Justing a sighting not a full appearance

We know whose power is that
I just read the issue and it was fantastic. The story was exciting and the art was good but not as great as Salvador's.
We also have a new New Mutant member i.e. Sunspot joining in the next issue which was what Hope absorbed in proximity.
That only leaves out Magma and Cypher to complete the New Mutants team. Yeah, I know about Cannonball but he's in X-Force.
Rosenberg is good at giving us surprises every issue!

As for the issue itself, just meh. Rosenberg continues with his characterization of everyone but Magik as utterly incompetent (Hope is a little better this issue, but she still fucked up previously) and Scott comes off as petty this issue too. Not to mention no explanations to things as to why Dani has her powers back or she has a psychic link with Rahne again all the sudden.
But he didn't need to have all this villains and stories; nobody was claiming for a new Joseph or Orphan Maker story. We didn't need a cast so bloated that yet keeps expanding every issue.
The only good thing about this run continues to be that I know Hickman will ignore everything, so no worries about long-term consequences.
The comic is okay, but it starts to be a bit annoying as all the X-Men look like incompetent jerkass minus Magik.
Issue 1 to 10 was overhyped and really boring.
I agree Rosenberg's run should have started in UXM #1 instead and a lot of things would have been explained and shown in panel instead of off-panels.
I don't think Hickman will ignore everything, I like that Dani has her powers back and Rahne would still stay dead or else the funeral would be meaningless.
Rosenberg is the only person to blame here- like I said, no one was claiming for the next Joseph or Orphan Maker story, and the one benefit of virtually all the X-men gone is that he could focus only on a few ones- could have been Scott, Logan and the New Mutants (to undo the damage he did in Lost Souls), maybe even throw Havok there too- but he keeps expanding the cast and killing characters, sometimes off panel, every issue, while introducing new elements that are unnecessary. It's a mess.
I'm thinking about the incompetence of not adding something so simple in last week's issue of "These events take place after War of the Realms."
All the comics do it, why could not they do that? It's stupid, it's sabotaging yourself.
