Complete Guide To Every X-Men Character Who Returned After Death

23. Storm

How Did She Die?

Flying after villains Nanny and Orphan-Maker, a concussed Havok fires an energy blast into the sky which blows up the aircraft. Storm's body is found amongst the rubble, in a rather graphic and sad panel.

How Did She Come Back?

So, er, apparently Nanny was prepared for Storm's aerial intrusion and had a Life Model Decoy of the X-Man ready to take her place in the event of an explosion (that no one could have predicted...). Nanny obviously also survived the plane crash, and whisked Storm away to her hideout where she de-aged her into a pre-teen girl.

Comics are weird.
