Just caught up on SWORD #7. Storm was playing no games at the dinner with Doom. She was like, "Bish, who is you talking to?" I loved how Al Ewing wrote that scene.
Mutant and Proud!
I honestly don't see the point in Ororo being omega in weather manipulation where one of the elements of this skill is temperature and not being able to achieve unimaginable feats with this skill. The Storm's mutation is only one (manipulation of nature), but its mutation has ramifications that allow it to manipulate from energy (be it thermal, kinetic, static, electromagnetic, etc.) to matter, even if within a more elemental spectrum ( such as hydrogen, oxygen, among others). Technically Ororo manipulates the primitive elements of nature, it's like a cake recipe, before the cake is a cake, it's the ingredients like eggs, milk, flour, sugar, etc... That's what Ororo does, she takes the ingredients and... catapluff, the magic happens.
So, but writers might decide not to focus on that side of the Storm's powers because there's already an omega to that power aspect, you know? Also, Ororo doesn't have feats that explicitly prove she hits Absolute Zero, like Iceman does, however, I think she can.
Is this comic of the avengers canonical? (This loss of power can cause confusion in Krakoa)
I like that
Yes! You're right, in my opinion it was a nerf in her real ability to put her as an omega just in Weather Manipulation. It was like a bucket of cold water, although now she is officially an omega. Lol
I don't even care that much about seeing Storm use her powers on a multiversal level or things like that, I just wish the writers would be smarter and explore her abilities better. We have a character with a wide range of abilities, and reading from the writers things like "we don't know how to exploit Ororo abilities" kind of doesn't stick, they know how to exploit Jean telepathy, Magneto magnetism and the manifestation of powers of the Legion. Why the hell wouldn't they know how to exploit Ororo elemental meteorological manipulation? We have atmospheric pressure, humidity, temperature and solar radiation as the main elements of weather.
It would be possible for Ororo to show more hydrokinesis feats besides the rain effect, it would be possible for Ororo to show more atmospheric pressure feats besides the ear effect, it would be possible for Ororo to show more temperatur feats beyond
the blizzards. The xoffice team could very well exploit Storm using powerful high and low temperatures, from heat blast (such as fire, etc) to energy neutralization with negative temperature.
We could see more Ororo feats with solar radiation without just being solar winds in space. Other users extract their powers from the sun, Shiro and Roberto are one of those. Why the hell Storm has to be limited to space to use solar radiation?
Storm is so versatile that it can simply on any given day use an atmospheric pressure field as a shield and defense, as well as an electromagnetic force field.
I agree, however, it was the Writers who gave this titles, status, they have to develop, which is good to have these things, but it does not cause any impact, noise in your history and in your powers. Storm is a literal goddess, so why can't she have moments, goddess powers? Remembering that some Marvel Gods receive better treatment than the Storm (giving moments, feats worthy of being called Gods)
I love your posts very insightful... I always say that we storm fans are geniuses and you are a potent example of that.
Yes she doesn't have feats in that regard but it is logically within her power to perform such feats. As I stated temperature manipulation is a part of weather manipulation and since storm has immeasurable controls over weather this means she has immeasurable control over temperature as well.
You know, we in this thread often speculate that most of Storm's limits are .. self imposed. I personally don't think she HAS to be in space to use solar radiation, she simply chooses to limit herself out of respect for the natural order due to her bond with the earth. I don't think she HAS to be in space to manipulate cosmic radiation, she just doesn't want to. Like, imagine her pulling energy from Neptune to bump up her wind basted attacks while simultaneously trying to not let it get out of control and damage the earth's delicate ecosystem? She is the goddess that preserves the balance after all . Funny enough, this reminds me of a time on another board where a user tried to say Storm recklessly exposed civilians to radiation after parting the ozone and magnetic field in her solo LOL.

ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
I wish it were even so that they saw storm and the thought that she could control all storms but nope they just see it as lightning, wind and rain. Like heat and cold be damned in the past storm has manipulated radiation sooo precisely to extract specific wavelengths to hurt gladiator used gamma particles to create enough elemental turbulence as to protect the entire planet from solar flares. . It's phenomenal how little she thinks outside the box especially these days, it is outside the charachter of storm who is probably one of the most resourceful of all xmen perhaps even the entire marvel universe. But she can't even think to use more than lightning and wind in battle.
Like I saw a clip from a show and there a charachter used droplets of water to create scythes of ice to attack her enemies. When I saw it I jumped up and shouted because I have imagined storm doing something like that. Or even manipulate rain to the extent that you create a protective dome. Like if they are going to stick her to lightning wind and rain at least let her be creative with them aside throw them around and fly.
