[QUOTE=Odd Rödney;5393236]Ah, yes, of course!!
I forgot about the retro art in that issue, I love it![/QUOTE]
I didn't appreciate the art at first but I later appreciated it for the reason you mentioned. I'm all for nostalgia when done properly and I think it was in this case.
[QUOTE=Dipter;5393238]Very good idea. If Marvel is going to keep portraying Storm as lightning lass, might as well add some beautiful visual variety. I loved how Ororo's lightning in [I]Giant Size Storm [/I] was drawn with a wispy, smoke-like quality to it. It made it look ethereal, like she was blurring the line between energy manipulation and magic.[/QUOTE]
I'm sooooooooo over lightning lass I really am lol

Yeah, it is pretty great! I would like to see more art like this. We'll probably see more like that with that new 'X-Men: Legends' title exploring dangling plot threads from back in the day.

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5393237]I'm over the lightning honey honestly. I would like her do some tricks like her skrull did:

Ooh Yeah, give me this instead! And some new power usages too!

What are some issues that have confirmed that Ororo is immune to fire and hot temperatures?

Ororo's immunity varies based on who is writing her but it has been established that she is immune to weather effects, including lightning which burns at temperatures much higher than fire.

Thank you so much for all those examples! I was always confused because I think there have been some issues where she wasn't immune to her own lightning or someone else's lightning or electric attack so I wasn't sure what was considered the standard. Must just be inconsistent writing like you said.

It really did and I’m here for it! I started collecting X-Men comics in 1992 so I feel like the target market for this stuff!

you are welcome. there are instances when she has been hurt by her own powers but this is generally when her will, body or spirit has been damaged in some manner:

she experienced something similar prior to her punk phase (she was going through an internal turmoil) when she fought silver samurai and her powers backfired on her:
