I did the pencil work on this drawing and friend and fellow artist Zane Fannin did the inking and color with markers. He said this is his favorite Jean Grey/Marvel Girl costume. I have to agree. Especially when rendered by the great Neal Adams, who made such an impact on comics and comic book art, and in particular on the original X-Men. I should give credit to Werner Roth for creating the X-Men's individual outfits in 1967. I own the Essentials reprint book of the Roy Thomas/Neal Adams/Tom Palmer X-Men run and it's a joy to re-read and adsorb that art over and over again. In all the decades of X-Men comics, there are a few runs that still get talked about. John Byrne even did an entire series (X-Men: The Hidden Years) inspired by these issues.
Jean and Scott. Marvel Girl and Cyclops. A Marvel super couple!
