Jean Grey: Phoenix Unleashed - Q&A
Who is Perrikus and why is he a threat?
Perrikus is a Dark God from the planet Narcisson. He's got superhuman strength, blasts energy, and wields a super-powerful scythe that can even slice Mjolnir in half! He's a serious pain in the neck. Remember that time he beat Thor? Yep, that's Perrikus. He's no joke, and he's out for blood.
How did Perrikus escape from prison?
Perrikus was locked up in Kyln-2, an intergalactic prison for some of the universe's worst criminals. This place is inside a black hole. Imagine how bad the criminals have to be! Anyway, the black hole was collapsing and Nova had his hands full trying to save everyone. Jean, as The Phoenix, could either stop Perrikus from escaping or try to save the prisoners. Guess who went free? Yep, Perrikus!
Why did Jean Grey let Perrikus escape?
Jean was in a tough spot, okay? She had to make a hard choice - save a bunch of prisoners or try to stop this bad guy from escaping. She chose the prison, which means Perrikus is now free to wreak havoc. It's a tough call, but it shows that even powerful heroes like Jean sometimes have to make tough decisions.
What are the consequences of Jean's decision?
Well, Adani, a young alien girl whose planet Jean saved, is now out for revenge. Perrikus killed her father, and she blames Jean for letting him escape. So now, Jean has to face the consequences of her actions. She's already dealt with the fallout from the Dark Phoenix Saga, and now she's got this new problem to deal with. It's going to be a bumpy ride for our girl Jean.
How did Perrikus defeat Thor?
Thor is one of the strongest beings in the Marvel Universe. But Perrikus managed to beat him with his scythe. He sliced Mjolnir in half, then hit Thor so hard he turned back into his human form. It was a crazy fight.
What can we expect to happen in the future?
Jean has to figure out how to deal with a vengeful Adani. Plus, Perrikus is out there, and he's a serious threat to the universe. Jean's got her work cut out for her.
