Publication history

1970s

Storm, a.k.a. Ororo Munroe first appeared in 1975 in the famous Giant Size X-Men #1 comic, written by Len Wein and pencilled by Dave Cockrum. In this comic, Wein uses a battle against the living island Krakoa to replace the all-WASP, first-generation X-Men of the 1960s with a slew of international X-Men.^[1] Storm was an amalgamation of several characters Cockrum intended to use for the Legion of Superheroes. In an 1999 interview, Cockrum said that the original black female of the Legion would have been called The Black Cat. According to him, she had Storm's costume but without the cape, and a cat-like haircut with tufts for ears. However, other female cat characters like Tigra had appeared, so Cockrum redesigned his new character, giving her white hair, the cape, and so created Storm. When colleagues remarked that Storm’s white hair made her look like a grandmother, he just said: “Trust me.”^[5] Download high resolution version (484x721, 144 KB)Cover to Giant-Size X-Men #1. ...

Chris Claremont, who followed up Wein as the writer of the flagship title Uncanny X-Men in 1975, embraced Storm and started writing many notable X-Men stories, among them the God Loves, Man Kills and Dark Phoenix Saga arcs, which respectively served as base for the films X2 and X-Men 3. In both arcs, Storm is written as a major supporting character. This was a harbinger of things to come, as Claremont stayed the main writer of that comic book for the next 16 years and consequentially wrote the most of the publications containing Storm. Chris Claremont (born November 30, 1950 in London, England, United Kingdom) is a comic book writer, best known for his 16-year (1976-1991) stint on Uncanny X-Men, during which the series became one of the comic book industrys most successful properties. ...

In Uncanny X-Men #102 (December 1976), Claremont established Storm’s backstory. Ororo's mother, N'Dare, is the princess of a tribe in Kenya and the descendant of a long line of Africans with white hair, blue eyes and a natural gift for sorcery, in which Storm's Kenyan ancestor, Ashake, is expert. N'Dare falls in love with and marries African American photojournalist David Munroe. They move to Harlem in uptown New York City, where she becomes pregnant with Ororo and bears her, and then to Egypt during the Suez War, where they are killed in a botched aircraft attack and leave six-year-old Ororo as an orphan. There, her violent claustrophobia is also established, result of being buried under tons of rubble after that attack. She then becomes a skilled thief in Cairo under the benign Achmed el-Gibar, and wanders into the Serengeti as a young woman. There, she is worshipped as a goddess before Professor X recruits her for the X-Men.^[6] The Sorceress by John William Waterhouse Magic and sorcery are the influencing of events, objects, people and physical phenomena by mystical, paranormal or supernatural means. ...

Claremont further fleshed out Storm’s backstory in Uncanny X-Men #117 (January 1979). He retroactively adds that Professor X, who had recruited her in Giant Size X-Men #1 of 1975, already meets her when she is a child street thief in Cairo. As Ororo grows up on the streets and becomes a proficient thief under the tutelage of master thief Achmed el-Gibar, one of her most notable victims was Charles Francis Xavier, the later Professor X. He uses his mental powers to prevent her escape, and also recognizes the child has a unique mind that requires further examination. However, Xavier is attacked mentally by Amahl Farouk, the Shadow King. The two men are preoccupied enough with their battle to allow the girl to escape. Both however recall her later.^[7] Professor Charles Francis Xavier, also known as Professor X, is a fictional comic book superhero and founder of the X-Men in the Marvel Universe. ...

1980s

In the following issues, Claremont portrayed Storm as a serene, independent character. Although Storm initially is written having trouble adjusting to Western culture, e.g. calling the obligation to cover herself up in a public bath "absurd",^[8] she earns a lot of respect: in Uncanny X-Men #139 (November 1980), Claremont establishes her as the leader of the X-Men,^[3] a position she has held in various incarnations. Claremont also made Storm especially harbour motherly feelings for the youngest X-Man, 13-year old Kitty Pryde. In Marvel Team-Up #100 (December 1980), Claremont wrote a short story in which he retroactively established that Storm, then 12 years old, saves a young Black Panther from racist thugs when they both are in Kenya.^[9] This story would later become a base for later writers to establish a deeper relationship between both characters.^[10] It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with Western World. ...

In the early eighties, adventures of Storm written by Claremont included a space opera arc, in which the X-Men fight parasitic beings called the Brood. Storm is infected with a Brood egg and contemplates suicide, but then experiences a last-minute save by the benign whale-like Acanti aliens.^[11] In the following arc, Claremont further established Storm's character strength. He wrote a story in which Storm's fellow X-Man Angel is abducted by a rogue mutant group called the Morlocks. The X-Men are hopelessly outnumbered, and Storm is rendered sick by the Morlock called Plague. Only one solution is left, namely if an X-Man defeats their leader Callisto in a duel to the death. At first, Storm's colleague Nightcrawler wants to battle her, but Storm states she leads the X-Men, and fights Callisto. Despite being violently sick, she defeats Callisto, beats her by impaling her through the heart and almost kills her.^[12] Download high resolution version (670x1024, 326 KB)Cover to Uncanny X-Men #170. ...

Cover to Uncanny X-Men #223, featuring Storm in her punk look. Art by Kerry Gammill.

In Uncanny X-Men #173, October 1983, a notable move was made by changing Storm's outward appearance. Writer Claremont and artist Paul Smith created a new look, abandoning her old costume for black leather top and pants, and changing her former veil of white hair into a punk Mohawk.^[13] In the story, Storm's outlook on life darkens after her struggles with the Brood. These changes alienated her from Shadowcat for a time. Storm was influenced in this by a lover of Wolverine's, Yukio, who became one of her dearest friends. To flesh out Storm’s love life, Claremont wrote an arc in which fellow X-Man Forge develops a mutant power neutralizing gun. The intended target is another fellow X-Man, Rogue, who had been written by Claremont as a character with a criminal backstory. Therefore, she is still believed to be a terrorist, and in addition recently has attacked S.H.I.E.L.D agents. When the shady U.S. government operative Henry Gyrich aims at Rogue, he accidentally hits Storm, taking away her powers. Forge saves Storm from death and takes her back to his home in Dallas, Texas to recover. With his help, she adjusts to life without her powers, and they slowly fall in love. Then, Storm overhears a phone conversation between Forge and Gyrich, and finds out Forge built the weapon that took her powers. She is heartbroken and leaves him.^[14] Storm. ... Storm. ...

However, Claremont continued to write her as a strong character, letting a depowered Storm win against Cyclops for the leadership of the X-Men in Uncanny X-Men #201 (1986).^[15] In the late eighties, Claremont wrote arcs in which Storm temporarily joins the shady Hellfire Club (1987),^[16] is trapped in another dimension with Forge and regains her elemental powers as well as her long hair,^[17] is captured and rendered amnesiac by the evil robot Nanny,^[18] is hunted by the evil telepath Shadow King and framed for murder,^[19] and finally returns to thieving before regaining her memories back.^[20] In the following arc, The X-Tinction Agenda, she is kidnapped to the mutant-exploiting fictional nation of Genosha and is temporarily transformed into a brainwashed mutate, but then regains her memory.^[21] Cyclops (Scott Summers) is a fictional character who exists in the Marvel Comics Universe, a superhero who is the field leader of the X-Men. ...

1990s

In October 1991, the X-Men franchise was relaunched, centering on the new eponymous X-Men (vol. 2) comic. Claremont wrote Storm as the leader as the X-Men's Gold Team; the other team, Blue, is led by her colleague Cyclops, the X-Man she once has succeeded as a leader. When Claremont left the X-Men comic after 16 years since his debut in Uncanny X-Men #94 (1975),^[22] he was replaced by Jim Lee, who continued portraying her as a strong leader. In the sister title Uncanny X-Men, now under Scott Lobdell, Lobdell continued on the romance between Storm and Forge. Lobdell made Forge propose to Storm in 1992. Storm hesitates and is about to say yes, but misinterpreting her reaction, he rescinds his offer before Storm can say yes.^[23] Lobdell waited until November 1993 before he let a deeply hurt Storm and Forge make up with each other.^[24] In 1995, Lobdell continued with an arc which pitted the X-Men against the Morlocks again. As Claremont did with Callisto in 1983, Lobdell let Storm end the battle by mortally wounding her opponent at the heart again. This time, Storm rips out one heart of the two-hearted Morlock girl Marrow, who had fixed a bomb to it.^[25] In February 1996, Storm got her first miniseries, the eponymous Storm. In these four issues, Ellis wrote a story in which Storm is sucked into an alternate dimension and pitted against villain Mikhail Rasputin.^[26] Image File history File links Licensing This image is a single panel from the interior of a single issue of a comic book and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the comic book or the writer(s) and/or artist(s) which produced...

2000s

In X-Treme X-Men, conceived by a newly-reinstated Chris Claremont in July 2001, Storm was written the leader of this team of more street-wise X-Men,^[27] as opposed to its sister titles, Uncanny X-Men and New X-Men, which featured more straight-laced X-Men. In the period until its end in issue #46 (June 2004), Claremont continued to write her as the central character. Storm enjoys a brief flirtation with younger fellow X-Man Slipstream, and is kidnapped by the intergalactic warlord Khan. Khan wants to make her his queen, but Storm defeats him. In the series, she also becomes leader of the fictional X-Treme Sanctions Executive, a special police task force of mutants policing mutants given worldwide authority.^[28] Image File history File links Download high resolution version (527x792, 80 KB) Summary Art by Greg Land http://uncannyxmen. ...

The marriage of Storm and the Black Panther. Front cover for Black Panther #18 (2006), by Frank Cho.

In the following year, Marvel Comics announced that Ororo would marry fellow African super hero Black Panther. Collaborating writer Eric Jerome Dickey explained that it was a move to explicitly target the female and African-American audience.^[31] Expanding on the relationship that Storm had with Black Panther, Dickey stated that Storm and fellow African superhero Black Panther were lovers when they were teenagers.^[32] Though the events of Storm's relationship with Black Panther were never written beforehand, the initial meeting of the characters was retconned without explanation. Initially, in Marvel Team-Up #100 (1980), Storm is seen at age twelve rescuing Black Panther from a white racist called Andreas de Ruyter, ^[9] but in Dickey's miniseries, a young T'Challa saves a 12 year old Storm from de Ruyter and his brother. A Black Panther #24 (2006) flashback is ambiguous when it comes to the physical aspect of their first meeting, while the miniseries has Ororo lose her virginity to T'Challa a few days after they meet.^[33] Collaborating writer Axel Alonso, editor of Black Panther, has stated: "Eric's story, for all intents and purposes (...) is Ororo's origin story."^[10]. Marvel Comics editor-in-chief Joe Quesada was highly supportive of this marriage, stating it was the Marvel Comics equivalent of the marriage of "Lady Diana and Prince Charles", and he expected both characters to emerge strengthened.^[34] Quesada's prediction has begun to be born out in Black Panther story arc that followed Storm and T'Challa's wedding where the newly married couple go on a World Tour, meeting with other known royalties such as Doctor Doom, Namor, as well as the Black Bolt of the Inhumans. With Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman taking time off to work on their marriage in the aftermath of the Civil War, Storm and Black Panther become temporary members of the Fantastic Four alongside the Human Torch and the Thing in May 2007.^[35] Image File history File links Download high-resolution version (399x610, 488 KB)Promotional cover art for Black Panther #18 by Frank Cho. ...

Fictional character biography

Ever since her inception in 1975, Storm's biography has largely stayed the same. The main framework was laid by Chris Claremont, who fleshed out her backstory in the issues Uncanny X-Men #102 (1976)^[6] and Uncanny X-Men #117 (1979)^[36]. Some reinterpretations were made by in 2005 and 2006, where writers Mark Sumerak and Eric Jermone Dickey respectively rewrote part of her early history in the miniseries Ororo: Before the Storm^[30] and Storm (vol. 2).^[32]

According to the established Marvel canon, Ororo Munroe is the child of Kenyan princess N’Dare and African-American photographer David Munroe. While stationed in Egypt during the Suez War, a fighter jet crashes into her parents’ house, killing them. Buried under tons of rubble, Ororo survives, but is orphaned and left with intense claustrophobia.^[6] In Cairo, she is picked up by the benign street lord Achmed el-Gibar and becomes a prolific thief;^[30] among her victims is her future mentor Professor X.^[36] Following an inner urge, she wanders off into the Serengeti as a teenager and meets T’Challa, her future husband. Despite strong mutual feelings, the two part again.^[9][32] In the desert, Ororo develops her weather control powers and is worshipped as a rain goddess, before Professor X recruits her into the X-Men. Ororo receives the code name “Storm” and establishes herself as a strong, serene character.^[1] She eventually supplants her colleague Cyclops as leader of the X-Men,^[3] a role she fills out during most of her time as a superhero. Concerning her personal life, she is for a longer time romantically involved with fellow X-Man Forge, and even considers marrying him before breaking up.^[23] After 98% of the mutants of the world lose their powers, Storm leaves the X-Men to go to Africa, rekindles her relationship with T’Challa – now known as the African superhero Black Panther – marries him and becomes the queen of his kingdom of Wakanda.^[37] The Suez Crisis, also known as the Suez War, Suez Campaign or Kadesh Operation was a war fought on Egyptian territory in 1956. ...

In historical perspective, Storm deserves mention because she became one of the first black superheroes in the big two comic book houses, Marvel Comics and DC Comics as has remained the most successful black superhero ever since. Within these two companies, her 1974 debut was only preceded by a few male black characters. In Marvel Comics, preceding characters were Gabe Jones (debuted in 1963), Black Panther (1966), Spider-Man supporting character Joe Robertson (1967), and Luke Cage (1972). In DC Comics, she was preceded by Teen Titans member Mal Duncan who debuted in 1970 and Green Lantern wielder John Stewart (1971), but she preceded DC's other black heroes, Legion of Super-Heroes member Tyroc (who debuted in 1976), and Black Lightning (who debuted in 1977).

Storm shares characteristic similarities with Lt. Uhura from the popular science fiction series Star Trek, who first appeared nine years before in 1966. Uhura is also a black female, has a similar name and is also written as a character with Kenyan origins. In an 2003 essay, PopMatters columnist Lynne D. Johnson regards them as the two prime examples of black female pop culture figures. In her text, she makes the point that despite best intentions, popular culture often depicts black women in a stereotyped way: either as a talented, but harmless entertainer (Uhura) or as a tough, highly attractive enforcer (Storm).^[38] However, in 2006, Marvel Comics editor-in-chief Joe Quesada called Storm "one of the greatest female characters ever and certainly the greatest African character ever conceived".^[39] Lieutenant Uhura is a character from the fictional Star Trek universe and was played by Nichelle Nichols on Star Trek: The Original Series and the first six Star Trek movies. ...

Powers and abilities

Storm is a mutant with the psionic ability to control the weather. When using her powers, artists have consistently depicted that her eyes illuminate a white color and aura. Storm has the power to control both cosmic storms and ocean currents in addition to her terestrial weather manipulating abilities. Her character displayed these abilities in various issues of Uncanny X-Men. She manipulated the solar wind to destroy a Sentinel and summoned the power of a galactic core to purge her body of a Brood embryo that was implanted in her during a major story-arc in which the X-Men were in outer space.^[2] Weather is a term that encompasses phenomena in the atmosphere of a planet. ...

Storm has the ability to control wind, lightning, summon all manner of precipitation, reduce or raise the temperature of her environment and use winds to fly at high speeds. Her powers also work the other way, enabling her to calm all weather and precipitations. Storm has used her abilities to manipulate ocean currents and tides on several occasions. Storm is also portrayed as highly immune to the effects of all weather, most notably lightning and extreme heat and cold, and she can alter her visual perceptions so as to see the universe as multi-colored energy patterns and the factors behind weather. She can also coalesce the toxic pollutants in the atmosphere and allow them to perciptate out as acid rain or toxic fog. She can also create powerful downbursts. Her abilities are limited by her willpower and strength of her body.^[2] Wind, tacuinum sanitatis casanatensis (XIV century) Given a difference in barometric pressure between two air masses, a wind will arise between the two which tends to flow from the area of high pressure to the area of low pressure until the two air masses are at the same pressure, although...

Since Chris Claremont established her backstory in Uncanny X-Men #102 (December 1976), Storm is consistently portrayed as a skilled thief and a gifted hand-to-hand fighter, trained by Wolverine, and having defeated both Callisto and the Crimson Commando, both highly experienced fighters, in single combat. She is fluent in both Arabic and Swahili. Storm always carries with her a set of lock-picks and her ancestral ruby, which is capable of inter-dimensional transportation with the help of Ororo's lightning.^[2] As part of her ancestry, Storm also has a natural potential for magic. In addition, Storm is emotionally attuned to the weather and her surrounding natural environment. As a consequence, her character is often shown suppressing extreme feelings due to her emotional state having a direct effect on the weather. She has also been shown to sense the dynamics of the natural world, as she has done so on more than one occasion; she once felt a diseased and dying tree on the mansion grounds, the gravitational exertion of the moon on the tides, as well as the incorrect motion of a hurricane in the Northern Hemisphere.^[2] In Black Panther #21 (2006), writer Reginald Hudlin hinted her to be an Omega-level mutant, a fictional description for mutants of the ultimate power level. He let Iron Man discuss this with sentinels at the end of the comic.^[40] Previously, Chris Claremont hinted that Storm possesses this power level by comparing her to the world-devouring Phoenix.^[41] At the time, the term Omega Mutant had not yet been coined.

Alternate universes

Ultimate Storm

Ultimate Storm, in a detail from the cover for Ultimate X-Men #8. Art by Andy Kubert and Richard Isanove.

In the Ultimate Marvel continuity of Ultimate X-Men, created by Mark Millar and Joe Quesada in February 2001, Storm, a.k.a. Ororo Munroe, is a founding member of the X-Men. In his stint until July 2003, Millar created a much more belligerent version of Storm, establishing she was an illegal immigrant from Morocco who steals cars for a living and is located in Harlem before joining the X-Men, referring to her thieving background and her birthplace in the mainstream continuity. In contrast to her original counterpart, she can hardly control her powers at first, the prime example when she passes out after reluctantly summoning a lightning squall in order to destroy fleet of Sentinels.^[42] Her main departure from mainstream Storm is her attraction to fellow X-Man Beast, an ape-like mutant whom she loves for his intelligence. However, Millar wrote this as a troubled romance. In this universe, Beast is written as a character with a deep inferiority complex after a lifetime of ridicule, and cannot believe a beautiful girl like Ororo can truly love him. When later writer Brian Michael Bendis killed Beast off in April 2004,^[43] Bendis let a grief-stricken Storm drastically alter her appearance. Paralleling the style when Claremont and Smith introduced the punk look for the original Storm, Ultimate Storm now sliced off her thigh length locks, to make for an edgy, punk-esque shorter style and replacing her conservative clothing in favour of revealing leather mini-skirts and dresses, teamed with black heels, trench coats and studded belts.^[44] Subsequent writer Brian K. Vaughan wrote Storm to become more predisposed to act as the team's conscience, and letting her start a romance with Wolverine. In the Ultimate X-Men: Shock and Awe arc (2005), he inserted new elements into her backstory by establishing Yuriko "Yuri" Oyama as Storm's archenemy. In this version, Yuriko and Ororo are fellow thiefs, but eventually, Yuriko grows envious of her colleague. Their friendship ends in a motorcycle chase which Ororo halts with a sudden rainstorm. Yuri loses control, has a seemingly fatal collision with a truck and is rebuilt into a cyborg by amoral Dr. Cornelius of the mutant superweapon project Weapon X.^[45] As of 2007, UXM writer Robert Kirkman has continued establishing a friendship between Storm and Wolverine in Ultimate X-Men: Date Night (2006).
