I liked this one too by Arthur Adams, although I know some don't like that mohawk look[ATTACH=CONFIG]96275[/ATTACH]
Arthur Adams' Asgardian Storm was EVERYTHING!!!

[QUOTE=nj06;4955921]This is awesome. I wouldn't normally pick Naomi for Storm but this is definitely convincing.[/QUOTE]
I would never seriously consider her for Storm in any sort of acting capacity, but for still photos she certainly has the look. :)

Naomi has been, is, and always will be, my perfect physical aesthetic for Ororo. From the cheekbones, to the lifted brows, to the full lips and beautiful nose and all the way around with the mahogany brown skin. There will never be another like her, to me at least! I even believe she’s 5’9 which is close enough to 5’11 with that frame!

Ironically enough, this beauty is actually modeled after Naomi too I believe!
Just Curious do you guys think Storm Tanked this Lightning Attack?
A Future Namor Wields Neptune's Trident and Blast Storm. She screams in pain, but she says she's fine.
What do you guys think? Did she Tank this or No? This is Major X Issue 6

major x is an alt-universe or alt-future . alt-something. according to the marvel wiki its Earth-TRN757, not sure how reliable the source is but lol I digress

It's funny, Storm tanks Lightning attacks like Namor. The certain burst of energy catches them off guard, then they come back like nothing happened.

Jean is in her X-Men Red Costume and so is Storm. That's 616 Cannon.

I think she Tanked it. Even though she did scream in pain She showed no signs of damage or anything she says "I'll Be Fine" like that Lighting bolt didn't hurt her.

Plenty of non canon stories have used 616 costumes. That isnt definitive of anything.

So your saying this Major X story is not Cannon???
If so then Ok. I'll agree with you if you can prove it. I have no problem with that :-)
[QUOTE=Stormrocks;4951753]Enjoyable read. Thanks for sharing![/QUOTE]
you're very welcome!!
[QUOTE=Wind Rider;4951534]Absolutely breathtaking :)!
Was just about to post this. A nice high level retelling of Storm. Also, didn’t he co-write the X-Men ‘92 series (still pending for me to read)?[/QUOTE]
great minds think alike boo. and not sure about the 92 series.
I hope all is well with you friends. cant wait for new storm stuff to drop
Storm should have laughed at Alt Namor face, when he said he is unleashing the fury, and summon the Trition to her hand like it was StormCaster.
IMO...Major X was pure/poor fan-fiction. It adds absolutely nothing of importance or relevance to Storm's character (or any other character there-in, for that matter) past or present.
So...not canon.
You might feel that way, but the comic book was published. At worst, it is an alternate universe, but they printed it, so it happened(and within the context of the story, it did seem to be 616, circa the Uncanny Relaunch(pre-Age of X-Man)).
And for the record, I loved Ororo and Nathan's will they/won't they period in the 90's. I would have liked to see an actual romance develop out of that. So while Major X was pretty crappy, I'm not against it on principal like some seem to be.
Speaking of alt characters, I've just finished the full Mutant X series on Marvel Unlimited. It was absolutely horrendous and a complete waste of time but the best thing about it was undoubtedly Bloodstorm. Looking back, I'm kinda glad she got another shot at a book with Blue.

Real Bloodstorm was a treat. New faux Bloodstorm was a mess. Mutant X Bloodstorm is also in one of the Earth X sequels if you want a little more of her, Paradise X I think?

So I skipped this when it first came out, but since I am jonsing for comics now, this scan prompted me to buy this digitally last night. I want my money back! This was just not the entertaining. And I say this as one of the few people who really hoped for a Storm /Cable pairing back in the day. I thought they could have made a powerhouse couple.
I read the entire series and I still don't know what Major X's powers are. He's the son of Storm and Cable. An omega mutant goddess and an Alpha mutant. Other versions of Cable are omega mutants. This guy should be off the charts powerful. Namor can be a worthy foe. This story was just blah.
In terms of this can, I think the trident is magical, right? As such I am OK with it doing something weird to Storm, but she has other weapons at her disposal. Lightning didn't work so try something else. No imagination was used for this fight.
The story was whack, but like, I could weave a great story out of those core elements(Cable and Storm have a son, Namor tries to kill him because of a future war with Atlantis). Liefeld is just not very good as an artist or writer.

Cable&Storm is a little weird for me. I mean I did enjoy them flirting around a bit. But I always felt it was in the same Boat as Her& Wolverine. If anything they just mesh Forge and Wolverine together. And then the whole Cyclops factor. It was just weird.
So Storm is Mother to Major X and Grandmother to Bishop!?
See, no . Too much time traveling and Storm ain't even go no where yet.

See not canon. The school wasnt in Westchester last year. It was in Central Park which was a defining change made in the ResurXion era. It was also called the Xavier Institute for Mutant Education and Outreach. Major X did some timetraveling in Liefield's fanfic, but it wasnt to our actual 616
Except the mansion was there too. Didn't Cyke and his crew meet up at the mansion in Westchester during that horrible run before Hickman(while the NYC/Central Park mansion was destroyed in the first part of Disassembled). So, I think they just built another one in NYC. Besides, the caption says 'in there here and now'.
[QUOTE=stormphoenix;4958050]So Major X IS actually Cannon of 616 Timeline???[/QUOTE]
Liefeld wrote it to be "canon" I guess...?
But I'll bet good money that none of the actual x-writers, writing HiX-Man's X-Men now...will agree or even care that in some AU Storm and Cable had a son. Because...again... not relevant.
Importance and relevance trumps "canon".

The mansion was blown up in UXM 3. The X-men then worked from the subbasement of the CP school but they never went back to Westchester as they were whisked away to Age of X-man immediately after this story. Major X would have never encountered them in the Westchester at the School for Gifted Youngsters as it was not operational at any point during ResurrXion
And no they never went back to Westchester in Rosenberg's run. The only time the school is mentioned is when they got their old uniforms back and Logan says he got it from the tunnels underneath the school
Cyclops and Wolverine literally met at the Westchester campus to fight all those racist bigots in Uncanny #11. It was in ruins, but that doesn't make sense either since the mansion in NYC was destroyed, not the Westchester one. And if Magik did teleport the Westchester mansion to NYC, why would she leave the subbasements(which have all the important X-Men supplies/gear)? And even if she did teleport it to NYC, who moved the ruins back to Westchester?

Major X travelled back to a pre-Disassembled X-men, and the X-men were operating out of the Mutant Education and Outreach school in Central Park, not the old Institute for Gifted Youngers in Westchester. Scott travelled to the Jean Grey school in UXM 11 and that was in Westchester. It wasnt much of a ruins. All we saw was a plot with snow covering rocks, but there was no destroyed building structure. Your post only reiterates that the Westchester school did not exist at any point during either time so Major X directly conflicts with the 616 continuity. The subbasement where the costumes was taken from was not clarified but it could have been from either location. That wasnt really an important detail. Both locations had them

Oh please, all continuity is a mess.
Major X was obviously written as if the X-Men he interacted with were the mainline X-Men somewhere right around Disassembled(let's say just before X-Man's shenanigans start off, but after X-Men Red).

Major X directly conflicts with continuity and it hasnt been referenced anywhere outside of that book since then. Until then, I will treat it as noncanon. I dont expect it to unless Liefield returns again and tries to make him happen

Hmmm you both make VERY GOOD arguments.
I agree Continuity is and Was **** back then. But this is hard to say.....
I have no dog in this race but just to be clear I thought that entire major x ish storyline was hot bull manure trash. that said, I'm sure the writer intended for it to be canon but I for one ignored it. just as I've ignored dickeys retelling of storms origin story.
