Did you know there was a Storm solo story: Lifedeath III


In 1984 and 1985, X-Men fans were given two powerful Storm stories, Lifedeath I and Lifedeath II.

However, Barry Windsor-Smith created another chapter in Storm's life, Lifedeath III, but it never made it out to us.
Well, as it turned out,Windsor-Smith actually worked on a THIRD LifeDeath installment (I do not know WHEN he did - it appears as though it was a goodly amount of time after the initial two parts), but Marvel rejected it.

Windsor-Smith held on to it until 1999, when he adapted the material into a new comic starring one of his new characters he had introduced in his Storyteller series at Dark Horse.

Storm was changed into Adastra. Here are some samples
