    Default Could Ororo Munroe anchor her own franchise?

    Not as part of the X-Men.

    Not as part of Black Panther.

    As her own franchise where she is the undisputed alpha character with her unique supporting cast, rogues gallery, and settings.

    Are the ingredients already there, just needing to be put together?

    Or are we still so much farther from even that stage?

    Who could be her love interests? Her consistent support network? Who could be her arch-nemesis (the Joker to her Batman)?

    Should she shift the emphasis away from the mutant side and focus more on the goddess side? Marvel is lacking in goddesses at the moment.

    Or she more likely doomed to be where she current is?

    What needs to be done to make her an alpha character with her own franchise?

    Yes there is freaking Aero and Swordmaster comic. And multiple times Punisher and Ghost Rider have fallen under the cancel mark. Storm(and Cyclops) has large enough fan base to sustain if Marvel is willing to do the R&D figure out what story style works for a sustain period.

    Yes she can. Storm can easily have a rogues gallery inspired by African folklore in addition to the enemies she already has such as adversary and Shadow King. All it requires is creative team willing to put in work.

    Yup. Not to mention. Her father was a reporter, who knows what secret files he may have laying around that could change everything.

    Then you have her royal lineage, storm is air apparent to Kenyan throne and the reason her family didn't look for her is because her uncle threatened her.

    Then you have her karoka responsibilities.

    Her goddess responsibilities and origin.

    Her affinity for magic.

    Any half decent writer should be able to do a compelling storm franchise.

    Her connections to the FF it goes in and on.

    That'd be interesting but I kinda have a hard time thinking about it, mainly due to X-Men always being more team oriented than solo.

    Give me more details, what could be the overall setup?

    For the record, before Betsy returned to her original body and Kwannon took the identity, I kinda liked the idea of a Psylocke solo series with her as a ninja, so I get where it's coming from.

    Considering Marvel has made several attempts already that have all fallen flat, I'm going to say "No."

    According to her Storm solo that was cancelled I don't think she can.
