Description This started out as something (and someone) totally different. but as I built up the pose I started to think that it was perfect for the Phoenix/Jean Grey. I did a bit of reading around the character and discovered a tragic life-death-life-death story on a galactic scale.

It was then going to be Dark Phoenix. But I thought it would tell more of the story to portray her as Jean Grey: some-one who has tried and failed to control powers that can destroy whole galaxies.

this just made me imagine an interesting concept: Phoenix, Herald of Galactus
Powers aside (and my gawd, the power), what would she look like?

funnily enough, the thought did briefly cross my mind too while I was doing this...I guess because of all the interstellar space around her.. yes it is a frightening concept, and definitely would make an interesting story...both in terms of how that situation could arise, as well as what would be the outcome..

Thank-you very much. I thought it would be a good way to show the scale of powers she is trying to control.....
