Reviews

"John H's 'Phoenix--The First X-Woman' is a fantastic page filled with information on Jean Grey, The Phoenix. It has tons of never before seen on the net pictures of Phoenix, Cyclops, Wolverine, and many other friends and enemies of Phoenix. The Memorable Moments section recaps important events in Jean's life. It features moments such as Jean's arrival to the X-Men, her sacrifice on the moon, her proposal to Scott, and her discovery of Onslaught. There are also many Phoenix quotes, a whole section based on the Phoenix Force, Fan-Fiction, and many other interesting things to see."
