Jean Grey is seen in the midst of a fight, standing atop the projected sentinel Nimrod. She twists and rips it apart with her power as she launches an attack with her right. Pink tendrils of her telekinetic power rise from the base and trace around the decapitated arm. Collectors can choose between 2 head sculpts switch-outs – one displaying Jean Grey looking determined while using her telekinetic power, and one displaying Jean Grey with a steely look.
Jean Grey debuted under the codename Marvel Girl in The X-Men #1 (September 1963), created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby. The original team’s sole female member, Marvel Girl was a regular part of the team through the series’ publication. Initially possessing the ability of telekinesis, the character was later granted the power of telepathy,[4] which would be retconned years later as a suppressed mutant ability.
XM Studios Jean Grey 1/4 Statue Premium Collectibles – Under the authorship of Chris Claremont and the artwork of first Dave Cockrum and then John Byrne in the late 1970s, Jean Grey underwent a significant transformation from the X-Men’s weakest member,to its most powerful.
The first comic Claremont saw at Marvel after coming there in 1969 was the first X-Men issue penciled by Neal Adams (issue 56), after which he became enamored of Jean Grey. But when he started to write X-Men in issue 94, the first issue after the creation of the new team in Giant-Size X-Men 1, Len Wein had already established that she was leaving the team.
XM Studios Jean Grey 1/4 Statue Premium Collectibles – The artwork was already done, and it was too late to change. But he promised himself he would bring her back as soon as possible, which he did in issue 97 when he became the sole writer of the title. Claremont also decided to upgrade her powers significantly.

The storyline in which Jean Grey died as Marvel Girl and was reborn as Phoenix (The Uncanny X-Men #101–108, 1976–1977) has been retroactively dubbed by fans “The Phoenix Saga”, and the storyline of her eventual corruption and death as Dark Phoenix (The Uncanny X-Men #129–138, 1980) has been termed “The Dark Phoenix Saga”. This storyline is one of the most well-known and heavily referenced in mainstream American superhero comics, and is widely considered a classic, including Jean Grey’s suicidal sacrifice.
When the first trade paperback of “The Dark Phoenix Saga” was published in 1984, Marvel also published a 48-page special issue titled Phoenix: The Untold Story. It contained the original version of The Uncanny X-Men #137, the original splash page for The Uncanny X-Men #138, and transcripts of a roundtable discussion between Shooter, Claremont, Byrne, editors Jim Salicrup and Louise Jones, and inker Terry Austin about the creation of the new Phoenix persona, the development of the story, and what led to its eventual change, and Claremont and Byrne’s plans for Jean Grey had she survived.
