Anyone notice how they've changed Storm?

Is anyone else annoyed with how they've been changing Storm's appearance over the years?

I mean she's African, black African... and it seems like to me anyway that in some ways that they do her in the comics and such that her skin tone has been turned lighter and lighter, a couple times it was almost white which to me is insane.

I'm not upset because they're just changing any old character, but because it's freaking Storm for crying out loud... who is fyi one of the MOST prominent characters for the black community. You can't do that!

It's not a good thing to take a character who is a very serious role model for African American people and change them all of a sudden, especially that characteristic!

I don't know if anyone else is upset about this, but I am, I think that the original Storm we had who was darker skinned was perfect... there was no reason to change her in my mind...

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.
