Storm Debuts Stunning New Costume to Mark Her Status as “Earth’s Mightiest Mutant”

Warning: Spoilers for Storm #2!There’s nothing Marvel’s resident Weather Goddess can’t do. Storm has led the X-Men, sat on the throne of Wakanda, acted as regent of Arakko, and evolved into one of Earth’s fiercest protectors. As she gears up to face new trials and secure her place in a post-Krakoa world, she debuts a fresh look to go along with it, and the “Brutal Storm Costume” is one of her best yet.

Marvel unveiled stunning images from the upcoming Storm #2 by Murewa Ayodele and Lucas Werneck featuring Storm’s eye-catching “Brutal Storm Costume,” dubbed so by writer Ayodele. The full-body suit is a regal white with gold trim, and the sleek costume change comes on the heals of Ororo working to establish herself as a solo hero after years of leading and working alongside the X-Men and other teams.

While she’s still taken up a position with the Avengers, it’s a new dawn for the weather-controlling mutant. Though Storm is no stranger to switching up her look, the Brutal Storm Costume gives her the powerful air only Ororo Munroe can pull off.

Storm has a long string of accomplishments behind her, and she’s long since proven herself as one of the most capable, powerful heroes to grace the Earth. She claims Omega mutant status thanks to her extraordinary weather-controlling abilities, and she’s been entrusted with teams, countries, and lives for years. Her new series proves that nothing slows her down. Even as she battles the radiation she endured in Storm #1, she continues to travel the world, protecting its oceans, caring for its creatures, and pouring her many gifts into being a true steward of the planet.

Ororo is entering a new chapter in her life, and the suit swap is yet another way to show it. She established a base with her beautiful Storm Sanctuary, announced her dip into politics, and allied herself with the Avengers. Her sheer power already makes her one of Earth’s strongest heroes, but her commitment to bettering the planet elevates her to the mightiest mutant. Marvel has launched a new era for mutantkind, and it’s certainly a new era for Storm.
