Too much attitude, not enough grandeur. This is a pic feels like she has a chip on her shoulder. I think your description of "Try me Bitch!" is very accurate. My favorite pics of Storm show her majesty. I love her dichotomy of be a weather goddess and scrappy street fighter that will cut a bitch. This pic has the street-fighter, but not the goddess.
Yes, Ororo was about 25 and Jean was about 24. I kinda think you have to make them younger, though, retroactively, because of the sliding timeline. If it's been about 10 years in total for their whole history[as determined by the most recent House of X era], it's been about 8 years since Giant Size, but they are still under 30, so in my mind, you have to reconfigure them to be younger then(so like, 20, 21, instead). They were moving in almost real time back then(the comics). Scott was still 25 back in the mid 90's era, so unless the entire Claremont run is less than a year, they have to be younger back then at the start.
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
Regardless of the sliding timeline...I've always thought of the O5 and ANAD X-Men (As written by Claremont) to be young adults...18, 19, 20, 21, 22...where I would put Storm at 20/21 (but her life experiences and powers gives her an older, more mature outlook and sensibility and demeanor.)

There's an interesting Storm-related tidbit in the AiPT FCBD XoS article.

It gets real weird because Beast was celebrating his 30th birthday back in 1993. (Ironically the same time X-men turned “30”)
so I'm not sure what to think about storm being one the 10 with a sword. I honestly dont even like the premise but if we get some good character development, feats and some xena like hand to hand I will be here for it:

yes it surely would. I'm not sure what coates would do if allowed to write her solo but your idea would be one fabulous way to do it.
storm was shown to be one of the wielders of a sword in sword of x
I'm with so. I dont think she has a need for that.
your sentiment is understandable. I hope whoever gets the role really embody her in look and in her personality.
