The bones of an interesting Storm story are here, but overall, the series feels muddled and overburdened with subplots, distracting from the character it intended to spotlight. Read Full Review
Storm #5 brings the period piece to a close as Rogue and Storm put Blowback through a trial to get the truth and send him packing. Despite the relatively clean ending, most of the development surrounding Blowback never gets the attention needed to fully explain the character, so the main villain at the heart of the main mystery winds up being a convenient contrivance, leading to an unsatisfying ending.

I'm not nearly as harsh a critic on this series as most. I thought it was pleasantly fine. I just think it pretty uncool that Marvel is willing to pay writers and artists and spend other publication costs on * flashback * series. Hello, what about a current Storm mini in continuity? Or Gambit? Or Jean Grey?
And, if you're going to do a flashback, answer a dangler. Example: How the hell Jean and Psylocke switched powers in the Revolution era.
This could've been so much better.
