It's been so long but I remember lurking and reading your posts on Superhero-hype forums years ago, loved your posts.
Hey sis! and yeah, the hammer for me represents the past...a past from a storyline decades ago. It's really time to move on and it also just proves that writers
have been going around in circles with her for the last two decades.
The Hadari Yao title and her goddesshood is what most excites me and I have sooo many questions because it seems that not only in Wakanda was Storm
always seen as a Goddess but also in her own village. I'm also guessing she does not fit into any Pantheon, at least not any one on Earth.
This reminds me on in our world where tribes know of things that have been passed down for centuries of ancient stories, myths (The Dogon tribe is one of the most interesting to me) and how they seem to know things others don't. So maybe we'll see her return to her village and travel to others at times to learn more about herself.
It's going to be like discovering Ororo all over again.
