I’m not always crazy about her wardrobe, but with the power to control weather, she can wear whatever she wants. Aside from the fact that Storm is a strong black female character, she has one the most amazing and impactful powers in all the Marvel universe. When I think about really great superheroes, I consider what the impact of their abilities would be if they were actually villains.

If Storm was a bad guy, she could wipe out entire nations with floods, tornados, etc… I like to be inspired by characters like this when writing fantasy because it keeps me from being lazy with my creativity and imagination.
