Storm's worthy foes

Okay, so Storm doesn't get along with Callisto or Mystique, (Last time I checked) and she certainly doesn't get along with the Shadow King! But I think she needs a true nemesis! Someone who can either ward off her powers or outmatch them in some way. Yes I know it's been done to death for many other characters but it might give her some much needed character development and mke her a much more sympathetic character!

She needs someone who can match her in physical power. Really another female. I swear she wouldn't have any shortage of villains in DC. I think they would have really showed up "the house of ideas" when it comes to building this character. @Slight has some great ideas in Storm's fan page here on Comicvine.

They (DC) have just as hard a time finding worthy/decent foes for their female leads as well, it's one of the reasons Wonder Woman has a hard time keeping a title :( 
Being on a team doesn't give the creative team much room to make her a personalized opponent.  I think she needs somebody more her equal, Callisto could have been good if she had more going for her........Moonstone could be a good opponent for her.

I'd say she shares Shadow King with Prof. X to a certain extent but I don't think a character should just be created to be her arch nemesis. 
 
Maybe I'd list Emma Frost as the White Queen.  
 
I thought Candra sucked, though.

I'm not really clear on why the Shadow King specifically targets her, though. For all intents and purposes, she's a normal person with superhuman powers - not really like Charles whose ideology clashed with what Shadow King believed.

He wants her powers over the the elements to take over Africa and rule it with a iron fist.....then the world!  
Farouk claims that Ororo " was promised to him" 
 
Storm isn't just your average "superhuman",shes a vastly powerful mutant with the powers of a  true goddess. weather manipulation =epic win,massive chaos and destruction 
 for him.Besides he still spites Storm for turning against him as a young girl supposedly running off during his fight with Xavier   >_>

@Roddy010: Hmmm, that could work! Candra is powerful, long-lived, persistant, and WAY too proud to EVER admit Storm could equal her in any way!

This is a good point and a much needed addition to Ororo's development as a character. Shadow King is a good choice (loved him in WAP) and has a history with Storm since she was a child but is too predictable of a choice, Candra was powerful and could have been an option if she were alive, and Callisto was cool  but they are friends (at least from their last interaction), and I really liked Khan and I hope they bring him back ( I doubt he is dead). He was stated to be Storm's equal, at least physically and mentally, and there is some potential for good stories if he returns for revenge on Ororo.  
 
I'd like to see a nemesis with powers who is as powerful or slightly more powerful than Storm, and someone she could fight in h2h.....kind of like how Sabretooth was to Wolverine and Shadow King is to Xavier, but it's hard to think of an existing villain that is more equal to her....either they would annihilate her or Storm would utterly annihilate them. I'd like an opponent for her that has either an elemental power or has powerful magic (so she has to explore that part of her heritage :-) ) so they would be a match for her with power, has formidable h2h skills to be a challenge for her (i.e. - Khan and Callisto), and is a cunning opponent who is intelligent to match how she thinks (i.e. - Khan).

Well, in the long run, there are many more powerful superhumans in the Marvel universe, so I don't really put her in Goddess category. Especially since she isn't one and in the marvel Universe, there are real goddesses :P. She's powerful for a mutant, though, considering the majority of mutants in their reality are not that powerful. That's probably why Shadow King never got farther - concentrating on personal grudges doesn't seem that productive lol. 
 
I don't think she attracts that many archenemies. She's pretty self-contained for the most part, and doesn't really get involved in adventures outside of the X-Men.

@PhoenixoftheTides:  How dare you insult The All Goddess! 
 
Ororo is our tribal savior and Goddess of the Winds and living Lightning!!!!!!!! 
 
lol j/k 
 
but yeah thats his problem 
 
Amahl Farouk=Grudges 
 
and in particular he has heavy grudges against Charles and Ororo specifically.BTW we cant say Storm wouldn't attact many arch-enemies,we've never given her a chance at a solo series,or should i say Marvel hasn't. -_-

That DC reboot is looking more and more attractive. To me at least, and I usually stay the hell away from DC. They aren't very colorful so to speak. But this reboot seems to change that. 
 
 
Away, what about Dracula? Storm was bite once and there is still somewhat of a connection. I really see her having to move toward learning magic, because that takes her into another realm and to me closes a gaping plot thread.

Yes, Kind of. Selene is a good example for Storm if she could explore her magical heritage and see how that would stack up against a sorcerous as powerful as Selene. If it's with her elemental powers only then I'd like a nemesis character for Storm similar to powers like Crystal or Polaris but can fight like Callisto or Mystique and with a cunning mind like Mystique or Viper. Some happy medium along those lines.

i chose Selene.. she is similar yet very much different from Ororo.. both were worshiped as Goddesses before, but Ororo got over it and swore to protect life claimed that no living being has the right to enslave another.. Selene on the other hand sought power and played with mortal lives for thousands of years.. Selene being immortal and a powerful sorceress would be nice plot for Ororo to venture on her mystical heritage..

I think Exodus and Haven are worthy foes of Storm.

I still feel that the most exciting battle if a battle between Storm and Magneto

I don't much about Exodus and Haven, but I would think Storm and Mags would be good; however, Storm has never been shown to really be able to take him in a group, so I doubt one on one would work in her favor. Also Apocalypse at her current power set would be too much for Ororo.

@jhazzroucher: I don't really care that she explored her magic per say because I think she has so much power in regards to her primary one that she hasn't tapped into. However, if Marvel were to go in the route of exploring her magic potential, this would seem like a good place to start.
