Top Ten Jean Grey Covers of all time
10. X-men Forever # 3
Jean relives important key moments in her life while at the same time re-bonding with the Phoenix force. The cover depicts Jean in her Revolution era costume, which was extremely short lived and forgotten by most fans. Prior to this costume, Jean had been wearing her traditional green Phoenix costume and calling herself Phoenix.
Awesome Black Queen

Okay, I know I posted a similar Black Qeeen image not too long ago, but I’m having fun with the blog post feature at Flickr.com. And, come on, this is a great pose and excellent costume. I can live with THIS Black Queen reigning.
Jean Grey as a Mommy
Marvel Girl leads a little Phoenix and miniature Wolverine. Ah, if only my family had been so devoted to the X-men lifestyle. Of course my crush on Jean Grey would be even creepier if Mom or my sister was involved.
Jean Grey Statue to Rock Your World
The Sideshow collectables team has just given every reason to make Jean Grey fans rise from the ashes of despair. Coming the first quarter of 2009, a beautiful 13-inch Jean Grey statue decked out in her ‘90s outfit. That’s right I said “‘90s outfit.”
From Sideshow’s official site:
“Sideshow Collectibles is proud to present the outstanding Marvel statues and busts created by Bowen Designs. These high-quality polystone, detailed collectibles feature your favorite Marvel characters as they appear in a wide range of comics.The Jean Grey Statue stands over 13-inches high. This intricately sculpted statue is cast in high-quality polystone, a great addition to any Marvel collection!”
In the past, our favorite fiery red head has been known to wear a variety of costumes. However, only the ‘90s outfit created by Jim Lee has held such a strong hallmark in the heart of Jean fans due to her heavy exposure in the X-men Animated Series or aka the Golden era of Jean Grey-Summers.
Fans would note that Jean in her ‘90s outfit is a rare commodity. Most statues and busts done in Jean’s likeness have solely been in her vintage outfits, dark or green Phoenix uniforms, or alternatives such as the New X-men suite or Black Queen costume. This statue marks the début of Jean in her ‘90s outfit and if you can’t stop staring at it, there must be something wrong with you!
My original thought when I saw this statue was YES! Sideshow gets the character of Jean—they understand who she actually is and aren’t trying to impose an image on her like they did with their Emma Frost statue last year (whose face looked so realistic it was almost generic).
You’ll note that Sideshows has released a variety of other X-characters in their previous line, most notably their X-men vs. Sentinel Diorama which consisted of the Astonishing X-men battling sentinels. Although the price tag was a bit high (with each statue being roughly around 300s), Sideshow was able to capture the essence of the X-men. My only complaint is that I would preferred a fiery telekensis energy instead of pink energy. But beggars can’t be choosers, and I’ve already pre-ordered mine and so should you.

Jean Grey in Top 10 Female Hotness in Spandex
While I certainly agree Jean Grey should be on this list I am disappointed in a #3 ranking. Hop on over to Hot Females in Spandex to read the entire list.
Jean Grey: Quantum Physics in Leather. Movies: X-Men series. Actress: Famke Janssen
Jean Grey is limitless power and as much as I telekinesis the saint aspect of her personality is not that compelling. However when the Phoenix came into the game and suddenly Jean Grey was all red and pyrokinetic, I was ecstatic, because Jean killed around five billion people in the comic book, while in the movie she turned schizophrenic and joined Magneto. I fancy heroes turning villains and thanks to the CGI team Famke aced the transformation and did unspeakable things. For this third place is secured for her. The red leather outfit couldn’t replace the missing flames in the movies, but gave the much needed villain aura.
