I can’t wait another two decades for a proper Jim Lee era gem! in a perfect world Marvel would have had the rights sense the beginning to avoid retcons and such but we’ve gotta work with what we got. They could at some point do a WW2 flashback with wolverine and cap, that’s feasible.

You’ve got a darn good point. On one hand you don’t want the X-Men to be teenagers, on the other hand the Jim Lee era team is the most recognizable. I didn’t think of that. I suppose if the X-Men have been in hiding for year the Jim Lee roster would be ideal. Mid 20’s to early 30’s versions of Professor X, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Kitty Pryde, Rogue, Gambit, Psylocke, and Jubilee would set them tone for years to come in the MCU with the X-Men.
