My Top 7 Storm Stories

Storm...my favorite X-Men character has been through it over the years. But through each issue, she remains strong.

So I wanted to share some of my favorite Storm stories


Marvel Team-Up 100- Ororo meets her future husband, The Black Panther. It was a cute story which gave us a glimpse of her childhood.

UXM 122- Ororo visits her childhood home in Harlem and learned the harsh truth about life. We saw a human side of her in this story.


UXM 151-152- Emma Frost switched bodies with Storm. After the switch was reversed, Ororo had to give Emma the beat down


UXM 170- Storm had to save the X-Men, so she toughen up and stabbed Callisto in the heart. I gain respect for her in this issue

UXM 188- Storm lost her powers, dealt with the shock of that and fell in love with Forge.

UXM 198- She came to terms with her fate and rediscovered her purpose.

UXM 290-Forge asked for her hand in marriage, but her hesitation caused Forge rescind his offer and leave Storm heartbroken...I cried after reading this issue.

  2. Storm is awesome isn't she? I hated it in the 80s when she went all punk and cut her hair.

    I've never been a fan of the Black Panther, so wanted Ororo to end up with Forge, but alas, at least she is a Queen now.

  4. I loved it when she stabbed Callisto through the heart! She's never looked so sexy...or deadly!

    I also loved her in her supporting role in Cable in the late 90s. Ian Churchill made her look beautiful, and she took on a very serene spiritual role.

  5. I can't believe you forgot the one (classic X-Men)where she was captured and corrupted by Dracula! That is my favorite storyline with Storm...She would make a great vampire.
