From the ashes of Krakoa, a new Phoenix series relaunches from writer Stephanie Phillips and artist Alessandro Miracolo this July, Phoenix helps to kick off the second wave of new X-Men titles after Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X wrap up the seminal Krakoa era. Those two series, along with X-Men: Forever, have put Jean Grey and the Phoenix at the forefront of mutant-king’s last stand against Orchis and Enigma, a Sinister ascended Dominion.

Since Stephanie Phillips and Alessandro Miracolo’s PHOENIX launched last year, Jean Grey has been reborn as the cosmic superhero she was destined to be! As the galaxy’s prime protector, Jean has tapped into the uppermost limits of her abilities in reality-shaking battles against Perrikus, Thanos, and the Dark Gods, all while struggling to hold onto her humanity

Phoenix #12
Protecting the cosmos as Phoenix, Jean Grey has experienced near-limitless mystery and wonder — a universe of perpetual possibility! But nothing so magnificently unexpected as this: her sister, Sara Grey, has returned to life. Murdered by the Phalanx many years ago, another in a long line of Greys to lose their lives in untimely, violent ways, Sara nonetheless stands before Jean, alive and well. But — when?! Why?! How?! All of these are questions worth asking. And Jean Grey probably should. Needless to say… this would be a very different story if she did.
