Jean can direct her telekinetic energy from her head and her hands and has done so since the 60s. It’s not her fault that this blueprint is more versatile than her adapted version aka MCU Wanda.
Jean Grey has always projected her psychic energy with her hands and we all know exactly where MCU Wanda’s powers and this visual manifestation come from.
You missed a lot of Jean Grey projects, and even what I listed are not all of them. Besides an Omnibus, she also has a handbook and a book dedicated to collecting interviews. No Marvel woman is qualified to compare with her.
@ChimGAT In terms of iconicity, it’s Jean and Storm.
In terms of popularity, it’s Jean and Wanda.
In terms of power, it’s Jean.
In terms of promotion, it’s Carol.
In terms of age, it’s Sue.
Overall, Jean comes out on top.
Hot take:
Jean Grey is one of the worst written characters in (mainstream) comics.
And before people start with their bullshit, what's interesting about her that doesn't involve the Phoenix.
@KOAYS@psynymph@jk_tidwell The fandom that actually has the problem you’re describing is the Storm fandom. Jean is precisely the victim of this kind of toxic mentality.
@KOAYS@psynymph@jk_tidwell In fact, ever since Jean was resurrected in 2018, Storm stans have been the ones who, for the exact reasons you mentioned, felt threatened and started attacking Jean.
@KOAYS@psynymph@jk_tidwell Your behavior of trying to demonize the Jean fandom is really weird. I’ve already made it very clear: conflicts between the Jean fandom and other fandoms are almost always just defensive counterattacks after being attacked first.
@KOAYS@psynymph@jk_tidwell It wasn’t until a little over a year ago that Jean stans finally had enough and openly declared war on Storm stans. After that, the targeted attacks on Jean from Storm stans actually decreased noticeably.
