Comic Summary: Trying to find out the origin of the mystery voice that’s been tormenting her, Jean enlists Dr. Strange’s help. They enter the astral plane and soon find a memory of Jean’s early days with the X-Men – her birthday party. However, memory Jean turns against them, angry at Jean for hiding her powers. They move to another memory, this time of adult Jean Grey during a battle with the Acolytes. The two Jeans argue as young Jean despises her adult counterpart and has no intention of becoming her. They move to another memory of adult Jean confronting the adulterous Cyclops and Emma Frost. Adult Jean explains to Jean that, if she isn’t ready to accept the dark sides of herself, she will have no chance against the Phoenix. Jean finally admits that they are one and the same person. Their journey over, Strange believes the spirit of adult Jean Grey has been laid to rest. Only Jean sees that the ghost of her adult counterpart is still very much with them. Comic Notes: None.
