X-Men Editor Tom Brevoort shared on AIPT:
“In terms of after-effects, you already know about one thing that’ll be coming straight out of it: JEAN GREY. And it’ll have an impact on the launch of Maximum X-Men as well, though not to the point where you’ll have to have read one to follow the other.
The effects will also ripple out to some degree across the other books. But the biggest place it will hit is in Alaska and in Jed’s slice of the pie, where it will be relatively seismic.”
