IW could put a bubble in her brain, implode her lungs, hit her with super human strength with a though, way before Storm can call anything even remotely strong to bother Susan.

Yeah, it depends on which happens first. But while she's doing that, crystal is helping storm.

She causes IW's lungs to explode or creates a storm in her shield and overloads Polaris to the point of seizure.

I hope Yost gets it right in that she can take on and DEFEAT the Shadow King unaided.

I hope this battle awakens the sorceress supreme within Storm.

Storm breathes when Sue allows it.

2damnloud
Cool.

Won't keep her alive, though.

Too bad Sue still loses since Logan was a.) caught off guard b.) doesn't have the offensive capabilities to distract Sue and explode her lungs.

Example, fight starts, insta-lightning, Sue goes for the defensive, before she can mount one, she's dead; Fight starts, she's flash frozen and shattered.

Turning invisible won't work, either, since Storm doesn't need photon refraction to see; She can see matter as pure energy.

Let's not even get into Storm possibly altering the wavelength of the radiation Sue manipulates rendering it completely harmless.

Storm is too powerful.

Mindset
Seriously, Storm is around skyfather level, people just don't want to give her the credit she deserves.

I agree 1000% 2damnloud, or rather 2damnsmart

If Storm can't beat Magneto then what chance does she have against the green haired Mistress of Magnetism?

Despite Sue soloing, Polaris is still a better teammate than Crystal.

^Dumbass, ape-like abc logic.

Could it be the fact that Lorna has gotten pwned in every encounter?

Storm can kill Magneto if she so chooses.

Sue will die as well.

Team 1 for the win.

Ape logic? Is that a stab at black people?

Storm can kill Magneto if she so chooses? Well I guess it is a good thing that her morals stop her from doing so. Just because you have the power to do it doesn't mean you'll always do it. Goku can kill his enemies but he doesn't. Prof. X could stop a lot of people too but he doesn't. Superman could've killed Darkseid many times but didn't. Thus bringing up Storm could do something that she would never do is pointless.

Also Yost and Kyle write Wolverine and the X-Men.(I don't think it's aired by you guys yet, but it's decent. *wink*Episode 4*cough*)

Also in the solicits for UXM #505 state:

That Storm demands and audience with Emma Frost, I wonder what they'll talk about.

You should definitely consider picking up the Uncanny X-Men Annual that's coming out in January. It's a Dark Reign book on Emma Frost. Storm might be involved in the event, I heard the Black Panther is supposed to be heavily involved some how, but they could be refering to the female one.

Christopher Yost already handed in his final script. From the interview he believes that Storm can't beat Shadow King. I'd say he probably intends Emma to take down the Shadow King on the astral plane since Storm is unable to hurt him at all. Storm will probably hold off T'Challa and Wakanda while Emma protects her from the Shadow Kings influence since we now know that he can possess her anytime and is toying with her by giving her the choice to choose between the X-Men and T'Challa.

If you look at the solicits for issue #4...
Storm gets help from an unlikely source...I didn't realize this was Emma until the previews for issue 2

Also if you watched Wolverine and the X-Men which Yost is involved in:
Emma saves Storm and defeats the Shadow King

Hope that helps bud. big grin

No, I actually liked Rise and Fall 'cause it made Gladiator look good. stick out tongue Emperor Vulcan made him look...not.

And thus, this fanboy was very sad. sad

I agree with the Rachel stuff, though. Wish they'd kill her off or something.

That's true, the one good issue I liked in RAFOTSE was UXM #480. I also liked the scene where he punches the Phoenix's head off.

I think War of the Kings will make him look better. I asked a question to the Editors a while back before they even planned this event about the Imperial Guard and how they're made up to look like jobbers when they're powersets on paper are ridiculous.

In fact Polaris was supposed to take out the entire Imperial Guard in that mini...and Yost had to take that out most probably because they wanted to turn it into a crossover. Although I prefer to think that it was question that did the trick. stick out tongue

That at least made them aware of it I hope. Can't fault me for trying. embarrasment

I think Phoenix is some how going to be involved in this...they wanted to use Jean in the last Annihilation and the X-Office said no. Looks like they may want to use Rachel.

Jean in Annihilation would've been really cool. It doesl look like they're building Rachel up. The last issue of Emperor Vulcan made her look pretty uber. And she got that (probably small) upgrade from Korvus' sword...so, who knows.

So I won't be spamming completely, I'm gonna give team two (Sue/Lorna) the solid majority win.

Team 1 wins. There's absolutely nothing that has been put forth to prove otherwise, whereas Storm has beaten Polaris twice and can work her powers through Sue's forcefield, so her "defense" is irrelevant.

2damnloud
Probability also lends credence to Storm having the ability to even control and deflect the exotic energy Sue uses. Trion dimension, anyone?

Funny because I don't seem to remember it being done that easily. Storm told them that Shadow King could not survive without a body and Emma just barely survived while the Shadow king beat the crap out of her.

It wasn't until he was weakened enough from not having a host was Emma able to defeat him.

Her exact words were "No, He's much too powerful" when Logan asked if she could defeat him.

Storm was able to get out of the illusion and Stop the storm before shadow king was even out of her body.

If Yost does plan to have Emma fight the Shadow king it won't be under her own battle standards to have her win fair and square. He'll likely use the angle that Shadow king needed a body and he was weakened.

I also believe it was never made clear that Storm even tried to fight the Shadow king. She was too busy trying to whip up the best Storm she could to stop the illusion that her village was on fire. it was never implied that she was in any danger until the Shadow King tried to posses wolverine and kill her in which Then Emma came to her rescue.

Well duh. Umm Storm needed Emma to help her break the illusion. And on top of that Emma saved Storm by pushing her astral form out of the way from the Shadow Kings scythe. She also managed to smack him around before he weakened so she'd be able to keep him at bay for a while.
Also Storm was helpless until Emma came to her rescue. Regardless the point I was making still stands, Storm will need Emma's help. It'll most likely be a team up between the two since the issue is Storm centric but with all the uber feats by Emma lately I wouldn't be surprised if she locks him away without aid though.

Yost said in an interview that it doesn't matter if you're one of the strongest monsters in the universe, you do NOT mess with Storm.

Why say that only to let EMMA beat, or at least play an intrical part in defeating the antagonist? It would be so anti-climactic. Who's Storm going to beat, the Wakandan Army? Cyclops? Please. They're weak!

Storm needs to solo, this her time.

Storm will also be doing waaaay cooler things than that lungsthing, according to Yost.

I don't know bud, maybe that's why they're calling it X-Men: Worlds Apart and not Storm: Worlds Apart...I always found that odd.

It's probably going to touch on the Storm/Emma relationship as well. Explain how they seem to be "getting along" in Astonishing X-Men and Uncanny X-Men.

I think she's going to fight T'Challa and Wakanda. T'Challa probably has a contingency plan for Storm. And I wouldn't call Wakanda weak.

BTW I wonder if the Panther God will appear.

I'm not sure, looks like she threw the guys aim off with her wind and he missed. Are those holes in the right hand side of her cape? Or are those small looking explosions hitting off the debris?

If Storm was really in danger inside her own mind why would The Shadow King need to possess wolverine in order to finish her off? The whole point of the matter is if he could possess Storm why didn't he? Same with the mini he has to possess the people around her in order to affect her. All he did(or could do) in the cartoon was put an illusion in her mind and after she figured out it was that she was able to shrug it off. If Storm was helpless how would she fully be able to break the illusion and stop the Storm without the aid of anyone else? Yes Emma did reveal to Storm that it was an illusion but so did Wolverine. As far as I know there was no telepathic manipulation by emma to remove the illusion.

When Emma got b@tch slapped out of Storm's mind and then again with that axe thing why in all of this hasn't the Shadow King taken Storm out? Why would he need to go in another body to finish her off? According to Emma in the cartoon she was no match for the Shadow King and if storm's no match for him in the mini then neither is she. According to Yost that is...

It's really hard to tell but that guy looks like he's shooting point blank range. I don't see a dome around her tho so I'm guessing that nasty Storm she just whipped up knocked off his accuracy like Exodus Cloak said.

Ain't that something? it looks just like his psy displays in the cartoon! That was also a very nice Zap, we all know shadow king deserved it. smile And as far the mini goes I think Storm could handle The Shadow King, but he's playing real dirty by messing with the people around her.

According to Yost that is...

She got sucker punched the first time and then smacked out Storms mind trying to protect Storms astral form by placing her body in the way. He needed to change bodies because they just knocked Storm out of the skies and she was exhausted thus she was useless to the Shadow King. He didn't only need to finish her off he needed to finish the other X-Men off and seeing how Wolvey is the be all and end all in the cartoon, possessing him would have been the right choice.
Emma made Storm aware of the illusion. The Shadow King was not trying to possess her, like always he wants to toy with her. What's worse then making her destroy the African Continent while thinking she's saving it?

Same with the mini, he's toying with her. If he wanted to he could have just left her on the astral plane. But he places her mind back into her body so she can choose between her friends and family.

Which is why they're going to team up. That's most likely what the solicits mean when they say Storm gets help from an unlikely source.

She was exhausted after she dispersed the Storm not after she was knocked out of the sky. My point is why didn't he finish her off anytime before that? I also caught the part where Emma moves Storm out of the way which I acknowledged that Emma did save her there. But the point is Emma stated and it was shown that she was no match until after The Shadow King weakened from lack of host. It never showed the shadow king back in Storm's mind trying to take her out, she broke the illusion and stopped the storm and Shadow King screamed his epic "no". After that he attempted to go into wolverine's body so he could kill Storm but never in any of the whole episode did Shadow King take control over her actions like he did the others.

Just watched it again. Wolverine stated that "he used her all up, her strength is gone. " Thus Storm was useless to him. And I agreed that Emma only managed to hold him at bay not defeat him. That's why they're going to team up.
That's because he was toying with her. Actually he did possess her...right after she stopped the storm and grabbed Wolverine's face. He never bothered to possess her early on because he was toying with her, he wanted her to destroy Africa. He wanted to make her pay for what Xavier did to him.

Great points

I'd have to agree that he did possess her and i can't even believe I forgot that part. But we again have to bring up the argument of was this possible because her "Strength" was gone? smile

I also agreed that her strength was gone but it was after the shadow king had given Emma a few slaps. I also seen the part when shadow king used the axe again, It "appears" as tho he was purposely trying to use it on Emma instead of Storm.

I'd have to agree that he did possess her and i can't even believe I forgot that part. But we again have to bring up the argument of was this possible because her "Strength" was gone? smile

I also agreed that her strength was gone but it was after the shadow king had given Emma a few slaps. I also seen the part when shadow king used the axe again, It "appears" as tho he was purposely trying to use it on Emma instead of Storm.

It could be, but it could also be due to the toying thing. To be honest it doesn't really matter because my point with it is Storm is getting help from an unlikely source in Issue 4 according to Solicits. And I think the most likely person is Emma. It seems to fit with the Preview for 2 and does make a lot of sense. What do you think?

True, although she did take a hit for Storm. She could have gotten herself out of the way and left Storm in the way of the scythe but she didn't.

Anyway I'm mostly looking forward to December and January. Particular January though for this:

At first I thought she was Eve...then I thought she was the snake. Now I realize she's both tempting and being tempted.

I think you have a good point, Emma is definitely the likely person to aid Storm against the Shadow King which could come to end their little feud they've had over the years.

And I agree that Emma took the hit but I'm still in wonder at how Storm survived after Emma was knocked out of her head with the scythe. It was a really well done episode tho, i think Emma is really stealing the show on there and she's quite likable.

Proper spoiler...end of season.
She is , it's the accent stick out tongue , hopefully she'll be back next season. I think Storm might get a little more spotlight now that Emma's gone as Jean is still and will always be boring.

I love the way they had that **** Jean blowing a kiss to Wolverine when she was together with Scott in episode 1. This was the start of the Emma and Scott pairing.

Oh and I can't wait till the next AXM issue seeing how Emma and Storm teamed up in that as well.

Agreed, i don't think the pairing of scott and jean will last, they'll likely give jean to Wolverine because he's so awesome...

I hope someone finds a way to put Emma's diamond form back together, she's too good of a character to be cut off now. Storm is slowly developing and I think I'll be liking her better then Evo Storm after the series progresses. Right now she's just there but I think I really enjoyed her in the angel episode.

God I can only hope she's not brought back by Apocalypse but I know that's going to happen. X-Men Legends 2 eat your heart out. sad

I can definitely see apocalypse bringing her back as one of his horseman. Perhaps that'll be the deal breaker for the pairing.

Also is it possible that storm will cut off all that ridiculous hair and go for her AoA look?

Probably not. stick out tongue...maybe her future self seeing how it's now AoA.
Anyway 2009 looks good. I hear Black Panther is supposed to be involved in Dark Reign I'm not sure if that's the new or old Black Panther. Love the Illuminaughty though.

Did this thread drift a tad off-topic or? Can't say it was any big loss though so I might as well continue in the same vein.



About Emma helping Storm in World's Apart.

I got the impression that this mini is going to be an ode to Storm so her getting help by Emma seems a bit unlikely for that reason alone.

Another thing that speak against it is that it's hardly "unlikely" as the solicit for issue #4 says. What other telepaths do X-Men have right now (Xavier also fails the "unlikely source" of course) and why wouldn't Emma be eager to help Storm despite their less than cordial relationship now that the Shadow King apparently has the X-Men caught in his web as well? For sake of self-interest if nothing else.

Finally, why would the writer retread what he did (or at least helped with) in "Wolverine and the X-Men"? Why not come up with something new instead?

Personally, I would of course like to see Emma have another role than damsel in distress (along with the other X-Men) to be saved by Storm, but I will not get my hopes up yet. stick out tongue

It's like someone made this after reading 2damnloud's fanboy rants about Storm and just decided to shut him up.

I'm actually not sure what's going on with that pic. Is Storm removing the air from the bubble (which would explain the pin hole) or shooting lightning at his enclosed head

Lightning to the head would be cool seeing that was the same trick she used against the Hulk during Onslaught.... big grin

Yeah well at least 2damn can now say that Storm has incredible accuracy with her lightning

So the scan settles this match. Team 2 ftw because no one in team one can do anything once Sues force field is in place, leaving them unable to harm Lorna and Sue while being vulnerable to magnetic attacks and force field impaling because they dont have shields of their own.

Pretty much, unless there are people blinded by fanboyism. erm
