X-Men ’97 fans are loving Storm’s new look after Episode 6. After last week’s downer ending, things went back to Ororo Munroe’s storyline. (And a peek at what Charles Xavier has been up to all this time out in the Shi’ar Empire…) Forge and Storm have been trying to find a way to restore her mutant powers. However, the former X-Men hero has to rise above her own self-doubt to reclaim her power from a vampyric demon. Of course, this triumph comes with a comic-accurate version of her black costume. While a lot of 90s babies will miss the white and the shoulder pads, this is how most modern incarnations of Storm look now. So, there’s another step in-line with the present for X-Men ’97.
