StormWatch Vol 1 # 37 (July 1996)
By: Warren Ellis, Tom Raney, Randy Elliot
ImageThis issue marks the first appearance of Jenny Sparks, Jack Hawksmoor, and Rose Tattoo.
An exciting new era of StormWatch begins as the creative team of Warren Ellis, Tom Raney and Randy Elliott takes over where Fire From Heaven left off! In this special giant-sized issue, Weatherman One evaluates the team and doesn’t like what he sees – so he changes everything! New members (such as the mysterious and deadly Rose Tattoo)
are introduced, and some old members say their last goodbyes – and all
the while, a German superhuman is cutting a murderous path through
Europe…
After Flashpoint's
betrayal of the team, Henry Bendix decides to take a more active role
in guiding world events. He regroups the superhumans of Stormwatch into
three teams: Stormwatch Prime, Stormwatch Red, and Stormwatch Black,
each intended to serve a different role in maintaining global order.
Prime deals with superhuman threats; Red carries out acts of sanction
against criminals; Black operates as a covert, secretive investigation
team.
Bendix also changes the roster of Stormwatch, introducing three new members: Jenny Sparks, a woman who can control electricity and has been alive since the year 1900 without aging; Jack Hawksmoor,
a man who was the subject of numerous alien experiments in his
childhood and now possesses many superhuman abilities which only
function in an urban environment; and Rose Tattoo, a mysterious woman who is a superhumanly effective markswoman. Several members, including Union and Undertow, are dropped from the team. Others, such as Battalion and Synergy,
are moved to administrative positions in Stormwatch. The UN Special
Security Council begins to distance itself from Stormwatch and takes a
distinctly antagonistic posture towards it.
Afterwards, two of the new teams (Prime, composed of Winter, Fuji, and Hellstrike; and Red, consisting of Flint, Farenheit, and Rose Tattoo) are sent to Germany to deal with a rogue superhuman, who calls himself 'Father'.
