It's a lot to take in. 😭🙏🏻❤️
Jean Grey in the words of Walt Whitman, from his masterpiece Leaves of Grass, "Song of Myself" (51 and 52):
"Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)"
"Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you."
let's just say: my favorite Jean writer is called Mr. Gillen. Give him a Jean solo book ASAP!
One down, one to go.

I feel tingly and utterly alive.

Wait does she do the thing?
The Krakoans are EEEvil!
THEY MUST BE STOPPED!

I really want to talk about the issue....just some silly thoughts ahead before diving deeper in the next days:
spoilers:end of spoilers
My personal verdict about the issue, I guess: it is up for debate, again! lol it's complicated and left open for discussion, again.
But it should be clear now that Jean is indeed the omega of the omegas: god-like potential! I hope her power level stays magical, marvelous, and beyond from now on!
There is a lot more to unpack here and I hope some of the plot points are indeed teasers for Jean's future on Krakoa. Honestly, I think the end of the crossover should be Jean creating her own transcendental pink Phoenix Force imagery by her own doing. Same but different. Still complicated and open for debate. Is it the Phoenix Force, or not? Who knows? Who cares?
What I need to die happy as a Jean Grey Fan in 2022/2023:
-I want Jean back at the council ASAP sitting right next to Storm and Emma taking control of Krakoa!
-I want Exodus including Jean centrally in his new cultish devotion of the Phoenix Force as a mutant religion.
-I want a pink Phoenix effect as Jean's ultimate power signature turning her into a being of pure thought! I don't care if it is the cosmic entity Phoenix or just Jean's ultimate potential.
-I want a Marvel legends "friendship two-pack" of Storm and Jean in their Hellfire Gala looks.
-I want world peace!!!

Can’t wait to see how her story continues in AXE because DAMN!
I don't think it was that ambiguous, it seemed pretty clear that Jean Grey = Dark Phoenix, that Jean considers herself responsible for Dark Phoenix's actions, and that Jean will always be the Phoenix in the future.
I'm glad it didn't let "casino world is saved so D'bari doesn't matter" be the final word on the subject, and I guess that was the main point of the issue, but it didn't appear to change or reveal anything besides that.
The art is really nice.
