    I'll counter that grim Dini art with these touching counterpoints...

    Kitty was Claremont's Mary Sue. Jeen is Bendis'.

    There are a few parallels between this version of Jean and that character. Both of them have powers beyond what those around them exhibit that no one completely understands, and when that character turns pink she can fly and her power effectively doubles. She also looks completely naked.

    I think it takes a combination of raw power and fine control to make the population of New York [the planet?] bow down forever and ever while she looks so sexy and so nonchalant about it all.
    Could be, although they could also be just plain terrified of a pretty girl who can turn the city upside down.

    It's amusing. The regular X-Men all know what kind of power Gladiator has, but Jean doesn't. Probably best to keep it from going to her head.

    Let's keep it real here, Gladiator is considered powerful because he's a blatant Superman ripoff, not because anyone did anything particularly interesting with him. Ultimately he's a barrier to be overcome, nothing more.

    Then consider him "decisively" overcome

    If X-Men was a video game, Gladiator would be that boss you spend the first half of the game being afraid of. He'll will ultimately be beaten by a long, arduous, quasi-spiritual quest that seems difficult at the time, but once you get to the second half and the actual boss in retrospect he won't have been that big deal after all.
