Storm is the codename of Ororo Munroe, a mutant with the ability to control weather. The character was introduced as part of the "new" X-Men in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (May 1975), in a story written by Len Wein and illustrated by Dave Cockrum. Since her introduction, Storm has remained one of the mainstays of the various X-Men comic book series and has been depicted in movies and animated television shows.
Storm has always been depicted as a very spiritual person, and has always been depicted as a character who worships a deity she refers to as "Goddess." This is most frequently evident through her exclamations of "Goddess!" when she is startled.
Many comic book stories have dealt more in depth with Storm's spiritual, religious and mystical life. An important part of her origin story was the fact that when Professor Charles Xavier invited Storm to join his new X-Men team, Storm herself was being worshipped as a goddess by a tribe in Africa.
Goddess worship has been a part of human religion throughout recorded history. Belief in the feminine divine or in a goddess is a part of many contemporary religions, including such seemingly disparate groups as Amida Buddhism and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism). Storm, however, has never been depicted as belonging to any organized religion. Storm's form of goddess worship may have been strongly influenced by the African primal-indigenous religions that she grew up among, but overall it appears to be a personally practiced religion without formal organizational or congregational aspects.
Infinity Crusade
Storm was one of 33 characters who were identified as the most religious superheroes in the Marvel Universe in Infinity Crusade (June 1993). In this issue, a powerful being who identified herself as "the Goddess" kidnapped the superheroes she had identified as being the most religious active superheroes at the time. The Goddess was a manifestation of the "benevolent" side of Adam Warlock, and she planned to use these heroes in her crusade to rid the galaxy of evil and usher in a new golden age of peace. After these 33 characters had been kidnapped by the Goddess, the remaining superheroes gathered to try to figure out what was going on.
