I think Storm could do lots and lots of collateral damage but I doubt in either situation she'd be able to extinguish Apoc's life. He could hunker down and harden himself and survive.
Apocalypse vs. Storm.
I never considered her to be able to solo him but I don't know. She could definitely do some damage though.
I'd say Storm wins here. Apocalypse is partly robot so an EMP can hurt. Apocalypse may be more likely to win against magneto but Storm would actually have a harder time fighting Magneto . Anyhow, I don't see Apocalypse dodging Storm's attacks. A cannonade of lightning will do, but start it first with powerful wind bursts.

In sixty seconds, in a weakened state, he proved his dominance over an X-Men roster including Storm. This thread is a joke.

There's no reason that the same method wouldn't work but I thought he had fought him in an instance in 616, let me look through a few back issues.
Lol, how does he dodge them? He's a shapeshifter, and Storm isn't going to be firing off anything when she gets screwed by Apocalypse's fist.

The guy is a monster, he's been shown to overpower the Hulk and hold his own against Loki. Storm's a goner.

Agreed. Apocalypse takes this in a stomp. If the Xmen together get crushed by him, Storm alone stands no chance.

It was more so an observation, considering that the characters where not exactly the same in those realities (for example, in HoM Black Bolt decimated Apocalypse with a whisper, while in 616, he withstood his voice and was laughing all the way through), not that the methods (Magneto frying Apocalypse's brain, more or less) wouldn't be applicable for 616 characters.
As Lance said, Magneto ripping Apocalypse in half, as he did in AoA is debatable.

Certainly, most characters were, if not outright more powerful, certainly more ruthless in AoA. HoM is also debatable but I don't see how it's an inconsistent showing for either of them. Magneto would potentially use it in 616 if he deemed Apocalypse a threat to mutant survival, he's shown that he is willing to kill by the thousands in the past.
Considering how talked up BB's sonic scream is supposed to be, I thought a whisper in HoM was perfectly reasonable. 616 showings for Blackbolt's voice are extremely inconsistent tbh. It's supposed to level mountains. In WWH his 'Skrull Clone' barely phases Hulk with a scream and Dark Avengers have danced around him before. Later in War of Kings mere echoes of it are used to destroy entire fleets of Shi'Ar Warships. It's pretty up and down.

Agreed, 100%. Those inconsistencies are why I go with Marvel's description that "his whisper can shutter mountains, and his full voice is the equivalent of a nuclear detonation".
Yeah, the problem is since BB doesn't appear consistently in his own book, his appearances are only ever for the sake of the story. Thus his powers are changed to suit. It's a shame because he's a lot more interesting than all of the Dark Avengers combined." @Dane said:

" @Lance Uppercut said:Well, for reference on his control of his molecular structure, his first appearance has him stating quite clearly that he can restructure his molecules at will. Off hand, how he shifts his bodily structure to form numerous different weapons, increase his size/strength, and I believe that's even what he uses to heal. The AoA Method would require Magneto to gain a better control of Apocs metallic molecules (which I'm fairly sure he can transmute in to other substances as well, ala Ozymandias) then Apocalypse has. Magneto has always shown this sort of craftiness when it comes to stronger opponents, using their own abilities to work against them.I'm open to standing corrected.

The brain fry method would require an electro magnetic pulse, but IIRC, Apocalypse can absorb all kinds of energy. I know he's completely drained Cyke before, and his celestial tech has drained Loki of magical energy before. Can't say I've ever seen him absorb electro magnetic energy before, but I don't think it would be out of his range. In Storms case, trying to use lightning ala Hulk would end poorly for her, as he could simply absorb this energy.

Very true. If they haven't fought (and I can't find the instance I was thinking of) it's quite possible that Apocalypse is unaware of that kind of ability being able to affect him. More importantly I'd say is Apocalypse has gone through many changes in 616 that have surely altered his bodies molecular makeup (I'm thinking of Cable's solo series) and it's quite possible that his body would be affected in ways we cannot know." @Morpheus_ said:

I'll dig up some scans but it said in Cable & Deadpool that he had reconstituted his body using Nate's T-O Virus infected blood and it implied that his body was now made up of the same Techno-organic substance as Cable's arm used to be before he had it blown off by Silver Surfer and grafted a phalanx embryo into a new arm. Whether Apocalypse has altered his molecular makeup to change this is unclear however.
Yeah, he has to be seriously incapacitated or he can recuperate from the damage extremely quickly. Then again, Mister Sinister has full molecular control and he's been taken down by a lot less than Magneto. Apocalypse is suitably much more powerful though." @Dane: Well, Apocalypse has shown that he has knowledge of Magneto as a character. I'm sure someone that cunning and devious would be aware of Magneto's abilities and how they could be able to affect him. However, I'll admit that it's always been Apocs ego that holds him down and costs him battles, though to be fair, his reputation is kind of deserved. I knpw in the twelve arc when he was using robotic bodies he let Jean as the Phoenix get a full blast off at him both telekinetically and telepathically, and it did essentially nothing but damage his outer appearance. In a biological form, I'm not sure what the damage would have been, but with his healing abilities as well as his molecular control, I doubt the outcome would have been different. "
Storm can produce a powerful EMP to knock Apocalypse.
For the images where Apocalypse takes the x-men roster, Storm was written down and wasn't given any participation but just catch Henry. It is because marvel writers know how powerful Storm is and they just wanted other x-men to be more involved on the story.
Storm can knock Apocalypse with her wind bursts.
in regaurds to that scan posted earlier in the thread... storm didnt even get into the battle she was knocked out helping hank. he owned the x-men team in a weakened state with the exception of storm.
" @Lance Uppercut said:"Nice scans agreed apoc takes this "
In sixty seconds, in a weakened state, he proved his dominance over an X-Men roster including Storm. This thread is a joke. "
These scans prove nothing, sorry. The writer simply wrote Storm out of the fight stupidly. There is nothing in these scans to prove that Apocalypse can withstand her attacks. She dodges energy blasts that travel much faster than Beast was hurled at her. There is no reason she could not have dodged Beast as well and gone on the offensive. If you read the scans, she intentionally tried to catch Beast to protect him from injury, but it seems she didn't have enough time to safely absorb the impact as there was a window right behind her she crashed into before she was successful.
That said, Poccy gets toppled by a charge from Colossus. Of course he gets back up, but Storm's winds hit much harder than Colossus. Not only that, how is he going to locate her through a fog to begin with? I honestly don't think he poses much of a threat to Storm without weakening her and certainly not a threat to her given the motivation for her to fight outlined by the thread starter.
She can hurt him with brute force via wind manipulation. If she can strain out Magneto's powers with winds, force objects through mountains with her winds, generate winds at thousands of miles per hour, scour the surface of the world to its bedrock with winds and redirect the full power of Sienna Blaze with winds, she can definitely put the hurt on Poccy with her winds. As a matter of fact, I ask you to tell me one time where Apocalypse ever withstood an attack equal to what Sienna dishes out? If Storm starts using the kind of winds she used to redirect Sienna against Poccy, he's going to be creamed from the brute force of it. The other thing is Storm can use his energy absorption against him. He's been overloaded by less than what Storm can dish out with her lightning. She can overload him and beat him that way.
Now, what is Poccy going to do against Storm if she blinds him with fog and snow? How is he even going to be able to locate her?
None of the things listed are even remotely close to the power level Apocalypse produces. And please, inform me when he's been 'overloaded' by less then Storm?

IIRC, Cyclops overloaded him in X-Factor once. My memory is fuzzy,but I do recall Poccy being overloaded and ultimately defeated by this tactic there. Also, you're going to have to post scans to show Poccy demonstrating higher energy level and force level attacks than what Storm can dish out. Let me give you a hint: There are not any instances of Poccy demonstrating higher levels of energy wielding and brute force powers than Storm.
