John Byrne Returns (Unofficially) to X-Men
Aug
Elsewhen
In a recent post on the John Byrne’s forum, the Marvel star writer and artist wrote: “Just had one of my wilder ideas. Remember when Chris was doing X-MEN FOREVER, picking up from when he left the book? Immediately some people started speculating about me doing the same, X-MEN EVERMORE, picking up from my own exit point.
But just now I thought of something that would be even more fun. For the sake of reference, let’s call it X-MEN ELSEWHEN, picking up with the coda of X-MEN 136, but proceeding as if Shooter hadn’t thrown his king-sized monkey wrench into the works! So Jean* doesn’t die, Scott doesn’t leave, and, well, a whole bunch of other stuff does and doesn’t happen.”
That post spawned a 20 page unofficial X-Men story that just might pave the way for Byrne to return to Marvel.
