May 23, 2021Arguably, since the initial Phoenix stories, death and rebirth work hand in hand within the X-Universe. When one dies, they are also reborn. This theme is in full swing with the current Krakoa era of the X-Men where death is more so a game for several of the mutants. In Uncanny X-Men #186, we see the death of Storm BUT witness the rebirth of Ororo. Much like Wonder Woman, if you take away her powers, she is still a warrior. Ororo is still a warrior. This issue served as a great way to understand Ororo not only as a woman but as a mutant. If you can come across this issue pick it up. It is a prime example of why Ororo Munroe is one of the best comic book characters of all time. Read Full Review
