Crudely referring to women by their body parts = not cool.
Sure, Phoenix needed to pay, but arguably Jean Grey wasn't in her right mind, literally, so I could have bought a redemption story. I'd be more impressed with Marvel/Shooter's moral stance on mass murder if there weren't so many other characters in the Marvel Universe who have gotten away with mass murder.*
For certain, though, I hated the "reboot" where Jean Grey got resurrected. "Oh, gosh, she was never really the Phoenix in the first place!"
* Unrelated rant: Dr. Doom shedding a tear over the victims of 9/11. Are you fucking kidding me?
