[QUOTE=LordAllMIghty;5349074]Nice seeing Storm use a EM field to block an attack. I've often wondered how many times a character has to do something to be considered valid ability.[/QUOTE]
Agreed. I think I can site dozen instances (iif not a few more) where she uses her powers defensively, but never seems to get the cred because it isn't shaped like sphere. Today's showing is pretty epic.

saw these on twitter and thought it was nice :)[/QUOTE]
Great find! This reminds of the Storm/Jean interactions noted by Hickman during the HoX/PoX resurrection ceremony. I love that this man shows his knowledge of X-lore, but touching on key panels that X-audiences connect with (but may not realize it).
[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5349237]great explanation. this is exactly why she was able to execute her infamous galatic core feat![/QUOTE]
Agreed. It's been well established that while within a planetary atmosphere Storm imposes limits on how manipulates the elements in order to preserve the natural order of the ecosystem. In space the need for that restraint should be greatly lessoned, so I think seeing her get a chance to really cut loose with no consequences would be awesome. Or just, besides a great story/new role, even exploring the adaptability of her powers based on her environment.
Today's issue with her creating that insta-shield was pretty epic for me. It really speaks to all the things we've discussed about her abilties over the years. It's refreshing and revitalizing for me when these moments happen.
[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5349371]Ok its end of the day and want to recount her moments from the issue today's xmen issue:
-the cover was very appropriate. it had her on it and it featured her greatly
-she uses her wind to carry herself, cyclops, Jean, and smasher. before Hickman giant size storm issue we haven't really seen her do this like since Claremont lol
-her and cyclops do a combo attack with their lightning-opto blast. they weren't sure which of their powers took out the assailant
-storm uses her em field to block urr [who appears to be pretty strong]from killing xandra
-storm one shots urr with lightning
it wasnt a character driven issue but this issue is a continuing of the xwriters showing how formidable she truly can be and its just January!![/QUOTE]
Well said. The only thing I will add, which yoga caught as well, I LOVED the red on the underside of her cape. That should become her standard costume right there. This was a good read, good solid art IMHO, good balance for the characters roles in the story, and an intriguing seg way into what's next for Storm. Will this include the Acanti? Does she become an interstellar/universal diplomat?

[QUOTE=pkingdom;5349193]Storm being more powerful in space makes no sense with the whole 'Earth weather goddess' thing, but that's not much of complaint honestly.[/QUOTE]
A lot of higher end energy manipulators are more powerful in space. Its not just Storm who is more powerful in space.. Firestar and Polaris are also much more powerful in space as well. Also as folks have said storm is manipulates energy to control the weather. That energy sight of her is just so versatile.

Storm was never just an 'EARTH WEATHER GODDESS'.
Her powerset was even said to be 'weather' only being a piece of her overall potential.
She's just been BOGGED DOWN and written to poop for the last few decades.
Her potential surpasses that of just Earth.
Past feats tell you this.

I love the red under Storm's costume.

1. I thought it was a great find as well. I really do enjoy anytime writers find a way to refer to previous events in canon. so seeing that was especially nice. I wouldn't mind costumes and certain scenes from the being showcased in some manner.
2. agreed im hoping with what appears to be a space arc we see her adaptability explored as well as her being able to cut loose. as you mentioned space would be the perfect environment to play around with more obscure applications of her abilities rarely seen.
3. indeed beloved. it is very nice to see the speculation fans have had around her powers and even her being an omega be confirmed. I've had my issue with some of the hickman era depiction of her but those parts are really gratifying to read.
4. I didnt realize how popular the red was on the cape. I know I saw Rosa asking for it but clearly they were tapping into a pretty popular opinion in the regard. both of those questions would be really cool to see. I like the idea of her being an interstellar diplomat. I wonder does any of this desire to go to space tie in to her adventures in the Marvels as well.

A heads up notice about a Storm appearance that Marvel has NOT promoted for next month.
I do NOT know the plot or the story in question. I just have confirmation of her being in it.

Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda Novel
T'Challa faces the gods of his parents. Vampires stalk Shuri and a Dora Milaje in voodoo-laced New Orleans. Erik Killmonger grapples with racism, Russian spies, and his own origins. Eighteen brand-new tales of Wakanda, its people, and its legacy.
The first mainstream superhero of African descent, the Black Panther has attracted readers of all races and colors who see in the King of Wakanda reflections of themselves. Storytellers from across the African Diaspora some already literary legends, others who are rising stars have created for this collection original works inspired by the world of the Panther and its inhabitants. [B]With guest stars including Storm, Monica Rambeau, Namor, and Jericho Drumm[/B], these are stories of yesterday and today, of science and magic, of faith and love.

McKinney is doing Nubia's book that is coming out next month and Nikki Giovanni-A LEGEND in Black poetry areas. If Alex Simmons is WHO I think it is-he wrote the ONLY Chuck Clayton novel for Archie that is STILL sold out.

Well, that is very simple to depict. That is almost done comic page, you see the sliding shaft behind her, that is a waterfall and it seems she is flying near the top of it. On the right side, you can see another tree, so that definitely is a forest. I just can't remember where exactly I've seen that exact topography. And the top left angle, it shows that she was talking with someone since she at the front, followed by her flight or the scene which is shown to us.
In other words said, she is in the forest flying towards something or someone.

her time as an avengers was not even worth mentioning. honestly not sure why she was written on the team.
I did however like her stint as a F4 member. we saw her stun/hurt silver surfer when she wasn't fully powered by creating a atmosphere of hydrogen items. also this was when she was in a blissful marriage to tchalla. it was a good run.

well I honestly stopped reading the bendis avengers after a few issues so there wasn't necessarily one moment but her voice and utilization with the book was just lacking. seeing that she was filling in the elemental role since thor was gone I was expecting some epic characterization but nope that wasn't what occurred.

gold was absolutely atrocious. I have seen other bad showings including the era of Utopia but what made gold so bad is that the writer was a swlf-professed fan of storm but you couldn't tell from the writing.
the one time I thought bendis gave her a cute moment was when she took out that helicarrier

That I am not sure of.
I think those novels tend to stand on their own. However that does not stop elements from reaching comics.
I mean Miles's novel by Jason Reynolds explained why he has his mom's last name and not his dad's now former last name. I want to say some of that slipped into the comics.

Fantastic 4 with Ororo and T'Challa taking the roles of the Mr and Mrs since Reed and Sue were absent felt much more natural given the FF's history of substitutes.
As far as Avengers go, they are so conceptually opposed to the X-Men (until the Unity Squad), that it never makes sense for there to be crossover.
The one time I thought Storm fit as an Avenger:
