About this blog

This page is mainly for the character Ororo Munroe/Storm and Rolo/Stormverine ship.

This blog is for people who:

1. Actually love Ororo Munroe/Storm

2. Love Rolo/Stormverine or if they don’t like it can be mature about it. 

3. Are okay with seeing Stormverine/Rolo on their timeline.

4. Can multiship in peace without being mean about it. 

______________________________________________________________

This page is not for people who:

1. Are hardcore Stormpanther/Tchoro shippers.

2. Toxic and misogynistic from the mentioned fandom. 

3. Ororo Munroe/Storm haters. 

4. Minors! this blog can contain NSFW stuff, so 18+ only

______________________________________________________________

If you crosspost my post to any other social media under the guise of criticism, I will know. I will not be silenced by bullies that don't have a good argument.

Again if Stormverine triggers you, you can just block me and move on. You can even mute the Stormverine tags like an adult.

If I tag my post as an anti tag, it's because I'm being respectful to not crosstag into any fandom that is shipping their main couple. If you see it and can't move past it, then it's your own issue!

I realize I’ve not talked about them much, but I’ve always also loved Logurt (Wolverine/Nightcrawler). I am a diehard rolo (Storm/Wolverine) shipper, but I feel like most of us also love logurt and rologurt (Storm/Wolverine/Nightcrawler). So much so that I kind of mentally take it for granted. X-Men is for lovers and intellectuals, really 😆

The Claws & Thunder Sales Watch: April 2026

Welcome back to another edition of The Claws & Thunder Sales Watch, where we once again put on our reading glasses and pretend we totally understand market analytics while emotionally spiraling over comic book rankings.

As always, we’re using the same character-first methodology for this feature:

Only books that: • have Wolverine or Storm in the title, or • clearly feature Logan or Ororo as lead characters

And once again, we’re using the public ICv2 / ComicHub Top 50 monthly rankings as our baseline. These rankings reflect point-of-sale data from participating comic shops, giving us a useful snapshot of what readers are actually buying at retail.

Once again, here’s the link:

Top 50 Comics - April 2026

NEW – More Data! Sales Rankings Based on Comic Store POS Data

April 2026 qualifying Claws & Thunder books:

Ultimate Wolverine #16 • #16 by units • #12 by dollars

Wolverine #18 • #33 by units • #30 by dollars

Wolverine Weapons of Armageddon #3 • Did NOT make the public Units Top 50 • #47 by dollars

And now for the part that hurts my little weather goddess-loving heart…

Storm: Earth's Mightiest Mutant #3 was not in the public Top 50 this month.

Which means, once again, fellow RoLo’ers, we really need to double down on supporting Ororo’s solo projects.

Now to be fair, this isn’t just a Storm problem. The comic industry as a whole is in a very strange place right now. As I mentioned in the March Sales Watch, DC is currently dominating large portions of the market, while Marvel still seems to be struggling to fully regain its footing.

Of course, I’m thrilled as a Logan fan that his books continue proving why Wolverine remains one of Marvel’s most dependable and popular characters.

And as for Ororo? I will continue saying this with my full chest:

Storm is one of the greatest characters Marvel has ever created.

Period.

She deserves our support. She deserves investment. And she absolutely deserves sustained solo success.

And you all know I will forever believe Marvel is overlooking the obvious answer for generating huge headlines and massive sales:

A true Wolverine & Storm series.

Come on, Marvel.

Be brave. Be bold. And finally give us the hot, steamy, action-packed mutant power couple we deserve.

Until then, this RoLo gremlin will continue monitoring sales charts and spreading the gospel of RoLo.

And of course…

I choose RoLo.

[theweatherwitch]

I don't know why they won't do this,

Leaving money aside, it's like they have an embargo policy against RoLo at Marvel headquarters. Baited and switched constantly 💜

God FREEE Ororo from Wakanda. God damn.

Can't see anything about just HER without people bringing up T'Challa. Yall realize not everyone has to be completely in love with your ships right?? Like 😶

I cant find Ororo x literally ANYONE else without T'Challa x Ororo stans being annoying as shit and weird for no reason. Get a grip

[creaturefeaturecommando]

Storm x T’Challa fans really want Storm to be tied down to that man and for what. Like they themselves don’t even see her as her own character as long as she’s “T’Challa’s wife” that’s all that matters to them as long as they get their “black love” , like it’s giving Dr Umar

Meanwhile I don’t care for Logan x Storm but they never reduce her down to “Logan’s woman” if anything Logan gets turned to “Storm’s man” and it’s the same with Nightcrawler x Storm, they don’t reduce Storm to “his woman” either it’s only T’Challa x Storm people who think that, they reduce her to an object that’s supposed to stand by his side to support their “black love” rhetoric they never call Storm anything but “his queen” “his wife” they treat her as if she belongs to T’Challa.

[3kkh0]

Again both of y'all speak so much truth about why I hate this ship so fucking much. Like in theory it's cool because of the Black love angle but through its execution it falls flat. Like it had its moments but those moments were way too far in-between and inconsistent to justify it.

And the fans...those fucking goobers turner a ship that I would have been neutral about under any other circumstance into one of my most hated ships.

If it only has one hater, then it's me. If there are no haters then I'm dead!

[creaturefeaturecommando]

The way I was looking through my x men tag to find a video and clicked on this to see that this isn’t a simple reblog it was a warning

[theweatherwitch]

It's still 2026 and still it's going on. You would think after after 14 years they would set her free. Mind you he divorced her, yet that fandom can't let her go. She is the only high profile woman he has dated and married. I wish they made a new black love interest or new love interest in general for T'challa so they and that fandom could finally move on and find their perfect domesticated wife and mother.

The fanon Stormpanther that they have in their head is understandable but the actual canon material has nothing that can drive their fandom forward. It is still stuck in that marriage-divorce loop. There are missing the hook that would make them interesting together.

As a fandom Stormpanthers are weird, you would think the shared love for Storm would create a unified fandom regardless if you ship Black panther x Storm , Wolverine x Storm , Nightcrawler x Storm or Forge x Storm.

The latter shippers don't have a big issue with anyone because we understand that Storm is our shared character that we love and for that we will respect each other. I will read, write and contribute to all the 3 ships like I always have done even if I love Stormverine mainly. Because I'm from that era where there was fandoms that understood the concept of multiship and don't like don't read.

As for Stormpanther the reason why there is a friction is because I realized something this past weeks that had me thinking.

Someone, a Stormpanther fan compared Stormverine to Zutara in a very mocking way.

And then my mind was blown away!

The reason why Stormpanther is lacking chemistry, why it is still unpopular in wider fandom despise the wedding of the century, why they are so loud on Twitter but not on Tumblr and Tiktok is because the Stormpanther fandom at it's core is male gaze while Stormverine is female gaze.

Zutara (Zuko x Katara) is a ship from the cartoon/live action Avatar the last Airbender. It's a polarizing but extremely popular ship with characters that had undeniable chemistry, yet they got baited and switched in the last minute for the canon ship Kaatang. Kataang (Aang x Katara) is undeniably for the male gaze and last minute self insert for the writers. Both fandoms (Kataang and Stormpanther) got their respective canons, yet both fandoms feel insecure that they have to erase and trivialize their respective rival ships 24/7.

So in conclusion, male gaze fandoms and ships always will dim the light of the female characters and be very hostile against perceived threats. Stormpanther is a predominantly male fandom with emphasis on the male gaze, in this case T'challa.

The other ships are very female gaze coded with raw chemistry and complementary characters traits. They have complex dynamics that female readers appreciate.

If you see a ship survive decades without canon media yet continue to thrive, it's female coded. Just look up books that have female readers as audience, they have this type of dynamic.

With that said both Kaatang and Stormpanther won the battle but lost the war in the end. Because you can't stop fandoms from creating their own and being inspired by things they love 💜

Hi there anon! Yes I'm aware, they've not contacted this blog in particular, but boosting this so others who follow here can know/protect their own spaces too. Best thing to do is just block and ignore without engaging!

I've kept a lower profile recently because the discourse got a bit much for me (on both sides of the ship lol just because I have my obvious OTP doesn't mean I don't ship other ships 🥲) but I hope everyone knows I'll keep fyeahstormandwolvie running for as long as tumblr is up as a platform! (and if that if tumblr ever goes down I'll migrate to somewhere ad-less like DW or something haha. archiving and curating fan stuff is fun!)

[therolocorner]

Hey guys, this is a special post due to safety.

Make sure to keep yourselves safe in all ways, and don't fall for any rage bait. Remember, that's what they want. We will stand tall and strong regardless of opposition.

RoLo forever!!

This individual is mentally ill and has no life outside her beloved ship. It has been months now, you would think the botlike behavior would stop. Sadly this individual has multiple accounts on multiple social media, doing harassment campaigns day in and day out, flooding the Stormverine tags on twitter and creating fake narrative on Reddit to score points. All Storm subreddits has slowly been taking over by this individual and her clique to set a narrative. Because this target harassment is to set up a narrative, that Stormverine is fake and that Stormpanther is the truth, like a mantra.

I will say this, these "fans" where nowhere to be seen when Ororo was being slutshamed and her popularity was questioned by the almighty Black Panther fandom.

T'challa was replaced by Shuri in a game, yet Ororo was catching all the heat.

The Stormpanthers where nowhere to be found and that's to be expected, because they are Black Panther fans first, "Stormpather second".

By second i mean as long as it makes T'challa look good they will pretend to like Ororo for him because of optics. I can't blame T'challa fans they suppport him unapologetically and advocate for him daily with or without Stormpanther.

I rather take an honest Black Panther fan that doesn't pretend to like Storm instead of a dishonest Stormpanther fan. The dishonest ones pretends they are fans of Storm but are secretly undercover Black Panther stans that has not self actualized yet.

[therolocorner]

I dare you to show me a couple that give off more healthy marriage vibes than these two.
