The artwork is simply stunning! Throughout Phoenix #5, each panel feels larger than life. The artwork of the Phoenix run has been beautiful but I would say this issue is the best of the run so far. Without giving too much away, the first few pages are feasts for the eyes. Once you pick up the comic and start reading you'll see why I say that. Another home run for the artists! Read Full Review
Stephanie Phillips has really nailed the pacing for the latest Jean Grey series. Phoenix #5 is an excellent example of that as the scale of the story is appropriately larger than life. Read Full Review
Phoenix #5 continues to solidify its place as one of the best X-Men books on the stands, putting Jean Grey in a new position and giving her new threats to face. It's no easy task to push a character forward, but Phillips and Miracolo are succeeding on every level. Read Full Review
It’s exciting to finally see Jean’s rich history continue to flourish. This time in a cosmic saga. The way that Claremont envisioned her journey as Phoenix to be. This series has been consistent with the storytelling and character development. I’m excited to see where it continues to take us. Seeing Jean explore her powers and the cosmos all by herself has been refreshing. I would love to see it be drawn by Russell Dauterman, R.B. Silva or Pepe Larraz. Please Marvel… make that happen.
