Line 132:
One of the first women from the history of Marvel would undergo a huge transformation in the Bronze Age of Comics. Jean Grey aka Marvel Girl would not only become romantically involved with Cyclops, but would have to deal with the advances of Wolverine.<ref> Classic X-Men #1, Chris Claremont, 1986 </ref> The Betty and Veronica situation that occurred with Cyclops and Angel during the Silver Age had now carried on to Cyclops and Wolverine in the Bronze Age. Despite these romantic issues, Jean Grey was transformed into the omnipotent Phoenix.<ref> X-Men #101,Chris Claremont, 1986 </ref> In an era that represented the Women's Liberation Movement, this transformation reflected the changes of society.
Throughout most of the Silver and Bronze Age, women in comics were not given leadership positions. Men (led by characters such as Mr. Fantastic, [[Captain America]], and Cyclops) chaired teams such as the Avengers, [[Fantastic Four]], and the [[X-Men]]. In the Bronze Age and early Modern Age, characters such as Invisible Woman and the Wasp would chair the Fantastic Four and the Avengers, respectively. {{Fact|date=February 2007}}
