One potential clue in the title Lifedeath is that was also a story title in the comics. That story revolved around a romance between Forge and Storm. Both characters are in this new series, so that’s a possible hint to a romance between the pair. What is a little strange is that Lifedeath Part 1 and Part 2 are separated by an episode titled Remember It. I guess we will have to wait to find out why?
