This holiday season, the real Jean Grey returns to Marvel’s main continuity in PHOENIX RESURRECTION written by Matthew Rosenberg. Marvel not only released a PHOENIX RESURRECTION Teaser video, but we now have the following information from their press release.

“Our series examines how she comes back, why she comes back, and what that means on a bigger sense for the X-Men and the world as a whole,” said series writer Matt Rosenberg. “One of the things that really excites me as an editor about the return of a character like this is where we’re going to go with her now,” added senior editor Mark Paniccia. “And her mission now, as simple as it sounds, is to save the world. The way that she does that is going to take a lot of readers by surprise.”

Other new information includes:

As a true celebration of the character’s power and iconic status, all five issues will be drawn by five different blockbuster artists who will each offer their take on Jean Grey throughout the run.

Been living under a rock not called Asteroid M? If not, you probably heard Jean Grey’s (aka Phoenix) Resurrection looms ever towards us. Jean Grey joined the X-Men in Stan Lee’s THE X-MEN #1 back in 1963. Since then, various X-Men series featured Jean Grey until her death in 1980’s X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX SAGA. In 1986’s X-FACTOR, the Phoenix subsequently resurrected Jean Grey (long story) until her second death (actually fourteenth, but who’s counting?) in Grant Morrison’s NEW X-MEN.
