"Operation: Galactic Storm" was a 19-part comic book crossover storyline which ran through Marvel Comics' Avengers related titles - Avengers, Avengers West Coast, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Wonder Man and Quasar - between March and May 1992.

The storyline, which involves the Avengers intervening in an intergalactic war between the alien Kree and Shi'ar empires, is notable among inter-title super-hero crossovers for its emphasis on tight plotting and characterization and its downbeat ending.

The overarching plotline was devised by Mark Gruenwald, Bob Harras and Fabian Nicieza, though each individual issue was written and drawn by the regular creative teams on each title.

Famous quotes containing the words galactic and/or storm:

    When the galactic sea was sucked
    And all the dry seabed unlocked,
    I sent my creature scouting on the globe,
    That globe itself of hair and bone....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The victors and the vanquished then the storm it tossed and tore,
    As hard they strove, those worn-out men, upon that surly shore;
    Dead Nelson and his half-dead crew, his foes from near and far,
    Were rolled together on the deep that night at Trafalgar!
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
