I'm not sure about that. But they did have a bit of chemistry and they respected each other as friends and a team. They didn't have the drama Scott has with Jean or the X-Men.
That's sort of why people like Scott with the Champions so much; he can just be a superhero and have fun doing it. There's no debate on if he's Hitler or not, he's a hero.
Ex? She still has those powers doesn't she? Which she needs, considering she's an M Day victim whose X gene was never reactivated.
Yeah, Scott was really close to Kamala, and when he quit, she's the only one he told personally. He couldn't face telling the team he was leaving, so he confided in his best friend on the team, leaving her to tell the others. Not wanting to leave the team short of firepower, he made sure a replacement (which turned out to be both Ironheart and Unstoppable Wasp) was recruited first. Being with the team was a way for him to unwind, away from the whole terrigen mist worry and mutant politics. He would've probably left a bit later if the creative team hadn't changed, it would've been fine for him to stick around for another six months or so, as it turned out.

This has the potential to be either very bad or truly terrible.
They're REALLY reinforcing that this is Tyke 2.NO.
Exactly! Though it's honestly a bit better for some of us since the Champions can't fix every problem, while Beast could have done a lot more between the two most powerful teams in the world.
Waid may have made the Hitler comparison, but everyone else was already acting like it.
Like I said, the creative team change was to blame for that. Waid and Zub were working together on Avengers No Surrender, so they had plenty of opportunity to discuss the handover. Knowing that the X office had plans to remove the teenage O5 from 616, Zub probably felt there was no point keeping Cyclops around, so Waid wrote him out in his last issue. Had Waid stayed on the book longer, Cyclops would've probably been there for another trade or two.
