THE STORY:
“Savior”, Part 3 of 5
While Omega Red holds Jubilee hostage and with S.H.I.E.L.D. hot on his trail, Logan makes his way to Berlin – the site of an ill-fated mission during his time in Team X – to retrieve an ellusive artifact from the Cold War: the carbonadium synthesizer. Omega Red wants the synthesizer so that he can stabilize the deadly carbonadium bonded to his body—but can he be trusted to deliver on his end of the bargain? Of course not. Logan has a plan, though—but he’s going to need some help from an old friend to pull it off.

This ‘abandoned her when she needed me most’ line by Wolvie, what issue is this scene referring to? Wolverine never acted so terribly to her before

I’m fairly certain they’re referring to Wolverine # 75, as Way claims to have done tons of research on Wolvie and that’s a fairly significant issue.
However, the portrayal of that scene isn’t exactly how it’s shown there.
But I think it’s save to assume (until the entire issue is out), that’s what they’re referring to. After Logan left the X-Men in Wolverine # 75, Jubilee soon ended up with Generation X, where she saw very little of Logan. Their reunions were far and few in between. They probably met up again between the pages during the latter portions of Austen’s Uncanny run, post- the craptastic “Holy War” arc. But even then, Logan had tons of crap he had to do – such as his own series, his limited series and whoever he was teaming up with that month.
So . . . yeah.
The reason I know this is because I just finished this era of the X-Men during the course of a vast re-reading and subsequent blogging of the X-Books. Check it out here: http://uncannyxperiment.blogspot.com/
Couldn’t help but plug what I’m doing! :)

Didn’t Jubilee lose her powers after House of M (During Decimation)
Maybe it was then?
