PSA: I'm not explaining anything to ANYONE after today after this post. I also want everyone to know if u like me or not is of no concern to me. But what is a problem is when hate accounts use things ive said out of context to create false narratives about me.

THE MISEDUCATION OF ORORO MUNROE!!! A thread meant to correct and dispel all misinformation about what her abilities are, how her powers work, and what she is capable of doing with her abilities. All sources are from 616 canon. Let's get started!
Seeing Wolverine fans now have to endure what every other non-wolverine fan has dealt with for like 20+ plus years feels absolutely amazing! Sucks for you!!!
Resurrection of Magneto Issue 3: Storm flexes her MULTIVERSAL POWER!!!!!
This will be a deep dive into the storm bits and why this issue demonstrates possibly her biggest feat to date...
.... A Thread
#XSpoilers
A friendly reminder. Ororo was born in New York City (Harlem to be exact) to a Black American father and a Kenyan mother. Ororo isn't from Africa and she is not just Kenyan. Her heritage and stories should be rich, including aspects of both her parents' ancestry.
It is revealed that not only Jean is Phoenix, but every mutant is also Phoenix. This means that all mutants collectively all make up the total sum that is Phoenix. This is why you see all the Phoenix mutants fight as one. "I am every mutant. Now and forever."

Ororo's history to T'challa was first explained in the Marvel Team-Up Issue
#100
. It is here we learned how they met when Ororo was traveling from Cairo to Kenya. They were said to be only destined as friends but fate would prove otherwise.
Reason 3: Ororo was stated as being "above race" because she rarely discussed it. This thankfully was not true in BP. She is written in black spaces where we get to see the intersectionality of being black, a woman and mutant. Yall already know the xoffices ain't touching dis
I do not care about the timeline, I don't care about the circumstances, and I don't care if they are currently together or not. The sooner YOU accept these two belong together and will always find each other, the sooner YOU will find peace!
Reason 2: We get to see Ororo happy, loving, and enjoying life, which is a wonderful balance to a life that is often mired in war and conflict. Ororo is a human at the end of the day who should enjoy the luxuries of not just fighting but living life to its fullest.
Reason 1: Ororo's history was further explored beyond just being a mutant. It was in the BP books we first learned her grandmother is still alive and we learn more about her father and her time in Harlem during the Outback Era!! The xoffices had no interest in this.
And before I get into the reasons, please know ororo had ties and connections well before they were married. this was discussed both in Priests Black Panther run as well as in the earlier Uncanny Xmen... ignore trolls and haters who suggest otherwise...
REASON 9: This is perhaps the most important. Her inclusion in the BP franchise has allowed her to be written by a very diverse group of writers typically not seen in her home office. This, subsequently can allow more diverse and well-rounded storytelling featuring Ororo.
REASON 10: Black relationships within the comicbook medium are rarely shown in a healthy and loving manner. As Coates showed this can be executed beautifully when a writer earnestly wants to showcase this. ... the end///
You're Probably Not A Fan of Ororo Munroe if You've Ever...
A THREAD
Disclaimer: This is not meant to be an all-inclusive list. Also, if you find yourself feeling some kind of way about it.... well a hit dog will holler!!
Reason 4: She has access to the larger marvel universe. She linked up with the avengers and Fantastic Four while in BP. she should be both earth and the universe's mightiest protector!!
REASON 6: She isn't written taking a backseat to her feiends and colleagues such as Logan, Cyclops, Emma, etc. Her voice/perspective is heard and is respected in the BP books. No lowballing of her to make others look good.
Storm is an energy manipulator whose powers result in weather phenomena. Just because she manipulates this DOES NOT mean the expression of this is ONLY weather.
@SeraphimRosen
Storm is not an omega level energy manipulator, she is an omega level weather manipulator. Vulcan is. When did emma take on wanda? The other is Carol Danvers, and if you bring up rogue, you need to get updated with Carol's powers in the current scenario.
@ororoswind
I mean it's a team... the voice acting, the animation and production all have been stellar. however, he is the nexus that allows for everything else to flow. they have to bring him back imo.
Reason 5: She lives for a world more in-line to the dream she first joined the xmen to help secure. She fights with mutants and non-mutants alike because she values ALL life; not just mutants!!! Xwriters tend to write her one-dimensionally which does her a disservice.
REASON 7: Ororo is written as the powerhouse she is. Even in a book she is featured in and not the main character, this is where we first find out she is potentially an omega and a literal goddess. Respect in this regard will always be given as the wakandans see her as a god!
*SPOILER ALERT*
Ororo showed out in Immortal Thor
#4
:
⚡️She has her own godhead not strong as Thor's YET
⚡️She hurts Thor twice with lightning & w/ Jovian Pressure
⚡️Reacts fast enough to catch mjolnir thrown full force by Thor
⚡️Both equal in power
⚡️Worthy to wield Mjolnir
REASON 8: She has a legacy she can leave indifferent to her ties to the xmen. Just as Grey/Summers is important to mutants, Ororo/Tchalla could be respective to this franchise as was hinted at by The Watcher. And no whatever that thing is w/ cable doesn’t count. yuck
Before starting it's very important to understand exactly what her creators had in mind when they created Ororo. They envisioned her to be the most powerful female character but after just 1 year in '76, it was asserted she may be the most powerful character ever (man or woman)!
1. Storm only controls weather.
This is the most incorrect I've seen stated about her, even from fans of the character. Ororo's MUTANT abilities allow her to control, visually see, & manipulate energy resulting in weather phenomena including universal/natural forces.
****SPOILERS****
⚡️Storm learning from Thor how to embrace her godhead
⚡️Storm learning mystical arts from Wanda
⚡️Storm on a global stage fighting for all life
⚡️Storm back with her true love again!!
I told you guys! I win!!!

2. Storm having magic is random:
As early as Uncanny 162, it was revealed HALF of her ancestry was made up of magic. Ororo has canonically always had mystical aspects to her blood; however, it was mainly a thing she didn't explore as it was forbidden to practice in her village.
Don't let what Ororo did against Xavier in Red and the rationale for doing so fool you about what your faves could do in the same situation. Ororo has a natural resistant against telepathy that has been shown time and time again.

@moussasworld
thank you for the excellent idea! Took a bit of thinking to complete this list so I hope you enjoy!
@ShyheemUnleash
@JaxBladeFitness
morph can only replicate the physical aspects of other mutant characters. he could stretch like Mr. fantastic, run fast like quicksilver. he couldn't however replicate telepathy or control metal like magneto.
Yall as the storm era is coming to end don't be sad. Be thankful we got the best xmen storm stories we've ever had in years. I know I've had my fair share of criticism but I really want to thank Al Ewing for writin the best storm stories I've seen since Claremont. you are a gem!
Please
@Marvel
no!! there are enough actual obscure black characters in the comics that need representation without the need to change white ones black. Thanks in advance.
Many moons ago in another timeline Ororo was shown 2 evolve into a pure elemental being. In the Black Vortex she saw a fully realized version of her elemental self soaring amongst the stars. Well babies it's confirmed. We will get an elemental storm in her solo! ⚡️⚡️
#XSpoilers
3. Ororo is not a goddess!
Claremont, in Comic Reader 1979, stated she was a three-dimensional goddess. As a child, a prophesy revealed her to be a goddess (outfit indicates this is after her time in kenya) & she eventually, via her ancestry, taps into her godhead.
I love looking on my TL and not seeing the girlies be able to talk shit. Between RoM 3 and Xmen 97 yall haters getting a reminder on just why Ororo is the Omega's Omega! Love it here!!
Al Ewing writing Storm potentially Phoenix-level abstracts, an announcement of Ororo's solo, and a return of my favorite xmen cartoon with Alison Sealy-Smith!!! Is it end of times cause the stars are aligned for us stormies!! We won!!
Can I just point out Ororo resisted and repelled Xavier forceful assault on her mind using his power as well as Cerebro. He should have known better...
Yall i just realized something. If Ewing writes Ororo's resurrection resulting in her goddess form fully realized not bound to her mortal body Coates vision introducing her as a goddess will be fulfilled by the xoffice and forever cemented!!! I can't wait for issue 3 of S&tB!!
4. Ororo power is not Phoenix-Level
In CR '79, Claremont says Phoenix & Ororo are equivalent in power. In another interview, he says Phoenix was not cosmic, & the resulting universe saving stunt we saw was equivalent to Ororo's. Thus, her power was always more than just weather.
The Krakoan era had some of the greatest art in Xmen history! Storm specifically had hair with volume, deep chocolate skin, & a costume that was perhaps her best ever. Sadly all good things must come to an end. Let's look at the Krakoan artists who fabulously drew Ororo. 📜
Back in Oct. 2018 I started a petition asking that Ororo's godhead achieved in Coates' Black Panther would be shown in the xbooks. In Oct 2024, 6 years later, the new xoffice is FULLY embracing her being a goddess and more in her Eternal Storm story. We finally won my friends!
I'm so ready for the ascension Ororo is going to make in her solo series written by the immensely talented Murewa Ayodele. I just wanted her to be a goddess but fortunate Muwera wanted to show her being something perhaps MUCH MORE.... STAY TUNED!

#STORM
I kno folks wanted Storm to b more present, I won't argue against that. However it NEVER helps to personally attack creators when looking to make your case. Keep your criticism focused on the material. This will only dissuade them from wanting to include her in future projects.
9. It takes time for Storm's powers to work
Another incorrect assumption. Ororo powers have been stated to work faster than a conscious thought or before anyone could react. Her powers even work subconsciously depending on her emotion or need to protect herself.
I will never forget what JD White's office did to her before Ta-Nehisi Coates came and single-handledly changed the direction of the character. Don't YOU forget it either.
10. Storm is not Omega
Before there was even a classification, Roguestorm showed ororo achieving near unlimited power but dialed it back to retain her humanity. She was later canonically confirmed to be omega in Hickman's Krakoa era.
8. Storm is a glass cannon!
Although she has human level durability, she has the ability to create shields to protect herself. So, if you don't consider Magneto and Sue glass cannons because of their abilities to create shields then Ororo is not one either.
The Most Dangerous Xmen.... A Thread!!!
A brief canonical look at instances across the years Ororo has been stated as being either the most powerful, dangerous, or strongest character in xmen!
Inspired by a bunch of folks who wanna play stupid and
@SunTaurean
😍
Just been thinking & Al Ewing really fulfilled what Claremont hinted at years ago. Ororo - the representation of a cosmic force potentially more powerful than Phoenix aka Avatar of Life - facing off against at least 2 anti-Phoenix beings. This is immense my friends! let's eat!
