^EXACTLY. My only thought on that is, i thought the Phoenix coming to Earth was the main Phoenix itself. Because if that is the main Phoenix and Jean isn't coming with, then AvX will be yet ANOTHER one of Marvels biggest retcons after Krakoa.
Canontically speaking, if the "main" Phoenix comes to Earth, there will be no life for the future. It's all very messy and they just seem to be yet again retconning the Phoenix. When it manifests all it's glory in a single reality it stops the the future from happening in all others. There really hasn't been an instance of the "main" Phoenix appearing since it fought with Galactus, everything else we've seen in the physical universe have been pieces that needed to be collected. That to me is why they finally decided that Jean is the avatar of Phoenix prime, it makes it so that the Phoenix can manifest without using the power reserved for the future. The whole idea that the Phoenix has to travel to Earth from some unknown point in space to get to Hope is ridiculous, it's not like there is a planet it comes from it, it's coming from the nexus of realities, the need to travel to get somewhere is really dumb when you think about it.
If they are not retconning everything it makes since that what is coming to Earth is one of those pieces that hasn't been gathered yet. As we have seen in Endsong and Warsong, the rogue pieces crave life and sensations, they are really nothing more than Dark Phoenixes looking for a body. If they wanted to have everything tie into together they could just make it be the piece of Phoenix that Jean absorbed from Maddie, that piece was the part of the Phoenix that became the first Dark Phoenix and Jean released it off world to halt a Celestial, it has since then been unaccounted for. That would mean that they would have to read though and I don't feel like the current Marvel writers are interested in knowing anything about Marvel that they haven't written in the last 10 years.
