Trust me, I relate to your cynicism in regards to the X-office after the mountains of trash that we’ve had to deal with over the years. “Prominent” depends on your interpretation. A character can be prominent in a book and still not have a good showing or characterization. I can’t and won’t speak anything to the quality of Ororo’s appearance in the new Vita book but I’m obviously going to hope it’s decent since we have nothing else to go on, positively or negatively, at this point. We’ll have to disagree however on your confidence that nothing can or will happen with Ororo going forward in the Dawn of X books. There actually are pretty established and factual reasons to think she’ll appear in Vita’s new CotA book, as I’ve mentioned before. Whether it’s good or “prominent” enough however? Remains to be seen.
Yes! Honestly there’s been far less evidence that Vita likes, appreciates, or understands Ororo as much as much as Coates has shown to do. Not to say they don’t, but I like to deal in hard facts and the fact is Coates has shown his adoration for Ororo multiple times and in many different ways. Even much to the chagrin of some lol. So if I had to pick, I’d want him on her potential solo book over Vita anyway.
I love Storm, Claremont's Goddess of thunder, one of my favorite superheroes of all time. I love her in the comics, the 90's cartoon, X-Men: Evolution, Marvel Vs. Capcom, X-Men: legends, Ultimate Alliance, you name it, she's compassionate yet brutal when she needs to be. I can't wait until the MCU does the X-Men, keen to see Fiege's Storm. She has been presented so terribly in cinema thus far.

i think a coates storm solo would be quite perfect since he has great ability to create new concepts and since storm's tenure as a solo is so small, he would have a pratically empty page to fill with his concepts witout much pushback, not only that he would obviously have something to say about mutants in general, especially with hickman's current concept (wich to me seems like up his ally of high conceptual super heroes)
I truly belive storm by coates would be an important read for more than storm fans and would be a wonderfull addition to the line.
I agree. I think Coates would write an amazing Storm mini or ongoing solo. Although, I think, based on how he's written BP, Coates would give Ororo a strong set of supporting characters. I think he would build her world and show the diversity that makes up her multi-faceted existence. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that will happen under his pen. I believe he had some concrete ideas as to how he could tell her story, sharing her long history but also adding to the current character. I think he had similar goals for the heroes in BP and the Crew, which is why I LOVED his nod to his own damn comic when he brought in the Crew, plus Falcon and Rambeau in this week's issue of BP. He did not let that connection he created with the heroes go to waste despite the cancellation.
Sigh, I mourn for what could've been.
Yes I would be curious to see how Coates' would address the idea of Ororo being an actual goddess in the world of the current mutantkind where they are playing as gods. I think there are only technically maybe two mutants, outside of Ororo, who would qualify as an actual god: Siyrn and Selene.
I believe this as well. Coates has written a superb black panther in terms of building the mythos and expanding open the idea of the nation (with regards to their gods and their reach in the galaxy). i'm also curious where coates is looking to take the story after the reboot (if it is rebooted).
