“People Wonder Why”

Story

Just before curfew, Jean Grey visits Hank's dorm room in Rainbow Rowell’s story. While Bobby listens to albums on his portable record player and Warren flies above the beds, Hank paws through his books to find one for Jean. Scott later breaks curfew to bring her the book she requested. 

 

Despite her growing attraction for Scott, his chivalry chafes. What does it say about her, and how will it define their relationship?

Art

While she doesn't include clothing changes, Marguerite Sauvage’s characters resemble the paper dolls that comic readers once cut out and played with. Her limited color palette gives Rowell’s story a bright, dreamy appearance that evokes summer holidays. Jean’s eyes glow when she sees her favorite guys in Marvel Age #1000. Only one bed looks occupied in her dorm room at Professor Xavier's school, symbolic of how her powers isolate her. 

 

Pages evoke Pizzazz, Marvel's short-lived pop culture magazine, that attracted readers with covers featuring teen pop culture heroes.
