Nova Storm (Cyberverse)

Nova Storm is a Decepticon Seeker from the Cyberverse continuity family.

If Firestar is "Novastar" now, does that mean Nova Storm's new name is "Firestorm"?

Nova Storm and Thundercracker restrained Windblade, and was head-butted by Teletraan-X when she menaced Bumblebee. The seekers pursued the Autobots through the facility and split up, Nova Storm and Thundercracker going after Bumblebee, who once again evaded capture.

Notes

Her Male equivalent

• This is the first mainstream usage of the name "Nova Storm", having previously only been used as a retroactively-applied name given to a member of the Generation 1 Rainmakers (via "Ask Vector Prime"). While both Seekers, this Nova Storm differs from the original in both gender and color scheme, being primarily purple rather than yellow.
• Early model art for the character (seen at right) indicates that Nova Storm was originally planned to be male. Given the purple-and-black colours and her partnership with Thundercracker, it seems this character may have originally been intended to be the Cyberverse version of Thundercracker's traditional flying partner Skywarp, but the character’s name was changed when it was decided to change their gender to female. Skywarp was conspicuously absent from the first two seasons of Cyberverse until season 3. By that time, any hypothetical reservations about a female Skywarp must have ended, given a proper Cyberverse Skywarp appears with the character's traditional gender inverted.
• Starting with "Sabotage", Nova Storm uses an incorrect model where she lacks any trim on her cockpit in robot mode.
