Since Disney's takeover, Marvel has had more female artists and female writers.  As for female characters, they have prominently returned Magik, the Scarlet Witch, Polaris, Black Widow, Valkyrie, the All Mother (Gaea, Freyja, and Idunn), among others.

They just haven't returned Jean.  But the fact Hope (and the Scarlet Witch) are such key figures in Avengers versus X-Men is something, in and of itself.  Oh, and Magik defeated Dr. Strange in their fight.   Marvel used to be sexist, with all the experts in magic, psychic powers, technology or anything being old white men.  So the fact that they had Magik defeat Strange is significant, and the fact these days Xavier is in the back seat is also significant . Dr. Voodoo was awarded the eye of agamotto, so Strange no longer has that.

Just keep up with what's happening.  I still think she might be back by Dec. 2013, and I will hope Avengers versus X-Men at least lays the seeds for that , even if she isn't returning in it.
