But unlike Jean and Charles, there is always that dark side to Emma. Emma took on a far larger role as a leader of the team as well, becoming a surrogate Charles Xavier to the new team. She is credited with bringing him back into the fold of the X-Men so to speak after the death of Jean Grey and loss of Jean Grey. It was during this time that she also began her relationship with Scott Summers, the X-man Cyclops. But it was during the series, the Phalanx Covenant, with her team of Sabretooth, Jubilee and Banshee that Frost took the side of the X-Men and mutants. She first appeared in the Dark Phoenix Saga of the X-Men line and she proved that a female could be a powerful and deadly enemy. Alongside Sebastian Shaw she forged the Hellfire Club into one of the greatest enemies of the X-Men. Her psychic abilities rivaling those of Professor X and Jean Grey. In her earliest incarnation, Emma was a forminable enemy. She has gone from White Queen of the Hellfire Club, Leader of the Hellions, to fighting alongside of the X-Men in the Phalanx Covenant to member of the X-Men to eventual leader alongside lover Scott Summers. Emma Frost, the White Queen, is perhaps the only Marvel Character in the X-Men Universe to have so completely changed alliances and her position in the Marvel Universe without changing herself.
