The only ones where the primary characters aren't getting developed is X-Men, and that's just because Hickman can't write people well. Marauders is doing fine for Kitty and Bishop. X-Force looks to be doing it for QQQ and Wolverine. Excalibur for Apocalypse and Betsy. New Mutants for Roberto so far. That's not a bad ratio for 1 or 2 issues.
I was slow to like Teen Jean at first (when she first came on the scene I had taken a break from the books), but when I started to collect the trades of the Bendis run I decided quickly that she was our Jean Grey. I loved when they finally put the debate to rest and the O5 were our X-Men and making them go back and time and the adult versions receiving their memories were great. I do wish Jean kept her new power (the pink form but oh well). One of the big changes with Teen Jean was making Jean a leader but at least we got to see that in our Jean in X-Men Red.
I personally loved the Teen Jean solo series but I know others didn't care for it as much.
I noticed the phoenix emblem in the Teen Jean logo during Jean Grey issue 1. I thought it was clever.
I'm not feeling the new Kitty, bishop also had a strange moment dude doesn't care about luxury, Gambit is awful, Any character on x-men not called Scott being written weird, laura and Cable.
X-force is the only book that seems to be getting characters right, hope the 2nd issue is a good sttrike too
At least with Teen Jean writers and editors were concerned to make her a leader.
I really don't think they are going to reference Jeen, seems like a good chance to streamline continuity again.
I hope that I'm wrong, because the pink power is good.

It doesn't fit into the new world Hickman is establishing, and it's certainly not new reader friendly.
Also the difference with staffing now for the X-books is that they are focused on generating potential ideas for the X-Men in MCU.
While I personally loved Jeen, I don't think she or the o5 will be referenced ever again. All the adult o5 are alive, so there's no real need to.

this costume would look better on red and blue
That was the worst one, the other two were pretty decent

I think the costume looks great in that cover. Are y'all gonna say it looked better with the other colors every time it shows up?(assuming she's gonna be wearing it elsewhere... I'll be asking Cassara/Percy on twitter but idk if it's too soon lol.)
They did look great, especially the Blue/solo one imo, but I don't think they fit adult Jean.
Ramos costume only looks good from other artists.
"Cable was right!"
