Agreed. I think it would be an EPIC mistake to have Storm's relationship with T'Challa's + his family, reconnection with the people (channeling their faith into her to help protect/save the people), and recognizing her loyalty and commitment to both nations. If anything this could be a unique and critical/role where Storm can navigate the political water with the nations who are not looking for the same relationship the majority of the world had with Krakoa,, and having Wakanda's supporting that effort could make for some new story ground for both her and T'Challa.
Agreed. I feel like (outide of a few exceptions)when it comes to the previous x-writer's exploration of Storm's inner struggles it was so 1-note, didn't feel inspired, and was more like a rinse/repeat. CC I felt really pushed Storm to prove her worth/value to herself in his stories so that at the end of the triumphs and failures she emerged stronger, reassured and knew what she wanted to do, but was still humanly flawed, relatable and showed more room for growth.

ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
Yes. And if they did make it intriguing. I love that line where Storm said, "I may treasure peace but I'm very good at making war", and that should be at the core the stories. Some negotiations will go well, some could be directed from her to the "black market route", some will be some contentious posturing that will lead to something, and some will actually lead to major conflict where she has to navigate the ramifications of conflicts that need to happen to protect Krakoa's interest. All should have different reactions from the X-Men, the Quiet council, her family and her non-mutant associations/connections.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
I agree with your point on how powerful Storm should be Shown in the MCU X Men movies .
Not just Thor or SW level . But really make the audience in the movie theater experience feel the dread of her ablities. So that when she is strip of abilities, its far more impactful.
I would love this too. The only reason they were separated in AvX is then Disney wanted to diminish the X-Men because Fox had the movie rights. Well, Disney owns Fox now, so the rights are no longer a problem. So no need for Storm and the BP to allow the world to dictate their relationship or future.
Not just powerful. We've already seen mysticism in the first Black Panther. I'd like to her see role as the high priestess/goddess of Wakanda. Of course she's a mutant and member of the X-men, but more. I like how Coates built up on what Claremont started and how he tied her to Wakanda. Though this also builds up on the Storm series where she had Bast eat the Shadow King.
Yupp. Very false. This sounds like so much gossip-mongering clickbate.
Yes, supplying unwanted drugs via the Black Market is problematic and where Wakanda is concerned, completely unnecessary and
hyperbole aside, they just fought to build and protect their own sovereign state and society...I don't see the X-Men trying to tear down Wakanda's centuries long-established nation state. Because...
1: Regardless of how she feels about T'Challa and whether or not they're in relationship...Storm would not allow it.
2: Thematically, Krakoa and Wakanda are very similar in how the world views thier isolationist and yet very powerful nations as threats...even without the Storm/T'Challa connection, they should be allies, not enemies.
3: Even with all the powerful mutants protecting Krakoa, Wakanda, written true to form is powerful enough to go head to head with Krakoa and the devastation on both sides would be great. For all his talk about "building up" Mutants, I can't see HiX-Man going this route if it means tearing down another soveriegn country (yet again).

This is certainly more interesting than all-out concflict.
I can see HiX-Man going this route based on how he's written T'Challa and Wakanda's Global influence and Political stance in his New Avengers. A lot of battles are fought and won or lost behind closed doors sitting around a conference table...without a single drop of blood being shed.

Question: Which of the X-men films showcased/displayed Storm's powers the best to you?
We are the Dora Milaje. We are the daughters of the 18 tribes of Wakanda. We are the teeth of the Panther God. Out of 10,000 years of sweat and bloodshed and battle are we born. We are the women of this ancient land. Deadliest of the species. And our time has come!
She is PROPERTY of the X-Men.
If the story is being written by the X-Office-Black Panther & Wakanda will be as always trashed by the X-Office. And pandering to the group who wants Wakanda FLOODED.
If it's written by Coates-Panther gets trashed even more.
If it's written by someone IMPARTIAL. There will be no war. She will SQUASH it herself. Because LOGIC more than EMOTION will be running through her head.
Wakanda versus X-Men.
X-Men win-how much does that FUEL the anti mutant march? You get USA, Russia, Lavaria, Atlantis, Inhumans, Asian, Skrulls and whoever else team up to wipe out mutants?
Wakanda wins- Here comes everyone else to pick the scraps to get X-Men and a new fear of Wakanda.
What does OTHERS think? Especially BLACK heroes? Luke Cage is not going to hear excuses. Who wants to find out how deadly Thunderball is-folks forget he helped make the Hulk.
