That's what I was saying, they were never a couple until after AvX
The GOAT Black Comic Book Superhero

Solo books that never last. And they damn sure haven't made her splash on the mainstream and DAMN sure aren't beating out Wonder Woman in popularity contests. Get serious.

It was some old obscure shyt that needed to be fleshed out WAY more. shyt was even briefly referenced in a few X-men comics. Hudlin fukked up by not taking the time to show them together more. They just ran into each other in one issue and got married without so much as dating.
The relationship itself was written fine but because they rushed into that shyt a lot of fans weren't buying it.

Popularity contests don't mean shyt, you should know that man
Hudlin just rushed it, I knew a few folks that had been shipping it before priest brought it up again that were pissed with the way it was handled

Priest wasn't even the only writer to go back to that relationship. Lobell mentioned it during his X-Men run and they were married during the Earth X mini series.
I didn't read the X-Men back then do you have any scans?

Richard don't want it with Aqua-god, you better go back and peep Darkest and Summit .Nightwing was merely keeping the throne warm. Kaldur was the hero. Richard was his number 2.

The fact of the matter is that the relationship between Storm and Black Panther had HUGE potential. They didn't need to be the black Sue and Reed and be together in every panel. Storm could've still a valued member of X-Men and Queen of Wakanda as T'Challa could've been a strong Avenger and King. Marvel just took a huge steaming dump on that marriage after their adventures with the Fantastic Four. It wasn't fair nor warranted to break them up in the fashion that they did just so that Ororo could go back to serving as Logan's Cum bucket. The marriage may have been rushed but the way it was actually handled I was cool with. It was AFTER the marriage where I feel the respect for both characters went out the fukking window. T'Challa is credited as one of the 8 smartest individuals in the Marvel universe. Yet he blames his WIFE for an attack on Wakanda that he himself had previous knowledge of
Where's the common sense in that? Where's the dialogue between husband and wife? Any-Man beat the shyt out Wasp on panel for years and that couple got more character development out if their relationship than Storm and T'Challa got. It was fukking ridiculous, disrespectful, and racist. fukk MARVEL for that bullshyt

Pretty much. We can go back and forth about whether or not they were rushed all day. In the end, they were together and could've been game changers in the Marvel Universe. They were the realization of Charles Xavier's dream: better relations (and ultimately peace) between humans and mutants
shyt, Xavier told Storm the significance of her marriage to T'Challa:
We went from this to the fukkery in AvX.
Fact is, many of the fans (a lot of X-men fans and.....well...y'all know who
) simply didn't fukk with the relationship. Others gave the relationship a really short leash.The worst part however was the writers. Outside of a selected few (Hudlin, Mcduffie, Priest, and others I may have missed), the writers, especially those from X-men didn't respect their union. They be having Storm randomly throwing shots at T'Challa and their marriage in the X Books. And of course, the AvX situation.
It's all bullshyt breh. Bullshyt!
When Storm debuted with the rest of the new X-Men she wasn't in the lead spot at all. She didn't get that push till the 80s when she became leader of the Morlocks and got the Mohawk. Up till then she was just as big a supporting character to Cyclops and Wolverine (and even Kitty Pryde!) as the rest of the X-people.
Luke Cage had his OWN series before Storm as did Black Panther. Storm is iconic no doubt, but Storm is part of a TEAM comic book, she's always been And always WILL be defined by her membership As part of a TEAM of X-Men. Black Panther has held his down his own series as well as being part of the Avengers. Luke Cage has held his own series down as well as being part of Avengers, Defenders, and Heroes For Hire.
