Jean Grey, one of the founding members of the X-Men, gets a dark update regarding her beginning story and connection to the Phoenix Force. As the X-Men continue to rise "From the Ashes" of Krakoa following the finish of that era and the birth of a modern one, Jean Grey is experiencing her own revamp as the telepath fully embraces and embodies the Phoenix unit for a God-tier rebirth.
Phoenix #1 – written by Stephanie Phillips, with art by Alessandro Miracolo delves deeper into what the cosmic cycle of death and rebirth means for original X-Men member Jean Grey. The issue depicts how Jean Grey and the Phoenix Force itself recall their first gathering together; interestingly, Jean's side of the initial encounter shows her viewing it as a mysterious moment, one that redefines the manifestation of her powers as something she had to overcome.

When I heard that the final film in the X-Men franchise would revolve around the character of Dark Phoenix, I was puzzled. Didn&#;t she hold an entire film loyal to her character arc in X-Men: The Last Stand (XTLS) in ?
Apparently, writer-director Simon Kinberg wants to redeem himself after screwing up the story in XTLS by rebooting a character he has admitted ishis favourite. As the co-writer for XTLS, together with Zak Penn, Kinberg claimed to have been unhappy that Jean Grey took a backseat to the mutant cure plot and this time, he wants to make a movie &#;where Jean is a hero and the villain and the focus the motion picture, where you really got into the moral, heartfelt, psychological complexity of what&#;s happened to her character&#;.
Has Kinberg developed amnesia? Jean Grey was most assuredly both hero and villain in the first X-Men trilogy. And, despite what the critics said, I found XLTS a decent X-Men film — at least it adequately explored the heroism of one of the most mighty beings in the Marvel universe and the conflicts that shaped her.

Jean Grey's History With Death, Resurrection and the Phoenix Force, Explained
More than any superhero team in comic books, the X-Men are intimately acquainted with the notion of death. Many of their members have died and been brought back to life, including the group's founder, Charles Xavier. No mutant is more frequently killed and resurrected than Jean Grey. Also known as Marvel Girl, Phoenix and Dark Phoenix, she's risen from the ashes just like the cosmic wings that gave her that name.
Jean Grey's many deaths aren't as cut and dry as some fans might have believed. In fact, her initial demises were essentially fake-outs. The same is arguably the case with Jean during the X-Men's most recent era when death was an empty concept. Before this became the case on Krakoa, Jean Grey proved that death was only the beginning.

For decades, Jean Grey has been X-Men's greatest powerhouse - but now she's ascended to literal godhood. As part of Marvel's new 'From the Ashes' era, Jean is exploring space while coming to terms with her incredible power. Now, the Phoenix's cosmic journey has brought her to the attention of the one villain who will never suffer a god to live - Gorr the God Butcher.
In a preview of Phoenix #4 by the creative team of Stephanie Phillips, Alessandra Miracolo, David Curiel, and Cory Petit, Jean Grey's conduct have drawn the attention of the Galactic Council. Specifically, Gladiator of the Shi'ar Empire, who expresses great concern that Jean will eventually lose govern of her immense power.
While Gladiator doesn't get much support from the linger of the Council, there is little doubt that the outcome of this meeting is what will put Gorr on Jean Grey's trail. Gorr is a dedicated villain who targets and kills gods after his own deity failed to save his
