Funny.

I swear you don't stop felching the X-men just coz they fight Magneto.

lol, you keep bringing that up like every answer I give about everything somehow has Magneto in mind. Magneto was the furthest thing from my mind when I gave this answer.

Doom has an impressive forcefield when it's up. But his arrogance is always his downfall. Unless he has it up at the start of the fight, Storm is gonna take him down.

If it'll make you feel any better, I'd give the same answer about any number of Avengers. And look at what I said about Panther vs. Doom. No Magneto anywhere in sight...

Why are we assuming that Doom will decide not to put up his forcefield though, that's presumptious to say the least.

Exactly.

Juggernaut has a forcefield and he never seems to turn the thing off. Why when it gets to Doom does he have to turn it on? Why can't he have it anyway?

-AC

Because Juggy's forcefield is ALWAYS on. Doom almost got blown up by a bunch of Latverian terrorists with a regular bomb in Spider-Man. His field isn't a constant by any stretch.

And even then, Storm can cause whether conditions within closed spaces. That includes inside forcefields.

Anyone else concerned that the X-Men writers have forgotten how to write?

You mean like Grant Morrison? Mark Millar? Joss Whedon?

Nope. Not concerned at all.

See what you tried to do there...didn't quite work.

No I don't. I mean the fact that the X-Men (in general) are suddenly pulling ludicrous powers out of their asses.

dude. get a clue. they're on sale at walmart for $19.99.

This is no contest, storm use to be my favorite character until she started dating every other x man. If she isn't flirting with gambit, it's wolverine and /or nightcrawler. She barely gives bishop the time of day. And any other guy she hasn't kissed isn't on her team--beast, gay-- northstar or taken--cyclops. Doom has 99 problems but a b*#@h aint one. Doom wins this easily.

you saying Storm a hoe dude? I'll taking to you E-blade 1.

Cyclops still fires optic blasts
Wolverine still cuts stuff
Colossus still punches things
Kitty still phases through things
Beast still....does Beast stuff

Would you like to elaborate on what ludicrous powers are being pulled out of whose asses?

Hmm...good retort. I guess I'll have to re-consider my argument now, huh?

This is fun...lion's den of pro-Doomness. I imagine it'll get worse before the day is out...

i'm not pro-doom at all. i just think your argument that storm can take
out dr. doom all by her lonesome is one of the most ridiculous things i've
heard here in a while. considering the entire x-men (storm included)
could not defeat doom. the fantastic four have major problems with doom.
you say storm just has to use electricity to take him down. wow.
it's that simple huh? i guess storm must be smarter than reed richards.

read a book.

Again, what you've done is try to move the argument from that to which you KNOW am I referring. That's never going to work.

Iceman. Magneto. Jean Grey. Every time they want to milk their cash cow they start massaging the fanboys by saying 'Oh you know what? Colossus can actually turn anything in the ambient atmosphere into metal.'

Bull. Two X-men alone took him out.

Wow, fireboy, rock guy and plastic man have difficulty beating Doom (despite the fact that they do every time). Must be a heavy hitter...

Thing by himself has beaten Doom. No stretch to that Storm can beat Doom.

read a book.

Keep your fanboy insults to yourself.

Explain, because *clearly* I don't know to what you're referring.

That statement would have a lot more credibility if you used an actual example of something that actually happened. Some characters have gotten more powerful. That's hardly limited to the X-men. Ask AC - he swears Hulk is infinitely stronger now than he was before.

Didn't Doom already beat Storm?

One of her early missions as the team’s leader involved the X-Men freeing the villain, Arcade, from the more dangerous villain, Dr. Doom (or actually, as was revealed later, a very convincing Doom-bot). Doom and Ororo felt some attraction towards each other, but that didn’t stop Doom from trapping her and her fellow mutants and transforming Storm into a statue of organic chrome. For a claustrophobe, this was a nightmare come true.

Oh, wait it was an Doombot. Well, anyway, Doom has probably encountered Storm before, so he knows what to except from her (hence, he would have his forcefield on). Storm has no protection from Dr. Doom's blasts and there is no means that Storm could destroy Doom's armor. Doom would win.

How can FF battle Doom, anyway? Doesn't he have diplomatic immunity?

Storm wasn't trying to fight him. There was no actual combat that took place. Instead, she simply surprised her and trapped her. If you want to count that as a defeat, fine. But she wasn't fighting.

Storm once sent a surprise lightning attack that disabled Dr. Doom's blaster gauge, but they eventually worked together to handle an army that was controlling Latveria at the time. I don't think they ever truly fought one another.

if storm can make the sentinels become disfunctional beccasue of her lightning, then shouldn't she be able to do the same with docs suit??
