X-Men Extended Headcanon, Season 10: All New X-Men

The X-Men franchise has had a few animated series, and is on their way to a sixth live action movie. But how would you put together a ten season live action show with continuity and including the best stories from the various X-books over the years?

​Here it is, the final season. Will the two units of X-Men be able to resolve their differences and become one happy franchise again?  Everything’s been cheery since this point, why not, right?

Season 10: All New X-Men
​(Showrunners: Brian Michael Bendis and Jason Aaron)

This is a giant mess to read but it’s necessary. The Avengers, thanks to Cable, believe that Hope is going to turn into The Phoenix, so they go to Utopia to contain her, and the X-Men (either faction) aren’t happy about it. But as it turns out, The Phoenix may not be targeting Hope, per se.  Or is it targeting her in a different way?
