The comic was previously announced as being drawn by Logan Faerber, and was mysteriously pulled from the schedules with rumours about a possible Blade movie starring the character being to blame.

Last year we reported that Afua was invited to work on a Marvel comic already in the works and "I get a call from Axel Alonso, come in, rip the script apart, create the designs you want…."

Well, it wasn't Storm….
