Marvel teased “Earth’s Mightiest Kiss” and a romance between the new Captain America (Sam Wilson) and Thor (Jane Foster) in early 2016.

This All-New, All-Different Avengers hookup is the latest surprising superhero romance. Wilson has emerged from sidekick/supporting hero to Marvel leading man. Foster’s transformation from Thor’s girlfriend to well…THOR!…is even more dramatic and fans love it but will they embrace this new power couple? How will Cap and Jane balance saving the planet with a complicated relationship? Will they have a happy ending?

Here are surprising super power couples that prove super powers don’t exactly leading to a storybook ending: Continue reading SURPRISE SUPERHERO ROMANCES

Logan and Storm shared a passionate kiss on the cover of Wolverine and the X-Men #24,  but will she get to say goodbye before he dies?

 

Logan has been a friend, teammate, mentor and recently lover of Ororo. While that famous kiss wasn’t the first – fans are wondering if the two X-Men will get to share a moment before he leaves.

 

Death of Wolverine #4 is when the once immortal mutant will die. Storm #4 will be the aftermath of that historic issue. Continue reading How STORM Mourns WOLVERINE

X-MEN Wolverine and Storm Kiss

Will they or won’t they? Wolverine and Storm share a passionate kiss on the cover of this week’s Wolverine and the X-Men #24. The story by Jason Aaron is billed as “date night” but could Logan and Ororo really become the new mutant super couple?

Storm is still heartbroken over her marriage to the Black Panther being “annulled” by her own husband – Wakandan law gives him the right plus he’s the King.

This isn’t the first time Logan and Ororo shared a kiss. Way back in Uncanny X-Men Annual #11 by Chris Claremont and Alan Davis the mutants faced off against Horde. This was 1987 during when Ororo still had her mohawk. The kiss was during a clash with a villain who tempted each X-Man with a vision of life they secretly wanted.

Wolverine has always has an admiration and respect for Ororo but love? Logan’s feelings for the late Jean have resurfaced since the teen Jean Grey arrived from the past in All-New X-Men.

In this series Jason Aaron has developed the relationship between Kitty Pryde and Iceman. I approve (and that’s coming from a longtime Kitty/Colossus fanatic.) (See Date Night in Wolverine and the X-Men. )

As we’ve seen from previews Storm will be sporting her Mohawk again in the new Uncanny X-Force and X-Men titles. This “kiss” issue may be a big tease or the impetus for Ororo to change her look and attitude again. Stay tuned X-fans.
