Quote:
Well, don't forget that Jean was on the second X-Men team as well, dragonfire.  X-Men became a hit during Jean's Phoenix period. The original X-Men team wasn't that successful because they were a bit bland and looked too much like the FF. So they stopped wearing matching outfits and began having signature outfits like The Avengers. Oh, and they added all the new characters. |
Jean was only in the new team for short while, then she was replaced with Phoenix, and she was gone in a few years too. For most of the '80s Jean was not a member of the team and that was when the team as at its best.
