She's been gone for a long time, but she's coming back. Jean Grey? Kitty Pryde? Hope Summers? Place your bets.

I have been waiting for the cover of this issue! If it was Hope Summers that was coming back , it wouldn`t really be a big surprise. I don`t want them to build all this hype for Jean Grey's return , only to have her leave again. So , I really hope it is.... SHADOWCAT / Kitty Pryde
I think it would be quite anticlimatic to bring either Jean or Kitty back one issue before Second Coming begins. Really, try to imagine the scene:
Iceman: "OMG, Jean/Kitty is back!!"
All the X-Men: "Yay, welcome ba..."
Dazzler: "Hey, look guys, Cable returned with the mutant messiah!!"
Cyclops: "OMG, let's receive them!!"
Psylocke: "As you wish."
And then all the X-Men would leave Jean/Kitty alone while they welcome Hope...
That's why I think the mystery woman in this cover is Hope. I believe (and hope) that Jean will return in Second Coming indeed, but I expect her to return in the final issues of the event, instead of shortly before it even begins...
ooh, I like anonymous's thought that it might be the Scarlet Witch! After all, Magneto is supposedly up to something that will rock the status quo in 521, so maybe he's trying to locate his daughter and bring her to the island ... and it would be a complete surprise (but cohesive, after all Wanda is a mutant and Utopia is a place for mutants...)
Man, I stopped reading comics after they ditched BOTH my favorite characters (our Betsy and one Wanda Maximoff), so to have them together in the same book -- epic! Provided they both got enough "screentime" ... which could only happen if somehow their stories were intimately connected. Which, up to this point, they decisively are not...
Marvel does this stuff all the time! Its going to be hope, which technically is the reincarnated version of jean so that means jean really will return via Hope
yay psylocke in the forefront! is it me or she one of the main x-men now!? i mean apart from emma, cyclops and wolverine! i hope its kitty, i cant think of anyone else it could be that would be appropriate, i mean isnt this still part of nation x not second coming? (ps i think nightcrawler will die in second coming!)
heres hoping for scarlet witch... i think jean & hope will look exactly the same.... even if hope cuts her hair she'll look like rachel summers... kitty i doubt... so yay to the witch!
it's funny how wolverine is on all these covers yet he hasn't done anything in uncanny for about a year at least. if hope is jean that will be so stupid. who needs another rachel grey? who needed one to begin with lol? i really hope it isn't kitty though either because i hate that bitch.
I don't want it to be anyone. =( Right now, Psylocke is the second woman in Uncanny X-Men, only behind Emma Frost. Whoever returns Jean or Kitty will take this position from Betsy. ;_;
Kitty wouldn't change shit though. Kitty can phase through walls. That's it. She has an immature demenaor and under Fraction there's only one female who matters anyway - Emma. They hardly even have real battles or plots anymore that aren't about Scott so I doubt Kitty would contribute to any plot. No, no. I don't believe it's Kitty. If it is, I guess we'll get some new Kitty wallpaper.
Even though it might be a great story in the right hands, I don't think it will be Wanda. It might make sense that Hope would help Wanda become sane and perhaps undo some of the damage that she did. However I think Wanda's return will be a major event and I don't think that the Avengers writing team would give it up so easy.
Plus look at that cover, they have got so many great mutants that they barely use already, the Witch would be just another face on the cover within two issues. Although I have always wanted to see her with the X-men, it would be a total waste right now.
I really hope they break the mutants up into smaller groups and scatter them about and give different writers a crack at them. Let Fraction start a Scott and Emma title, they might be interesting if he focused just on them, or maybe we could all place bets on how many issues it would be before they cancelled it.
Emma looks nervous, Scott holds her like he's trying to calm her, we all know how Emma feels towards Kitty, how she had nightmares and cried after her death, so I think it's Kitty.
I really like this roster of X-Men, if only Havok and Polaris would be back it would be even better! What is the source of this image anyway? It looks like its cropped off quite alot on the sides and the top. We can barely even see Dazzler.
I would love Havok, Lorna, and even Rachel to return-but I want them to go back to what they were doing before-turn the team into 2 squads-one in "Uncanny" and the other in "Legacy". That's why it was such as novel idea in 1991 because there were so many on on team it would read like THIS-Matt Fraction's current run on Uncanny?! WTF haven't they thought of this? It makes perfect sense AND it's not hard, its been done before like all those damn Jean resurrections!!!
@The Ice King - It's very possible that we might see a return of the "Blue Legacy" and "Gold Uncanny" structure from the 90s, especially since 90's nostalgia may start to set in during the new decade. Uncanny does need some downsizing, though, in regards to the cast of characters. Legacy, on the other hand, needs a boost, which it seems to be getting.
“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

Hope has already been revealed on some covers with the x-men, yes? From the looks of who is on the forefront of the cover, my bet is Kitty.
Could Wanda be looking for a home amongst the mutants?
It's British Psylocke reincarnated yay! :)

Betsy/Wanda tortured love affair? (Kidding...!)

Confusing much lol
Betsy does not look the slightest bit interested in whoever's making their return...
yay psylocke in the forefront!
is it me or she one of the main x-men now!?
i mean apart from emma, cyclops and wolverine!
i hope its kitty, i cant think of anyone else it could be that would be appropriate, i mean isnt this still part of nation x not second coming?

should be scarlet witch, that would be the best storyline.
heres hoping for scarlet witch... i think jean & hope will look exactly the same.... even if hope cuts her hair she'll look like rachel summers... kitty i doubt... so yay to the witch!

I'm hoping it is either Jean or Kitty. But as Serena mentioned, I don't want Betsy's position on the team to be supplanted by Jean or Kitty.
Kitty wouldn't change shit though. Kitty can phase through walls. That's it. She has an immature demenaor and under Fraction there's only one female who matters anyway - Emma. They hardly even have real battles or plots anymore that aren't about Scott so I doubt Kitty would contribute to any plot. No, no. I don't believe it's Kitty. If it is, I guess we'll get some new Kitty wallpaper.
i agree with Serena i dont want Betsys place taken by Jean or Kitty so i want it to be the witch.
Even though it might be a great story in the right hands, I don't think it will be Wanda. It might make sense that Hope would help Wanda become sane and perhaps undo some of the damage that she did. However I think Wanda's return will be a major event and I don't think that the Avengers writing team would give it up so easy.

it wont be Hope...Marvel wouldn't go through this much effort trying to keep it a surprise if its her. IT'S WANDA i can spider sense it!!!
Anyone know where this image came from??
it could be Wanda
it could be Sage
i wish it was polaris back from space.....

Hope you like it.

Hey guys found previews for upcom9ng psylocke #3 :
http://www.comicvine.com/news/psylocke-3-exclusive-preview/140137/
i would like to believe its marrow or jean
Its worth to mention the presence of Colossus at the forefront and the look on his face.
Also, Wolverine was pretty shook up by Kitty's death. That could explain his presence.
that's confirmed guys...that's Kitty
Not sure if anyone's seen this, enjoy! :http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/1001/12/kittypryde.htm
