[QUOTE=yogaflame;5480813]Gotta say I have not been impressed with Duggan's work recently. Marauders and Savage Avengers(did he do Cable too?) have been pretty basic, underutilizing their casts and not bringing much at even a plot-level. That said, he has given Storm some brief moments of something, even if mostly lip service. I guess I'll see how Planet Size turns out, but my hopes aren't very high. Does anyone have any suggestions on previous examples of Duggan's work that really worked for them?[/QUOTE]
agreed I haven't really enjoyed marauders as you said there have been some cute moments but overall his run hasn't done much for me. however, I'm going to see what these next few months will bring

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5480643]Duggan making it CLEAR its incorrect to assume the xoffices will not explore Mr. Coates development of Storm.

im gonna give them a chance to see what they do.[/QUOTE]

Duggan and the X-Office might explore it but I wouldn't bet on that exploration being anywhere close to what the Twitts want or expect.
-
[QUOTE=LordAllMIghty;5481526]Need repeating[/QUOTE]
right!!! there are some who LOVE to attempt and try to devalue Coates' effort by suggesting the xoffices are ignoring his work which makes anything he did to develop her character invalid but this makes it clear just because it has not been referenced doesn't mean it won't be. It was nice way to tell those distractors to shut the hell up and live for it honey!!!!

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5479982]I just read an article saying it was not confirmed yet. do you have another source?
I think if they were to do like a temporary boost with a cool down once you got to a certain character level that would make it worthwhile. you wouldn't start off with all of your abilities or your full potential until you level your character up and that would take time but I think an addition like that would be fun.[/QUOTE]
I am pretty sure that it was confirmed officially, somewhere. I believe it was one of the developers from Twitter, that comment that it should come summer, however, it might take until the end of the year. Unofficially he confirmed that it might be the Third Quater of the year. July, August or September. But I am quite certain that it was mentioned by an inside person who was allowed to share that information. If I am not mistaken it was on one of the tweets. Even the tweet had it or something.
[QUOTE=jwatson;5481029]Yup. Acknowledgement can be showing a panel it happened it doesn't need to be continuing a legacy set up in another franchise. He could easily have her go back to kenya for instance if he is doing such a story and tie to her own roots and find the real truth of her godhood rather than once again being told what she was. Xavier did that and that is what happened per coates BP as well. Doesn't mean he has any interest in a title that no one has confimed as fact such as hadari yaoi. I just hope people aren't expecting Duggan to complete Coates story.[/QUOTE]
That would be dope to explore, but since they have their eyes set on space, I doubt it she will be coming back to Earth soon, at least not until she completes what she has to do in space. But yeah, I do not expect someone to complete another Author's work. I do hope, however, that they will set her roots deeper in the X-Men comics as a Goddess and even explore it themselves without Coates limitations, maybe?

The art is just... I am speechless, love it! I hope the story is just as good. Someone really pissed off, Ororo. I wonder who.

She is not [B]CUTE[/B]! She is [B][U]FURIOUS[/U][/B]! I wonder who pissed her off that much... perhaps one of the three that are in the previous panel/s. But the art is just... breathtaking, the artist did a pretty good job catching her anger, and the colourist added to that and picked a fine colour, 3D like, yet still animated for her to stand out from the others. I really like the art. Especially the details with Storm's face and colours. This is exactly, how I imagine Storm in the real world!

This may not be new info, but listening to this new podcast with Gerry Duggan and he mentions he just finished writing his last issue of Marauders with Storm in it and that the issue focuses on her. She'll have other plans after that.

Her eyes look like they're about to explode. Maybe this is where they bring up wanting to repeal the no kill law?
Coates work in Captain America has gone straight for the jugular with modern day white supremacy, while Marauders has been a parade of shallow meme moments. Duggan gets no trust from me.
Storm's godhood...........I never really liked that aspect of the character. It felt like it sprang from some old school 'white men writing black people' writing, which plagued a lot of early Marvel. Other writers have done great things with it, but I always found that it put Storm even more on a pedestal than she usually is, and kind of devalued some of her status as an advocate. Like its easy for an actual goddess to talk about having pride with who you are. Its not a problem unique to Storm (given that most of the important characters have mutations that are superpowers while looking like supermodels) but the godhood puts it on an extra level.

Thor didn't have enough pride or self worth to lift his own hammer that anybody can lift now. So being a god is the last thing to make someone unapproachable it's all in the writing.
And now he's the son of phoenix too. So mutant god is ok and far more relatable imo. All species and subsets have some form of gods, why should mutants be different.
-
the aspect of her divinity, as well as her latent mystical abilities, is different from her mutation. just as it is with Morrigan.
also phoenix is a cosmic entity not a god. its is why some of the fans are upset he was born from a human avatar of the Phoenix because that strip away his ties directly to the ekder gods.

Isn't odin still one? Also phoenix is more of an alien now i would think or i could be reading it wrong, it said more like her people believed in a thunderbird. i'd have to look again. I guess im trying to say i don't get what your saying. There is nothing that says they are independent or not tied together if both are gentically who she is they will tie together regardless in my mind. Like if your half kryptonian/half human.
At least for me when i think birthright i think genetics in but it can mean many things.
-
It actually says the blood of the cheyenne so i'm even more confused. Does it mean cheyenne native americans. Which kind of makes no sense because it's the read headed million year old one at that time not Echo. You know what i'm giving myself an actual headache so nevermind.
So after some google i guess Phoenix is a native American spirit of the cheyenne people given enter the phoenix and basically has finally gone home. Apparently there were several caucasian looking cheyenne people in marvel history that had powers.

Aaron explained that the Phoenix is attracted to emotions and not necessarily strength. so the empathy of that deaf character must be out of this world. also it is Cheyenne respective to native Americans.

Dude he got a whole dark twin over in his own comic that his daddy had to come back to beat. Nobody is doing Thor any favors right now.
Granted though he did awaken something called the Thor Force and is in his father armor.... so...

I looked up on the wiki and it says the Blackbird can reach Mach 4.2 at max speed. This would put storm at a 5 on the Power Grid.
(Supersonic: Able to move at a peak velocity between Mach-2 to orbital velocity (approximately 17,000 mph).)
