How is placing her above Sue and Strange silly and irrelevant when it was practically stated in the comics and by the writer of the story himself.
We been knew Storm could fight Current Strange. Remember when she broke his bands?
[QUOTE=Devaishwarya;5564055]I completely understand wanting her powers explored...but...as I've stated many times in this thread...it's not a competition especially among heroes. It should never be that. So placing her above Sue Storm and Dr. Strange is silly and irrelevant. Comparing her to Electro is equally pointless because they're two distinctly separate characters with vastly different in-story motivations and written by different people.
Genuine question: So, why? What purpose does it serve?[/QUOTE]
Your perspective is very interesting. It's almost like you simultaneously said opposite things with that statement. I simply brought an electro feat stating how diverse and versatile electricity as an ability is and storm having access to more energies should be able to take this a step further and you see that as silly? Like TF! Why is it silly that storm is stronger than Sue or strange, why does it not sit right with you? I have been noticing you say wired things like low-key trying to low-ball storm in her own thread. Who said it's a competition over here! please point me to the person who said it's a competition. If they are different charachters we shouldn't compare because? Don't you understand that it's a normal part of comic book discourse to compare charachters?there is a whole comic universe because of this? Or that whole aspect is lost on you. 🙄🙄🙄 Chile let me stop before I say something I regret.
I dont think it's a competition for posters but I do think it is about respect for the character. Many fans of hers know of her potential and history but outside the fandom she is always it seems lowballed. So for writers to finally write her as she was originally intended is gratifying as a fan to see.
Let's talk about how Storm is more powerful than Galactus, the Beyonder, and Molecule Man as well.

Like make it make sense. This isn't the first time, I always notice that anytime we speak about storms powers this user tries to interject I first thought they were trying to be a voice of reason keep us on the boundary of her ability but this last statement makes me realize it may be something else. Like why is it silly?

You are more than welcome to create a thread to troll storm fans but not in this house honey. Not in here.

just ignore it and maybe it will go away lol
I didn't know trolls were still a thing like who goes to a thread to purposeful do that? so sad lol
She's stronger than Sue and Strange and the other Omegas...and? So what?
Sue Storm has been "possesed" by Psycho-Man/Hate Monger.
Dormmamu has managed to defeat Dr. Strange on numerous occasions.
All the Omegas have been bested often during various X-Men runs and stories.
My point...Storm being more powerful than these characters is not really a great testament of any kind.
It's not that her being stronger than other characters doesn't "sit right" with me...it's more, why is that so important to some fans and more importantly, to her? Sure, she's stronger than some but she's also "weaker" than others.

That is a big part of why it important. Also great point about the writers themselves saying this. If it wasn't important why would they then need to make note of it? And why is it a big deal? Do people question Franklin Richards in the regard or Scarlet Witch? I never understood this why it seems to be an issue whenever this is exported with storm.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Preach! Everyone gets to explore their power but when it gets to storm it's silly to consider what she should be able to do. In her own respect appreciation thread.

Don't worry, this user has absolutely no ulterior motive or agenda other than to give a thoughtful objective different perspective but...seeing as how it's a delicate subject and as no one has managed to actually explain the pre-occupation to me...I'm quite done with this topic.

thank you.
thor gets to be all cosmic and do all sorts of things and no problems.
carol gets to do whatever the hell she does and then is exploring magic.
Hulk gets to go all immortal and busts worlds and blah blah blah
Wanda gets to change all reality.
Nate creates universes
But the character who was literally created to be the most powerful woman can't even get this explored or there is reservation by some to see it? Let's see her be what she was created to be. plain and simple
My take - irrespective of Storm being more powerful than Thor, IW or Strange I think the common thread in these posts is we’re ready for Storm to be regularly battle tested like them on panel. All of these characters had chances to take on some of the MU’s most well known/high profile powerful beings solo (respectfully winning or losing), but it is very rare for Storm to be tested in the same way, & we’re ready to see what omega level weather manipulation looks like. Nothing wrong with that.
Sticking in the vein of combat profiency and power I think we’ve been ready for Storm to get her turn at bat in the big leagues with some of the well known names and to get a definitive result on her omega level power. We’ve seen it with Magneto, Jean & Iceman but not quite yet with Storm. IW is also a good example. Even though IW lost she got show how much ass she could kick when pressed to fight the Avengers, which was one of my favorite demonstrations of how amazing she is. I don’t think she is more powerful than Thor, but seeing her grab his hammer with her power and remove him while fighting off so many capable opponents was completely badass, creative and expected of seasoned hero like her. Love reading action scenes like that where it justs a well thought out battle. If Storm gets some good lengthy focus in this regard I think it would make these conversations about her powers more productive (and friendlier for all).
