Marvel.com said:Storm will be joining the Avengers, beginning in Avengers Vol. 4 #19 to be released in January 2012
hmm. Well Wolverine & Beast have both served on the Avengers. Dazzler was offered active roster membership w/ the Avengers twice. Now Storm will join the longstanding team. I'm not sure what I think about this yet. I enjoyed her guest spot w/ the Fantastic Four. Her banter w/ Human Torch & bitchy retorts to Thing were very amusing & she prooved to be very deft & powerfull in battle w/ the FF. It harkened back to her glory days under Claremont's X-men.
In the aftermath of Schism, I'm still dismayed that she chose to remain w/ bitchass Cyclops' X team rather than join Wolverine's @ The Jean Grey School for the Gifted. I feel like Storm has been watered down SO MUCH in the 2000s & now? <<sigh>> I don't know what to think. She claims she "needs to keep Cyclops on the right path" but i think it was obvious to her when the revelation about the new X-force came out during 2nd Coming that Cyclops was not @ all the person she thought he was & she even asked him did he think about what JEAN would say if she could see what he was doing. He's lost the respect of alot of the CORE X-men including Storm & to see her remain w/ him is a puzzler to me.
Perhaps going to the Avengers, she'll get a chance to SHINE again like the goddess she is. It's just too bad there'll be no interactions between her & Wasp. I'd LOVE to see how those two would regard each other.
Your thoughts?
