First appearance and origin of Phoenix
Label: universal

Publisher: Marvel Comics
Page Quality: white pages

  • Notes: This comic marks the debut of one of the most powerful forces in Marvel Comics, mutant Jean Gray as The Phoenix. Gray is piloting a spacecraft with the other X-Men when a solar flare forces the craft to loose control and hurdle towards the earth. Crashing into the sea, Jean Gray rises from the waves as a new force of energy, the Phoenix. This is also the first issue where Wolverine proclaims his romantic feelings for Jean. Jean's connection to the Phoenix force would result in the penultimate story arc The Dark Phoenix.

    "Hear me, X-Men! No longer am I the woman you knew! I am fire! And life incarnate! Now and forever -- I am PHOENIX!"
