I just finished read this issue, and I was once agaim blown away by the amount of ideas and unexpected revelations about some of the original plot elements.Case in point: before Jason Wyngarde corrupted her, Jean was abl to hold back the Phoenix influence. That is so logical that almost make me think this hs been in John's mind since day one. Too bad that in the original run this was never brought up, not even when Inferno delt with the Jean/Madelyne/Phoenix issue. Nightcrawler and his amount of powers: wasn't that because Cockrum was so fond of him that he kept giving him new abilities at every turn? And finally: Silver Surfer. Apparently, he didn't care when Phoenix first manifested, but now he steps in as he should have to. Again, no one ever think of doing that in so many years: it's like realizing all of a sudden that the universe was not working, but we couldn't realize it at the time. Well, it was worth it, since now we are getting this sweet series. And then, the resolution of the Phoenix clash, that left me unable to react: in this series, truly everything can happen.
