We had a really great thread about Jean the other day, that's make another and keep it rolling.

How in your kind (other than killing her) can Marvel Comics redeem her character? Sadly, with Jimmy joining the new O5 team Marvel is going back to the rehashed Jean-Scott-Wolverine love triangle.

No Phoenix shit. No crazy inter-X-Men drama.

Just have Jean tackling villains on her own. That's all.
>>
>>92687684
This. I'm sick of Phoenix. It's almost like none of the writers can write about Jean without Phoenix.
>>
>>92687703

Seriously. Can't we just have a three-issue arc where Jean investigates someone transmitting nightmares into children and causing them to commit crimes in their sleep? Something that ties into her psychic powers.

That's all. Quick story arcs to establish the character outside of her usual role as source of interpersonal relationship drama.
>>
Honestly her being bi and carrying on a relationship with someone like Emma would be hot as fuck.

Jean and Emma or Jean and Dazzler. Book it.

What's her character oustide the pheonix?

>>92687812
That's the thing, they could create her a new character without the Phoenix but they don't. They have to keep going back to that dry well.

Have time-displaced young O5 Jean kill White Phoenix of the Crown actual Jean and definitively destroy the Phoenix forever.

It's shit it sucks everyone hates it.
>>
I don't really know how you'd fix her, cause that would imply you can fix anything in the utter clusterfuck that is the X-Men. Marvel has fucked them into oblivion.

The only idea I can offer is a comparison to a similar character. Saturn Girl is basically proto-Jean, but largely lacking all the bullshit. For one thing, she is always forced to deal with the consequences of her telepathic shenanigans, for which she herself has a strong moral code. Imra's most common conflict, therefore, is the balance of her morals against her sense of pragmatism. So I suppose that could be a good place start with making Jean less of a pain in the ass?

And before you start, this is ain't no company wars shit, merely a friendly suggestion from inside a glass house. Trust me, as a LoSH-fag, I can definitely sympathize with an X-fag's plight.

“I’m really excited to see this character become part of the team,” Senior Editor Mark Paniccia tells ComicBook.com in a statement. “Aside from the fact that he is a kindred spirit…displaced as the Original X-Men are…he’ll also feed into some themes X-Men fans are very familiar with. Like the original Wolverine, Jimmy doesn’t remember his past. And like the original Wolverine, he’s going to find a certain red head very attractive. Will this cause problems with Cyclops? Heheh. Just have to wait and see.”

In some ways she's the same character as the Scarlet Witch, who was created as her counterpart on the Brotherhood:

- Passive powers, "ladylike" powers that never require her to look less than pretty
- Has endless romantic complications with the team's resident brooding angsty guy
- Everyone on the team falls in love with her so there can be triangles

She's basically a romance character like a lot of the early Marvel Silver Age heroines.

>>92689958

In both cases, their fans don't seem to like, or want the triangles, yet most writers can't quit going back to them.
>>
Well, first off they need to stop using her as a vehicle for trashing Tyclops. They need to seperate the two of them completely. Different books different love interests. Period.
>>
Have her get more & more relaxed & ok with using her telepathic powers on people until it gets to the point anytime someone does something she doesn't like she inflects psychic goblin nightmares on them, she goes completely evil & crazy changes her name to Maddy & have becomes the new Goblin Queen

So, Marvel cannot write a Jean story without using the Phoenix and/or Scott-Logan love rivals. So all Jean stories are just retellings over and over.
>>
>>92693017
Did they kill them off just so they could rehash past stories? It'd be funny if Jimmy and Scott told Jean to fuck off and took over her book.

That's a tough sell since no one cares about her outside Phoenix. You'd be better off doing that story with Emma.

>>
>>92692571

>>92692914

I don't think anyone likes the triangle itself, but there are more Wolverine fans than there are Jean fans or Cyclops fans put together, so they get pandered to with love-triangle plots.

This doesn't explain why Fantastic Four keeps doing the Reed/Sue/Namor triangle, or Avengers keeps doing the Vision/Wanda/Wonderman triangle, because Namor and Wonderman are nowhere near that popular.

Marvel just keeps employing writers who are creatively bankrupt, have a cuckold-fetish, or can't even understand the appeal of characters in a stable, loving, happy marriage.
>>
>>92694769

That's not true, her fans have always been divided between those who want her as Phoenix, and those who don't, and the Jean Threads on /co/ seem to have very few anons who want Phoenix.

Anyone who started reading before Claremont, or between X-Factor #1 and before the Morrison run, is likely more used to Jean not being Phoenix.

It's not an issue of "what fans want", it's an issue of "Marvel hiring writers who just keep repeating the same old storylines".
>>
>>92696869
House of ideas. Hoping for a rehash of Teen Jean death.
>>
>>92694039

Instead of "age her up", let's send the teen O5 back in time, and then bring back the real Scott, Jean, Wolverine, Xavier, and Iceman.
>>
>>92697525
I love Jean, I love Phoenix. I love Phonnix from the 80s, during stories that really had weight and mean someone.

When you use the Phoenix time and time and time again. It's like, "who even cares about the Phoenix anymore. It's gotta come back in 2 years". I lose all interest, they add nothing new. Cyclops and the Phoenix egg was interesting and was well built then they blew their load and wasted it.
>>
>>92689710
>not the bottoms
That literally never happens in comics
>>
>>92697525
Sure, anon. I've seen no one care about Jean outside the phoenix shit. Also

>before Claremont

No one cared about X-Men back then, and even less about Jean. And the only things people cared about from the first X-factor run was Archangel and Apocalypse.
>>
>>92698928
>And the only things people cared about from the first X-factor run was Archangel and Apocalypse.

That's not true, people cared about Jean being back, they cared about Cyclops' marriage ending, they cared about Beast not being a furry anymore, and they cared about the original "mutant hunters" plot.

A lot of that caring was expressed through REEEEEEEing, but it's still caring.

There was a vocal contingent of Silver Age X-Men fans who never warmed to the reboot and hated the whole Dark Phoenix story because they loved OG Jean.

Kurt Busiek is the best known of these because he came up with the "Jean wasn't really Phoenix" retcon that brought her back, but there were a bunch of others. X-Factor existed because of original X-Men fans who never accepted the reboot.

Except she traumatized an innocent bystander with mental rape, after she caused a car to ram through the poor girl's house.

Jean is nothing but death and destruction. She blows up solar systems to masturbate. She violates the mental privacy of others, while she herself dislikes the invasion of mental privacy.

She blows up solar systems to achieve estrus, and bitches to her husband about his inability to get it up during sex.

Jean is canonically interested in three things: sex, mental rape, and getting sexual satisfaction from death.
