what do you guys think should be or want it to be Cyclops direction under Hickman??
(to evade trouble my question excludes anything romantic)
He is not rightclops anymore but I don't think he can ever be a full boyscout now.
Hell yes!
Absolutely!

Beat me to the punch.
I just want to say, and I know I’ve said it before, but the “To me, my X-Men” line is so fantastic in Astonishing that I’m always disappointed with its use later. When’s the last time it was used well? Not in Blue, Gold, or Red, certainly not in the recent Uncanny...
I think he is going to be one of the core leaders of whatever the new group is. I keep calling it X Nation or Nation of X because I have no idea what they are going to do. It does look like they are their own government so they have an island or a base of operations someplace that they are able to defend and they bring other mutants in via the Marauders. So if X dies in the event, there is probably some ruling by council going on and the X-Men may be the defense/military arm of the new Nation and Scott is running that side of things. Beast, Jean, and Logan are running the secret service. Kitty, Storm, and Emma are running the mutant underground railroad to help people get to the new Nation from outside.
I know the X-Men are going to rotate, but I really hope Scott and Rachel stay together long term. My hope is that Rachel is his regular team telepath and Jean rotates out every other mission or so when she does X-Force missions. This way Rachel gets to be on a regular team with one of her parents, but still gets to interact with Jean too whenever Jean comes on a mission with them.
I think they could have lots of fun with Scott and Rachel on the same team for a long time. Rachel calling him Dad when things are serious, Scott being an overprotective father if she gets hurt in the field and going all rage Dad on whoever hurt his little girl. I think it would be a good fun dynamic to have, plus it keeps it from becoming a new Rightclops era because Rachel is there to make it feel more like a family dynamic.
I think it's telling that the first arc is a Summers/Grey family arc, which tells me that the Summers/Grey family are going to be presented as one of the core parts of the X-Men going forward. Hopefully this sets the tone for interactions between X-Men, X-Force, and Fallen Angels based on the family members crossing over into each other's books.
Let your wallet talk.

Jean had more presence in death than Cyke in Hickman's entire run.
Hickman succeeded where 2010s Marvel didn't: make the X-Men villainous and irrelevant.
Hilariously, the X-Men have now fully embraced mutant supremacy and racism against humans.
