Character Origin & Backstory:🔥🔥🔥 EARLY LIFE & CAREER 1994-2011
Son of Dr. Franklin Storm, a quantum physicist who was featured in several magazines in 1985 including TIME and Forbes, Johnny was at best a B student growing up after his mother died when he was four years old. He took more to sports and spending his father's money on fast cars, clothes, and whatever it took to impress girls in his teenage years. In high school Johnny was expelled from the private school his father insisted on near their home in Brooklyn and had to finish his education in public school. Shortly after graduating high school, Johnny's older sister asked if he wanted to lend a hand getting an experimental shuttle into space before everything their father had worked for was lost. He accepted the offer, the rest was history.
🔥🔥🔥 THE FANTASTIC ➃ 2012-2015
Johnny's first year after gaining powers was mostly Reed trying to 'cure' the F4 of their radiation based mutations, namely the Thing's. Johnny however used his powers to gain attention in the media and briefly flirted with the idea of becoming a BMX sports athlete. He managed to get a spot in an Old Spice commercial that made him even more of a media darling. The last three years has seen the group face off against other worldly creatures from beneath the Earth's surface, beings from other dimensions, and even an evil artificial intelligence. While Johnny's temper often had him clashing with Reed, he often got on the nerves of the Thing who didn't care for his childish humor. In the field it was often Sue who would get her younger brother's head in the game, but after seeing the respect the Avengers recieved he set his sights to brighter goals and soon decided to leave the team.
🔥🔥🔥 HIS OWN MAN 2016-
Currently Johnny is trying to make a name for himself as a solo superhero in hopes that the Avengers will one day recruit him into their ranks.
