As with Jean in the very same KiB issue...as an OLM she is pretty much God-tier (when she pushes/is pushed beyond her boundaries) just without the pretentious "Goddess" moniker attached to her name.

So we ok with eddie brock, his son, thor, jane, being pretenious

a : making usually unjustified or excessive claims (as of value or standing) the pretentious fraud who assumes a love of culture that is alien to him— Richard Watts
b : expressive of affected, unwarranted, or exaggerated importance, worth, or stature pretentious language pretentious houses
2 : making demands on one's skill, ability, or means : ambitious the pretentious daring of the Green Mountain Boys in crossing the lake — Amer. Guide Series: Vt.
but it's to ambitious for Storm. Well ok.

Even if we throw away all the current history, if Mavel, which it has said many times, god's or powerful people who are worship as gods and transcends. Storm is an omega level mutant as stated and unlike a lot of the supposed actual gods running around the MU was directly worshipped as one by quite a sizeable group of people and remain so to this. So why would her moniker somehow be pretentious but it's not for say a boy like franklin Richards who is also a mutant or Eddie Brock son who simply just being gifted power. Something in the koolaid don't feel right to me and sometimes i feel if we as fans tie her goddess hood too close to wakanda when all her potential was already there, there will be a segement of people who try to strip it away and act like that is the only reason it was there in the first place.
Storm doesn't need to be pretentious, and there is nothing pretentious about a title of a character who has actual receipts.

I 100% agree. I don't know if you recall the history but storm fans were called rabid for referring to her a goddess. well her fans were not call her a goddess out of thin air. there was precedence there which to your point was well defined very early on in her career, i.e., when she stepped onto the scene in giant size xmen.
I think the only thing Coates did was to keep people from saying she was pretentious because now its not up for debate, her godhead is not a "in name only" thing. its actual canon. However, yes I find it odd when the fandom are so accepting of characters being called gods without any history of it but give Ororo a hard time.

Thor, Eddie, Jane don't go about shouting: "I am a God!/Goddess!" People recognise them for what they are...God-like beings, and refer to and may acknowledge them as such but...they usually don't refer to themselves in such lofty terms.
Either way...the point clearly being missed:
Storm and Jean have clearly shown they can up against self-proclaimed (ie pretentious) Gods just by tapping into their Omega-level-ness.
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
I think other people miss the point. You have to keep screaming out you a boss when unfair practices and standards try to keep you from sitting at the table. It's pretentious when Storm calls herself a goddess but the Asgardian Alien can call himself God of Thunder, All father and all these other names all he wants.
