Maystorm
Maystorm (Mei Igarashi) is a mutant superhero that appears in the comic books published by Marvel Comics. She appears in the Ultimate Universe (Earth-6160) line of books, and is an original character that made her debut outside the mainline continuity. The character first appeared in ''Ultimate X-Men'' #2 (June 2024), and was created by the Japanese writer and artist Peach Momoko. Devlopment Maystorm was originally conceived for the New Champions variant cover program, a series of covers celebrating Spider-Boy by imagining hypothetical non-canon "forgotten" sidekicks for other Marvel characters with her being depicted as the forgotten sidekick of Storm. In Maystorm's case, she debuted in the New Champions variant cover for X-Men (Vol. 6) #27 and was conceptualized by artist Peach Momoko. However, Momoko really wanted to tell her story and decided to include her in the 2024 comic book, ''Ultimate X-Men'' from the Ultimate Universe line, set on Earth-6160. Fictional ch ...

Publication history ''Ultimate X-Men'' by Peach Momoko with Zack Davisson is the third comic released in the Ultimate Universe line, alongside ''Ultimate Spider-Man'' and ''Ultimate Black Panther''.

Ultimate Universe
The Ultimate Universe is an imprint of comic books published by Marvel Comics beginning in 2023; the imprint is overseen by writer Jonathan Hickman. It reimagines several classic Marvel characters in a new fictional continuity, after Hickman and artist Bryan Hitch's '' Ultimate Invasion'' limited series depicted The Maker (the Reed Richards of Earth-1610) shaping a new world in his image, resulting in Earth-6160, a new Earth preceded by alternate history. While it shares its name with the earlier Ultimate Marvel imprint that ran from 2000 to 2015, it is not a direct reboot. While the original Ultimate Marvel started by updating the origins of Marvel Universe characters in a then-modern but recognizable Earth-1610, the Ultimate Universe (Earth-6160) features entirely new interpretations of Marvel characters set in a radically-altered sociopolitical status quo caused by the Maker. Publication history The original Ultimate Marvel imprint ceased to be published in 2015, and was ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Fictional Characters With Weather Abilities
Fiction is any creative work, chiefly any narrative work, portraying individuals, events, or places that are imaginary or in ways that are imaginary. Fictional portrayals are thus inconsistent with fact, history, or plausibility. In a traditional narrow sense, fiction refers to written narratives in prose often specifically novels, novellas, and short stories. More broadly, however, fiction encompasses imaginary narratives expressed in any medium, including not just writings but also live theatrical performances, films, television programs, radio dramas, comics, role-playing games, and video games. Definition and theory Typically, the fictionality of a work is publicly expressed, so the audience expects a work of fiction to deviate to a greater or lesser degree from the real world, rather than presenting for instance only factually accurate portrayals or characters who are actual people. Because fiction is generally understood as not adhering to the real world, the t ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
