This is, unfortunately, going to make more people on comicvine dislike Storm and those that already dislike her because of comicvine threads and posts will dislike her even more. You have to be very careful with your threads when a black character is concerned. You do more harm than good as there is already a bias in some people concerning ethnic characters and threads like this only exacerbate the situation. Maybe that is what you're trying to do and, if so, shame on you.
Giving one character extra powers rarely makes for a popular battle.
Besides, are there not more interesting battles for Storm to fight?
LOL I think people just don't want to see Storm beat characters like Power Girl.

I've done similar threads before with several different characters, regardless of race and Storm is one of my favourite characters.

Hm, I flagged this thread but nothing happened. It sure works for other people.
LOL It obviously hasn't been locked because it's not spite battle. Storm has Wonder Woman's speed, strength and durability, so how is it a spite battle?

There is only one human race. Remember that.
Regardless of whether Storm is your favorite character, there are a lot of people who are biased towards characters based on their color and threads like these make them dislike them even more. Sucks that it is that way, but it is what it is.

@Nefarious: LOL. Well since Storm has Wonder Woman's strength, speed and durability and her own weather abilities, do you honestly think it is a spite battle, considering Wonder Woman has beaten Power Girl and Storm has her powers?
I would actually have to say storm. On her own Power Girl would beat storm with a finger however if storm has wonder womans abilities then power girl is at a loss. Ww is on a similar level as the super family. While those powers alone won't allow storm to win (it would go either way), the nature abilities that storm brings to the table would tip the scale. Power girl can't speed blitz her, can't one shot her, can't leave her in orbit...yea. Not much pg can do against wonder storm.

I think people don't like Storm because of rbysjti, not because of her skin color.
@WWQ9: Yeah, Storm wouldn't really know how to use those powers to the best of their ability. Thus, she would get owned.
She wouldn't need to know. She could just punch Power Girl and she'd go flying; if she gets hit, her durability will ensure she is ok and Wonder Woman and Power Girl don't always use super speed at the start of a battle.

Hardly. Fanatics have not made people like batman any less because of posts and threads. If one likes a character there isn't anything one poster is going to do to change that.There is simply a different standard depending on a characters skin color. And if you think that there aren't people who dislike storm and/or other black characters simply because of the characters skin color you are completely mistaken or in denial or are not being truthful.
Why would we assume that storm "wouldn't know" how to use wonder woman's powers? She already knows how to fly, shed fly faster. She already knows how to punch things, she'd punch harder, etc. these aren't magical abilities we are talking about like controlling the weather.

Or IRL. It's 2012 and things haven't changed nearly enough.
@TheSwordsman: I've been reading Storm threads on here and all his posts on hundreds of threads about her being able to beat characters who would destroy her and not providing scans or anything actually made me start disliking her LOL If he did the same with Batman, I'd feel the same. (Even though I don't like him anyway) LOL

tell me about it somebody on here really said that if they do a iron fist-powerman movie they should do it where powerman is in the 70s like the old Blaxploitation style movie when are we going to move past the shaft movies please i dont want to hear anymore can you dig it in movies

Exactly! Finally, a member who knows what they are talking about.

There are just as many batman threads vs characters he shouldn't be able to beat but it does not create near as much batman hate as similar threads do storm hate. If a thread or a poster made you dislike a character then perhaps you should exercise some honesty introspection as to why. Anyway, if you think that everyone simply dislikes storm because of one viner or some threads then there is likely no reasoning with you. Good luck. I am finished with this line of dialogue

Yeah. It's disheartening sometimes. I can only hope that the next generations will eventually shrug off the mentality that has thus far been proliferated.
Re-watch Bab's revue of the new total recall movie and note how she pronounces arnold schwarzenegger and watch the thinly veiled disgust whenever tony talks about or answers questions about black characters. Some people are simply evil.
@TheSwordsman: People give Batman prep in most of his battles: he could beat several characters with it and he's basically just a human with no powers, I can't see why people would dislike Storm because she's black; her powers are awesome and she's a very interesting character. You should read through the Storm threads and you'll see what I'm talking about when I said I started disliking her because of rbysjti. I haven't seen many ethnic comic book characters, so maybe that is why you think people who dislike black characters are racist.

@TheSwordsman: I'm not sure you are being entirely fair, and I am sure you are not providing evidence to go with your claims.
As I stated there are some ,not all, who feel this way. There is no unfairness in this nor dishonesty. The evidence is there, whether one chooses to acknowledge it or not.
@TheSwordsman: I'm not sure you are being entirely fair, and I am sure you are not providing evidence to go with your claims.
did she just ask you for evidence lady just go look at some history books or look up a little boy name Treyvon martin http://thedixview.hubpages.com/hub/Sad-Sick-Sadistic
@TheSwordsman: @imbackwimps: The point is its a pretty big thing to accuse someone of. If its not true, you could do a lot of damage to someones reputation and friendships. So when you do imply something that can cause so much harm, its best to always present actual evidence.
