    Jean got Jeen Grey solo, Blue as leader, Reserrection, Red as a solo, leader of Ahab event, Uncanny 1-10 as co-lead, and was the secondary main of the Charles annual.

    So I'm not sure how you can claim 12 issues and a mini is equal to 2 solos, 3 full runs, 2 minis, and 10 issues of another run
    If you're gonna count teen Jean, then you might as well count teen Scott as he had ANX v2, Blue, Venomized (Jean was dead until the final issue), Champions

    And if you're counting the teens there was also the Tyke solo. And Hopeless' ANXM where he was the leader. And Champions.
    ???

    JEEN WAS LEADER FOR HOPELESS'S RUN! The very instant the O5 got to the present, Jeen was given leadership, and Scott existed to be a living wangst outlet.

    Well Cyclops saga... Seems a deja vu for me

    Well anyway Cyclops wins because 2005-2015 he showed up on tons of books and jea nowhere

    Scott barely existed in AnX except as a Wangst outlet. Jeen was leader. I did forget about Champions, but characters calling Scott "Mutant Hitler" on panel tend to do that to me.

    What does Cyclops being on X-number of issues has to do with anything?
    Wolverine is on more than him
    Cyclops is on more than Jean
    Jean is on more than Storm.

    Jeen wasn't in ANXM v2. She was stuck in EXM.

On her worst day Jean has had a hundred times the exposure of countless other X-Men.
    Let me get this right: You are coming to an appreciation thread to complain because people are talking about that thread's character? Right...

    @powerpax, @PsychoEFrost you sure you are in the right thread?

    "Horribly written"....I guess occurred after she stopped being featured prominently across several books per month.

    Teen Jean only appeared in the final issue of Hopeless' run though I wouldnt consider Scott leader in that run. That didnt seem to have an official leader but if I had to choose, it felt more like Hank than anyone else

    He existed. Jean wasnt in ANX v2 so you cant put that on her. The writing sucked but Scott was prominently featured in that series

    I dont get it either. We Jean fans are expressing our disatisfaction with the lack of her lately and people are acting pressed bc we shouldnt have a right to have missed her. Why does any one care how we feel?

    I think EFrost is counting Jeen's appearances as part of her exposure since technically she is Jean.

    Thanks, Bendis.

    Mutants were almost extinct. Xavier died. Storm was chilling in Wakanda. Magneto was in semi-retirement.

    Cyclops stepped up.

    Appreciation shouldn't mean "Say blatantly false things that make the character look good". If that's what people want, then fine. But the argument started with people saying Jean basically hasn't existed since coming back, and somehow trying to claim that Scott and Charles have been pushed more over that time.

    Well, well, nobody acknowledged Extraordinary until now.

    Then if we are counting the minimal details that book should count too.

    When was Emma ever in multiple books at the same time, outside of cameos?

    AvX + whatever the X-Men run was at the time?

    I suppose but she was wasted there and was the defnition of supporting character with no development or arc of her own. At least the four O5 guys got that in AnX V2

    Storm still hasn't recovered from that Wakanda vacation, she's barely a character now. Hopefully, Dawn of X is good to her.
