[QUOTE=The92Ghost;5083022]Gotta agree with you. GS: Fantomex wasn't perfect, but it was good, especially knowing that Storm will play a major role there and she will adventure in The World.
As always I loved this issue of Empyre: X-Men, I f*cking loved how Magic summoned all available psychics to Genosha, I wonder what her plan is, and seeing so many show up, it was really cool and intriguing. I am not too sure, but I think the fat guy at the left background is Shadow King, I am not sure who is the guy next to Kid Omega, but he looks really familiar.

YES!!!!
That’s exactly why Empyre: X-Men is fat Better than the Event. I absolutely laughed and giggled in excitement watching these characters coming out to help. This was Great.

[QUOTE=Devaishwarya;5082436][B][I]"neither does she"[/I][/B] clearly indicates that Storm died in that moment and...we see a new Storm body being healed in/by the Acanti who was then projecting her thoughts to the X-Men.
Claremont's hyperbole was very problematic and muddled things up unnecessarily.[/QUOTE]
If she was dead dead how did the acanti put her consciousness in a new body. Maybe i missed something about where the Acanti can pull souls from the afterlife because we know for a fact when storm almost died in Xtreme Xmen she went to see her parents when she was on the cusp of life and death and jean went after her to save her but found out she didn't need to and ororo wanted Jean to meet her parents.
If you heal a dead body it's still just a dead body in better shape.

She says she is about to die and the only way to heal herself is in the World...[/QUOTE]

Not to derail but... Has Nezhno and N'Kano ever met?

Nope. I don't think they have. Has anyone used him since the Priest run?

Uncanny X-Men 166[/B] say she wasn't dead yet. The Acanti found her body floating in space just before she passed on.
Edit...
It should also be noted that a computer mention that because of her mutant physiology Storm can withstand the extremes of space for 30 seconds before it does her damage. [B](Uncanny X-Men 156)[/B]

God please, YES, PLEASE! Make her finally ascend and update those damn statistics of her.

I think we are way far from that, Storm powers and she herself have evolved beyond most of us expected. Surviving Space, surviving death, surviving underwater pressure, breathing under water (which most likely means that she can breath also in space with electrolysis, and can create air and oxygen in space as well), and let me not start on her ascension as Goddess and her slowly accepting it, yet not wanting to lose herself.

Yeah, and I thought the blond chick is Emma, but she is Lady Mastermind clearly, no idea who she was until I read her man she is scary... and then I found out that all of those are questionable characters and villains, like 80% of them.
[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5083028]another storm friend on a different platform had mentioned it would be great to see her call out to Oshtur or Gaea for help instead of going to the world. had that been the premise I would have been going crazy. I never read any.of the Morrison stuff so maybe thats why I don't appreciate what I read today. but here's to hoping[/QUOTE]
Yes, please! I really want to see some interaction between her and Gaya, yes, give me that. I want to see how they will interact, having in mind that their powers are literally the same with a few exceptions.
[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5083035]I thought Magik today was the mvp. I thought she had a really good showing and it was good to see one of the generals in action in the capacity that was earlier referenced back when Hickman revealed their positions.[/QUOTE]
Yes, definitely loving her show-off, and what kind of power she has over Krakoa when it comes to War. If she summons all available psychics, then it means that there is War on-going and that is what it got me really, really excited for the next issue. Can't wait for it! 6 more days!
[QUOTE=LordAllMIghty;5083041]WHat you should be worried about. Magik summoned all the telepaths with questionable morals...lol[/QUOTE]
She summoned all available psychics, she didn't know who will show up! But hell yeah, loved the use of her War Captain Title, as I pointed above! Give me more of that sh*t! It got me really excited for the next issue.

Hmm I'm the real world a regular human could survive 15 seconds in space before losing oxegon and stuff and yet claremont's own narrative said storm was in colds that a regular human would die in seconds. But a computer says 30 seconds in space. Okay well I guess we all believe what we believe. Like butterflykyss I will rely on the body of evidence rather than cherry picking two or three lines. A computer also said storm had omega level potential but we now know she is in fact an omega. *Shrugs*

Indeed she did, but I think it was aimed more for the giggles than anything else.

that computer needs to be updated. clearly it was off in its analysis.
but joking aside, Claremont seem to at times to very inconsistent with her abilities. one moment she is immune and can't feel cold the next she talking about being cold lol.
[QUOTE=yogaflame;5083038]Not explicitly. I always thought this was a reflection of her body being regenerated in the Acanti/the general sense of ungroundedness she felt from all those weeks-months in space away from Earth/her internal disharmony over the killing of the Broodling/committing suicide(which most people don't seem to grasp about her galactic core feat; she let go after killing the Broodling to kill herself, in recompense for breaking her vow of no killing she made after she killed her would be rapists at age 12). So, while it's not directly followed up with, so to speak, it is connected to her powers going out of control in Japan a few issues later, which ended up burning a lot of her hair off, which was the impetus for her punk reinvention(as well as Yukio's, and to a certain extent, Callisto's, influence).

yes I thought it was explained her powers were going wonky due to her being away from the planet during the brood saga and her changing personality much of which started as a result of her resentment towards Xavier and joining the xmen. she was resisting this part of herself instead of embracing it leading to her inability to properly use her powers.

My comments was more to clear up the whole if she was dead or not when the Acanti found her...she wasn't.
The 30 second part was more something I just found interesting. I would assume that without air, Storm a the time of that story would probably die. Claremont had barely touched her true power then.
