The mask is to cover Medusa's true identity as she impersonates Jean.
Surprise! HOX/POX is just the lead in to IVX 2

And she seemingly gets to keep her melanin & wear a zipped costume. So I am genuinely looking forward to what Husk & Monet can do, especially together again after so long. We've seen a good bit of her interacting with Jubilee, but be nice to see her connect with Paige more.
LOL
I see the mindless "headless chicken" speculations are in full force and growing by the hour, everyday...
July 24th can't come soon enough if only to put an end to the ravings.
The public identity of Wolverine, Cyclops and Jean Grey (hell, she does not even use codename) has been known for a long time. Like Captain America, masks are pure aesthetic decisions.
Plus the O.N.E. knows who the survivors of decimation all are. They were monitoring the mansion 24/7 during the period when they had it surrounded. I remember that time because they were really obsessed with Psylocke and Rachel. They tracked Psylocke because she flaunted how hot she was for the cameras, and they tracked Rachel because she scared the hell out of them (worried about how powerful she is). One of my favorite issues was that one after the death of the greys when Rachel snuck out for her psychologist appointment in Chicago and everyone was tracking her, the O.N.E. and the Shi'ar. Rachel and Elizabeth had to shield the entire city against a space laser barrage by the Shi'ar against Chicago. Then the O.N.E. tracked Rachel even more after that because she put a mental shield around the entire city of Chicago that was able to repel a space attack.
But yeah, the O.N.E. knows all of their identities, so the government knows, Shield probably knows, the CIA and FBI probably know.
Some of the newer members and people who were not at the mansion during that time might not be known by the government.
I did not mean the government, I mean even ordinary people. Cyclops was the cover of Rolling Stones, leader of a nation and world revolutionary. Everyone knows that he is Scott Summers.
Just because their identities are known by the government and the public at large that doesn't mean they shouldn't hide their faces
What if Jean just wanted to walk down the street and get a cup of coffee?
Jean is Hallum's favorite X-Man. He really likes New X-Men. Season One is about Jean. He even brought back Jean from New X-Men so he could write her, the significance of which is undermined by the brilliant editorial planning that approved and hyped up the return of a character who was gone for years after already approving the return of that character and having that happen like 4 months earlier. Anyway, D Double-H is the best Jean writer in general in recent memory.
I don't blind date I make the direct market vibrate
Why would putting on this mask hide Jean's identity, especially since its one she's used before? Anyone with half a brain can tell its Jean, especially when she gets to using her powers and it doesnt obscure her face or hair, unlike lets say Spider-Man. I dont see why she would be in hiding as this isnt really a good disguise.
