Ororo Munroe: Storm/Hadari Yao Appreciation 2021

[butterflykyss]

I didn't say that she wasn't lacking, quite the opposite she could have have done more feats, but the tsunami one was good. But yeah when I read X-men Red and read how Storm is planning to take her own life with lightning, I laughed hard. I mean, the first thing that came to me was that she actually is immune to lightning. So, from that moment onwards I didn't expect much of the series.

yea I think that is when I checked out the series too. I vaguely recall tim Taylor saying they figured if she could make herself immune to lightning then she should be able to essentially know how to kill herself with it. made zero sense to me but that was the rationale he made on twitter.

she can be both. her mutation and gift of godhead though both a part of her are two separate things where the latter being something that goes much deeper:

I like seeing Storm ascending to Hadari Yao. While I think Nnedi Okorafor's comic-writing is just ok, I do like the way she has portrayed Storm. In both the Shuri series and in World of Wakanda: X-men, her Storm is has been well written overall.

yea I thought her writing was just ok too. I also didn't quite understand her depiction of the hadari yao versus coates'. her version almost appeared like she was possessed or something which wasn't how Coates depicted her hsdari yao form. now I would agree watching storm move super fast to block massive lightning blasts was delicious to see!!!

I decided to go and make a Battle between Storm and Weather Wizard in Comicvine just for the fun of it:

Ororo "Storm" Munroe vs Mark "Weather Wizard" Mardon.

Comic Vine is one of worst comic sites to Storm and her fans.

Comic Vine is one of worst comic sites to Storm and her fans.

That is why, I've put a few rules. We can do battles only with Printed Comics, without the "she should be able to do that as per her powerset, but she hasn't done it in comics yet".

Plus, we have to admit that sometimes Storm fans are ridiculous on the comic vine, putting feats and accomplishments to Storm which she didn't reach and think that she can take on everyone and everything, without the actual proof. I've seen quite the ridiculous claims in the battle threads about her, and even as her fan, I am displeased by some Storm fans who think that Storm can do everything, when she clearly has some kind of limitations or hasn't achieved that power level, yet.

So Vita confirmed in today's xmen Monday storm role in the CotA book will be that of a mentor. Definitely will not be checking that book out.

I mean that seemed obvious. This is a book about the kids. I know some speculated but this was never gonna be a Storm led book

I didn't want it to be a storm led book either as the entire premise seemed very weak imo. I most certainly hope these are not the big plans they were talking about for storm.

I agree 1000% with this statement. I went by her forum the other day and its like a ghost town. quite a shame. the storm forum here used to be a lot more popping than it is now as well but at least there is some traffic.

So again always thinking about MCU Storm.
What do you guys think about after the first three x-men movies Storm gets depowered onscreen for a movie or two, until obviously regained her abilities?

I doubt it otherwise they would have advertised Storm's presence more. I feel like we won't get confirmation of Storm's big plans until after the Hellfire Gala/ when she officially Marauders.

If Claremont tried to depower Storm for as long as he ended up doing in the 80s he’d have been called every kind of -ist and -phobe on social media and forced to rectify it by editorial. I highly doubt the MCU is gonna try to recreate that phase of Storm’s character as the optics of having a black X-woman (likely the only prominent one at that) lose her omega-level mutant powers for even a brief period of time probably won’t go over well among casuals.

They don’t read comics or understand context. I’d personally love to see it and maybe we will get a few scenes with a depowered Storm but I don’t see Marvel stripping her of her powers for an entire movie, let alone two. I actually think they’re more likely to explore her divinity and mystic affinity than take her powers away.

Ooh, I hope not. I hated when it happened in the comics and really do not want to see that on-screen!

Some people even say her minimal use in previous films was Storm's depowering. No more of that, please.

I hope this is indeed not the big plans for Storm. I hope she appears in only one or two books and then moves on and concentrate on those big plans for her. I would really like to see what they will do with Storm.
