Following the X-Men’s Krakoan age, Storm takes her rightful place as Earth’s Mightiest Mutant! In August, she joins the Avengers, and then in October, she embarks on a journey as a solo super hero in a new ongoing STORM series from writer Murewa Ayodele and artist Lucas Werneck. Today, fans can check out a trio of variant covers for the debut issue.

Among the new covers is a piece by series artist Werneck showcasing Storm’s new costume as well as a gorgeous pinup piece from Jeehyung Lee that will also be available as a virgin variant cover. Plus, like many of Marvel’s major launches, STORM #1 will shine on stands with an electrifying Gold Foil Variant cover by Jerome Opeña.

STORM will mark an exciting new era for the iconic X-Man that sees her use her Omega-Level mutant gifts as one of Earth’s prime protectors. Making decisions on a global stage, her actions will impact the entire Marvel Universe—catching the attention (and admiration) of its omnipotent cosmic forces as well as supervillains that match her standing such as Doctor Doom!

Ororo Munroe has lived many lives. She’s been a thief, a goddess, an X-Man, a queen, and now…an Avenger! She is the most prominent, most respected and most powerful mutant on the world stage—and in that role, she intends to be a force for positive change. First up: a major meltdown at a nuclear facility in Oklahoma City draws Storm from her Sanctuary in Atlanta—and into a moral conflict that will test her iron resolve!
