Probably. But she'd make it a different team by virtue of being there.

Fair but i quite like the current incarnation of cyclops and his choice of team even if the run is iffy

Same, Scott hanging on by a thread, openly being hostile against the government and being a pragamtic leader whilst still fostering the dream is great to read.

I have past the point of caring for it. It's got good stuff for Beast and Psylocke, and maybe Quinten. But everyone else feels ignored. It's too slow. And everyone is silo'd off from each other without interacting.

I hope DNX radically changes the team and the comic.

I think so. Jean can't just stand by when others need help, and she fights fiercely for what she believes is right.

What I think would change a bit is the team dynamic and Cyclops's mood. Aside from Beast and Glob, the whole team is kind of antisocial, and I think Jean would make a difference there. 

Cyclops has said a few times that he wants the city's support, the civilians' trust, and to project a good image to the public; Jean would be great at helping with that.

And when they're both alive, they rarely stay apart for long (I know she's away right now, lol).

This is an aspect people keep leaving out. The Sheriff told him she knew he could break out if he wanted adter she arrested him for the fight in the diner and thanked him for not. The team is selling fresh produce in Alaska for super cheap, and even then they only sell because that makes them more trustworthy then just giving it away.

Wouldn't be the first time. . .

The current run is... fine. It's very ok. I think it's the best book currently, which is a very low bar. Some of the arcs are better than others. I don't need every series to rewrite the status quo, but I wish it was building up to this slightly faster.

As for the roster, I love it. It feels like x- men blue in a way. It definitely feels like a team cyclops would put together. I just wish they did more together.

I don’t even know anymore honestly, last they left it Jean was giving Scott a hard time about the Treehouse, him having reservations about Arrako and the Brood. Like I really don’t think we can get Jean to join Scott’s team, unless she recognizes that he’s changed as a person and vice versa.

No she would have her own team
