Jean Grey/Marvel Girl/The Phoenix Appreciation

[mike7171]

Yup, just read X-Men Red 4.

Love this kind of control and precision from Jean. Again the control, calmness and composure. I'll stop now before I spoil it for everyone. I just wish, since this is a once a month comics, compare to others that's bi-weekly, at least make the contents twice as much. Oh well, as long as the quality and the art is this good, i don't mind the wait.

Oh as far as members when Taylor said there's gambit and "another one"...i like the "another one"!

Am excited for the annual that comes out in 2 weeks!

New here. Short Intro : Been a Jean Grey fan since the 90s. I dropped XMen when Jean was killed off in Grant Morrissons run, I was fuming at Joe Quesada. Fast forward, just started coming back last year, when I heard Jean came back (Teen), and now the real Jean. So am pretty excited.
With the way X-Men Red is going, i am curious as to whether Storm is the catalyst that forces the team to move to Atlantis. Since on Issue #1, Jean referred to Atlantis as the "place where hate can't reach you".
But as of the moment, am excited to where the story is going, specially this Jean and Storm face off.

Also, been lurking this conversation and saw some discussions on how our Adult Jean should be written etc. Just putting my 2 cents, I just want Jean written in a way where she is her own persona. Not the Phoenix Host, not Scott's Wife. And I want to her to progress on her own, being the first name-dropped as Omega Level Mutant, we owe it to her to give her the growth she truly needs. The way I looked at her in previous stories, she's been limiting herself for fear of losing herself because of her connection to the Phoenix. With the Phoenix gone, she can just push her limits and hopefully this brings out the true Omega level strenght of jean.

Anyway. Loving the confidence, the calmness she exudes under Taylor's hands.

Welcome Mike!

Red 4 was splendid as always. Looking forward to the series going forward.

Just read X-men Red #4 as well. Jean's presence in the world is still so refreshing. The X-books and the Marvel universe really needed her. I'm sure Jean fans don't need to be reminded of that, but that doesn't make X-men Red any less rewarding.

Got any brief spoilers? I've given up on gold so this is the only place I'll hear about it.

Red was good, if

edit: my spoiler tags don't seem to be working at the moment...

Jean's thinly veiled amusement at Laura geeking out over a mermaid (I didn't know Marvel had mermaids either, lol) was my favorite.
I knew these two connecting would be fun.

Sometimes i forget how screwed was Laura's childhood. This was a really cool moment.
