I'd be interested to know what Chris Claremont was thinking when he scripted that piece of dialogue for Storm in the panel above...though not in a "Boy, what was he thinking, sort of way (just in case my words come across as judgmental). To my eye, going from the art alone, it does seem like Storm is talking to Peter, and most likely talking about Scott, but ultimately, the chosen words strike my mind's ear as redundant and, when given the all the visual information, extremely unnatural. To me, a no dialogue choice probably would have better served the moment, but as I mentioned earlier, it really does seem as if Storm might be talking. I can see how it might have been difficult to find the right words. Maybe something like, "Peter, I'm really worried about Scott" would have worked, but I'm not sure that's any less redundant than the actual published dialogue. JB, do you have any thoughts on this? Do you recall if you intended for Storm to be speaking in that panel?
