Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Stormwatch is a series originally created by Jim Lee and Brandon Choi under Lee's studio Wildstorm Productions in association with Image Comics in 1993. In 1996, Warren Ellis took over writing duties, making it a critical darling and fan favorite.The comics follow the eponymous Stormwatch, a fictional United Nations-sponsored superhero team in the Wildstorm Universe (originally the Image Universe). Unlike traditional superteams, they receive assignments from the United Nations; the leadership of a UN member nation has to issue a formal request for Stormwatch to act. Once called, they partake in various endeavors, such as foiling terrorist plots, preventing national disturbances or thwarting aspiring super-villains.Ellis' run on the title introduced several memorable characters, such as the retired and cynical Jenny Sparks and urban empath Jack Hawksmoor. Ellis also didn't shy away from both political commentary (Stormwatch having to fight a corrupt and hostile U.S. government on multiple occasions) and commentary on the genre of comics as a whole (the history of Jenny Sparks). It also had the main leader of Stormwatch, Henry Bendix, reveal himself as a manipulative sociopath before he's forced to leave the organization. In 1997, most of Stormwatch was killed offscreen or Put on a Bus in the Intercontinuity Crossover Wild C.A.T.s (WildStorm)/Aliens when the title was cancelled, and Ellis turned the surviving black ops unit 'Stormwatch Black' into the nucleus of The Authority.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The Stormwatch brand has been revived three times since then: first, Stormwatch: Team Achilles (2002-2005), a paramilitary team of Badass Normal Cape Busters. The title was cancelled unexpectedly when its writer was revealed to be faking the military background he was using to sell the book. The second incarnation, Stormwatch: Post Human Division, drops the paramilitary and advanced tech aspects of Team Achilles, and has a even mix of supers and non-supers trying to do the job with a drastically reduced budget.The third, going back to simply Stormwatch again, is by Paul Cornell and incorporates the team into The DCU as part of DC's line-wide relaunch in 2011 (the "New 52" or the "DCnU"). Stormwatch is a covert organization of superhumans that has been protecting the Earth from within the shadows for centuries, and they regard themselves as the "professionals" compared to Superman and the new wave of "superheroes" he inspired. The Martian Manhunter was a member of Stormwatch this time around, after an offscreen period serving with the Justice League that ended badly. He summed up the difference between the groups by saying that when he's with the League he's a hero, and when he's with Stormwatch he's a soldier.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })As of issue 19, after the first try proved to not be as successful as DC had hoped, it got re-rebooted, with writer Jim Starlin taking things back to something more similar to how they were in Wildstorm, complete with original logo. Previous stories were largely erased, Apollo and Midnighter went back to their old costumes, the Bleed was re-introduced, Skywatch was once again made their base of operations, and more classic Stormwatch characters like Hellstrike and Fuji were brought in. Though some elements of Cornell's set up remained, such as the Shadow Lords, it was pretty much a complete fresh start. The change resulted in a Broken Base. Fans of the first 18 issues were NOT pleased with the change, due to it erasing events from continuity and heading in a whole new direction, while fans of the Wildstorm incarnation mostly rejoiced. Since the first storyline was "Something's happened to Stormwatch history; we need to Set Right What Once Went Wrong", it's unclear how permanent Starlin intended the changes to be (especially given that the new set up contradicted Demon Knights and All-Star Western's "19th Century Stormwatch"). Unfortunately, the re-reboot didn't succeed in winning new readers, and DC cancelled the Stormwatch series, but not before the very last issue re-re-rebooted Stormwatch back to the #1-18 continuity. | |

Sorry, I'm Gay: In Stormwatch 46, a rare Breather Episode, Fahrenheit, Jenny Sparks, and Flint are at a restaurant in Paris, and Fahrenheit has already picked up a hot guy, but when she calls Flint over to translate what he's saying, it turns out what he was trying to tell her was he's gay. Fahrenheit jokingly suggests that the three women kidnap him and "keep at him until he starts liking girls..." | |

Full-Frontal Assault: Father, a Straw Nihilist cyborg, and the first villain of Warren Ellis's run. As if being a mass-murdering Implacable Man with no flesh on his face who quotes Nietzsche while killing people isn't unsettling enough, he is also naked, probably as a result of being an Artificial Human recently escaped from the base of his creator. | |

Energy Beings | |
| Stormwatch (Comic Book) / int_2164d2a1 | comment |
Energy Beings: Fuji, who wears a suit that looks like a giant robot and provides some... interesting side effects. Due to his form being extremely sensitive to vibrations, he has an orgasm every five minutes. This is explicitly said to be because he is made out of plasma (ionized gas), not Pure Energy. Lately it was revealed his bosses found out about the orgasms and had his suit outfitted with dampeners. Hellstrike is another energy/gaseous being, but he has a much more humanoid containment suit. | |

Spiritual Successor: Most famously, The Authority, made up mostly of characters Ellis created during his run on Stormwatch. The Monarchy tried to follow in its footsteps with other Stormwatch members. Also, Justice League Unlimited's portrayal of the League as a larger organization with support crew and political conflicts with the United States was also influenced by Stormwatch. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| Stormwatch (Comic Book) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Stormwatch does a Lampshade Hanging on this in "Bleed", where, after viewing a parallel world where there are several Stormwatch teams, Winter remarks "You can't put twenty superhumans in the same town without them picking fights with each another." It can be argued, though, that these comics do a mini rotating arc within the issue by pairing up some of the characters: for example, in The Authority, Midnighter and Apollo, and Jack and The Engineer usually work together as well as being romantically linked while Shen and The Doctor alternate between teams/partners or work alone. Oh, and Jenny (both versions) does whatever the hell she likes. | |

Wearing a Flag on Your Head: Fuji has a Japanese flag pattern painted on his face. Icons: The DC & Wildstorm art of Jim Lee shows that in the original concept for Stormwatch, the entire Multinational Team wore their flags on their faces. | |

Put on a Bus | |
| Stormwatch (Comic Book) / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: Several characters at the beginning of Ellis' run; one character gets dishonorably discharged in the space of one panel, apparently just for the Take That! value. It's a bit of Reality Subtext as well: Bendix's "housecleaning" of Stormwatch is Ellis' "housecleaning." | |

Took a Level in Badass: By the time of Wildstorm's cancellation, everyone who was alive by that point was tougher/stronger/faster than when they were first written. To give some context: Battalion goes from carrying guns and having some telepathy to taking out thousands of marauding mutants with little assistance. Fuji goes from being The Big Guy to someone who could use his powers to save the entirety of Stormwatch even as their disintegrating space station fell from orbit. And finally Winter went from badass to, well, a badass who drove the vampire race to extinction within an hour of encountering them. | |

Meat Moss: A village is accidentally hit with a biochemical that can activate superpowers (or it's intended to, and at least radically alters the human body). When a team is sent to investigate, they find the church overgrown with this, with a fleshy beacon outlined with fingers. One of the team figures out that those affected by the biochemical evacuated the other villagers there and then covered them over as they mutated into Meat Moss, and pulls it away to reveal the survivors. | |

Jurisdiction Friction: During Ellis's run, Stormwatch clashed frequently with the US, and was eventually banned from acting on American soil unless explicitly asked to do so by a Code Perfect. In the first story arc of volume 2, illegal superhumans were going to attack an American town and Stormwatch was unable to legally stop them, until Battalion found a loophole: he found a visiting French national in the town, and called the French Premier and asked him to invoke Code Perfect, on behalf of his citizen. | |

Rotating Arcs | |
| Stormwatch (Comic Book) / int_d53c0a3e | comment |
Rotating Arcs: Noticeably averted in Stormwatch and The Authority, where the teams are really too small to divide everyone up. Stormwatch does a Lampshade Hanging on this in "Bleed", where, after viewing a parallel world where there are several Stormwatch teams, Winter remarks "You can't put twenty superhumans in the same town without them picking fights with each another." It can be argued, though, that these comics do a mini rotating arc within the issue by pairing up some of the characters: for example, in The Authority, Midnighter and Apollo, and Jack and The Engineer usually work together as well as being romantically linked while Shen and The Doctor alternate between teams/partners or work alone. Oh, and Jenny (both versions) does whatever the hell she likes. | |
