Jean Grey Appreciation III

[5cents]

For me ANXM is better when it focuses on Jean and what is happening around her. I couldn't get into issue 3 because it mostly dealt with the extinction team (we already had enough of them esp with avx). Hopefully this is where Jean starts to lead the book.

Resistance against it but there have been those who've gotten around it, Xavier, Martha Johanssen, Marvel Boy, and Jean.

Sebastian Shaw!!

Not once, but twice... Most reticently, while she was in her secondary form and once back in the day when she was the almighty telepathic White Queen.

Both times -- most embarrassing !!

Nice to see issue 5 getting good reviews and selling well.

Good, good. Go forth and spread the good news about the One True Goddess, loyal service to the great and powerful Jean Grey carries with it many rewards, in this life and the next, and possibly the one after that, though if you go any deeper there are no concrete guarantees.

And then shall appear the sign of the Daughter of Phoenix in heaven, and then shall all the tribes of the Earth mourn; and they shall see the Daughter of Phoenix coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory...

I've al ways thought seeing a giant firebird in the sky might feel like the second coming...

I wonder if we'll ever see a return of her Blue/Gold team outfit

I'm guessing not. It's one of her blandest and very few people seem to like it.

As a straight man I am contractually obligated to disavow any knowledge of design principles, but isn't one of the most basic ones that you never, ever feature all three primary colors prominently unless you want your character to look like a goofy eight year old?

Are we counting hair color? I'm told you're supposed to dress to go with your hair and skin tone which is probably why Jean wears green a lot.

Well I'm proud to be one of the few who likes it.

Much of the hate also probably comes from the way she was characterized during the period in which she wore it, which is to say, not much at all.

You may have some competition their in Goddesses.

It is proclaimed on the Storm Thread the she is the Goddess of the Marvel Universe.

For me, Wanda Maximoff is a Goddess Like Venus, cause of her Stunning Beauty, Kindness and Her Powers over the once uncontrollable Chaos Magic. Only a Goddess to Hope to control such power.

To me though, all 3 Women Deserve to be considered Royalty in the Marvel Universe.

Agreed, her X-Factor years and Inferno arc didn't do her any justice IMHO
