Except that Comet Storm is a Mythic, and not in a core set, which means that this is more available both by rarity and by printing. And has a much better chance of being legal for longer.
Also, if you're just aiming at one target, this is better by one mana.
Don't get me wrong, I love Comet Storm - sexy instant speed, and no division - but it's not better in every way.
Also, I love this art for Fireball already, but when they put it in this special foiling style it's downright hypnotic.
@Aburaishi: Why thank you sir. (Nice to know no hard feelings were had. =) )

Why is Fireball rated less than 4? It's a classic.

Brutally inefficient, but at least it's brutal. Especially late game, and especially against a color combination devoid of blue/white shenanigans. I hate getting my own fireballs thrown in my face.
This is epic win with Reverberate.

Fireball, just a perfect balanced card. Lovely and classic.

Fireball will never look bad in my eyes. It's still one of my favorite spells that I love to fling into my opponent's faces. The flavor is what makes me love it (and the art is sexy!). I sometimes use Blaze every now and then simply because I feel sorry for it - I mean, it has epic art but the actual power of the card is pretty mediocre.

Yeah, I got nothin'. It's Fireball. What's there to say about Fireball?

Completely obselete with Comet Storm as an alternative.
@Magnor_Criol; Touché. You know your Fireball.

Besides, saying that something's worse than Comet Storm isn't exactly an insult. I'd put four Fireballs into a deck even if I had Comet Storms (in addition to, not instead of, of course).
