It's Storm time. Marvel EVP and X-Men Group Editor Tom Brevoort appeared on the Homo Superior Podcast last week, and talked about the upcoming X-Men: From The Ashes line. Including solo books that include Storm, something that had been much gossiped about of late. And also why Storm isn't in any of the team X-Men books.
"Obviously, Storm is a solo character title, and we'll position that character in what I hope is a good and effective place within the cosmology°. mutantkind and the X-Men in this new world.
