          That scene is post-Phoenix.

 |  And in the scene, Jean refers to Scott as her “lover”, surely not a term she’d use if there was nothing physical between them.  (LIZ LEMON: Lovers! I hate that word, unless it comes between “meat” and “pizza”.)

          Looks like Wolverine has a new friend for life!

          Indeed, but having this young child (how perfectly fitting!) bring Wolverine back from the brink was not same-old at all.

 |  I really missed this kind of pacing in the X-men.  You really have a gift for bring the character's personalities alive.  You did it so nicely with the FF too. This is such a treat. 
 Even the body language feels relaxed.
 
 Also seeing the blackbird in the hanger with the X-car --- very, very cool. 
 Logan's face...n'uff said!  You are seriously the only one who "gets" him.
 Gosh, it's so nice having the real Jean/Marvel Girl back.  She'd always been a central axle about which the X-men family turned. Maybe that's why it was so shocking when she "died".  Things feel dysfunctional when she's gone (or in a state of perpetual identity crisis).  I prefer a calm between storms...less soap opera drama than became the industry norm.
 
 Outstanding, wonderful stuff.

          This page feels really good! Thanks for giving Wolverine a breather, JB.

          "Wolverine! Is that him?" I laughed for minutes. It's not especially funny, but it was so delightful.

 "Jean..." From that art, and from previous story with Wolverine and Jean, I know what I expect. I also know that Mr. Byrne LOVES to switch things up... so I don't expect what I expect. I cannot wait to be surprised again. |

 They say the eyes are the windows to the soul
 I feel I have seen Logan's soul and it is not
 what I expected.
 Well-done and masterfully crafted.

          Scott's head must be swimming right now! (Along with everyone else).

 |  A trip to the big city and a run in with the city folk of New York. 
 Maybe a baseball or football game ?  
 Cheers and keep up the amazing work JB

          As the father of three teens I suspect Kitty is really going to check her Instagram or Snapchat.
