Years ago I might have agreed but then I read Ed Brubaker's Captain America run. It really helped me appreciate Steve Rogers as a character. There is grit to him. And a kind of world-weariness that would be a good contrast to Jean's, occasional star-eyes. And to be fair, I don't think Jean's relationship with Cyclops, counts as Iconic anymore. And hey, maybe Jean could be his Iconic romance?!?!Captain America is boring with not much personality. Ive never seen him have romantic chemistry with anyone and I dont see that changing with Jean. He comes across more asexual to me. His most significant pairing is whom, Sharon Carter? Even that never set the world on fire and is on anyone's radar as one of the most iconic Marvel couple
Ick, I like Namor as a friend but NOT as a love interest. Emma likes Jean's scraps, not vice versa. I could totally get on board with a Thor/Jean liaison though.personally if marvel isn't going to pair her with Logan (i'm neutral with the ship but now is the best time to do it without drama) then i would like something with Namor or Thor. I know it maybe wont last or be serious but it could be fun.
Very much this. And I also think Jean is very good at getting people to get carried away with her. When she lets herself be care-free, even during short lived, down time issues, she can be silly and infectious. I could see that mixing well with Steve Rogers.I think he has little baggage and a cleaner love life, making him a good candidate.
