Has Storm showed her full power?

A thread so good, you made it twice!

 

You will never see storms full potential because any time a writer wants, he can just make her do something more powerful than anything she's ever done and just say "she's letting out her full potential"

 

No, I think we may have seen the 50% mark but certainly not her full potential. Storm's one of those characters that should you showcase fully, would be difficult to see her operate with a team to take down enemies therafter that she could dispatch alone. For instance, for most foes that actually have to breathe, she could create a cyclone that could simply strip the oxygen from their lungs, denying them a chance or the ability to breath.

 

ever see the movie "Day after tomorrow"......

 

(Smile)
Yes she did,.... and scared the Xmen doing it.

Doom had encased her in metal,.. not knowing about her claustraphobia. She started a storm that would've destroyed Latvertia. her lighting cast offs, (Not the full strikes) hurt Peter Rasputin. When relieased she looked like a Black Phoenix and was radiating the same levels of power where the Xmen were freaking "Not Again"

 

Well, she's used her powers to raise Magneto's body temp before (when the X-Men fought him in Antarctica). Also, I'm pretty sure I've seen her see things by their electomagnetic fields before.

 

She's also shown a lot of control over her lightning before. E.g., some giant villain was clutching a hostage in his arms, and she blew off both his arms with simultaneous lightning strikes without hitting the hostage. (I think this was in the story arc where they went to Africa and Psylocke w/ crimson dawn powers fought Shadow King.)

 

I think we pretty much hit her full power whenever she freaks out.

 

In think every Marvel character at their potential is capable of a lot. Storm could destroy the world, like someone said, Day After Tommorrow stuff. Hulk has punched a hole in reality, and can probablly do worse at "FULL" stregnth. So on....

 

Storm Vs. Gaia, the ultimate battle!!!

Wearing the white with black trim and Weighing in at one twenty five, the fiesty, white haired african goddess...STORM!!!

In the other corner, wearing gray with a color I can't remember and weighing in at Captain Planet, the not as fiesty, white haired african goddess....GAIA!!

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.......LLLLLeeeeeet's get READY to RUMBLEEEE!!!

 

So Storm's ultimate potential is to be absolutely ******ed?

Sorry, I hate that movie with a passion. Don't be mad and warn me, Lightning Strikes.

 

It is a pretty bad movie.

 

If you mean full power as in "range" it depends on the writer.

I wrote a story once of a Danger-Room test done by the Xmen when she regained her powers,.... I went into detail as to what she saw and how she manipulated her area of the EMS to do the stuff she does.

I think the only copy of that story mat still be on the Storm Shrine,.. if they hadn't taken it off.

 

I had her using two ways to generate electricity,.... explained how she saw the EMS.

 

No. I agree with Genesis 1. She has not been put in a position to really cut loose.

 

Like I said, if she was truly written to her full potential, everything else after would make the rest of her team kinda useless.

 

Thor can manipulate weather to an even greater degree in all respects than Storm can, but the rest of the Avengers have never been useless.

 

I disagree.

But that's the debate for a Storm/Thor or Thor/Storm thread.

 

If Thor went all out in every issue, you really think he'd need the rest of the team? At least 70% of the arcs they had would be useless since Thor could have stuffed them alone. Same for Storm, she can tap into the very pattern that makes LIFE on the planet, even on other planets, she could raise tidal waves, create hurricanes/tornadoes, ect. Should she come with that type of power every time, what type of threat is Mystique or Calypso to her? Sabertooth? Toad? Friggin' Mojo? None, so instead she's written limited and the series runs along.
