...power loss are described.

Yes, her power loss has shifted her emotional relationship with the world, but it also literally leaves her, to some extent, experiencing "blindness".

Using this perspective, her grief then is two-fold; not only is she mourning her identity...

...her–in many ways, she's no longer Storm.

It connects with Xavier's inability to find her using Cerebro. In many ways, she's no longer the woman he's looking for, irrevocably changed following Gyrich's attack.

Even as she'll continue to prove her value without her powers...

...stranger for himself, rather than for her–but also speaks to the depths of Ororo's suicidality now that she's cut off from her mutant identity.

Even more than ability to control the weather, Ororo's mutant abilities shaped the way she interacted with the world around...

...to support Ororo–as we'll learn later in the character's arc–his rescue is as much about trying to amend past unrelated harms as much as it is addressing this most recent one.

Ororo's insistence that Forge's need to save her was not a kindness speaks to this; he saved this...

As much as LifeDeath is Ororo's story–it also provides valuable characterization to Forge; is he helping Ororo out of guilt? Identification? Both?

In either case, his personalization of her tragedy leaves him not entirely sympathetic.

There's selfishness to his willingness...

...to render Ororo's grief before us, even without having the woman speak a single line.

The issue's slower pace and deep attention to affect adds a significant amount of depth to Forge, despite the Maker having only been introduced to the Run two issues ago.

...the right artist. Whereas other artists may have spent less time with the silence between Ororo and Forge's interactions, Barry Windsor-Smith slows the pacing between panels down to a near stop, allowing his almost sketchy, but deeply affecting pencils...

...simply too incredible to consider compressing into a single thread. So, through the rest of the weekend, we'll be reading (and hopefully discussing!) this outstanding issue of the Uncanny X-Men.

Once upon a time, there was a woman who could fly.

LifeDeath opens with...

Coraline (2009):

Forge, moments too late, arrives on scene and rushes to pull Ororo's limp body from the river's current, nearly spitting at Gyrich as he screams that the man has destroyed Ororo.

But what does the government care about justice, when to them, your identity is criminal on its own?
