Comic Book Jean Grey
I think I mentioned in a previous tribute that I did for her that Jean winds up wearing a variety of sexy costumes throughout her career as an X-men team member (and occasional villainess). The comics in particular give her a wide range of hot outfits to confront her opponents in.
The purple top costume below is one of her newer costumes that I haven't seen adapted into any of the animated versions of the series yet.
There are a couple of nice foot scenes involving Jean while she is wearing that costume though. ^_^
I've been trying to find a larger image of the above picture but I haven't had much luck. Does anyone know which issue it is from?
Ed Benes' artwork is always jaw dropping. ^_^
In the comics and the Wolverine and the X-men series Jean and Emma are involved in a love triangle with Cyclops. Naturally, we get treated to a couple of psychic catfights between the pair of them. ^_^
Slipped in another Christmas stocking present for you guys. ;-)
The Yellow and blue costume (above) was a 90's costume Jean wore designed by Jim who also designed Wonder Woman's current outfit. I like this one a lot better.
The above green and gold motif is Jean's Phoenix costume. The are a lot of variations of this outfit. One of the really popular ones is the green being replaced by red for her Dark Phoenix outfit. There is also a white version of this costume too. ^_^
Not featured in this post but one of my favorite outfits involving her is Jean Grey's Black Queen costume aka her dominatrix outfit. As far as I know Jean doesn't go barefoot while wearing it but I did find a really nice picture on Deviant Art here: http://urrgos.deviantart.com/art/Black-Queen-Jean-Grey-151899752
Ok Moving along the next incarnation up is...
X-men Cartoon Jean Grey
The X-men cartoon series of the 90's was my first exposure to the X-men characters. Because of that it would always have a special place in my heart. Its version of Jean Grey is definitely my favorite. Not only do I really love its animation and character designs but this series had the longest run of any of the X-men television allowing it to cover Jean's storylines more thoroughly. The downside of the series is that there weren't many barefoot moments involving Jean. We do get a little bit of a glimpse of her feet in the Dark Phoenix saga though which I posted below...
I'm working on a new column called Good Girls Gone Bad highlighting some heroines villainess turns that I'm hoping to incorporate into this blog next year. Jean's stint as the dark Phoenix would definitely deserve a mention in it. ^_^
Anyway, the next incarnation up is...
X-men Evolution Jean
The X-men Evolution series which ran from 2000-2003 easily has the best Jean Grey foot scenes in it. ^_^ Not only does the character's casual outfit depict her wearing sandals but it also give her the best barefoot close ups too. In addition to that, this version of Jean is on the soccer team. ^_^
Wolverine and The X-men
I recently marathon watched this series after getting some of the caps from episode 5 for the Emma Frost Christmas bonus. It was intense. I really love its animation. It sort of has a nice cross between western and Japanese animation thing going for it. The storylines were exciting as well. However I was crushed to see Jean disappear in the first episode. As she remained absent for most of the series, I began clicking my tongue thinking that the chances of seeing this version of Jean barefoot was becoming increasingly unlikely (a total shame because she was really hot too). But luckily to my pleasant surprise, she reappeared in the final arc of the series and gives us some nice barefoot scenes. :-D
(Ok a lot of credits with this post guys. First off all of the comic book pictures are webfinds that I either found on Comic Vine or by googling Jean on the internet. There are also three sets of animated caps involved in this post. The first of them are from the 90's Animated X-men Cartoon series episode the Dark Phoenix Saga part 1: Shattered. The second are from the X-men Evolution episodes Mindbender and Shadowed past and the last set is from the Wolverine and the X-men 3 part conclusion Foresight. Massive thank yous to Juancho for confirming Jean Grey's Dark Phoenix Saga barefoot moments as well as David and Mask Greene (who also did his own excellent post involving Jean Grey) for tipping me off to Jean's X-men evolution scenes. Thanks guys!!)
