[QUOTE=BadBadBeans;5104013]When/where does she get the blade from Wakanda? I don’t follow BP unless something important pops up. Many thanks.[/QUOTE]
I dont think it has been established yet that she got the blade from them. i think it will be revealed in a later issue.
-
I don't know if i'm reading too much into this or it's all just coming together in my mind in an over the top way but i am feeling like somehow X-men Empyre connects to the Giant Size Books all leading up to storm. It could totally be a conincidence but there was so much here. Specifically is Hickman setting up a showdown between Scarlet Witch and Storm. Some inevitable fate.
A few things, the 30 days, now there is no way to tell if this story runs concurrent with the story about Storm's 30 days but interesting time frame. The countdown clock was very similar in some ways. The Tri crown taken from a godhead of chaos. Then it goes on to talk about how chaos covets order and seeks to corrupt while on the other hand a God Hood of balance (Specifically what ororo is as HAdari Yao.) will seek any opportunity to impose itself on chaos. And they both will want to undo wanda's work as much as she does.
None of this is probably going to happen but its fun thinking it might. lol
-
I dont think the two have any connection and it doesnt feel like there is anything being built up to have Storm face off against Wanda. If anything Hickman set up Wanda vs Maik here
-
I was actually thinking the same after Issue 1. But I think it’s going to lead into Wanda facing off against Krakoa and leading her to once again become a Mutant.

this is interesting and I think it would be cool if this all tied in together but I'm thinking the two events will probably not be connected.

It hasn't happened yet but it's a theory. On the cover of #13(?) of Marauders by Vita Ayala you have T'Challa and Shuri. The tagline is "A secret flight. A long journey. A Thief and a Queen". There's been a lot of speculation that she goes to Wakanda to steal an ancient sword from the kingdom to use in X of Swords.
-
I personally love this design of the sword, its clearly african, closer to a knife wich is her prefered weapon for years now, colour scheme is pretty to AND it looks well when she channels her powers into it

oh goddess. I hope they don't have her stealing from wakanda. tchalla would gladly give her a weapon if she asked.

may not but i hope it creates something new like maybe the god hood of chaos wanda robbed will now come for mutants and the god hood of balance has to step up.
Also the 30 day thing and the way it was counted down, it felt like it was a mechanism he could use to go back to overlap times in a correlating story. Either way a fun book that made my mind at least have some extra fun. lol

well ororo is the goddesss who preserves the balance of all natural things. seeing her abilities allowed her to defeat the chaos demon adversary, it would nice as you mentioned to see this aspect of her charscter come through to battle that chaos God. what is its name? it starts with a c i believe.

they didn't give a name, she was about to but stephen cut her off. I just think it would be really cool to go a giant sized Gods and Magic. Like the threads are there if someone wanted to connect them if that is not the intent already.
Excalibur dealing with Magic.
Nightcrawler doing a new religion.
Mutant Culture.
Godhead of Chaos and Godhead of Balance and the fact that he specifically uses godhead.
The tree in Storm's mind in giant size looks like a budding divine tree, something she would probably have to regrow in someways if her body dies and she has to start over.
Hickman saying something big is coming for Storm.
It doesn't feel like it was always intended but at some point it all fell together and they went for it. But again i'm just letting my mind wander.

life on one side and death on the other, equally balanced. somethings brewing.
