I'm quite aware of the JB's concept for Elsewhen. What I mean is we all understand where things are headed based on the story. We can all see something unexpected is occurring with Jean, but let's not speculate here on the boards. My comment is about how I feel like no matter what I think might be happening, JB will give us a story that nobody thought of and it will still feel "right" for the X-Men. Also, give yourself more credit for having an understanding, Mark. JB thinks you are "very close".

It's sad that that depicting the classic versions, the definitive 'on-model' versions, is seen as perhaps existing only in a niche window of time. 'On-model' is the version we should get every time.

It is incredibly enjoyable to (a) spend time with these characters that seem so right and familiar and (b) to be invited along for a ride that is into the unknown and yet know whatever that unknown is, we can trust the storyteller to tell it right.

Oh wow, I now have a theory but I can’t even hint at it lest I spoil things...
