pop culture ronin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11831085937894725459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21349380346448478.post-7699958663435812072009-04-14T18:40:00.000+01:002009-04-14T18:40:00.000+01:00Cheers Nickolai!

Great idea to ethnicisize the shit out of Storm too; it serves the character well and make you look thoughtful and whatnot.
