There are actually a lot of great Storm covers - many on very similar themes (Storm in the midst of lightning/very dramatic weather/heavy rain etc.). So what makes this image stand out? Very simply it's down to Chris Bachalo's very idiosyncratic style. Nobody does characters quite like Bachalo. There's a cartoon sensibility, though not overly exaggerated in the style of, for example, Skottie Young. His women, in particular, often seem quite weirdly skinny and, perhaps refreshingly, they never seem as top heavy as often rendered by most comic book artists. Doesn't Ororo look stunning here though? The zips and hooks on her costume and especially the dreadlocks really help her stand out in this cracking portrait.
I have ranked this cover no 212 as part of a long term project I am producing on my own blog 'marvel-ous' on blogspot.com re: my favourite marvel comic book covers. Please visit http://dmstarz.blogspot.com and check out the other covers that have made my top 250.
