@kasya_carey: @mooty_pass: Indeed! I mean if she is going to summon the lightning then YES to totally decimating Kaiju Tarn. That bold shredded him instantly. The the ability to cause a Dominion to feel pain...has to be one of, if not her strongest opponent that could register feeling her power. Ugh I cannot wait for the next issue. I know it is Magneto focused but hopefully Ewing keeps that same energy as this first issue for them both. If an "avatar of life" is her core form :-D.....??!!

@mooty_pass: Agreed. I think its a fair point that Storm’s combat style is more inclined to go evasive or go hand to hand more so than most high tier energy/matter manipulators, but she’s done enough showings of shields or counter-force with air (like redirecting explosions or Cyclop’s beam), pressure dome to block and contain, ice (like Vulcan’s fire blast), and EM (like blocking Urr’s hammer) to prove she has effective defenses. And there are more examples, but I don’t think it’s a prerequisite to being high tier, which to me is more about power levels.

@mooty_pass: A good final issue. It wasn’t as spectacular as I was hoping for, but its a good durability feat, good feat of combat ingenuity, string tactical leadership throughout the war, and Ewing showing the use of extreme cold and focused pressure with Ororo has been great and consistent from SWORD - RED (and Immortal Thor).

@mooty_pass: well detailed. Such impressive showings. Putting that degree of physical strain on Thor, to the point his ears were bleeding, makes you wonder how much more impactful that tactic would be on other class 100s not on par with Thor or lower classes.

I can see how an argument can be made for the Six to win round 1 (Electro as potential MVP) but we know Famine’s hydrokinesis with morals on is powerful enough to drown a huge area and he took the water from Khora’s mother’s body for an insta-kill. I also see Death being problematic since all he needs to do is look at them and its over, but I think the Six would likely take a majority since the Horseman have been/can be one-shotted.

But I don’t see them beating Lactuca so they shouldn’t get passed round 2. Even without specific feats Genesis/the dark god Annihilation didn’t want that smoke w/ her, and Storm noted Lactuca can literally teleport enemies into the sun if she wanted (this was noted In Red during Uranos’s manchines invading Arakko during Judgment Day). I don’t see what they can do to her, as she would know where they are anywhere in the universe (not seeing Mysterio being able to deceive her) and could easily BFR them or send them into the center of earth , the ocean floor, the vacuum of space, or the sun.

@mooty_pass: I love that Marvel is reminding the readership on Storm's TP resistance, and that while this issue was hella weird lol, I like that Nocenti expanded on Storm's ancestral magic being outlawed, Storm's elemental control, Storm's bioelectricity, and the strength of her TP resistance.

@mooty_pass: Excellent posts. And imagine how massive those multistory monuments are compared to the size of the mutants below. Compared to sentinels or Garrok. And they were one-shotted into rubble…

This was a GOOD week For Storm!! and some Good Feats.

Here is Storm having a Training Session with Iceman going full out. Notice storm was countering everything Bobby threw at her. And by Bobby's own admission Storm was beating him for a long time.

Start from Right to Left. I really don't know why it's like that.

I will post the Storm vs Ironman soon.

Such a good read and creative use of Storm's abilities. And putting that respect on her name. LOVED IT!

- Pressurized heat shield? Check

- Tornadic wind barrier? Check

- Hydrokinetic/Cryokinetic? Check

- Storm shaping, including Storm golem? Check

- Ring of lightning force? Check

- Manipulate form of another elemental? Check

Great week with this issue alone. Thanks for posting.

@malfunctionent: I agree. Going hand to hand was…weird and felt out of place for this fight considerably only his head is exposed. I liked that they were holding back with each other until she decided to give him a heavier dose of lightning for the “win”. But I was expecting more creativity from them both on this fight.

@mooty_pass: Yeah, I saw that in the Spiderman Annual for the Chaos event. I’m not sure how to feel yet. Its like I want to like this event, but I usually don’t care for hero vs hero when their heart isn’t in it. I liked the fight but not how it ended. The ultimate end result makes it a no-win situation for both of them. I’m still hoping for a good fight for Stiorm vs Iron Man , no matter who wins, but yeah I see what you mean.
