Apparently, Illyana will be making her return in the next issue of X-Men: Divided We Stand. I'll flip through it, but it'll really depend on who's doing this. If it's Carey, then I'd be intrigued... Yana seems like a character he'd handle well. Otherwise, though...

Illyana rules, but there've been too many lies and too much crap for me to trust Marvel remotely now... I'll wait to see where the lies are this time before I even consider buying. She's probably a Skrull or something...

Apparently, according to C B Cebulski on Newsarama, it isn't a hoax, flashback, dream, or otherwise a trick or cheat. She's back proper.

Oops. I just noticed that link had already been provided.
So, has anyone read this yet?

Honestly, I'm waiting for the trick... If it IS her, I can get the back issues! ;D

I looked through the issue... and it does indeed seem to be her. Or at least, if it's an impostor again this time, it's actually a fairly believable one. ;D
There's also a cool Beast story from Mike Carey, but then I'd expect him to deliver. The other short pieces aren't really worth bothering with, IMO.

Good to see you back, SPS. Your link seems to lead to a piece on a Watchmen downloadable game, though. Would you be referring to this article, by any chance? Anyway, this could be interesting, at least conceptually. Guess we'll see how the follow-through goes.

Fixed.
Not fully back as my internet access is still rather limited but ah well.

Maybe I'm getting more cynical in my old age, but with the utter mess Marvel seem determined to make with Yana right now, I have no confidence that this will be anything other than junk.
I am SO tired of hearing how much these writers 'love & adore' Yana - right before they spell 'Darkchilde' wrong and can't even begin to grasp the basics of who she is.
It's just depressing. I'd rather they left her 'dead' than this ridiculous mess.

Well, Marvel to me does seem to be getting better, besides Spider-Man and some X-Men books. Unfortunately the X-Men books cover Illyana as well... but, if she's back proper, there's a better chance of a better writer having an opportunity to write her in the future. Maybe you, EK!

I could do a far better job than the people at Marvel are doing, GK. I think I've proved that. But then, 'damning with faint praise' and all that...
