Cyclops And Jean Grey Together No More? #XSpoilers

In recent issues of the X-Men Jean Grey and Scott Summers found themselves at odds, all down to the alien parasitic species, The Brood. 


In recent issues of the X-Men, married but mingling Jean Grey and Scott Summers – Cyclops – found themselves at odds, and it all comes down to the alien parasitic species, The Brood.  As Bishop brought out Scott's genocidal tendencies in a meeting of the Quiet Council of Krakoa that both were invited to attend.

Putting Jean Grey and Scott Summers at odds, rather, over a fundamental approach to life.

Not a word is said, or thought, between them, and they only share a panel like this:

Down Scott. Seriously, this is your first go-to? Where's Wolverine when you need him? Or did Jean Grey call dibs on his nibs? I know polyamory is a big thing in Krakoa these days, but I get the feeling that "we were on a break" isn't going to fly.
