    Default Jean Grey / Phoenix Appreciation 2023: “A Red Dragon”

    Happy New Year, everyone! This year, I thought it’d be fun to open this thread with some of our favorite moments from 2022. Here are my top 3 moments:

    Jean fully accepts her past as Dark Phoenix and becomes the chief executive officer of the Phoenix Foundation:



    Jean renounces her moniker and reclaims her birth name while cracking some bones, before taking down Cordyceps Jones:



    Jean takes down a Hex taller and wider than the Empire State Building. Aside from Exodus, who died in the process, she’s the only hero out of the Avengers, X-Men, and Eternals who achieved such a feat.



    Post your favorite moments! And may this year bring the best for us all, including Jean!

    Jean Grey in the words of Walt Whitman, from his masterpiece Leaves of Grass, "Song of Myself" (51 and 52):

    "Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)"

    "Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you."

    P.S. “A Red Dragon,” the subtitle to this thread, is how the Progenitor described Jean in this now iconic and pivotal scene:

    Happy New Year to all Jean fans.
    Al Ewing made Storm great again! Storm greatest challenge might not be a matter of destruction, but creation.

    That Celestial is kind of a douchebag. Isn't he the one that brought a plague to Earth over a million years ago in search of another infected Celestial? Who is he to judge Jean Grey for her actions as The Phoenix when he nearly brought his entire race to the brink of extinction and in turn nearly brought the entire universe to ruin?

    EDIT: Happy New Year!

    I think everyone has raised some interesting points, but we may all be off just a bit.

    Jean herself, like her history, is very complex, convoluted and a spectrum of different alignments.

    If anyone can solve the mystery and bring Mutantkind back from this verge of destruction, it is Jean Grey!
