I LOVE those curls. Reminds me of Goddess Janet's recent look and Storm's post FotM 'do which I adored until she visited that tacky, tasteless queen of a hairdresser.

i'm cool with the Kickboxing but Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I don't see Storm as a gabbler type...maybe Jeet Kune Do. Lots of speed with some power there.
Now you got me wondering what fight style Storm practices.
We know she above your average Hand Ninja but below seasoned fighters like Wolverine and Captain America.

I always wondered where Storm ranks in terms of h2h fighting skills when compared to the other X-women. Like she's obvs better than Emma's bitch-ass, but I don't think she can take Psylocke in h2h. Not sure how she would do against Shadowcat.
-
I just reread the issue where Ororo channels the galactic core. I’d forgotten that she fried her skin off. She had best concentrate on honing her mystikal side.
-
Gambit, Psylocke(90's version), and Wolverine would probably win the majority against Storm in terms of hand to hand, but she could beat any of them in a great showing.
Kitty buffed with her ninja skills from Ogan would be in that same tier, but it's been so long since she has been used that way consistently that I think Ororo would still win the majority against her. In theory someone like X23 might be here too, but I've never really seen her fight without her claws(which I would count as 'powers'), so I'm not so sure. Honestly, given Ororo's natural dexterity and the fact that she's been trained since she was like 5, I think she still rates favorably against her(especially when you factor in reach).
None of the other X-Men really rank. You could get into people like Cable, Sage, Domino, Shatterstar, Nightcrawler, etc, but powerless Ororo has so many great showings(without guns or swords/knives), in terms of no powers hand to hand, I think she would still beat them in the majority. She's so adaptable, sneaky, and strategic.

She didn't fry her skin off. She's floating naked in space unharmed after she flares.

Besides, she was committing suicide for killing the Broodling, so it's not like she was [I]trying [/I]to stick the landing.
I know later they show her body without skin regenerating in the Acanti, but my best guess for that is that after she passed out in space, before the Acanti got to her, that decompression/hard vacuum took their toll.

No, she clearly gave herself radiation poisoning. Heat is just radiation.

If she burned herself, her flesh would already be burned in those panels. She didn't burn herself.

As far as I understand it from the Chernobyl mini-series, radiation burns can take a bit of time to surface. Storm has fried herself deep beneath the epidermal layer and then the burn works its way out.

The radiation levels of a million stars and planets would have vaporized her body entirely if we're saying she has no elemental resistance. Normal humans exposed to minor radiation won't notice the detrimental effects(like cancer) for days/months/years/decades, depending on intensity. Neither of those extremes seem relevant to this feat.

I didn’t mean to catch you off balance. It merely seems to me that her body would naturally compensate for explosive decompression anyway, conscious or not. It’s merely weather. If she’s immune to a million stars and planets, or whatever, she should be able to handle the bends. Either way, one issue she has skin and the next it has been fried off.
-
I will agree that the art is inconsistent and that the story does not specify the nature of her injuries that necessitated her being regenerated in the Acanti. Beyond that we are merely left to speculate.

So what we are all saying is that these scans further prove Ororo Cosmic durability. Gotcha

Yep, Ororo can tank the power of a million suns and planets without singeing her hair. :o

I've always and absolutely loved how beauty-fully blue her eye is coloured in that panel. Nowadays they don't use that shade of blue (it's always a pale "washed-out" hue)...when they actually deign to colour her pupils. They just go the lazy route buy not giving her pupils at all.

I agree that Storm being shown with all white/gray eyes is lazy and I feel like this happens much to often these days. I also prefer that specific hue of blue from that panel. However, I do have to say that I'm glad she is no longer portrayed with the cat-like pupils. I was never really a fan of them.

Good question about Storm's martial art of choice. Maybe martial art from Africa like dambe, laamb, or Zulu stick fighting.

[quote][B]AIPT:[/B] Last one. A couple of chapters into X of Swords, which X-Men character will everyone be talking about?
[B]Jordan:[/B] A couple chapters in… what X-Character… well, depending on how you define “couple,” I think there’s a good chance it’s Storm.[/quote]

From that exchange I'd say that peeks my curiosity but interest not really, though I am curious where this whole Sword thing is gonna play out along with the rest of the krakoa scene. Guess it's better than nothing.

For me, the cat pupils are an essential part of her. She was portrayed with this unique attribute from the very beginning and this made me more curious about this aspect of her mutation (if it was indeed an aspect of her mutation) and how she was initially described as cat-like/feline like, iirc. It set her apart from others at the time and truly made her special - at least for me. I wish that they had remained more consistent and true to this aspect of her character.

I dont trust Jordan. he said it depends on how you define couple so I'm hoping they ain't trying to ship storm with one of her fellow xmen colleagues. no thanks I will pass on that.

Hell, hopefully that's not the case given her status in that regard. Man, I find that concept in comics super corny and unnecessary like just because these catz fight on the same team doesn't mean they gotta pursue each other romantically especially the x men because from what I looked up they can't keep they're hands off each other and that's my biggest gripe about storm and the other x men in that regard (I see why Batman isn't a fan of relationships within super teams). I ain't gonna jump the shark but I'm curious as to how this whole sword thing plays out from a story stand point.

Honestly I could take or leave the slant iris thing Ro has going on, if you ask me being a black woman with white hair and blue eyes is unique enough for me.

Since the 80's, a lot has been discovered about ancient mankind, including a line of blue eyed, dark skinned humans that lived across Europe. So, Wein, Cockrum, and Claremont were kinda correct, by accident.

"An amalgam of all racial phenotypes" I don't know about that, plus the white hair thing is a small chance in being a feature on it's own without being tied to albinism, loss of melanin aka vitiligo or just growing older. The only "Caucasian feature" Ro has honestly is her eyes, this honestly makes me wish storms lineage was more explored because I believe her powers are beyond the origin of the X gene she posses which would explain her hidden awoken skill aka her Godhead.
