On positive note, I hope the artist stays on the book.

Good to see Rachel and Storm interacting but I'm already tired of hearing about how Rachel's powers are growing and getting stronger when she lost to Mesmero again and has not even shown any of this yet. It seems that upgrade powers are only valid when they turn against their friends.
On Storm's hammer this may not be the original but rather that copy of SW that somehow came to this universe.
That’s exactly it. That Hammer isn’t cursed like it was when it was initially made. So I’m confused as Storm why it keeps coming back. You’d think she’d be possessed and doing all manner of EVIL if the Hammer was cursed, but doesn’t look like that to be the case. I REALLY want her to keep it and use it when the time is befitting.
Use it more before Thor comes and takes it!!!
Listen let's just enjoy the hammer while it lasts because otherwise we're just gonna be right back to Storm naps.

I can already think of a couple team busters I wanna see her fight against with Stormcaster.
Right. I can already see it. Storm gets into the major fight, throws Stormcaster and it boomerangs and knocks her out for the rest of the story.

Same here. I think her having the hammer kinda makes her one. We just need to SEE what she can do with that Hammer instead of Lightning.
Yes I agree. I’m enjoying the ride. Before Marvel or X-Office comes and snatches it away from her.
I'd also like to just say that I'm enjoying this new "era" for Gold. It feels like Guggenheim is actually telling the stories that he wants to tell as opposed to coasting along for a while, much like Bunn in Blue does. Guggenheim isn't my favorite person in general but this feels like the stuff that the guy who wrote the X-Tinction Agenda mini in 2015 during Secret Wars would be writing.

Storm needs to use that hammer to break through the 4th wall and tell Guggs to stop writing this crap.
Fundamentally I think Guggenheim has some decent ideas which could turn into decent X-books. I just wish there was a real editor involved or Guggenheim was working with another writer.
Gwuggenhweim writes one issue with Storm doing something besides sleeping + some good art and everyone on these boards go crazy. It's still the same pile of worthless drivel. Marquez and the other artists could be doing so much for other books right now.
A panel of Gambit speaking nonsensical "Cajunspeak", one panel of Rogue saying "yeehaw, ah'm nothing but a southern belle with the strength of twenty bullfrogs on a horse ranch, sugah", Rachel not going into a coma, and Magik going the bare minimum on the job doesn't make Gold automatically deserve the hype y'all are giving it. Also, Storm fans, he isn't acknowledging her godhood. He's just weighing her down with some previous plot point because he honest-to-God doesnt know what to do with her. Same with Rachel, who he's kept nerfing and un-nerfing so he can keep her busy and I doubt the "Dark Rachel Saga" (god, he wants to be Claremont so bad) will finish whatever craptastic character arc she's trudging through. And this forced marriage thing?
So he not only understands how problematic and pedophilic this is, but continues to put it through the lenses of "but age is just a number, love is love~!!!" I wonder where all the "Kitty is the sexual aggressor, so it's her fault" crowd is?
