Although the phrase is featured in the storyline (it is the name the Avengers give to their own deployment) the plot bears no real relation to the Gulf conflict and was apparently not intended to have any overt parallels with it, save the obvious fact that "Operation: Galactic Storm" also involved a major conflict. </p><p>In fact, the crossover was in many ways a <a href="/wiki/Sequel" title="Sequel">sequel</a> to a previous Avengers story - the 1971/1972 "<a href="/wiki/Kree-Skrull_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Kree-Skrull War">Kree-Skrull War</a>". Like the previous story, "Operation: Galactic Storm" features the Avengers getting caught in the middle of a cosmic war waged between two alien empires - this time the Kree and the Shi'ar (rather than the Kree/<a href="/wiki/Skrull" title="Skrull">Skrull</a> conflict featured in its predecessor) - because that war endangers the safety of the planet <a href="/wiki/Earth" title="Earth">Earth</a>. </p><p>Mark Gruenwald has discussed the origins of the storyline <sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> as a <i>Quasar</i> story which was expanded when he (then Marvel's executive editor and writer of <i>Captain America</i> and <i>Quasar</i>), Bob Harras (at the time the <i>Avengers</i> writer and the <i><a href="/wiki/X-Men" title="X-Men">X-Men</a></i> line's editor), and Fabian Nicieza (then editor of <i>Wonder Man</i> and a writer of numerous non-Avengers books) were looking for an appropriate plot for a proposed Avengers crossover. </p><p>Harras's role was instrumental in approving the story. As the <i>X-Men</i> editor, he could authorize the extensive use of the Shi'ar, a race which until then had rarely appeared outside of the <i>X-Men</i> titles where they had made their debut. </p><p>The three creators mapped out the proposed storyline, which was further expanded at an "Avengers summit" when all the writers and editors whose series were involved in the crossover gathered together to further refine the plot. </p><p>Creators who contributed to the storyline included writers Gruenwald, Harras, <a href="/wiki/Tom_DeFalco" title="Tom DeFalco">Tom DeFalco</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gerard_Jones" title="Gerard Jones">Gerard Jones</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Len_Kaminski&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Len Kaminski (page does not exist)">Len Kaminski</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Roy_Thomas" title="Roy Thomas">Roy Thomas</a> (who wrote the original <i>Kree-Skrull War</i> storyline); pencillers <a href="/wiki/Greg_Capullo" title="Greg Capullo">Greg Capullo</a>, <a href="/wiki/Steve_Epting" title="Steve Epting">Steve Epting</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ron_Frenz" title="Ron Frenz">Ron Frenz</a>, <a href="/wiki/Jeff_Johnson_(artist)" title="Jeff Johnson (artist)">Jeff Johnson</a>, <a href="/wiki/Rik_Levins" title="Rik Levins">Rik Levins</a>, <a href="/wiki/Pat_Olliffe" title="Pat Olliffe">Pat Olliffe</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=David_Ross_(comics)&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="David Ross (comics) (page does not exist)">David Ross</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Paul_Ryan_(cartoonist)" title="Paul Ryan (cartoonist)">Paul Ryan</a>; and editors Nicieza, <a href="/wiki/Ralph_Macchio_(editor)" title="Ralph Macchio (editor)">Ralph Macchio</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Nel_Yomtov&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Nel Yomtov (page does not exist)">Nel Yomtov</a>, and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Kelly_Corvese&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Kelly Corvese (page does not exist)">Kelly Corvese</a>. </p><p>The storyline was tightly plotted so that each issue was supposed to carry the story forward in some way.

Captain America's team are repeatedly captured and imprisoned by the Kree authorities while Captain Marvel's team engages in a number of short battles with various Shi'ar forces. </p><p>During the course of these encounters it is revealed that the Shi'ar has managed to create a massive super weapon&#8212;the "Nega-Bomb"&#8212; using Kree artifacts including the original <a href="/wiki/Captain_Marvel_(Mar-Vell)" title="Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell)">Captain Marvel</a>'s Nega-Bands which has been stolen from the dead hero's tomb. This bomb is capable of devastating an area equivalent to that of the Kree Empire (which is supposedly located throughout the <a href="/wiki/Large_Magellanic_Cloud" title="Large Magellanic Cloud">Large Magellanic Cloud</a>). </p><p>Also during the conflict, the Kree's military leaders are assassinated by the Shi'ar agent <a href="/wiki/Deathbird" title="Deathbird">Deathbird</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Supreme_Intelligence" title="Supreme Intelligence">Supreme Intelligence</a> regains (temporary) control of the Kree forces, and Skrull agents are revealed to be surreptitiously manipulating the court of the Shi'ar <a href="/wiki/Lilandra_Neramani" title="Lilandra Neramani">Majestrix Lilandra</a> into escalating the conflict. </p><p>Eventually, Captain Marvel's Avengers delegation manages to convince Lilandra to try to begin peace negotiations with the Kree. However, by this point, the Nega-Bomb has been stolen by Skrull agents and her efforts to recall the weapon fail. </p><p>Despite the presence of Avengers members Wonder Man and the Vision in the Nega-Bomb's massive interior, the device is successfully detonated in <i>Wonder Man</i> #9 (May 1992). The Kree Empire is devastated by its effects, with billions dying instantaneously. </p><p>In <i>Avengers</i> #347 (May 1992) the various Avengers (all of whom manage to survive the bomb's effects; the Vision turned intangible, Wonder Man's ionic body absorbed the released energy, Sersi turned the rest of the Kree team into inanimate matter, and the Shi'ar team hadn't arrived on the scene yet) gather on Hala, the Kree homeworld, and discover that most of the events of the war- up to and including the Nega-Bomb's detonation- have been manipulated and engineered by the Kree Supreme Intelligence. This creature, an amalgam of the consciousness of thousands of generations of Kree military leaders, calculated that the bomb's radioactive effects would serve to jumpstart the Kree race's evolution which had previously been thought stalled. </p><p>Horrified by this revelation, and faced with the problem with what to do now with the captured Supreme Intelligence, a group of Avengers decides that the Supreme Intelligence should be killed for its act of genocide. </p><p>Disagreeing with this idea completely, Captain America holds a vote, and when a majority of Avengers agree that killing the Intelligence is not appropriate, he orders that no Avenger should kill the creature. Iron Man refuses to follow this order (invoking his seniority as a founding member), and he and the other dissenting Avengers- Black Knight, Hercules, Sersi, Thor, Vision, and Wonder Man attempt to terminate the creature, apparently succeeding. </p><p>A Shi'ar delegation then appears and announces that they will annex the devastated Kree Empire, with Lilandra's sister Deathbird becoming <a href="/wiki/Viceroy" title="Viceroy">viceroy</a> of the Kree territories. The Avengers return to Earth divided and disillusioned by the events of the storyline, and the consciousness of the Supreme Intelligence is shown to have survived and escaped to a waiting <a href="/wiki/Starship" title="Starship">spaceship</a> crewed by Skrulls. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Aftermath_of_the_war">Aftermath of the war</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Operation:_Galactic_Storm&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: Aftermath of the war"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The immediate aftermath of the storyline is explored in the <i>Captain America</i> and <i>Quasar</i> titles. <i>Captain America</i> #401 (June 1992) examines the effects of the conflict on Captain America, such as his disappointment in those teammates who disobeyed his orders and in the Avengers group as a whole. </p><p><i>Quasar</i> #35 and #36 (June - July 1992) explores the larger repercussions of the storyline: the effect on the wider cosmos of the Nega-Bomb explosion and the sudden death of billions of lifeforms and the collapse of a major space empire. </p><p>Other comics which tie directly into the events of "Operation Galactic Storm" include <i><a href="/wiki/Silver_Surfer_(comic_book)" title="Silver Surfer (comic book)">Silver Surfer</a></i> (vol. 2) #79 (April 1993) which features the return of two Kree characters, <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Minerva" title="Doctor Minerva">Doctor Minerva</a> and <a href="/wiki/Captain_Atlas" title="Captain Atlas">Captain Atlas</a>, who are thought to have died at the conclusion of "Operation: Galactic Storm"; and <i><a href="/wiki/X-Men_Unlimited" title="X-Men Unlimited">X-Men Unlimited</a></i> #5 (June 1994) which features the Shi'ar's formal ceremonies of the annexation of the Kree Empire into the Shi'ar empire, likewise <i><a href="/wiki/Avengers_Forever" title="Avengers Forever">Avengers Forever</a></i> #8 (July 1997), features how the events of the crossover may lead (and led at least in one timeline) the Avengers to become a <a href="/wiki/Paramilitary" title="Paramilitary">paramilitary</a> group that controls a vast and repressive interstellar empire, Iron Man's actions at the time having been provoked by <a href="/wiki/Immortus" title="Immortus">Immortus</a> to create a crucial schism in the team that would prevent them from following this path. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sequels">Sequels</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Operation:_Galactic_Storm&amp;action=edit&amp;section=7" title="Edit section: Sequels"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In a more general sense, the implications and repercussions of the events depicted in the crossover have had a wide and continuing effect on many stories set in the <a href="/wiki/Marvel_Universe" title="Marvel Universe">Marvel Universe</a>, most especially stories featuring the Kree, Shi'ar, and Skrull as the events of the crossover changed the status quo of each of those races to varying degrees. </p><p>Many subsequent <i>Avengers</i> storylines feature attempts by surviving Kree to exact revenge on the Avengers team for their supposed role in the Nega-Bomb's detonation, more specifically Avengers #364-366 and the 1998 four-part Avengers crossover <b>Live Kree or Die!</b>.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The former, would introduce Deathcry to the Avengers, a Shi'ar rebel who would be part of a secret movement that sought to help the Kree who were suffering under Shi'ar rule. Deathcry would ultimately leave the Avengers in Avengers #389, in order to help fight alongside the Kree. </p><p>The crossover event "Maximum Security" and its prequel, "Avengers Forever" would ultimately restore the Kree Empire to its former glory. Using the Time Crystal acquired in "Avengers Forever", the Supreme Intelligence would rapidly evolve the Kree to a new monstrous form known as the Ruul. Pretending to be a newly discovered species, the Ruul would reveal themselves to be the Kree. They manipulate the Galactic Council, a coalition of the universe's oldest planetary ruling powers, into turning Earth into a prison planet for alien criminals and briefly merge a spore of Ego the Living Planet with humanity's world, so as to turn Ego into a weapon for the Kree and eliminating the Terran threat to their plans. Revealing their true identities, the Kree launched a galaxy-wide invasion of all of the major rival empires, reclaiming much of their lost territories and establishing a new Kree empire. However, Earth's mightiest heroes would be able to liberate Earth and free it from Ego, denying them a major weapon. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
