Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”

He is a glass canon as well, it's just that he uses EM forcefields much more consistently which makes it an in character trait in comparison to Storm who does so much less.
I agree, w/ her powers Batroc is fodder to her but she isn't using them in the right way here, which is bad writing.
Jean's TK molecular reassembly stuff and psionic form is why I think a bullet would not do her in.Mercury can provide details much better on Jean's TK.Otherwise she is a glass canon.
Both Erik and Storm are glass canon's, and I'm sure there shields are on par w/ one another.The diff. as explained above is not their strength or reaction time(which I'm sure is on par), it's consistency in use of said Shields.
I see what you’re saying in regards to Jean, especially if she is using her psionic form. I would think though that I depends on if the bullet puts her down before she can telekinetically atomize it/repair herself. Which, knowing how integral concentration is for psi powers, might be difficult with a hemorr*****g temple wound. Realistically as I believe you’re implying, neither of those 3 characters should have any concern over bullets/most projectiles in the first place.

Considering she's going to be fighting a lot I hope Ewing dives into more of these type of defensives feats.
Let it become a character trait for Storm to actually use her brain in combat.
This is not our house. Know that and know peace!

She is one in the sense that if she recieves a strong physical hit to her body, which is still on par with normal humans in terms of durability, she will be in trouble. Like a Dark Souls boss where the trick is not to deal a lot of damage, but to get them on the ground, reach them and get their barrier down ... and avoid the counters and parries.
Actualy she could make a pretty great bonus boss in a Sekiro style video game.

Oh good point. Nevermind then. Personaly i see the likes of Magneto, Jean Grey and Storm as "barriered glass cannons", but if the "shield" (magnetic sphere, TK barrier, wind/air/electirc barriers) ability disqualifies them from the glass cannon status i fail to see why Storm should be thrown in there.
