Chris Claremont: "Dead Should Mean Dead"

I came across this article from the Austin Chronicle and thought I'd share it with you and get your thoughts.

Some of the more interesting bits...

- About Jean Grey returning to the Marvel Universe:

"We’d just gone to all the effort of saying, 'Jean is dead, get over it,' and they said, 'Haha, we fibbed.' So why should anyone trust us again? But that’s the difference between being the writer and being the boss."

- In conclusion, a rather provocative statement:

“The way we ended divvying it up is that Jean Grey is Marvel’s but Phoenix, and especially Dark Phoenix, are mine.”
