[QUOTE=Subliminally;5825617]There's also this one but I left it out because it basically puts all her power into a hammer which doesn't even exist anymore.

The Quote in the Battle should have been;
[I][SIZE=3]Korra: "Your No Avatar."
Storm: "No.....I'm a Goddess!" [/SIZE][/I];)
Honestly I know little about Avatar and while I went into the fight with Storm who I wanted and thought to win, I go worried after the breakdown of Korra's skills, the Avatar in no pushover by far. But after the explanation of Storm's feet's I felt much better being given both familiar and new feet's of Storm's I was not familiar with, especially the Cosmic Level stuff, I was comfortable again with our girl's chances, still was nervous during the battle, but after the smirk by the end Storm Gave I knew it was done, EPIC!
I saw this at the end of my shift at work today and it was a good way to end the work day, Congrats to the Goddess Storm for an Epic Victory I was cheering for to the Moments end! :D

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5824589]I must say after seeing the full fight even though many predicted the winner death battle managed to make the match pretty balanced. the rationale provide by the creators was also spot on which lets me know information about ororo power seemingly is well known (thiugh u saw commentary today where someone mentioned all she can control is lightning). why many continue to lowball her in battle forums always will baffle me.[/QUOTE]
Yh the creators were like storms power isn't just weather but "weather"

Why was Besty sizing up Bishop like that? She's gotta chill.
90s Psylocke was too touchy.
[QUOTE=Subliminally;5825363]Hey who knows, maybe this was her Goddess durability coming out to play. *Let me dream*
I also like at the end how Korra trapped Storm in rock thinking that without movement she was powerless. That will always be the Achilles heel in a Storm vs [insert avatarverse character] unless things change for them.[/QUOTE]
Like they really nerfed stork so Korra would actually fight it's for entertainment first and foremost do it makes sense. But at the end when storm grabbed the avatar abd one shoted her it proved that this was never a real battle.
[QUOTE=Wind Rider;5825476]Agreed. Her energy sight definitely eeds a revisit. I prefer power development of her weather manipulation as a defense but W/ the recent work in SWORD I do feel like an elemental form is the direction they’d take. That would also open up a whole new facet of applications. Imagine becoming weather anywhere…
True. I’m hoping Ewing will get Storm on a different roster/new unannounced title. Feels like too much potential loss storywise for these critical plots in SWORD to end unexplored.[/QUOTE]
Helions is ending and it has consistently been one of the most celebrated and most purchased runs of this new era.... But wolverine is still running and is even getting an "event"
Storylines doesn't determine weather you stay neither does purchase power like we would chalk that up to why sword is going. Looks like if marvel execs love you you stay and only two properties are of value to them xmen and wolverine. Sooner or later they would say this whole thing is ridiculous and force storm back to the xmen team. A very likely scenario.

yes energy sight im sorely miss and I would love a reminder for those who think she controls the weather on how her powers actually work:

she manipulates weather but that is a byproduct of what she is actually doing. energy manipulation is what is happening. sorry for the rant but the dm commentary saying her powers are random is so ill-informed.
[QUOTE=Subliminally;5825601]See I love that idea because they could intertwine it with her divinity. I mean imagine a planet light years away that Storm has saved and they worship her and she feels their praise so she sends her smiling face in the clouds.
Ever since I started getting into Storm and learning more about her I've wondered if they would amp her powers if she lost her physical body. As far as I know her only two limits are her physical body and any stress she puts it through while controlling the weather AND her strength of will. Now her will has always been supreme, so if they nix the body would that ascension also constitute a power increase?[/QUOTE]
yas i would say yes sub. storm has mentioned that her abilities requires an equilibrium of sort of the mind body and spirit. if any of those are off it could result in unexpected displays of her powers as we saw before she went punk. her body is a very important part in how her natural powers behave but removing that piece could/would allow hr to reach powers she never ever dreamt she could control.

avatar is one of my all time favorite shows. now avatar especially in the avatar state is no joke. I think the problem that I believe the video adequately captured is that the avatar has at best maybe continent level feats while storm has planetary/cosmic feats. with benders they typically have to do movements with their bodies before the can cast their bending and their powers generally work on a local level. ororo doesn't have to be anywhere near you to send swarms of tornadoes down on you. I think the video did korra justice by nerfing storm in many ways to make it a fair fight.
the smirk storm did was one of my favorite parts. after being counted out and seemingly helpless she with less than a conscious thought sent a wave a lightning bolts atop korra setting the patth for ororos win. thank you cj for the commentary, even though predictable it was nice to see storm win this.

LMBO! at Storm tanking being smashed between those massive pieces of earth... Marvel needs to stop playing and give Storm a permanent EM shield, she's done it before and we've seen the effectiveness of such an defensive measure in the form of Magneto. It's the simplest solution to the defense issue and its proven effective.

absolutely. I'm glad we've seen some use of this but it definitely needs to become a main stay. ice shield, em shield, pressure shield or even creating pressure barrier that automatically repels her oppon8from her making her virtual unable to be hit. there are lots of ways they can do this.
Well people reign of x is over along with the year of storm as of spring destiny of x is going to begin. With her apparent last xbook coming next month what has been our favorite storm moment from reign. Mine was when she helped teraformed mars now arakko.

Well if this was the year of Storm I want a refund lol. Or at least half my money back! What did she actually do? All they did was tack on yet ANOTHER title on her already long list of titles. Besides sounding important at social functions, it really doesn't give me any sort of meat to dig into. I'm not saying it's the end of the road but with Sword ending and no concrete news on where Storm is headed I'm pretty much twiddling my thumbs.

I think the issue is SWORD is a comprehensive look at the role mutantkind is playing in the current Marvel space age. That’s not a bad thing at all but it means Storm’s only gonna get so much shine when you have to worry about Brand’s machinations against ORCHIS, galactic wars billions of miles away, and the other cosmic stuff going on. Storm has a valuable role to play in all that as we’ve seen but it’s not amounting to much other than power displays.
We still haven’t truly dug into what it means for her to be entrenched in the ancient warrior culture of Arakko outside her “proving herself” by dispatching irrelevant mutants that we probably aren’t gonna care about in a few years. And outside the Shi’ar princess fawning over her and a dinner with Doom we haven’t exactly seen Storm do too much as a stateswoman. There’s a lot there to her role as regent of Sol but it was never gonna be realized to the fullest extent if she didn’t have a solo to dig into her mind and set up compelling personal conflicts.
Bc right now it’s just competence porn from her, which was much needed after years of neglect but it’s a far cry from the multilayered story telling that made her iconic to begin with. Hopefully this new relaunch of the X-line has some sort of project based solely around Storm/Arakko since it seems they’re willing to give every mutant with a halfway decent “niche” a mini (like Nightcrawler or Cable.) But if we don’t get that I think people should accept Storm is just gonna be throwing bigger lightning bolts on Mars for the next few years, which is unfortunate but not nearly as bad as where she was pre-Krakoa.
Maybe Ewing turns it around though, he clearly understands that people want a competent Storm. It’s just a matter of building on that with actual characterization and interesting plot threads that aren’t reliant on her beating up Arakki.

I will say let's see what December brings. a little birdie mentioned storm makes an appearance in a book that drops tomorrow and that may have some implications in other aspects of the mu.

Ahahha lol on the refund but Im happy she slapped a doom for once -- I never knew I needed that even...but I agree if this is what X is saying as the year of the storm they owe us a half a year even -- Hellfire gala was like already July -- from the tease we got her sick and fighting as usual -- all it that half year and even before GSX gave me are nervous break downs and a lot of prayer sessions she wont be egging tombstone the entire 2021 -- well at least till July.....i said I forgive Marvel for the Logan focus since the TAS return announcement but seeing the incoming Wolverine titles list is giving me back that nauseated feeling -- again they held back, and all we can get from BP side now is one quick issue in January coz the hell BP might not want to have Storm back after x offices scored a steal anyway saying they want her back -- on the fucking background -- but sure sure thanks for the title -- now give us a solo or caveat if she is that "important mutant" Wolverine is gonna save -- well hold back its still back ground but come on -- who else? Moira again? Destiny? Wanda? Ugh...

I can understand that 1,000% and I don't blame Ewing for what I feel has been a mostly lackluster "year of Storm". Sword was never and should never been just HER book. Brand's personality alone is too big for that to happen and then you toss in the other players and it's just one big cacophony of voices all trying to be squeezed into a 25 page book. Someone is always going to get the short straw or have their piece of the plot watered down. But I agree, Storm's voice and role as regent is valuable and I can appreciate them giving her that agency. My (and I stress to anyone reading this [U]MY[/U]) thing is I like power and feats. I like seeing Storm do these amazing displays of power and/or precision. This is what peaks my interest in a book involving her. Now I'm not saying to hell with any character development, but if I'm being blunt, character development doesn't win fights in or outside of comics.
All good points and I agree especially about the solo. This is where I thought she would end up after the Regent role was fully announced since she has never been in a better position to fully flex everything she has. Power, personality, character... its all just waiting to show up and show out.
Yeah, I still have hope with Ewing. It's not as bright as it was when we first started but it is there and especually if we look back and see where Storm was before.

Lmao I'm glad you found me amusing.
But yeah I learned a bit ago that Wolverine is always going to lead the X-Franchise. I don't care what's going on or what event is happening that will change the X-men/MU or w/e, Wolverine will always be there and more than likely a key player.
And the power displays are all lightning lass with cloud hair and now, blizzard broad? Anyways as the "year of storm" I guess they laid ground work but with everyone and their grandmother getting a title even omega sentinel from the looks of it I am not really certain Ewing's book is not doing well and marvel is a profit making business first a story telling company last or whatever. They would only tell stories which the public seems to eat up and from how storm was treated badly in xmovies this has abd will affect comic sales.
That storm solo and I feel wrong for saying this doesn't seem to be in the horizon anytime unless the upcoming tvshow does very well, case in point wanda who was kinda unpopular and infamous but since wandavision especially has become hot cakes for marvel. So much so that trial has very high sales compared to both marvel and DC comics and the story itself is meh. Same goes for wolverine and basically all the xmovies and cardio with her movie and the guardians after their second movie though theirs have died down since in truth they are kinda meh in comics.
Anyways here is to the future solo title whenever it may be and I pray it at least comes in our lifetimes.
Chris said "so far all we have seen her do is throw lightning and summon hurricanes and winds, but she can do far more" this was like 1979! And her famous ancestral bloodline which we won't know much of till well...till.

When Duggan says something I seriously do not listen. I literally tune him out. I banish the thoughts. Because Duggan is all talk no show when it comes to storm. I mean he seriously had her for 20 issues and did literally nothing with her except make her absent lightning lass. The last issue was like meh to me. Oh and them the planet sized xmen stunt it was one panel she molded a climate. I really thought storm would play a more inntiative role in terraforming a planet seeing as she the only omega from krakoa that can connect to a planet. But oh well let's give magneto his power orgasm l guess. Sooo far his omega omega statement is still just that s statement. And I pray he doesn't get his hands on storm for as long as he writes in marvel... Amen. Especially after seeing what he did to nature girl.

The schism where it was he and Scott at logger heads didn't make sense fundamentally to me because yh they do not like each other but that was always tied strongly to Jean and his reckless way of living. on the other hand storm and Scott have very different styles of leading mutantkind and that has put them at odds many times in the past they literally had to fight for leadership once. So storm just being background wall paper in that even made absolutely no sense as this involved literal children! But oh well I guess if storm was his opponent he wouldn't have stood a chance of winning or getting his point across. Still trash though.
Also is it just me or does storm feel like a ceremonial figure head. And this doesn't even have anything to do with power displays and shit, but actually with the literal overarching plot. Because space isn't her shit from what I have seen brand is running that show and she as a council member literally wasn't doing anything as the council gets vetoed and double crossed all the time by its own members, citizens and krakoa itself. And she on arakko with the arakkii so they are earth protecting soldiers now? That's their entire purpose? Like bruh. What gives me hope is tarn and ludos logos look like they are not the type to play second fiddle when the main plot is literally THERE!

Anything from Duggan isn't something I'd believe.His best work has been fanservice. Emma, Kate and Jean so far, maybe Polaris will join them but Storm didn't.She was getting beat by Batroc lol.All his storm comments is pandering so far, pandering which he hasn't delivered in the actual comics.
Magneto makes sense to me, but Storm should have been more than what they gave her.Maybe she should have been the one regulating it all and giving feedback on what the planet needs to sustain life or smth.

Brand's personality alone is too big for that to happen and then you toss in the other players and it's just one big cacophony of voices all trying to be squeezed into a 25 page book. Someone is always going to get the short straw or have their piece of the plot watered down. But I agree, Storm's voice and role as regent is valuable and I can appreciate them giving her that agency. My (and I stress to anyone reading this [U]MY[/U]) thing is I like power and feats. I like seeing Storm do these amazing displays of power and/or precision. This is what peaks my interest in a book involving her. Now I'm not saying to hell with any character development, but if I'm being blunt, character development doesn't win fights in or outside of comics.
All good points and I agree especially about the solo. This is where I thought she would end up after the Regent role was fully announced since she has never been in a better position to fully flex everything she has. Power, personality, character... its all just waiting to show up and show out.
Yeah, I still have hope with Ewing. It's not as bright as it was when we first started but it is there and especually if we look back and see where Storm was before.
Lol!
I hope you're right because like I mentioned above, this is probably the biggest position of power Storm has ever been in and I'd hate to see it just sit there and collect dust. And spill the tea please! I need a dose of serotonin!
Lmao I'm glad you found me amusing.
But yeah I learned a bit ago that Wolverine is always going to lead the X-Franchise. I don't care what's going on or what event is happening that will change the X-men/MU or w/e, Wolverine will always be there and more than likely a key player.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=dirtynun;5826929]When Duggan says something I seriously do not listen. I literally tune him out. I banish the thoughts. Because Duggan is all talk no show when it comes to storm. I mean he seriously had her for 20 issues and did literally nothing with her except make her absent lightning lass. The last issue was like meh to me. Oh and them the planet sized xmen stunt it was one panel she molded a climate. I really thought storm would play a more inntiative role in terraforming a planet seeing as she the only omega from krakoa that can connect to a planet. But oh well let's give magneto his power orgasm l guess. Sooo far his omega omega statement is still just that s statement. And I pray he doesn't get his hands on storm for as long as he writes in marvel... Amen. Especially after seeing what he did to nature girl.[/QUOTE]
I cannot find any flaws in your arguments here. I'm really leaning in Ewing to give us something mind blowing in the last issue of sword. fingers crossed

No Storm in it at all except the preview page at the end but the book was great for that very reason. It was the most in depth i feel i've gotten about tchalla since i don't know when. I was suprised how good issue one is. His voice is VERY strong. And i think this is the FIRST time we are getting HIS view on the changes to HIS country. I will definitely be getting issue 2.

Whew!
*Sigh of relief* again thank you since there is one anniversary book in which one might say --- can we please stay away from future children that pops up out of thin air -- no I dont need that drama right now especially while struggling to get more storm content -- well here's to the future of staring into blank space....and returning to back issues collecting until Marvel get their shit together and move things forward for Storm...until then...waiting for the next big thing - Chibi Storm

Look, I'm not a very trustworthy person, to tell you to have hope and positive thoughts about the whole Storm plot, as I also got discouraged at times, but this year, the central focus was Inferno (Moira, Destiny and Mystique), the rest was another subplot that has been built up in the last two years. In my opinion, it's only next year, and all this slur on Moira's story will end.
About Storm and Al Ewing, everyone was emotional about his interview with the AIPT, creating a huge expectation that has not yet been fulfilled, Ewing said that he would write Storm as a Goddess, just like Coates. However, that hasn't happened yet, and like everyone here, they hope it really does, as it's the core of Xoffices when writing Storm as a true Goddess, it would bring tears to my eyes, but it's very bureaucratic, and most of the time part are always missing. I don't know what happened to the Xoffices, for Al Ewing to take a moment to write Storm, but he's already made it clear that next year there would be new stories, that the Arakkis wouldn't be played or forgotten, including Storm.
This year, it was just to add ground, for new stories, but I also don't totally agree with how it was approached, but with the conclusion of this year, I'm not so upset, because at least Storm had a good time, but she didn't is the standout, as are most of the other characters unfortunately. I'm not asking you to stop being upset, you have every reason to be, I'm a little bit, but I ask you to be patient and not get discouraged. I believe that new stories for Storm are to come.

Yh I am strangely looking forward to Peach's book rather last issue of sword. Like I don't even care for the last book to be honest but will purchase to support the goddess other than that really looking forward to what peach would do with storm. Also chibi storm is really cuuute.

Yh I feel you but I am going to go and read other books whilst marvel is doing its own thing. When the storm the arakkii and I can't stress this enough her ancestors and family arrive then I would come back to xbooks, only two more for the year then out.
Tchalla you better NOT be playing around with Ororo again with lying and being sneaky and ish. Ugh im getting throwback to that ridiculous issue Vita wrote. karma maybe ?

If what you think RE Tchalla being sneaky is true it stands to reason Tchalla had his thing going LOOOOOOONG before Marauders by Vita. I can't fault the dude though, a king doing king things just like Storm was a diplomat doing what was necessary (on the page) for her people.
Well in actuality hers was for the entire world/realm.

Oh this was definitely a thing before Marauders but I think he could make the case I lied or wasn't honest because I was trying to protect wakanda. The same logic she had with lying and stealing their sword.

And here I thought I just want them to talk and exchange banters...but after reading *spoiler* "soak in sin" words sorry I dont know how to do the yellow thingy yet --- uhmmm...nope -- i want that talk [B]now.[/B]...sorry for the impatience its just and if I may ask your thoughts too...cause My 1000 thoughts per minute post reading returned 3 times to a point of question: Was Storm also an agent previous to marriage with branching question as was that why we have secret summons from her time with Xavier school? Was there a mutant agent if not? What does she know as previous queen or post queenship? Coz you dont visit Mars -- if she has zero idea -- or yup thats the worst -- if she doesnt - and after all this time now really???
(;ŏ﹏ŏ)
-- ugh love how this is making me feel worked up...ahahahah coz out of the other 999 questions, one of them I could definitely slap Tchalla -- oh no you didnt and I want to evade it....ahhaha

Nah im not turning my back on Storm's -- I dont have the luxury to hold back now -- and still plan to see through a glorious exit from there -- they better....we waited this long for that statement to be just statement -- its better to see to it first hand before wrecking havoc or showering praises --im big on finales as they are just as important as first issues and red highlights where they crown a queen...
But the chibi is a nice souvenir on top of the adventure
