As 20th Century Fox's X-Men: Dark Phoenix continues production, Marvel has announced that Jean Grey will be making her return to the comics universe in Phoenix Resurrection.

The five-issue Marvel Legacy limited series will be written by Matthew Rosenberg (Secret Warriors, Punisher) with art by Leinil Yu (Secret Empire), and will reintroduce the original, adult version of Jean, who hasn't been seen in quite some time.

“Matt came to us with a really interesting and unique approach to bringing Jean back,” said senior editor Mark Paniccia. “It’s not what we expected, and plays to Matt’s biggest strengths as a storyteller. This is very cool mystery building to a mind-warping climax. And it has plenty of what you’d expect from an X-MEN epic of this magnitude. Action, romance, sacrifice, lots of X-Men and five great artists.”

Phoenix Resurrection: The Return of Jean Grey
is set to hit shelves on December 27.

I'm loving Marvel Legacy so far. I can't wait for Esad Ribic and Jason Aaron to take over.

Wasn't all of her "returns" retconed recently? Like, this Jean that is coming back is the actual Jean who's been dead since The Dark Phoenix saga? If so, this could be very special.

@ODanil - Nope. They've been there already.

God...I really hate a lot of Marvel's publishing decisions.

They are straight up a soap opera, which is normally fine, but now they're just rehashing everything a thousand times.

Jean making her return (even billed as "the original, adult..") loses its impact when Marvel already has a Jean Grey running around in their comics. *sigh* Keep trying, Marvel,
