I think Marvel said let's find a way to bring Jean back but without doing a resurrection and without involving the phoenix force since we need the force for AvX. So time travel it is. Bendis does seem excited for this book so hopeful that means it'll be inspired. I hope he does for Jean what he has done for Ultimate Peter Park and now Miles Morales. Young Jean within the first arc will gain adult Jean's memories and her telepathy is unlocked so she's already on her way.
I see it as a good thing that they are putting her in games esp since I only buy Marvel games with her in it. It also gives me something to do while I wait.
This concept only works for Jean. The adult version of the O5 men are still around so that might get confusing. Are they going to call the two Hanks Furry Beast and Human Beast? Either way I'll check it out. Bendis has said this book will be very character driven. The O5 need new modern costumes fast though.
