The X-Men are fighting someone dressed as a locust controlling giant bugs, because that is their life.

Narration: Suddenly, the resourceful Marvel Girl steps to the fore, and…

Marvel Girl: His antennae! It’s through them that he controls his creatures! If only I can…

Marvel Girl mentally twists his antennae.

Locust: So! In desperation, the female X-Men hurls herself against me! Do not think to stir my heart to mercy! For still I order my giant subjects to destroy all of you! But…they are lumbering towards me! Stop! I, your ruler, command you to stop!

The giant beetles continue to lumber towards him.

Locust: It…it’s impossible! Both of my insect creations are attacking me! But I can yet escape! In my mobile lab…is an antidote which will make them small again.

Cylcops: Great work, Jean. He didn’t see you telekinetically knotting his antennae!

Uncanny X-Men 24

Marvel Girl, floating in midair, catches a heavy projectile with her mind - but her book falls to the floor.

Marvel Girl: Don’t worry! I’ll change its direction telekinetically! But wouldn’t you know it? I lost my page!

Uncanny X-Men 19

Jean has priorities, okay.

Three of the X-Men are surrounded by flames!

Marvel Girl: Cyclops is right! Angel, you can fly over the flames while I use my telekinesis to levitate Scott over them!

Angel: No! Then you’ll be trapped! I’ll wait here and carry you over, as soon as Cyke is clear!

Cyclops: Angel’s right! It’s the only way! Hurry, Jean! We’ve got to rejoin Hank and Bobby!

In Uncanny X-Men 16, Jean helps Angel and Cyclops with no thought to her own safety. 

Also, everyone is right!

ART: A black and white illustration of Jean in her third Marvel Girl costume. She’s grinning, holding her arms out and bending her knee up. On the wall behind her are two pictures: the original five X-Men, in their costumes and casual clothes.

I like donuts and I like Jean and Scott.  :3

ART: A black and white sketch of Jean as Marvel Girl in her first costume. Her hands are flung out in front of her, fingers bent. Her teeth are grit with concentration, eyes glowing with power.

Sketch of the Day, Marvel Girl! Another Marvel character sketch

ART: Two black and white illustrations of Jean.

In the first, she’s in her blue and gold costume. Her eyes are closed, hand lifted to her forehead as it glows with power.

In the second, she’s Phoenix. She’s stepping forward, sash swirling around her, a bird of fire hovering in her hand.

Jean Grey commissions

Jean stands amidst the smoke and debris, hands on her hips.

Jean: You think you can take me down that easily? Think again, whoever you are! Where are my friends? I swear, if you’ve harmed them…

 It’s The Thought That Counts

Jean is confronted by a giant metal robot.

Jean: Think fast, Jean. The missiles! Just get out of the way and direct them at the robot…

She does, and the robot explodes.
