Stormwatch is a super group created by the United Nations and existing in the Wildstorm Universe. It was originally created by Jim Lee. Edit
Following Despot going insane Henry Bendix and the U.N decided to form a super human crisis unit. The U.N spent three years finding members and building their base the Skywatch. The original members were Jackson King, Flashpoint and Nautika. The members were trained by the super hero Backlash. Benidx took on the leader role of Weatherman and soon the hero Sunburst joined. Sadly on an early mission all the members aside from King were (thought) to have been killed when the villain Deathtrap and his Mercs hit the team in a sneak attack. The heroes Diva, Winter, Fuji and Hellstrike would become the new members as Stormwatch One. He then recruited Fahrenheit, Ion, Lancer, Cannon and Strafe as Stormwatch two. However of the course of Stormwatch's existence the roster has changed due to various reasons (death, imprisonment etc).
Bendix would often switch leadership of the team between King and Synergy. However this changed after the Fire From Heaven event. It prompted Henry to redesign the team and after firing many of the members including Stormwatch One and Two he reformed the remaining heroes into three three manned units Stormwatch Prime (Fuji, Winter, Hellstrike), Red (Flint, Rose Tattoo, Fahrenheit), and Black (Jenny Sparks, Swift ,Jack Hawksmoor). He even conditioned a team only he was aware of. The members were Apollo, Midnighter, Amaze, Crow Jane, Impetus, Lamplight, Stalker, however the majority of the team died on the first assignment save Apollo and Midnighter. This would prove to be one of the many actions which would reveal his growing insanity. He even ordered Stormwatch Red to kill 233 Gamorrans as pay back for the deaths of 233 people caused by Kaizen Gamorra.
After the High and his group first appeared it became apparent Henry had now become a villain. He ordered Rose Tattoo to kill two members herself and sent an acid bomb payload to kill al the members in their base leaving only the High who was killed after flying into the Storm Door. Jenny Sparks forced him out the group and Jackson King was promoted to Weatherman. Red and Prime were merged into one unit and Black remained operating in secret.
A few months later Skywatch became infected by an alien race called Xenomorphs. They began to kill members of the team and Winter was forced to fly the Skywatch into the son to insure their destruction. Only Stormwatch Black King, Syngery and Flint made it out alive.
Stormwatch was disbanded due to the destruction of their base, but the surviving members would go on to forming two new teams the Authority and the Monarchy. A new Stormwatch team was soon formed called Team Achillies and Later Jackson King would build Stormwatch PHD( Post Human Devision) with the resurrected members of Stormwatch that perished in the Alien attack. They work mainly out of the U.S and are sadly under funded and have to make due.
