!!''Jean Grey'' provides examples of:
* BadassAndChildDuo: Jean is briefly this with [[ObfuscatingStupidity a seemingly absolutely]] [[StealthPun hammered]] Odinson when looking to learn about how to fight godlike beings.
* CivvieSpandex: Jean's costume, though she doesn't always wear the jacket.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Jean has shorter hair in this series, supposedly to distinct herself from her future self.
* HypocriticalHumor: When Jean finally meets Hope, both of them remark how they can't understand why some people consider them identical... while [[IdenticalStranger looking more or less identical]] and [[SpeakInUnison speaking in unison]].
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
** Unleashed one on Wolverine in ''Uncanny X-Men'' issue #100, after reaching the end of her tether with him. Worth bearing in mind this was pre-CharacterDevelopment Wolverine, and that it's only ''after'' this he starts having a crush on her.
** Older Jean gives a scathing one to her younger self in Issue 6.
-->'''Older Jean''': You have convinced yourself that I'm the ''nightmare.'' That my life - a life you've only glimpsed in other people's heads - was some kind of dark tragedy. Because there was pain. Because it ended in ''Death.'' Because that's not the life you envisioned for yourself. Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, princess, but that's just life. Grow up.
* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Jean discovers she can do this when fighting alongside the Odinson and being frustrated at the lack of a 'big frigging magic hammer'. When she accidentally creates a large Warhammer from her powers, in the same vein as Psylocke's psi-weapons, she asks, startled, what it is. Odinson replies [[DeadpanSnarker somewhat drily]] that it looks like 'a big frigging magic hammer.' She then gets tutelage in this from Betsy Braddock, an expert in the art.
* UnskilledButStrong: Jean's an extremely powerful telekinetic and telepath, but she has difficulty co-ordinating the two abilities in the heat of battle and sometimes thinks with her fists. Therefor, she goes to everyone (Namor, Odinson, and Psylocke, among others, though she also gets help from Doctor Strange - an attempted exorcism of the ghost of her adult self - and then, unwanted, her adult self who hangs around afterward) for tutelage and advice, and learns how to use her powers much more effectively.
