10 Characters Who Could Return In Marvel Legacy

8. Jean Grey

Marvel Legacy 1
Marvel Comics

With a name like Phoenix, the return of Jean Grey always feels like it could come at any time. Surprisingly for a character that is known for dying and being resurrected, Jean has remained dead for thirteen years. Today, however, it was announced that adult Jean will star in a five part series coming out called Phoenix: Resurrection.

Currently in Marvel there is a younger, time displaced Jean Grey leading her own team of X-Men. A fairly large portion of her story has been devoted to Jean forging her own path and avoiding the Phoenix, so the chance to see young Jean interacting with her resurrected self will be an interesting story for Marvel to tell.

Marvel have been putting a lot of emphasis on the entity of Phoenix leading up to this new series as The Phoenix Force has returned in multiple X-Men comics, Thor, and a recent Generations title. With all those recent appearances in mind, Marvel Legacy seems as likely a place as any to reintroduce Jean.
