I find it funny people who have been reading X-Men for a long time tell me Storm can only control Earths atmosphere and nothing else.
I be looking at them like this:

What do Storm fans think of the material in the “Classic X-Men” back up stories?
We are the Dora Milaje. We are the daughters of the 18 tribes of Wakanda. We are the teeth of the Panther God. Out of 10,000 years of sweat and bloodshed and battle are we born. We are the women of this ancient land. Deadliest of the species. And our time has come!
I agree with everything you say...I actually thought the very same thing (bolded) when I read the article. It's comics, it's fantasy...it really does not have to make scientific sense. Which is a major issue I have with certain writers who handicap characters (not just Storm) because THEY, in their limited imaginations, believe that certain power uses can't be plausible because..."science". That's why Claremont will always be the definitive writer...even with his quirks and short comings...because he fully engaged his imagination with these characters.
A lot for me to read & get caught up on !
For Storm fans who have not yet checked out the Stormitorium you should. Its a really good webisode series, and 2 new episodes are up (17 & 18 where Storm encounters Deluge):

I am going to set aside the racial reasons of why I think Fox diminished Storm and the X-Men and focus only on why I think Disney will do better. Our faith in the MCU will prove out due to the fact that Disney is more of a long-term, systems thinker than Fox.
Fox centered their X-Men movies on ONE popular character, (first Wolverine and then Mystique). The limited scope of their vision only allowed them to really push one character. And not just push, they had to shoehorn their "star" into everything and diminish other characters so their anointed one would shine brighter.
Conversely, Disney built a cinematic universe in which multiple characters have a chance to shine. They've taken lesser characters and made them made the stars. They don't look to diminish, they look to make as many stars as possible so they can keep raking on that cash hand over fist.
Given the smashing commercial and financial success of the Black Panther, Storm represents a revenue stream they'd be foolish to pass up. And Disney ain't no fool.
I hope so too ya'll... I just want to see a scene where a village dances and celebrates as it starts to rain... and the camera pans up and zooms in on Storm in the sky, in all her glory bringing the elements to her people...
