Both?
I mean think of all the potential things Storm can do and how far her power really branches out and them remember what she's actually done.

yes the potential behind what she can do is to really Astonishing. blood bending. shutting off peoples brains hearts, controlling them motor functions. its truly scary when you think about it.

[QUOTE=dirtynun;5740742]Guys I need to ask you a question..... Does storm have direct control over electrons or she can only use them as building blocks to produce lightning.[/QUOTE]
Yes.

The million dollar question. How do we level set on what we think is good and reasonable power development that doesn’t make her too OP, but makes it explicitly clear she is an omega weather manipulator of the first order? Is it measured by her mastery being demonstrated through creative application? Is it battle testing her against a well known and credible threat worthy of someone of her calibur? It is a display of raw power that gives the 616 pause and trepidation at what the Regent of Sol is capable of and what it could mean for the course of the 616/long term status quo of mutantdom?
My desire is for all of these things to transpire and conspire to help chart a path for Ororo that leaves her elevated as an influencer (both effective and flawed) that helps build a mythos all her own in the MU.

Honestly the truth is power raw unbridled power capable of well unfathomable creation or destruction. An omega level mutant must demonstrate at least once a year just why the hell they are omega level if not then they must have their own house of M moment to last them for decades... Because as a ruler you must demonstrate power yes cunning and smarts is important but ultimately for the arakii to follow you as their supreme leader you must demonstrate that you are supremely just as powerful let alone the entire system with the eternals, the avengers the inhumans...etc.
But frankly I wouldn't think too much about it. What will be will be.

There's no reason why all three can't be applied in-stories.

I like this artist ^
Since Ewing’s Guardians has now ended, I’m hoping he’s the artist on the rumored [i][b]X-treme X-men[/b][/i] featuring Cable and Storm which will replace SWORD. Fingers crossed!

I think most of the X-books are going to end and be relaunched. That’s the rumor anyway, and the December solicits point to it…

The only exceptions might be Duggan’s X-men and Percy’s Wolverine, and possibly X-Force (though that one could maybe use an overhaul too). But as of right now it appears that Marauders, SWORD and Excalibur will likely end and be relaunched; and Hellions is already confirmed to be ending along with Way of X… though the issue of Onslaught Revelation that came out today by Spurrier and Bob Quinn sets up a new team which will probably debut in a new book after January with the whole line wide reboot.
The rumor is that SWORD will be relaunched as “something X-men (but not Uncanny) written by Ewing and featuring Cable and Storm.” Oh, and Tom Mueller (who designs all the logos for the current X-line) tweeted out part of a new logo with an X in it with the caption “XTREME CLOSEUP” which has people speculating that the title of this book might be [i][b]X-treme X-men[/b][/i]. That’s about all that is known at this point. This relaunch will likely happen in February or possibly even March (though I hope it’s not that long) as they’ve said in January that most X-books would be on hiatus during X Lives/Deaths of Wolverine weekly series which ushers in the new post-Inferno landscape for the X-books.

Ewing's never been able to move books for some reason. Doesn't help he has the unfortunate luck of constantly have to deal with tie-ins and the X-line is shifting to accommodate the loss of Hickman. I'd put him on the same level as Hickman in pretty much every category but for all his acclaim he hasn't gotten to that point where you put him on a book and you'll know it'll sell decently to great. Sucks to see but I appreciate Marvel giving him so many chances lol.
I highly doubt SWORD hits issue 20 with how sales are looking now. Best hope is Ewing repurposes the SWORD stories he has planned for the rumored satellite title that'll have X-Men in its name. A Storm/Cable-led Extraordinary X-Men team with a cosmic focus will probably sell a lot better than a book more about a cosmic organization where your lead is C-list Abigail Brand.

I hope you both are right. Ewing is such a good writer its a shame his books don't do better. Thank you both you for the information.
