Thorm!
Because as a starting point for hooking up 2 characters go, "storm deities living in New York" makes a heck of a lot more sense than "two black Africans who have met maybe twice".
I always liked that aspect about how Storm's features were the distilation of the best of the various human racial groups, something that pretty much seems to have been tossed by the wayside.
I have no idea what's up with the medical gear failure though.
Storm's always been something of an eclectic dresser - the look in that third panel is particularly reminiscent of late 80s post-human/cyberpunk visuals.
Then there was the whole extreme punk mowhawk style. Did she and gladiator ever meet up and compare hair care notes?
The briefest of allusions to Storms suspected bisexuality perhaps -- certainly Callisto definitely has a thing for dommes on top of her preference for subby guys when you consider her history. Or just three ladies in a tentacle-filled hottub? YOU decide!
