Having been reading Marvel Comics since I was a wee lad, I have to admit that I’m enjoying the small revival of sorts going on with various long time X-Men characters getting their own series, even if they only go for a few issues. The latest to make the leap is Storm, which brings the character to her own work with a female lead series by writer Greg Pak and artist Victor Ibanez. The series is set to kick off on July 23rd, 2014 and they’ve got a look at a few of the pages from it as well as the cover and variants, which of course includes a great little Skottie Young piece.
Plot concept: From street urchin in Cairo to the Queen of Wakanda to Headmistress of the Jean Grey School and everything in between – she is a hero with no equal. Her desire to make the world a better place is unmatched, even though that world that hates and fears her. On her mission to spread goodwill and embody Charles Xavier’s dream in her own way, she will stand alongside new faces and familiar friends – and come face to face with more than her share of enemies.
