Ok, I’ve been watching the old X-Men animated series at the same time Antonio is knocking off season 5 of Babylon 5. That combination watch has made me not ice something I have not seen before.
Is it just me or had anyone else noticed the similarities between Lyta Alwzander and Jean Grey?
The Lyta from The Gathering and pre-Vorlon version were middling enough, though admittedly not as annoying as Jean. Though my wife does point out that if you include Talia, the theory is right on target. The. Once the Vorlins get hi, she becomes this enhanced super-guardian of Light.
But what really tipped me off was now in season 5 where Lyta is going all Dark Phoenix on us. Heck, Pat Tallman could have easily play Jean Grey in the movies.
When you consider JMS’ fondness and relationships with comics, is this just s coincidence? Admittedly, Lyta hasn’t been killed as much as Jean, but then who has? I can’t hp but wonder.
What are your thoughts on it?
