A story that spans that many comic book issues is nearly impossible to tell in a single movie, but that hasn’t stopped Hollywood from trying … twice.
While this adaptation features more elements from the comics than 2006’s “X-Men: The Last Stand,” neither did the original story justice.The arc that has come to be known as “The Dark Phoenix Saga,” by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, spans “X-Men” Nos. 129-138. The first half of the story pits the X-Men against the Inner Circle — leaders of a group called the Hellfire Club — who seek to manipulate the powerful Phoenix for their own agenda.
“The Dark Phoenix Saga” ends with Jean realizing that as long as Phoenix is within her, becoming Dark Phoenix is inevitable. So she uses Phoenix’s power to save the universe from herself. After dying to rescue her friends by piloting a shuttle through cosmic radiation, Jean is immediately reborn with new cosmic powers.most powerful being. During Claremont, Dave Cockrum and Byrne’s “Phoenix Saga” , Jean as Phoenix wields her powers to save the universe from an armageddon initiated by the ruler of a huge space empire.
“The Last Stand” at least had two prior films featuring Famke Janssen’s Jean Grey as a more central part of the X-team. But the Phoenix arc was still shortchanged by becoming one of several story lines in a single film. And neither attempt bothered to dig into Jean’s transformation into Phoenix before she goes all dark.
