Every day in April we will reveal the greatest stories ever told starring a particular character or written/drawn by a particular creator (and throughout the month, you'll get daily chances to vote for NEXT week's lists). These lists are voted on by YOU, the reader!

Here is the list of characters/creators featured so far (along with the rules on how to vote).

Today's list is the Greatest Storm Stories Ever Told!

Enjoy!

10. "Cry, Vengeance!" Marvel Team-Up #100



This back-up story in Marvel Team-Up #100 by Chris Claremont, John Byrne and Bob McLeod introduced the idea that Black Panther and Storm knew each other when they were younger and that they had a bit of an unrequited romance. This later proved important when Storm and the Black Panther were married for a few years.

9. "Rogue Storm" Uncanny X-Men #145-147



In this storyline by Chris Claremont, Dave Cockrum and Joe Rubinstein, Doctor Doom has captured Arcade and Arcade's assistant has kidnapped the X-Men's loved ones to force them to rescue Arcade. While a team of reserve X-Men try to free the kidnapped people, the rest of the team tries to deal with Doctor Doom. This storyline featured a fascinating flirtation between Doctor Doom and Storm. It also features Storm freaking the heck out after Doom captures her by encasing her in metal. Her severe claustrophobia leads to her going nuts when she is released. Luckily, her friends calm her down. Doom is just more turned on by it all.

8. "Worlds Apart" X-Men: Worlds Apart #1-4



In this mini-series, written by Christopher Yost and drawn by Diogenes Neves and Edgar Tadeo, Storm is confronted with the difficulty of the dual role she leads as a key member of the X-Men but also the Queen of Wakanda when her old enemy the Shadow King uses that uncertainty to turn the people of Wakanda against her, first subtly and then with a possessed Black Panther, directly.

7. "Blood Feud!" Uncanny X-Men #159/X-Men Annual #6



Storm just attracts all the bad boys. First Doom and now Dracula (there was also Akron)! In this beautifully drawn two-parter by Bill Sienkiewicz and Bob Wiacek, Storm is bitten by Count Dracula. The X-Men must then fight to save their friend. Chris Claremont did a fine job following in the gigantic footsteps of Marv Wolfman on the Dracula character.

6. "Crucible" Uncanny X-Men #215-216



The powerless Storm is put to a great test when she takes on three superpowered vigilantes who are hunting her and another woman. Chris Claremont wrote it and Alan Davis and Jackson Guice drew it (one part each).

The top five is on the next page!

5. "To Have and Have Not" Uncanny X-Men #172-173



This storyline is perhaps best known for the Rogue and Wolverine storyline (they get the covers and this is where Rogue first proves herself as an X-Man and this is where Wolverine's wedding is called off) but a poisoned Storm becoming friends with the thief Yukio and deciding to change her appearance dramatically still stands out as another MAJOR change from this two-parter by Chris Claremont, Paul Smith and Bob Wiacek.

4. "Duel" Uncanny X-Men #201



The powerless Storm and Cyclops fight each other in the Danger Room for the right to lead the X-Men. Guess who wins (note that this is not the Greatest CYCLOPS Stories Ever Told). Chris Claremont wrote it and Rick Leonardi and Whilce Portacio drew it.

3. "Lifedeath II" Uncanny X-Men #198



In this sequel to the original Lifedeath, Storm travels to Africa to deal some more with her power loss. She encounters a young pregnant woman and Storm valiantly helps save the woman and deliver the baby (and then revive the baby when it is seemingly stillborn). The happiness of the moment is quickly overshadowed by the fact that the village elder now has to kill himself in a tradition where an elder sacrifices themself every time a new baby is born to the village. Storm spends time with him leading up to his death, trying to make heads or tails of his sacrifice. It clearly deeply affects her. Chris Claremont and Barry Windsor-Smith did the issue.

2. "Dancin' in the Dark" Uncanny X-Men #169-170



The Morlocks, a group of mutants who live in the sewers because they are too ugly to pass as humans, kidnap Warren Worthington, the X-Men known as Angel. The X-Men come to free him and it comes down to Storm challenging the leader of the Morlocks, Callisto, to a knife fight. It is all extremely bad ass. Chris Claremont wrote it and Paul Smith and Bob Wiacek drew it.

1. "Lifedeath" Uncanny X-Men #186



An issue after losing her powers to Forge's "make mutant powers go away" gun, Storm has to come to grips with what is pretty much the worst day of her adult life. Forge (who she doesn't know actually invented the gun) takes Storm in and the two spend some deep, personal time together at his apartment getting to know each other as she deals with her great loss. When it seems like the two are ready to take things to another level, Storm learns of Forge's involvement in her power loss. It would be almost forty issues before they somewhat reconcile. This story was written by Chris Claremont and drawn by Barry Windsor-Smith and Terry Austin. It is hard to properly realize how out of nowhere having a special Barry Windsor-Smith drawn issue of X-Men was at the time, but trust me, it was a big deal.

That's the list! Agree? Disagree? Let me know!
