Phoenix #11 Kicks Off a Cosmic New Arc with a Shocking Return!
The flames of the Phoenix burn brighter than ever! Marvel’s cosmic powerhouse, Jean Grey, is set for a brand-new story arc in Phoenix #11, arriving this May. With a fresh creative shake-up and a jaw-dropping revelation, this issue promises to test Jean in ways she never expected.
A New Chapter with a New Creative Team
Written by Stephanie Phillips, the mastermind behind the series’ high-stakes cosmic storytelling, Phoenix #11 introduces Roi Mercado as the new series artist. Mercado, a rising star and Marvel Art Atelier alum, brings his dynamic visuals to the series. Meanwhile, acclaimed artist Lucas Werneck takes over as cover artist, delivering stunning imagery that will set the tone for the book’s next phase.
Jean Grey’s Cosmic Destiny Takes a Personal Turn
Since its launch, Phoenix has showcased Jean Grey embracing her role as the galaxy’s ultimate protector, battling cosmic threats like Thanos, Perrikus, and the Dark Gods. But just as she seems to have mastered her newfound power, a figure from her past emerges—one so integral to her history that it shakes her very purpose as Phoenix to the core.
Marvel teases a “fracturing” in the universe—a coming imbalance that only Phoenix can stop. But with this mysterious return throwing her emotions into turmoil, will Jean be able to hold onto her humanity and fulfill her cosmic duty?
Stephanie Phillips on What’s Next for Jean Grey
Phillips promises an intense, action-packed arc: “We’re going bigger and more ambitious, continuing to ramp up the action and maybe have an unexpected reunion or two among the stars. This new arc will be cosmic and intense—pushing Jean in ways that surprise everyone… including her.”
Cover Art and Variants to Watch For
Lucas Werneck’s breathtaking main cover for Phoenix #11 will also be available as a poster, capturing the grandeur of Jean’s cosmic saga. Fans can also look forward to a stunning variant cover by the ever-popular Peach Momoko.
