Anywho, back on track again with things :) Sorry for the hiatus last week, as I said before reading week was a bit crazy so I didnt have time to feature two ladies. But this week we're back on track and the two ladies of the week are: Devin Grayson and Sarah Byam!!!
The superhero featured this week is JEAN GREY! Also known as Jean Grey-Summers, Marvel Girl, Phoenix and Dark Phoenix. Jean was one of the five original X-Men characters when the comic came out in 1963. She is a powerful mutant, as Jean and even moreso when she becomes Phoenix. She has telekentic and telepathic powers. I actually just read her 'death', or you could say rebirth, in X-Men Vignettes. During a mission in space the X-Men faced death as they had problems re-entering Earth. Jean gave her life to save her friends and her husband. The solar radition practically killed her, but she held on with her willpower for moments after. This is when the cosmic entity Phoenix took Jean’s form and life while allowing her original body to heal, and well...during this time Phoenix went crazy with power, killed many and really screwed with Scott and the rest of the X-Men's minds. But you know, she came back eventually, lol. All in all, Jean was always one of my favourites growing up. While watching the old X-Men cartoons in the 90's I always loved her abilities and her and Scott's relationship...and well Wolverine and how he liked her. Jean is powerful, smart and well, pretty bad ass :)
