Thank you, Omega_DCD! You read my mind
I wonder if the events and revelations in the upcoming Inferno storyline are going to have any effect on Jean and her development.
That's what a lot of fans keep assuming, but I'm not convinced. I can see Hickman holding off on revealing any major shifts in her development until the time is right, especially because she's been so central in so many storylines in the last 5-10 years.
In other news, I just finished reading Battle of the Atom for the first time. OMFG did I get everything I wanted and needed. For those who haven't read it SPOILERS: She yanked the Phoenix Force out of Quentin Quire, dragged and kicked Cyclops’ and Wolverine’s asses, kicked her own ass, and overwhelmed herself with her own power, and blew herself up! That is one wildin’ OMEGA QUEEN. NOBODY can do what she does. Not one person.
I simply must bow down.

Missing a cover of Jean in the current phase. Emma and Storm are shining
Jean always needs some volatility, fire and a little stubbornness. All the greatest and most entertaining versions of Jean have had it; from Claremont to Morrison, even Bendis and various other writers like Seagle and Kelly that have used her over the years. It’s what missing from current Jean; she’s just so passive and bland save for a couple moments under Percy and Cates.
