I love Jean in space. I am not a fan of the Phoenix force mentioned. I was hoping that they world retcon the retcon in Fall of X.

I have had a horrible few days (someone close to me is in the final stages of alzheimer), but this news actually made me feel happy. Jean IS Phoenix.

With Omega Red whispering nothings in Jean’s ear. :)

I really dislike how 2023 ended with Jean being stabbed again. She just can’t seem to catch a break.

It would be quite anticlimactic if Jean becomes the one true Phoenix (again) and then in the...

The past few weeks I have re-read Claremont and Byrne’s Jean as Phoenix stories, Bendis’s All-New X-Men, and now X-Men Red. I really loved this team.

Re-reading X-Men Red, the first one, starring Jean. Maybe Xavier and Magneto could have pitched their idea to Jean before making Krakoa a nation?

Oh! Interesting theory! That seems right up Mother Righteous’s alley.

On Twitter several users thought it was Hope. From the pic, I thought it too. She looked so young. Then I speed read the issue, and unless there are two Hopes running around, this has to be Jean,...

I love what Simonson says about Jean in this interview, she really gets Jean and it is clear how much she loves writing her. Only time will tell how much of what is hinted in the interview will see...

Okay, I am crying now. This is all I have ever wanted when it comes to Jean and Phoenix. I am not sure that the editors let Simonson go all the way with her vision, but just seeing a writer talk...

Damn. Jean Grey #1 only made top 5 on the weekly chart. Doubt it will make top 10 for the month of August - even though it is said to have sold out.
(I know this is only a few retailers, but it is...

Ranking the ongoing titles:

Immortal X-Men: I love Gillen’s writing. Truly love it. This is a standout for me. His Shaw is superb.

X-Men: I love what Duggan is doing to Kate, even though I...

Works for me.

Regarding Jean in the 90s: for me it was quite a shock how different Jean was portrayed the first few years or so after the re-launch of the X-Men books in 1991. Most of her fiery temper from...

Really hope ”Jean Grey” #1 will make the top 10.

I really hope Jean’s limited series ends up in the top 10, or even top 5. I know that the charts we get are from a small number of comic book stores, but they are a good indication.

Thank you, Mercury and whitecrown, for your insight into Jean’s story. I haven’t read that many ”behind the scenes”-articles, so your info means a lot.

Did John Byrne really not like Jean as Phoenix, or did he just think that Jean as Phoenix was too powerful to be a member of X-Men? That is, having Jean being immensely powerful was not in itself the...

That would be amazing. :)

In my dream scenario it means that Jean felt her ultimate potential from the very beginning, but wasn’t ready for it. Being the actual Phoenix itself is her ultimate potential. I know it probably...

I love that it is sold out. How wonderful!

Uncanny X-Men 231 is also a great read if you like Colossus. Claremont always reminded readers that Colossus was one of the strongest persons in the world. That fact seems to be forgotten today.

I loved Colossus in Fall of the Mutants. Especially his return in UXM 225. Marc Silvestri drew him so well.

This felt like a more coherent version of Tini Howard’s Excalibur.

Even though it is more coherent than Tini Howard’s writing it is still by far the weakest of the Fall of X-titles. Maybe it will...

I can’t believe X-Force just stood there while Orchis attacked, waiting for Colossus to tell them what to do.
