Truer words have never been spoken.... sorry pre-inferno Maddy fans.

I'm a big Jean fan, but I would say it's Storm.
Storm's been a constant on the x-books since her introduction while Jean has spent many years dead and out of publication. She is the de facto leader...

Jean's hair should ALWAYS be ruby red. Enough with the orange ginger tone.

Do people in Krakoa also call Quicksilver a "pretender"?

Surprised (but happy) that Mystique is leading the poll. I tought people were tired of her.

My choices: Mystique, Destiny, Avalanche, Pyro, Toad and Rogue.

Sara Grey definitely deserves a chance, there's potential there.

And the kids were already confirmed mutants so there is no reason to not resurrect them

Yikes, this does read like bad fanfiction. The Phoenix used to be such an special aspect of the X-Men mythos....

Yeah. If only writers would put as much thought and respect writing Jean like they do with Magneto, it would be awesome. But it's wishfull thinking.

lol a woman wearing a skirt and showing her legs is sexist now? There are many examples of gratuitous sexualisation of comic book characters, especially female characters but Marvel Girl Jean is not...

I like the MG mini dress to be honest. It's distinctive and it's a costume Jean has shown to be attached to in the past. Plus there's nothing wrong with showing her thighs a little bit, Storm wore a...

I would say that current x-books are, quality wise, much better than Claremont's latest efforts.

Ugh that title... hyperbole much? You may not like Lee and Liefeld but they did make X-Men the mega-team they were in the 90s. In fact I don't think the X-Men were ever "ruined". They had good and...

Some nice Jean/Phoenix art by Phil Jimenez I found on the web:

Bachalo sure put out a lot of work on the x-books this past decade and came up with some memorable redesigns, though I would say nothing tops his GenX work. And one can clearly see the influence of...

It had potential, good start but then got progressively worse and didn't go anywhere. Great art. So I would say it's neither good nor bad, just incredibly average and not a "must-read".

He did...

I think it's more a matter of not trivializing death. Also is in character for Storm to never give up.

That X-Men Red costume have become my favourite Storm look ever. It looks great in black or white.

Im my headcanon all the phoenix hosts across the multiverse share this hivemind wich calls itself The Phoenix. So I would say multiversal but who knows anymore, Marvel really fucked up the phoenix...

Totally agree with this. I don't like it when they make Jean look like a regular ginger, with freckles and stuff. Her hair should be red like blood. Probably not realistic but this is comics so...

DOFP was a good and well received movie so I'll give Singer some credit for that at least. I liked Vaughn's approach and First Class was fun but not exactly a good X-Men adaptation, and he made...

Of course Cyclops can do or say something funny, but if he's cracking jokes all the times it would be out of character. And I am actually hoping the same things that you do, just voicing a concern...

That's fine, I would take a good Cyclops characterization instead.
Not Fox's non-character, and not quippy Scott.

Yeah, a wrong character. Quippy Cyclops would be awkward to watch.

Teen Cyclops book was lovely. Didn't know it outsold Storm.... ouch.

But they're what makes it ANAD.... but ok.
