By the Goddess! Ororo Munroe Storm Appreciation 2024

[JB]

I feel like Resurrection of Magneto #3 is arguably the greatest single X-Men issue of all time.

It's absolutely fantastic. If no one else has written up a review thread by end of day I'll throw a quick one together but it's impossible to describe how wonderful an issue it was.

The more I think about it, this series was the perfect for Al to wrap up his time in the X-Office. Getting to do amazing character work and making insane lore connections uninterrupted by the wider happenings in the FoX.

My only hope is that those writing Storm and Magneto take the time to read these issues.

I can't believe he connected the recent Magneto mini to this as well, Ewing is carrying X-Continuity on his back

You really do a lot...and I wanna say thank you so much.

It's my pleasure, truly. These books mean a lot to me and I love the discussions we have about them. I love Storm and Magneto so this series in particular has been beyond a treat. It's tough to summarize the issue cause it's so thick with multiple layers. This is a masterclass Ewing is providing the industry.

Unpopular opinion but...this (the bolded) is why I'm okies with her moving on to something different, even if it is scaled back (just how much is left to be seen).

Because I really don't trust anyone else (and I don't care who they bring in to write her solo, they're NOT Lord Ewing) to really follow through on her current status quo in a significant and masterclass way. If this is her Arakko Swan Song then it will end on the highest of notes. Whatever comes after will rise or fall on the merit of that new writer and will not tarnish what came before.

by the Goddess, it just keeps getting better and better doesn't it, every character he writes is written with absolute finesse and passion, such a philosophical read, of both Ororo and Erik bearing themselves free of facades by the hand of the abstracts that taunt, its funny cause both are doing shadow work in this shadowy realm, setting forth past mistakes, to be at peace with buried feelings/traumas still harbored,
letting go of reservations continuing to stand. this is a deep spiritual therapy session for both of them, as they fight their abstract foes, they also fight with themselves and the perspective of their being. when you think Ewing has peeled the entire onion he turns around to peel back 7 more. this was an absolute Banger written beautifully, and it's only the third issue, that man has a mind of gold

Like I said everything Storm does in the astral plane... Can be done in reality. So everything Storm is doing is power scaling to the physical reality too.

I have the usual concern here that we'll see Storm do these amazing feats only to have her powers rolled back to more mundane levels. Even the great Ewing himself did it to Monica Rambeau. One minute she's powerful enough to battle Beyonder-like beings and solo Nyx, a goddess who killed just about all of the Olympian gods including Zeus by herself, and the next minute Monica gets reduced to her pre-Blue Marvel power-up levels...only to later still be featured in a series not written by Al Ewing (by Eve Ewing, no relation) where Monica is once again one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse. The rollercoaster is not fun. I hope they keep Ororo at this level.

Storm is trending on twitter!

[LordAllMIghty]

First of all, I'm gonna need Ewing to stop playing and admit he's writing a Storm mini with Magneto guest starring. Lol

Just finished dinner and watching XM97.
It was so good. So freaking good.
As a Storm fan I was very happy.
And I started gasping and screaming moments before it happened.
Damn! It Burns so good.
The Scene with her in her bedroom was so powerful and well done.
Damn! It burns so good.

I'm still in awe at how brilliantly and flawlessly Alison Sealy-Smith captures Ororo's spirit.

That woman deserves an Emmy.

Storm was the highlight of the first two episodes of X-men 97. Just awesome.
