Remember when Storm #4 dropped and all the anti-T'Choro fans were pissed off because it was a Wakanda-heavy book and Furaha was as Black as a Shaft in Africa/Truck Turner double feature at Sheneneh's Sho Nuff Hair Salon? Well, y'all are never - and I mean NEVER gonna believe the new theory....that the daughter shown in Storm #4 - who clearly and repeatedly calls Storm her mother - isn't Furaha at all.

I...but...he said himself...*SIGH* Does it matter? Does it ever matter?!

Mind you, T'Choro fans were accused of copium even though the entire next arc was to take place in Wakanda and confirm T'Challa as king of the dead. Yet this take - that the daughter in Storm #4 isn't actually Furaha (because she so obviously has two Black parents) is perfectly acceptable. Why, this young woman is much too Black to be loved, just like when Rue from The Hunger Games "turned out" to be Black, much to the revulsion of fans who ignored the fact that Rue was Black in the goddamned book.

This isn't the first time they've denigrated the very existence of Black children, even referring to Storm and Black Panther having a family as "inbreeding" and refusing to call T'Challa by name. But this take is just...wow. I never thought I could be shocked into bewildered silence, but here I am.

For Tomodachi players, this pose isn't available in Tomo-Foto - it was a REAL pain in the ass to do in Photoshop and even worse to make in the Mii editor. But I think it came out nice! The closest thing I'll ever get to being an artist, that's for damn sure.

Princess N'Yami, Crown Princess Turkana, Prince Uzuri, Princess N'Dare, King T'Challa, Prince T'Wari & Queen Ororo. Note the children in plain school uniforms, not royal regalia - that's all Storm. 🥰

(edit: Stickied because Black children are NOT inbred and NOT to be erased!!! Also, I was thinking of T'Wari's eyes being green because of his powers, but I couldn't stand how it looked, so they're brown now.)

Note that all of these kids are my OCs. From left to right:

Prince Uzuri as Maggott, age 9
Princesses N'Yami and N'Dare as Eany and Meany (they're twins, age 6)
Prince T'Wari (age 3) as Sam Wilson (I haven't written his bio yet) atop Turkana's companion animal Ojiji
Princess Turkana (age 11) as Misty Knight

First pic is from T'Choro Hall of Fame artist byekcs, who has been featured here often! Bonus second pic of the family outside of their clothes is by Breen_Tomi (X). The updated ages are 11, 8, 5 and 13.

Notes:

• Uzuri was named after the Uzuri Tribe, which is Ororo's lineage (see Black Panther 60th anniversary special). He will go on to become Black Panther, but not king. Primary mutant power is animal manipulation.
• N'Yami (the twin in glasses) is T'Challa's birth mother's name, while N'Dare is Ororo's mother's name. N'Yami will become queen (but not Black Panther), while N'Dare will become a Dora Milaje general. Neither of them have powers.
• T'Wari is from an alt universe story written by Reginald Hudlin. He is a reconstructive surgeon who holds multiple advanced degrees (and is a bit of a live wire) Primary mutant power is plant manipulation.
• Turkana is the name of the 1st female Black Panther. Primary mutant power is spatial manipulation. She also has numerous sorcery powers (check her bio).
