Phoenix #3 asks the question: "What does God's judgement look like?" There is no one answer, but the ones that are presented showcase that the creative team is more than willing to tackle some big ideas. Phoenix willing, readers and X-Men fans are willing to give them the space to do just that. Read Full Review

Phoenix #3 by far does the best job of showing the range Jean Grey has from powers to personality. Read Full Review

Its the third issue in and Phillips and Miracolo are still trying to determine who Jean is in the cosmic firmament. Unfortunately shes just a cosmic powerhouse who isnt bringing any of the nuances regarding Jeans personality, or her mutation. This story could literally be told about almost anyone in Marvels cosmic firmament, and its this disassociation thats leaving me wanting more. Read Full Review

Cover Art Worth Collecting
Every issue's cover is a piece of art. Bold, evocative, and thematic—these covers are clearly designed with care. They capture the spirit of the story without giving too much away. You’ll want to frame them, not just bag them.

"Cinematic and immersive."
This comic feels like watching a high-budget animated film. The dynamic angles and lighting make every scene come alive.

The art is better than the previous issue which definitely enhances the already stellar story from writer, Stephanie. This issue sets the stage to the exciting upcoming match up between Phoenix and Thanos. This series is still one of the best from the ongoing X-Men relaunch lines.

Much better than the first two issues in my opinion. The art and writing both leveled up a bit. I enjoyed the interactions between Jean and Corsair, though Corsair seemed to be portrayed as a bit more cowardly and comical than I remember him usually being. This issue seemed to redirect the series to trend upwards, so I'm hoping it continues this trend. I'd love an ongoing Phoenix book that is actually done well.

An improvement over the last issue, in my opinion. I'm glad to see the, respective, stories of Jean and Adani connecting more here. The latter's character is definitely intriguing, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. Aside from that, I enjoyed the way Jean was written here.

Maybe the best of the series so far? But sadly that’s not saying much. This is a very shallow book in the sense that it’s not building on Jean’s post-Krakoan growth nor is it creating much tension for her. Hopefully the arrival of Thanos changes that.
