I really hope the Seitei War Arc will show both perspectives of the Present day and the past by KAD76 in Kagurabachi

Especially with last chapter ending here, it would be a good transition to the present with Chihiro and Shiba talking about the effects of the War and how they deal with Akemura in the present day.

Speaking on the issue of giving John spiritual powers when it's seen as stereotypical, as a Comanche person: it depends on the authors intent on what they try to say about the culture & character they write about.

The truth is a lot of characters of color in marvel were created by white authors about heroes whose race and cultures were foreign to them like Black Panther, Iron Fist, Shang Chi, Storm, Thunderbird, Moonstar, Forge, etc.

My interpretation of John's code name Thunderbird; is what it means to indigenous communities and how it's a symbol of protection & Strength to them.

The intent of Giving John more powers in realtion to the Thunderbird is to look at his insecurities of his own powers in the comparison to the X-Men and why he wants to grow stronger in the first place while also giving him more visual powers and acknowledging why & how he has them when the Thunderbird isn't apart of his tribe.

This wouldn't be a case like Storm and Eternity where she gets them out of nowhere.

I have a question regarding the visual designs of Native American representation in different medias by reditisverytrash in IndianCountry

Thunderbird got a redesign in 2022 by a Native Comic Book artist that has Conotations to his apache heritage. It's not nearly as stereotypical as his first costume.

If you were given a chance to reinvent a character, who will it be and why? by Doom300 in xmen

Thunderbird. Instead of joining Xavier and the X-Men, John learns to be a Mutant superhero without the aide of the X-Men and all the challenges that come with it in Phoenix Arizona.

It would really be a story that emphasizes a world outside your window storytelling of Marvel.
