What's the main consensus these days..considering the company pushes for Ms. Marvel and Black Widow?

I think if her film rights belonged to Marvel Studios and she could be part of the Avengers or Guardians of the Galaxy or whatever, she'd be both. They can't play up her importance as much as they could, seeing as how I think she has everything to be the A-list female character that Marvel seems to be lacking. Yes, Black Widow is hugely popular, but Storm would be on another level if MS had the rights.

I like Storm and she's iconic. I prefer Rachel but there's no denying that Storm has earned her place among the Greats and is one of the most recognizable X-Characters for a reason.
Storm and Black Widow may be playing a tough competition on film exposure but Storm still has more appearances in comics, cartoon series, video games, etc than Black Widow. I could say that as well to Jean Grey and Rogue compared to Black Widow.
Storm is one free bish, baby, but even she doesn't compare to Lady Moondragon.
Even with the film rights she wouldn't be as popular in the movie world. Halle Berry just can't do that.
Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow is outstanding on the other hand.
"This is me being reasonable"
And how does quality relate to widow in terms of the question posed by the op? Storm has been prominent seen not only in three x films soon to be four, but has been featured on multiple games as well in many video games. Black widow is just starting to get her shine whereas storm has been getting hers since the 80s. So u right it isn't a competition and bw loses badly.
And best believe if marvel owned the rights to the xmen she be even more so in the forefront. The xmen unfortunately got the short hand of the stick when the properties were sold to Fox

CANON: "Cyclops, the most important mutant in 616" - The scientific community of the 616
The title says "in Marvel history". Even dead, Jean is still one of the most popular character.
(And she isn't dead in games or movies...)
Why dismiss Jeen ? Storm was reverted to a child during a whole story arc (right after the X-Men "died". That's when she meet Gambit). Should that be dismissed from the character history too ?
