HALP!!

I've been scouring my ESSENTIAL volumes, and I can't find the point at which Jean established the "mental rapport" with Scott. I thought it was aboard the crashing space shuttle, but the scene I'm remembering turns out to be her using her telepathic powers to knock him out.

Anybody have a better memory?

(As usual, please only answer if you KNOW.)

it's done as a flashback from the top of the butte near Angel's place after she "holds back his optic blasts"

Scott remembers it as he's being held captive by the Hellfire Club

the dialogue says it was "a week ago" .  So a week before Jean becomes Dark Phoenix

Yep, 133. Thanks.

(Altho this slightly skews something I had planned here.)

And can I add, how refreshing it is to have a writer actually care about continuity!

Scott and Jean's* "first time", as established by Weezie and Walt.

*Of course, drama ensued since it turned out that she wasn't actually Jean!

That scene of Scott and Jean on top of the mesa reminds me of how a good story can be open to interpretation on many levels, depending on your life experience.

I first read that issue as an eight year old and I knew they were being intimate, but nothing more than kissing. As an adult you can infer that there's more than that going on.

Just peeking in for any updates to this ELSEWHEN project... and enjoyed seeing another awesome page - JB, you never disappoint me... and it makes me day-dream of all the great X-Men stories ahead - whether official or unofficial.

Fingers crossed that you have something in mind for Magneto and the Brotherhood in all of this!

-C!

I just realized the last time we saw Magneto in the ELSEWHEN timeline was the fight in the volcano when the master of magnetism was truly powerful, surely evil and really dangerous!

Here is hoping we all get a great Christmas gift in an announcement of this series . The wait is agonizing.
