[QUOTE=Jalysia;5210237]That's why I'm curious about next week's Marauders. That's when we will see the dynamics between the swordbearers, and some Storm/Death interaction. But a few things to note. In stasis, we see Death and Famine breaking into a temple and stealing a sacred sword, which is parallel to Storm breaking into Wakanda's weapons chamber and stealing their sacred relic--although Storm didn't go on a murder spree, she just knocked people out. After he steals the sword, he says this about the people who was protecting the sword, "They worshipped death", which may parallel to the Wakandans worshipping Storm as Hadari Yao. I'm not sure if he was speaking about himself or just death in general.
And another thing, one Storm's biggest stories is called "Lifedeath".[/QUOTE]
Ooooh juicy! Love this speculation. Also, it's interesting in the preview he already seems to have some level of respect for Storm and makes it clear that she doesn't fear them. It reminds me of all the previous male villains fascination with Storm.

This looks good. Though i love me some Storm her dying i guess would make sense in that given Giant Size Xmen i'm not sure she would choose to come back as herself but if she died and accepted that finality and turned into something new her Lifogy to herself would make even more sense.

After Logan playing with the Jott couple he wants something of substance. I don’t think this is going to happen but...Ororo joining in the poly fun? ��

You know this made me think, what if the role Storm is taking will cause her to amicably split from the XMen so to speak? Perhaps her time after this in the XBooks is just a goodbye tour. This picture looks somewhat tense. Kind of like friends getting at each other for a big decision one of them is about to make. Maybe it causes Wolverine to go down memory lane on his interactions with Storm. Maybe that spar with Calisto on the cover of Marauders is similar to this. Perhaps it's just two friends reminiscing before the departure. And the Children of the Atom, she doesn't have a sidekick but perhaps she represents something bigger to the next generation of XMen, much like Charles was the focus for the first generation. So maybe revisitng old stories to move forward...
On closer look, it looks like some shenanigans. Logan looks pissed and Ororo looks evil. Or maybe it's just the art.

It's different art from different books.
His costume is battle damage.
Thinking about it it would be an interesting twist if Storm is able to be brought back despite otherworld because of the techno virus she experienced. what if it uploaded a "Total" copy of ororo across realities when it transcended from her. That could be a cool twist.

So many possibilities, and that's what makes all of this so cool. These pieces are there for a reason and trying to figure out how they all intertwine is quite fun.

Well that turned petty real quick lol. It's a comic book...silly unnecessary stuff happens all the time. Honestly speaking, Storm and BP's marriage was just as forced and manipulated as their breakup and demise. I mean some of the retcons to Storm's lore to make things work out were somewhat deplorable and I can never forgive Marvel for making their prominent black couple a poster child of domestic violence. I mean did they really have to come to blows, did no one see the issue with that. So for me, though prominent, BP and Storm were far from being this ideal poster of black love a long time ago. And just to be clear, just because people find things to enjoy in a comic book doesn't mean they are unaware of certain problems and issues or buying into any kool-aid. It's entertainment after all.
I'm interested to see what this "Metamorphosis" predicted during X of Swords is supposed to be a about. the card showed Storm leading a horde of the undead. Maybe Storm becomes Queen of the Dead. It wouldn't be the first time Hickman gave a character the power to command the undead.....
Wolverine is banging Storm's best friend. It would look poorly on her and him to get involved. Nasty
I guess this coming next.. Maybe storm finds the real true about krakoa and moira, charles, magneto.

Hahahahaha, we don't do petty over here ma dawg. I'm kickin some common sense hahahaha doesn't matter if it's a comic book or a tv show or video game it's about logical story execution bruv, idc if you don't like Ro and Tchalla as a couple that's irreverent buuuttt when you force drama amongst 2 characters that are known to compromise and think logically well let's just say you don't get whatever the hell Vita did. And well when you got the x office making tchalla look like a goof ball and a prick of course the "black love" angle is thrown out the window but to me it's whatever at this point because i don't expect that from companies like marvel and dc. And yeah you're right, you can enjoy anything your little heart desires friend but guys like me look at things from a grey perspective so yeah take that however you want chief i made my point.

Hahahaha, A we all may be storm fans but doesn't mean we gotta drink from the same fountain (ha inside joke) we all got our differences right. I see bullshizzle i call out bullshizzle, sometimes makes me wonder why the xmen are even apart of the main MU when majority of "big" stories coming out that hut of rehashed narratives have no real effect on other main MU stories. Might as well just be writing fanfiction in a vacuum because it seems this continuity thing isn't working, I'm just super sayin.

I'm here boo. I'm just over all the games so I dont make it a point of going off on this site about the xoffices' shenanigans. and i swear people don't read comics. tchalla and ororo relationship wasn't forced but making ororo into a deceitful untrustworthy woman most certainly was forced. I had high hopes that coates writing would set the stage for bigger things for ororo within the larger mu world but of course whenever other creators show better use of her the xoffices have to do everything in their power to circumvent such attempts. but whatever I get to save money and for those who like it the mess that comes from them have at it. but based upon the marauders sell numbers for September it doesn't seem like many are feeling it.

I'm surprised that Marauders isn't doing better. While I have my issues with the poor use of the roster (Iceman, Bishop, and especially Pyro) you'd think that a book pushing Emma and Kitty would be doing better. It's definitely a better book than Excalibur, but that run is marketed as the base for X of Swords so I guess that's what's propping up sales.
X-Force is a better book and has a more marketable name so that checks out. Even New Mutants which is a much weaker book is still doing only slightly worse than Marauders. I think it might be the name for the book instead of the actual content, but it could be a combination of both.

Truthfully the X-office to Marvel would be like the Proud Boys faction of the conservative movement. They are out there and doing their own thing. Its no kind of accident that Storm has been so sorely disrespected just not as much as any other black mutant(especially black males) So much so that they even brought in a black woman to write an episode where Storm was narratively made to crap the dignity of people she would never do in character. As a bonus said writer even was able muddy up BP mythos just a lil bit more for good measure.

I get what your saying. Like i'm on the flip, i can't believe some Storm fans want her attached to BP at this point especially after she offered him up to another woman. And then i think and why would people want her linked to Tchalla and then mention a movie that yes made a billion dollars but also went out of its way to not only say, but for a good part of the movie show us anyone else can be Black Panther. I just don't see the net gain for Storm.

Well it definitely came across as petty since people who happen to enjoy something are supposedly drinking koolaid and diabetic. And I never said I didn't like Storm and BP as I couple, I actually don't care, but like yours, my point was specifically about the "logical story execution" of their relationship and that's what I haven't liked about the pairing. So this has nothing to do with whether I like them or not. As I said earlier, there were many things forced and manipulated in regards to both their union and demise and I don't feel like marvel has done a good job of handling or executing the relationship (Avengers vs XMen being an all time low for me). Speaking of which, Avengers vs XMen didn't necessarily show Storm and BP as compromising characters, so I can't say that this is what they are known for. You're right I can enjoy whatever I want and you can as well. It's entertainment. That's never a problem. However, I think we should be careful before we label people just for enjoying things we may not be. That's the issue.

Even though I'm new to posting, I've been following this forum for a while. I've enjoyed coming here and reading the differing perspectives on Storm's journey and development so that is one hundred percent fine with me. I agree with the continuity thing though and Marvel has had this issue for a while. The disparity between Storm in BP and Storm in the XMen has long illustrated this.

I do read comics and different readers can have different interpretations and it's been proven here on this forum that not everyone believes Storm and BP's pairing was a natural and logical state of affairs. There are different reasons as to why I said it felt forced and manipulated but to come to that conclusion I have to have read the comics in the first place. If we have a different conclusion that's fine.

Lol yes the inconsistencies are startling which is why I am not a fan of this couple. If done well and respected consistently by all who handle them I would be fully behind it. But given the factions of the marvel office, the best and most enduring romances tend to be those that are done in house. I'm definitely no fan of the Logan/Storm hot mess, but this may also be why some people react more positively towards it. Due to BP and Storm belong to different branches, their relationship often feels like the office struggles illustrated. It reeks of office relationships and deals. Sometimes the two sides love each other, sometimes they hate each other, sometimes they honor each other, and some time they troll each other. Storm and BP just seem to be collateral damage.

It seemed pretty consistent to me. Doomwar there needed to be a compromise and so storm made it because Wakanda first. AVsX There needed to be a compromise, Tchalla didn't make it, when Cap told him to sit down he took his seat. Looking at it objectively whether people want to say because it is the BP book or not Storm has always been made to fall in line when there was something else Tchalla needed to do. So it's a simple as she had something she needed to do and she expected the same level of understanding when one has a country to save. It wasn't imo some out of left field huge thing, i wish she would have burned the bridge forever to be honest but it goes to show what i've been thinking for a long time. When the shoe is on the other foot and understanding is needed unfortunately usually the female partner gets the short end of the stick. Oh well, them the breaks.
