Don't remember proclaiming myself that.
just randomly decided to jump on GalacticStorm's word. For some inexplicable reason (there's a reason). Galactic said it WASN'T a Doombot and for proof, check the comics. When infact it was a Doombot. So he was obviously relying on none of us owning it.
Wrong. Don't try to discredit me. I took his word because he wrote a description of what happened. I take EVERYBODY'S word for something when they describe a specific circumstance, so don't even try to make it seem as though I was biased.
Furthermore, I DID double-check the issue, and it went as described. I posted my summary of it myself. It was never revealed to be a Doombot in that issue, so there's no possible way anyone could know that's not the real Doom in that issue. In fact, I want to know WHO said it was a Doombot and how they found that out.
However:This is all based around "Storm can control inside his shield" and "If she beat a Doombot she can beat him". That's it. That's all. That's all they have to go by.
Because Storm CAN control this inside of his shield, because she can control anything with an atmosphere inside of it. Without his shield, he's defenseless.
Demi's example for the first quote was (yeah, get ready for this one) that the air you breathe in...wait for it.....comes from the atmosphere, so therefore it is also "weather".....there's more, therefore, she can control it inside you. Which I personally believe is the most desperate, overblown, farfetched comment ever. Considering her powers aren't anywhere near that concentrated or disciplined.
You're completely taking my quote out of context, figuring that the original quote is far enough back that no one will check or no one will remember. I never used that as a debating point until you started with all that magic crap and saying that "just because someone hasn't done it doesn't mean they can't". I said, "ok, well in that case...."
And YES, atmosphere and weather conditions extend to EVERYTHING that touches it. That's science 101. Nothing far-fetched or desperate about it. Her powers are so concentrated and disciplined that she can create a cloud storm in her hand, create rain from within a box to sustain herself, or create a storm from the inside of a glass jar, she could for damn sure do it inside of a person. I mean, think about it - what's really the difference? They're all containers of air provided for them by the atmosphere. It's not far-fetched at all.
GalacticStorm's was, "She can beat a Doombot. She can beat Doom then."
Assuming that was really a Doombot, then it changes from direct to circumstantial evidence. She was able to overload the shields of a Doombot that is based on identical technology to Doom. Stands to reason she could do it to Doom.
