Storm #6

Storm Issue 6 is about escalation and elevation. Its a spectacle that lets loose, only tapping into a fraction of Storms new power to settle a score, and it leaves a whole team and the readers stunned. Read Full Review

Ayodele continues to impress with Storm, making each comic even more powerful than the last. Read Full Review

This issue takes a slight deviation from the actual Storm story arc in service of a crossover that continues in X-Men #13. Suffice to say, I won't be covering the crossover, as I tend to buy most of my comics and can only manage so many per week. While it's a solid enough story, I can't help but feel it sidesteps the main focus, which is Storm. I'm much more invested in her ongoing arc and hope normal service resumes in issue #7.

Storm #6 pulls off its balancing act pretty well: not only does it push its main story forward, but it closes out the first act of "X-Manhunt" on an intriguing note. Not only am I interested to see where the rest of "X-Manhunt" goes, but I want to see Storm's new armor in action especially since Ayodele has teased Ororo will be fighting other Thunder Gods next issue.

Nearly flawlessly executed crossover title that still managed to push the main story with eternity and the expanding supporting cast further along. I can't wait to see the Omega Maggott in the next issue! And the prelude to the Thunder War!!!

I found this issue to be a frustrating read. Firstly, it suffers from the same decompressed storytelling as all the other issues before. Secondly, so much in the story doesn't make sense. Why does Storm explain to Xavier that she has to play by the book now, but then decides to fight her former teammates for him, who basically want the same thing? Then there's the uncalled-for mutilation of Maggott - completely inappropriate, considering that Cyclops wasn't even as seriously hurt as it first seemed the case. Murdering and mutilating seems en vogue in the mutant titles in recent years, and I really hate it. On the positive side, this is the first time I have seen Cyclops's team well drawn and not looking like cartoon characters. I stil l don't like most of them, but at least they look good here. Vecchio's artwort has its moments, but it doesn't save this mess of a story. more
