KILL THE GODDESS, SAVE THE WORLD! X YEARS LATER, with Earth's gods gone, only ORORO MUNROE, the mutant god of storms remains. She is a goddess driven mad by dark magic and grief. Now, as STORM threatens to freeze the world into a new Ice Age, Rogue leads a team of killers and legends - Gateway, Iceman, Fantomex, Spiral and Warpath. The sole mission of this Uncanny X-Force: kill Storm.
I will read anything Murewa Ayodele writes, especially if it includes Ororo Munroe. In Rogue Storm #1, there's a huge mixture of big emotions that only Ayodele could write with grace and beauty. Read Full Review
Rogue Storm #1 goes big and bold in its debut issue, showcasing what happens when godhood gets out of your control. The Age of Revelation has brought forth some interesting ideas, but this is definitely one of the standouts next to Amazing X-Men. Read Full Review
Rogue Storm #1 has a solid enough hook to keep the pages turning, but the revelation of one of its main characters and the notable absence of the other can make for a puzzling experience. Though there is enough here to keep one digging through the surface just a bit. Read Full Review
Extremely interesting premise, great execution, the writing and art are both very good, love the supporting cast. The only thing I'm not quite sold on yet is the idea of two separate Rogues. We'll see how that plays out, but otherwise I like everything a lot.
Cover isn't my favorite, but there is actually a lot to love here. It's quite different from Storm (2024), which is what makes it fun. The rest of the event feels like a bit of a rehash. This has plenty of unique moments, though!
I wanted to skip Rogue Storm (not a fan of alternate realities), especially after seeing that dreadful Humberto Ramos cover, but the interior art looked interesting. Plus, Ayodele is one of those writer who always come up with something different and intriguing.
Anyway, Roland Boschi's art, on closer inspection, is a mixed bag. I like his storytelling, anatomy and page layouts, but the linework itself is rough and sketchy. There are some excellent pages though, like the ones where Storm is calmly riding her hippopotamus or the one where she is captured. The rest of the book is good enough to convey the story, which is interesting indeed - however, it’s mostly just setup.
Rogue Storm is definitely one of the better b more
