A preview released gives a pretty clear insight to this; after taking on such extreme amounts of cosmic threats, those politicians are worried! Even more significant – Gorr specifically arrives!  The preview focuses on those worried space-faring politicians, from the Galactic Council, mostly Gladiator who worries Jean's power may lead to problems. But that fear becomes a reality – and quickly, with the preview directly impacting and providing major implications and consequences!  Gorr's arrival showcases Jean's divine status– Gorr only targets, hunts down and murders gods who’ve apparently failed.

Why did Gorr go after Jean specifically? After all her feats— it suggests he had been tracking her after those immense displays of power. His presence highlights those really significant changes and the implications for her newly-found status as something much bigger than those earlier events indicated. This doesn’t simply mean a storyline adjustment! And its implications can really redefine just how powerful Jean Grey’s powers became and those very significant changes will completely reshape not only her place but the nature of how many other conflicts can now potentially unfold within this expansive Marvel setting!

Jean Grey’s Godly Deeds: From Dying Suns to Black Holes

This event was confirmed after many truly impressive moments highlighted in Phoenix #4. The Krakoa era ended with Jean playing an essential part in the Phoenix's rebirth; resulting in increased amounts of powers that were impossible even prior to that immense transformation!  She also wields an enormous amount of raw, cosmic energy that completely exceeds previously shown ability.

Jean’s abilities and the subsequent results created some epic cosmic saves and the resulting battles with immense cosmic foes. She halted a dying sun from exploding by absorbing all its energy. She beat Thanos's Black Order single-handedly (impressive!). And she totally stabilized a black hole to save various intergalactic prisoners.  Those are some Thor-level feats! These examples of Jean's achievements and victories further show the magnitude of this sudden change to the characters themselves! Those abilities demonstrate the intensity and truly enormous amounts of raw, unstoppable power she is capable of utilizing; that makes her place as something greater than her own humanity – and it demonstrates clearly just why she was seen by Gorr as a valid target. And that's important.  Those immense displays of powers didn't simply come out of nowhere.  It sets her apart; becoming worthy enough that even Gorr himself sees value in eliminating such power.

Even more surprising–  while fixing a black hole she freed that bad dude, Perrikus. That’s the key here! His alliance with Adani (someone blaming the Phoenix for her dad’s death, who now possesses those powers required to take on those deities!)  plus the Black Order to hunt Jean? That’s exactly the sort of threat typically reserved for beings like Thor— yet, the magnitude shows just how different those kinds of characters and circumstances had become! It establishes her importance in this larger setting; those really impressive victories shown against serious, enormous foes demonstrate that her position has completely changed; those high stakes moments, which completely redefine the setting of her story, and is a profound demonstration that the character upgrade also meant her place had been redefined; she wasn’t merely a mutant; her power levels had become impossible.
