Jean Grey is turning into one of the best X-Men books in Marvel's arsenal, and the team continues to add layers to a character that has always been immensely powerful but at times lacked consistent characterization. That's certainly not the case here, and you're going to have quite the entertaining ride getting to know Jean Grey all over again. Read Full Review
Jean Grey #4 is Hopeless's modern day answer to the 80's "Karate Kid," where as a young woman has spent the majority of her life on the run. Realizing the climactic conflict is unavoidable, Thor takes on the role of Miyagi and teaches through self-awareness that no matter if you choose a hammer or the crane, the answer to survival is found within.

This comic has succeeded in focusing on Jeans personality and journey, despite the constant guest stars. This issue was a lot of fun and brings an oddly underused character back to the page (his status as an antagonist in Secret Empire notwithstanding). This is a great read and easily earns its recommendation. Read Full Review
JEAN GREY #4 is seriously entertaining and will only make you fall in love with our titular hero even more. Read Full Review
This is a good issue, but I want more out of this title than "good." Read Full Review
Wonderful issue!!
The Odinson turns an orc bar-brawl into a rather shallow lesson about flexibility in combat for Jean. There's a rollicking fun spirit to this casual fight, and Harvey Tolibao loads the art with impressive helpings of detail. Yet reading the script closely reveals a lot of unsatisfying glitches. Why doesn't the Odinson mention that he and Thor fought the Phoenix recently? The captions contradict the dialogue (and the art) about the setting - is this Jotunheim or Norway? We're not gonna go deeper than Jean's "Lord of the Rings rejects" snark about the fact that LotR orcs are Suddenly Just a Thing in the Marvel universe? And then once we're picking on nits, why do a solid 60% of Mr. Tolibao's faces fail to match up with the feelings suggested more
Worst issue so far, but I still like this series and its story. There were moments a little boring, and the art was meh. Jean as a character is the best of this series
Awfull !
