Murewa Ayodele: Who is Storm Hooking Up With? - Uncanny X-Men 313

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future. This week we have the extremely talented Murewa Ayodele on the show to talk about everything current and upcoming in the STORM solo series he's writing! We get into the winding path of his becoming a comic writer, tears and all, and what motivated him to write Storm as powerfully as she is right now (spoiler: it's anger). Murewa was born in the midst of the Phalanx introduction (Uncanny X-Men 313) so we also discuss: how long superheroes can hold their breath underwater Bishop is the Hulk now the best way to take out the Phalanx is with a standard issue pole everyone is joining the Phalanx these days (looking at you, Douglock) you can be mad at Lodro about his Scottish accent or his lack of Star Trek knowledge, but not both All this plus how the core of the Storm series is about her autonomy. What does any of this mean for Murewa's future? Tune in to find out (nailed the horoscope this time, friends!) Murewa Ayodele is a recipient of the (Lagos Comic Con 2023) FIST AWARD for WRITER OF THE DECADE and is the writer of the Nommo-nominated comic book series, NEW MEN, the critically acclaimed webcomic series, MY GRANDFATHER WAS A GOD, the popular AKOGUN: BRUTALIZER OF GODS graphic novel, and several Marvel comics like MOON KNIGHT: BLACK WHITE & BLOOD, AVENGERS UNLIMITED INFINITY COMIC, I AM IRON MAN, X-MANHUNT: OMEGA, and, of course, STORM.
