Notes:

Jean Grey was replaced by the Phoenix Force entity in X-Men (1st series) #101, who then seemingly died as Dark Phoenix in #137. The real Jean returned in Avengers #263 and Fantastic Four #286, returning to life as Marvel Girl in X-Factor (1st series) #1. She abandoned any codename for a time in X-Men (2nd series) #1. Jean posed as "Redd Dayspring" in Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix #1, and first assumed the mantle of Phoenix in #4.

Jean Grey has absorbed the memories of Madelyne Pryor and the Phoenix Force when it was posing as her during Inferno. Many of these memories still remain within her consciousness.

Jean began to manifest the power of the Phoenix Force, eventually becoming its full avatar before her death in New X-Men (1st series) #150. She returned to life in Phoenix Resurrection: The Return of Jean Grey #1-5, severing her ties to the Phoenix in the process.

Marvel Girl II is Valeria von Doom, III is Rachel Grey / Summers, Phoenix I is Baron Zemo.

GREY, JEAN (AoA), MARVEL GIRL (Ultimate), MARVEL GIRL (O5) and SHADOW MARVEL GIRL.
