Geez you all want Jean back yet the one person in the whole story that actually tries to honor her is shunned into the ground.

Face it without Rach. Jean would be dead and not even mentioned. End of greys and uncanny is the last time you've ever heard of Jean Grey and now there is nothing but Rach. So suck it up 'cuz the way its going if Jean-lite weren't around Jean would be a memory.

And please what Jean storylines name them. Nothing Rach. has done was something that had to do with Jean. Get over it!

And she, like her brothers and Bishop and all the temporal displaced people, may not technically have a family in the present time frame but since there are temporal biological counterparts to their familys they've tried to fit with them. And in someways Jean accepted her "kids". Oh and taking on someone's name and clothes is symbolic in honoring them (people have done for centuries and Jean did tell her she could). There is nothing wrong with trying to keep someone alive that way.

In no way has she even been mentioned as trying usurp her mother's role. Geez she's in Uncanny not the main X-men title for a reason.

Rach.'s only real crime is not being blown up or targeted like Jean so no Phoenix is left. She's the ONLY Jean reminder left other than Emma's tacking statue (which has probably been destoryed).

And stop taking on identity issues for a character who doesn't even have them. There is more to both women that make them very separate beings. but if you guys honestly think that Jean is so easy to replace then stop liking her cause she is a dime a dozen. Just throw in red hair, last name Grey, Eye color, Phoenix and temper (plus some costumes) and We have a new Jean. Stronger, longer lasting with fresh pine scent!!!!! (strength not guaranteed!)
