But like cranger said, these lean toward staged promos. We are seeing what Marvel & Hickman want us to see.

He's a master at selling hype and frills... unfortunately. I want to be excited about this radical change but they're just trying too hard to sell it imo as I'm not one to drool over those chart things at the front of his comics or whatever. Nice seeing more than designs from the cover though, sure.

"Mutants' best days are ahead of them". I'm very excited. It's time for a massive change and the X-Men deserve it.
Thanks for sharing.

At this point I think that's super unlikely. I mean, Hickman did say that she was prominent.

Prominent doesn't mean a lot, just mean she will show up a lot. And it was about the minis, I'm more worried about how she will be treated going forward. The character needs build up not another half assed deconstruction

Has anything that has been shown since Jean was brought back by any writer that has written her that she was going to be deconstructed? She's officially one of the faces of the X-Men, I don't think that there's anything that we have to worry about in the context of being fans.

Yes, I think so too! I think Marvel has seen since her return how Jean is a cornerstone of the X-Men universe. And one of their leaders. She no longer needs to be Xavier's private nurse like in the 90's. She's her own woman now, and I hope at times she will butt heads with Scott on the steps to take.

Not only that, she is currently the X-men's premier X-woman which seems to be the case for Hickman

Future slim sentinels looks cool and frightening.

**Uncanny X-Man** · 06-17-2019, 01:25 PM

I'm just unbelievably hyped now. Not that it was really necessary as Jonathan Hickman and the X-Men are a match made in heaven for me, but the Marvel marketing machine is really firing all cylinders here.

I also like the fact that we still don't have the faintest idea on what HOX/POX are about. I pray Marvel will resist the temptation to release more information as we get closer to the release date, or outright spoil some content, because I don't know if I can be strong enough to avoid meatier previews.

Exactly

I feel the same way

I’m still looking forward to it

And personally, I'm very okies with that.
I've always liked and welcomed change once it is well-thought out and executed...
it could be with individual characters as with Storm when she went from "Serene Divinity" to "Badass Punk" and then lost her powers.
It could be a change of scenery as in moving from Westchester to Australia to San Fransisco.
It could be a directional/tonal change as the transition from Claremont's ideology to Morisson's.
Sure...I missed some things, and I hated some things but overall, once they were telling interesting, exciting, beauty-fully illustrated stories those changes never bothered me.
I'm excited to see just how deep and how far HiX-Man will change things.
