I understand Doctor Doom haters now, all this Storm wanking is so annoying. She went from a cool and strong mutant to an idol pushed by the ESG mob.

It rocks that we finally get good Storm content after years and it’s making people mad because they’re so unused to it

Storm was always wanked but she's ultimately a jobber. She's the bottom of the top - and her being worshiped is very much a part of her character, and therefore so is the ego.
Jean mogs her.
Scott mogs her.
Wolverine mogs her.
In many ways Beast mogs her.
She's a mascot.
>Jean mogs her.
If you didn't start with this bullshit it'd be believable.
Doctor Doom is a different situation, sometimes it is excellently written despite the wank.
Storm has always been wanked, and wanked to, since inception
>Previous episodes has her bouncing breasts and jiggling ass
>Still not enough.
That haircut is so shitty. I don't know why they keep giving it to her. It doesn't suit her at all
It made sense in the 80's when Storm was portrayed a little younger and more as a "free spirit" than the more maternal and regal version of her in the 90's onward.
Because they were adapting a storyline that’s partly iconic for the Mohawk look being how she looked in it. Now it’s over and they ditched it.
It's a cool callback to the era of X-Men. comics they are adapting
It feels like baseded beings praise her solely for esg points
Captcha: kygsw
So the character that in universe was worshiped as a goddess went to being an idol?
Damn dude. You're right. I guess billions must die.
Rent free
bro the way that dude turned that corner was so fricking ass, they might as well have slid him in on a static png. his fricking head is facing the camera the entire time as if he fricking walked sideways through the hallway instead of having him go from his side to his face. Like the frick, every time i see webms from this shit the animation looks jank as hell.
Tell me how I know you're gay.
I actually saw the ass the first time dw, it's a fine ass but bro this show's animation went full weeb where everything seems badly animated except for the scenes where they go all out instead of like level amounts of quality.
I don't think anyone is denying that the animation is absolutely dogshit anon
She’s hot powerful and has cool powers with no less than 15 iconic quotes, 10 iconic costumes, and successful adaptations in movies, cartoons, AND video games. Why wouldn’t she be popular??
Storm was always a shit character. Hence the constant fail attempts by writers attempting to reinvent Storm and Marvel attempting to push Storm. It just became more noticeable now due to the Storm wanking that Ewing gave Storm and the new X-men cartoon.
moron
Stormwank has always been an issue, it's just gotten worse over time
Stormgays in turn, have also always been insufferable
NNNOOO X-MEN IS WOKE NOW NNNOOO

Have great respect for these accomplishments.
I swear all the storm wankers conveniently forget that she's a glass cannon that would die if any high tier so much as breathed on her. A problem a lot of Omega mutants have. That's most of her krakoa era fights never let her opponent actually touch her, that why Thor didn't fight back.
correct
For all her power Storm is just a woman. You don't need a high tier just sneak up on her and whack her in the head with a frying pan
Explain Omega mutans to me.
Person the writer thinks is cool. Storm is omega because she can control all the atmosphere. Iceman is omega because he can absolute zero. Gambit is omega because he can detonate the whole planet.
Omega mutant means they have infinite potential (or or accurately no known limit) in whatever their main power is.
can kill non-omegas in 100% of the fights.
>but what if an omega counters another omega
doesn't matter
In a perfect world it means there's no functional cap. Like, if you can make and control fire the question is well, how MUCH fire, how HOT can it get, ect.
There being a limit on skill or circumstances is fine but the premise that the ability itself is fundamentally not capped and could develop if enhanced or honed makes the most sense.
By that metric you can simultaneously see why they're scary but also accept that they'd get jobbed by heaps of people who just have genuinely overwhelming power capped or otherwise.
You can think of them as having no maximum top-speed
Then you have Nate, David and Franklin who are literal Gods and the writers just shrug off and ignore because of this. Well Franklin gets wanked but that is because they cope he's just a kid and can't properly deal with his shit yet (see above).
They have no max-speed but they've also got no max-acceleration. It's just a matter of pushing down the pedal.
Can there be two Omega mutants with the same power?
Cable, Nate, and Stryfe
Storm and Gabriel summers, I guess
Wolverine has been wanked for 20 years and you're mad about storm? If anything it's about time another one gets the spotlight
>Wolverine has been wanked for 20 years and you're mad about storm?
wolverine gets his ass kicked and not in combat is seemigly emotionally fricked all the time. storm almost had bp apologize to her for her stealing wakandas sacred sword
I think Storm wank is a result of Marvel trying to milk one of their few heroines that can sell. DC wipes the floor with them on that front
>I think Storm wank is a result of Marvel trying to milk one of their few heroines that can sell.
But like most X-Men characters, attempts at solo books always fail. People think these characters are more popular individually than they actually are, it's the team brand that's popular. Even Gambit and Cable can't really hold solo books for long anymore, it's just Wolverine and Deadpool.
>wolverine and deadpool
and that's only through name recognition, not because the writing is good
duos like cable and deadpool can work, but usually the writing for solos isn't that great. i'm willing to bet they'll always be doomed to fail because editorial doesn't allow big marvel universe stories unless it's spider-man
>and that's only through name recognition, not because the writing is good
If we wanted good writing we wouldn't be reading Big 2 comics in the 2020s, would we?
No Marvel or DC book sells because of "good writing", they sell because of the name value of the character, or the name value of a star creative team, and those people being "stars" doesn't necessarily mean they're "good". A lot of people insist some of the biggest star artists the industry ever saw were bad, and a lot of star writers actually suck at superhero comics, but have cults of personality following them around.
>duos like cable and deadpool can work, but usually the writing for solos isn't that great. i'm willing to bet they'll always be doomed to fail because editorial doesn't allow big marvel universe stories unless it's spider-man
Solos for team book characters tend to fail because they're not designed for solo stories, they have no life outside their team, no normie supporting cast friends and family, few villains that are specifically theirs, no life outside their team, and fandom having little interest in them existing outside of their team. Wolverine, Gambit and Cable are the only X-Men people who really work as solo characters with lives outside of the X-Men.
just because good writing in the big two is unlikely doesn't mean it's impossible
>name value
which won't be sustainable if the writing is trash
>not designed for solos
you're just re-explaining what i've already said. when writers don't give a solo character their own new villains or powerful antagonists they can even borrow from other hero's rogue's gallery, the title doesn't last
>wolverine, gambit and cable
wolverine is oversaturated crap, gambit would have to be involved in espionage stuff and other street level characters like daredevil for him to be interesting, and cable is mostly played out at this point while nate grey has basically been dropped. but with nate grey the writers fricked him over because they wouldn't give dark beast a power boost to make him a better antagonist to nate grey. remender used dark beast in uncanny x-force and it was great, and he didn't even get a power up. wasted potential everywhere
>with nate grey the writers fricked him over because they wouldn't give dark beast a power boost to make him a better antagonist to nate grey.
Dark Beast wasn't even X-Man's recurring villain, of the AoA characters that was more Holocaust's role, and Nate was so OP even he wasn't powerful enough for him.
>none of what you said changes the fact that power ups are fine if the character struggles and works for things to improve themselves.
Marvel isn't Dragonball, we're not getting a constant stream of new OP villains to match the level of the heroes as they get more powerful. We're largely stuck with most heroes' rogues galleries as they are, if anyone creates a new character that's actually any good they don't want to give it away to Marvel or DC. And most writers don't bother to give the villains power boosts, so the heroes just end up gradually outclassing them all. On paper power boosts may not sound like a bad thing, but they usually are, and blaming that on "bad writing" is talking like they're suddenly going to find better writers and hire them, which just isn't going to happen.
Nate Grey had a solo for like 10 years that's insane
Wank in general should be frowned upon. Stormwank shouldn't get a pass just because Wolverinewank is a thing, she's basically a mutant Miles where the same answer to a problem is using lightning, and if that somehow fails, bigger lightning.
DC is the worst of all wank, not even isekai has mary sue as bad as this universe.
Nothing can beat Reed Richards wanking, the guy went from scientist guy who wants to go on adventures to perfect billionaire, and smartest being who ever lived in the multiverse that consistently beat literally omnipotent beings every week while being magically talented on everything.
Yet he still can't properly cure Ben Grimm
Iron Man beat Magneto in a fight.
with prep time
Batman beats anyone with preptime, doesnt mean he is stronger than superman or darkseid
Batwank is as real as it is fake. Most of his stories have his contingencies either going wrong and fricking him over or being inadequate and him skating by on luck.
Unless he's allowed to initiate on a completely unsuspecting opponent who doesn't want to harm him he's a dead moron.
If Clark wanted Bruce dead he'd die and in most cases that's what he get. There's no flawless Bat victory. There's at most a pyrrhic victory as a result of other people supporting Bruce unplanned.
You get one Batwank story that actually wanks him all the way to the end for every four that show him to be the jobbing pseud he is. But they make him the good guy who ekes out a good ending anyway so Battards eat it up.
Say what You want at least Batman writers still put a thinking and how Bruce triumph with his prep times. At least he has massive resources and extensive training to back him up.
Modern Heckblazer Constantine homever becoming magic Batman but know and can do everything just because he is Constantine. Every characters beside would either died thanks to is machinations or dumbed down to showcase how smart he is. He even backstabbing Allies in broad daylight in Dceased without getting any comeuppance.
What's the point in complaining about Constantine? Nobody likes him, not even Constantine.
>that can sell.
Every attempt to sell Storm has been horrible. Even X-men red was one of if not the lowest selling X-team books. Nocenti mini last year was a bomb that couldn't even make the top 50. She couldn't even string together a 12 issue series. Fricking Ellis Karnak sold higher than her 2015 series. Storm is even worse than Carol and Kamala when it comes to a vocal fanbase that doesn't buy comics.
>Fricking Ellis Karnak sold higher than her 2015 series.
At least Karnak's arrogance was thrown back in his face and he was left humbled and doubting the bullshit he was peddling. Writers actually believe the bullshit that Storm is perfect, and that sure as frick does not lead to an interesting character to read about.
To be fair Nocenti has put out garbage for at least a decade now. Ultimately the main issue with them attempting Storm solos is they don't want to write Storm solos, they want to write Storm and the X-Men.
marvel is too smooth brained to give power ups to other mutants. in the 3 part beast miniseries beast uses some kind of concussive blast to get a disguise off of him (unless it was pure muscle flexing) and you'd think that the triangle technique that xavier trains everyone with would allow for super intelligent and strong will characters to be resistant to mind control and psionic attacks
only recently as jubilee allowed to have a huge explosion showing off her powers in x-terminators.
beast hasn't gone through another mutant change again which could make him even stronger and smarter
if even half of the stupid power wank magneto got to pull a missile from space back to earth was put on polaris it might actually be cool. magneto is completely OP
scarlet witch is treated like pheonix in the sense she hasn't fine tuned or gotten more control over her power
multiple man STILL isn't an exceptionally experience character yet that could literally have the experiences of countless people in a single mind. that was touched on but it was dropped later
dani moonstar still hasn't gone out and done outer space missions with beta ray bill and silver surfer even though she's a powerful valkyrie which should have been an asgardian level power boost
transonic hasn't turned in to an aircraft or spaceship reminiscent of Farscape's Moya
Threnody hasn't been able to reverse her power and keep someone from dying
Archangel hasn't gotten an upgrade to strongest healing factor in the marvel universe
it's all so tiresome. marvel just dials it in and mary sues whatever character
>anon wants EVEN MORE power creep in X-Men comics
>and is still talking about Scarlet Witch as a mutant ten years on from that being undone
it's not power creep if the characters work for it and have struggles
you fundamentally misunderstand the difference between mutants who are not omega level and Storm, who cake walked through things that should have been more difficult
"omega level" has been a cancerous concept, and the power creep has gotten so out of hand in X-books that it doesn't matter if the story justifies it or makes people work for it, it still ends up in the same place with yet another character becoming too OP for the setting.
Storm is getting written like this because they're pandering to her fanbase, who constantly want insane OP feats. Most waifugays want sexy costumes, fanservice and maybe shipping with the specific right guy they self-insert as, but Stormgays want feats. They're featgays, which sounds like feetgays but is a different kind of perversion.
>character becoming too OP for the setting
this is, once again, the fault of bad writing, not plot devices
>storm pandering
yes i am well aware. none of what you said changes the fact that power ups are fine if the character struggles and works for things to improve themselves. i never said "just give them shit", i specifically said dont' do that
to be fair mutants come in two flavors, overpowered character who on paper could beat almost anybody but for some reason jobs constantly, and useless character
well and wolverine I guess.
making the useless characters a bit more powerful so they can do something cool every now and then wouldn't be bad
Brevoort is gonna push a lot more mutant solos so we’ll see what happens
this is spam, this anon is posting this copy/pasta in multiple threads
It’s very funny “Storm wank” is her losing her powers and gaining them back. And 97 didn’t even do stuff like her beating Cyclops in a fight for X-men leadership
because comics are literally for smooth brains
if they followed the lore without any changes in the show
you'd just get more smooth brains incels b***hing about YASS KWEEN WHYT MAN RUL IS OVAH!
>stuff like her beating Cyclops in a fight
Let's be honest, this "win" was basically just forcing Cyclops into a position where he had to stop fighting or risk killing her. She didn't physically win a fight, she took advantage of his morality in a way that wouldn't work against a villain.
Scoreboard
Did the original series adapt the stuff with the Morlocks and her duel with Callisto?
>Did the original series adapt the stuff with the Morlocks and her duel with Callisto?
Yes but I haven't seen it in like 20 years so I don't know what changes they did
How is this storm wanking when the show only gave her half and episode twice? If anything 97 is Magneto/Cyclops wanking
>Fought prime Black Bolt to a standstill
>Defeated Nova Prime
>Defeated Gladiator
>Lost to a strong independent black woman that needed no man because Wolverine would rather be the 3rd wheel than frick Storm.
...Please tell me it wasn't Ric at that point.
To be fair she admitted she had help there
The most annoying thing not him losing but that they don't even explain how that shit even worked. A recurring problem with Storm wank. Yeah her powers are good but they have the twist story and ignore holes in her game to claim just act like she is the strongest mutant around in the krakoa era. They pretend that somehow Storm is going stop any of vulcan's energy manipulation bullshit that isn't just shooting beams, resist Omega level telepaths, Telekinetics that can blow up her head. Sins of sinister had him beat every hero imaginable and take over every x-men but couldn't get storm. Killed scarlet witch, thanos, and Odin, but Storm was too strong.
Guys, I think Storm is Batman
There's one very good option to use as an out for explaining all that shit but it would involve more or less admitting that like with Jean her powers basically have nothing to do with her being a mutant and everything to do with a powerful cosmic entity deciding to just fricking make her powers work like that, but Oshtur's association with Dr.Strange is probably too strong and it'd require them finally openly admitting that for some mutants the X-gene just doesn't actually do anything like they've implied for decades with Jean, Wolverine, and a few others.
It'd also arguably be even wankier though considering it'd indirectly put her in the same ballpark as fricking Galactus depending on how much Oshtur feels like playing sugarmommy each day. Agamotto had to be talked out of killing him back in the day and still only allowed it because Galactus couldn't actually break any of his toys permanently, just annoy the frick out of him and Oshtur's as strong, if not stronger.
Anon the last time they touched a major mutant with the whole "X-gene might be being overridden/superseded by elderspawn DNA" thing with wolverine even fricking lightly people shit their pants because they thought it was dumb, which it kinda was even if it did conveniently explain literally every fricking discrepancy between Wolverine and regular mutants that's cropped up over the years the same way the Phoenix having a Jean boner did.
Best we'll ever get is that shit that happened with Wolfsbane and whatever moronation they're currently doing with Wanda at the moment that desperately needs to be retconned out of existence.
Vulcan still sucks, Ed.
Nobody cares about your OP OC.
aight so who's dying
>Storm gets to flex in what is an eternity since she was allowed to for just 2 minutes
>this makes OP reeee like a baby
This is why I’ve stopped taking this place seriously.
Is it just me or does Magneto's use of his powers seem very inconsistent? The train whip was cool and all but why couldn't he just manipulate the big three-headed Sentinel itself? Did I miss something that implies he can't interact with whatever material they are made out of?
> use of his powers seem very inconsistent
I see that the goal of this series is to be comic accurate
Sentinels have been made of plastic since around the Master Mold episode of the cartoon in the 90s. They should have communicated that in the new series, though since that's something a new viewer would ask
Sentinels are made out of non-magnetic materials in the show. I think in the episode where magneto first shows up they might state this.
>why couldn't he just manipulate the big three-headed Sentinel itself
Literally covered in the original series
>She went from a cool and strong mutant to an idol pushed by the ESG mob.
You think they've called her goddess all these years for fun?
Doom getting wanked makes sense, the is THE Marvel villian, THE S+ lister
Storm is wanked by gay writters going yasss queen
Dude, the writers in the comics unironically fricking go "daddy Doom is the only thing that can save the world" when he's the fricking villain. You want him to be a badass threat, sure, I'm on board, but he shouldn't be the fricking key to the world being safe.
>Doom getting wanked makes sense, the is THE Marvel villian, THE S+ lister
no it doesnt. not when current writers try to go out of their way to make doom win. shit is old
>Doom getting wanked makes sense, the is THE Marvel villian, THE S+ lister
Because he gets wanked. It's a feedback loop.
I'd been fine with doom wank if he was still treated like a villain. Problem is wanting him to be the be biggest threat in the multiverse and also be respected by all the heroes.
Somewhat popular black characters that have nearly no previous connection get officially shipped because both are somewhat popular and black.
Seriously, frick modern Marvel.
You hate Doom because the writerwank has turned him into a villain-sue
I hate Doom because he is a gypsy. They even incorporate this into his powerset (stealing power from other people through trickery and brute thuggery)
I like it.
I want her to wrap her chocolate thighs around my head
