Ororo Munroe: Storm Appreciation 2020

[chief12d]

Advocating for the Devil here....

Was she doing anything proactive for Africa/the Continent? Or...just being the local Weather Girl for any village who needed it?
And as per Xavier's pitch...she did find and embraced her role and place in the world (and Universe) at large...a question she herself wrestled with but ultimately came to terms with.

She wasn't doing anything comprehensive but was helping out where possible, which means she was doing her part. It's clear many found her efforts worthwhile so while she was indulging in her Weather Girl reputation, Storm did improve the lives of thousands of Kenyans. But I agree, she found a calling more impactful than just being a local deity. If she didn't become the woman that she did, how many times would the Earth (including her worshippers) been destroyed? Still though, there's room for a bit more balance in her obligations to the mutant cause and the people she left behind. How writers should approach that (if they even wanted to go that route) is up to debate.

now I want to see Storm telling Xavier to shove this "you'r living a fantasy....." mumbo jumbo where the sun doesn't shine, I'm aware of the wakanda's feats but It feels like the x-books don't really take the her claim of godhood seriously

Nope, she was more than the common Weather Witch that walked Africa bringing rain. She was worshipped as a Goddess since Xavier says to her that she is not one. I've always wondered what would have happened with Storm if she stayed in Africa and they kept worshipping her? Would she ascend beyond mortal life and reshape herself into a full-bodied Goddess, or would something else happen?

YIKES! Can Land pleased be banned from drawing Storm again?

Good point. If she had stayed and word spread to other regions about the benevolent goddess who helps the crops that feed the people and protect them from other threats, that could have resulted in more people believing in her and worshipping her. Who knows where it could have gone from there.

I'm pretty sure that the villagers left behind were like, "What the frak happened? Some bald white dude in a wheelchair shows up, says something to our goddess and she leaves us forever! Now our crops are dead, we cannot feed our people and we are being attacked by marauders(no pun intended) Why has our goddess forsaken us for the bald white man?"




Man, I pity the next white dude that shows up to that village.



But I'm sure they understood that Storm was needed elsewhere. And no, I'm not being sarcastic

Storm should have snatched Xavier's wheelchair after he told her point blank she wasn't a goddess. Oh word, Charles Xavier? Ok, just for that, you can crawl back to America. Can he even crawl? Maybe he'd have to slide all the way back to America on his stomach. It would be funny if in addition to her greenhouse, Storm also had another room where she kept all of the items she's stolen from people over the years: wigs, wheelchairs, hearts...(ok, that last one was corny).

Charles: My name is Charles Xavier and I am the most powerful telepath on the planet. I need you to join with others like yourself and help to save my students who have powers of their own from a monstrous island that will kill them! And by the way, you're not a goddess.

Storm: So Charles Xavier, you say you are the most powerful telepath on the planet, you have recruited others with powers like myself and you want us to go save your students that you trained from a monster island? And you also say that I'm not a goddess?

Charles: Yes.

Storm: .......you do it.

Charles: What?

Storm: I guess you can't read minds after all.

[Devaishwarya]

Thank the Goddess he recruited her...else we would not have X-Man Storm from inception.
