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?
 
On the one hand its Storm in the Avengers on the other its also Storm written by Bendis

If you want good stories about Storm in the Avengers i recommend Marvel's All-ages print book Marvel Adventures presents the Avengers which was honestly better then 90% of their mainstream line when it was coming out. Plus one issue had a lovely image of Thor and Storm on a date comparing how to make lightning.

oh HELL! <<gag>> :eek:: He's STILL writing the Avengers!? The ONLY character he did right by (imo) was Spider Woman, bringing her back w/ some pizazz & upped power levels. Other than that? I've NEVER been able to get over what he did to that title starting w/Disassembled onward. DAMN I didnt know he was STILL writing it!
