I can't stop thinking about how Krakoa is basically Utopia but with extra sci-fi. Even Xavier seems to use Omegas as his Extinction Team.
Scott must feel vindication.
Hell yes!
Absolutely!

It's Father's Day here in Brazil, so it got me thinking about Scott and his children. Therefore, it made me take a look at my Messiah Complex TPB and there was some cool stuff within the bonus material. It's interesting that on "Scott's notes": he mentions how he thinks that the path he took (reacting to threats instead of being proactive) would be the end of the X-Men and mutantkind eventually, despite being necessary; he feels some big guilt for failing the students and letting so many of them die to the Purifiers; and his outrage at things like the Marauders and Predator X. Also, it's interesting to see how one of the goals of the event was to make Scott to emerge as the one true leader of the X-Men, when it was all said and done.
I'm saying this kind of in response to Glio's last post. I think Scott might feel some vindication, since Xavier is doing a lot of what he did but with more resources, and a bigger contingent of mutants. But, overall, I think this MIGHT be the first time in years Scott feels some semblance of peace. He's on a mutant heaven, Charles is back, he and Logan are not at each other's throats and Jean is back to enjoy all this new world with him.
This might make him even more dedicated to protect what Krakoa represents. Maybe more proactive. Scott's arc last decade was of a man who gradually lost everything he cared about, and became more radicalized, more aggressive. Since that path brought him a lot of sorrow, I think he might want to avoid it and not lose any of the thing mutants really accomplished. The question is: will he act like Doom, in Secret Wars, who held as tight as he could to everything he could save, because he didn't truly believe in himself, or act like Reed, who wanted to save everything and make it even better because he knew he could?
It might be something for Hickman to explore in his X-Men run. Maybe not in this first act, but at some point in the future.
I think parenthood adds a new dimension to the characters. It so awesome to see Magneto or Wolverine trying to be dads, it makes the characters more wholesome, likeable and mature. I love it when Cyclops does it too. I hope he can keep doing it.
Xavier's secret hairline, the location of which will be revealed in the true greatest moment in X-History, is the one true ruler of the mutant race. Scott and Logan will sit on the couch, drink their beers, and watch the damn basketball game.

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.

Have there been X-Men stories/AU's that place them in different time periods? I know about the black Scott that fought in the Civil War and the X-Men noir, but what about stories set during WWI, II or the Vietnam War? Wonder what Scott or Jean or the other X-Men would've done.

And that's what Ladies and Gentlemen is what I say a modernized 90s Cyclops costume. So good
Pouches aren't bad if we see them used every now and then. That's why Batman's belt of pouches is accepted and those of other heroes get mocked. Cable and Deadpool have to have some to store all the ammo and explosives they go through, but Scott, like Batman, needs an alternate explanation for what those things hold, since they can't all be spare glasses/visors. Although with the number of times he's had them broken, a spare set of each is something that he SHOULD have.
Maybe some stuff for triage/first aid, a smartphone sized remote control for the blackbird, or the standard superhero stuff like smoke pellets, the grapple line (thrown not shot, nor used every issue), mini-rebreather, and such.
If the reader sees some stuff get brought out from time to time it makes the existence of a pile o pouches an easier pill to swallow. And since Scott isn't a gadget hero, his stuff would be more for emergencies/contingencies rather than regular use.
Dark does not mean deep.
