Jean Grey is one of the most popular X-Men characters and as such has appeared in many different media versions of X-Men.
She began as Marvel Girl and became a profoundly popular character when she sacrificed herself to save her friends and rose again as Phoenix.
One of her most defining stories, the Dark Phoenix Saga, is considered by many to be one of the best comic book storylines ever.
In recent years, Jean Grey was an important character in Grant Morrison's critically acclaimed New X-Men run (2001-2004) and was featured in a Sold Out mini series Phoenix Endsong (2005).
However, both New X-Men and Phoenix Endsong left Jean Grey aka Phoenix dead or in a state of limbo. We feel it is time for Phoenix to return.
Jean Grey is usually at the emotional center of the X-Men as she has close bonds to many of the characters. She is Cyclop's former wife, like a daughter to Xavier, a kindred spirit to Wolverine, and genetic 'mother' to various characters.
With her awesome telepathy and telekinesis and inspiring Phoenix imagery, Jean Grey is the powerful and beautiful girl next door. Her connection to the transcendent Phoenix also makes her an archetype appealing to many. Being both human and a goddess, Jean's duality of compassion and fiery passion makes her a fascinating character.
