By the exploding vagina costume I'd say Dazzler
We never saw a body so I always assumed Xorn and/or Bastion are out there somewhere, and there was speculation they might come back as some hybrid character. Either way, totally seems like a character Hickman would make use of, and his connections to the others would certainly prove interesting.
Similarly Exodus has a long history and his wide array of powers are hella cool. Magneto's Brotherhood gathered in X-Men Blue seemingly disassembled after Erik was pulled into the Age of X-Man, but at this point my assumption is that Exodus, and possibly Elixir, Briar and Unuscione are all still up on Asteroid M with all the Mothervined Mutants.
I left Rachel out of my speculation as I honestly have no idea what they're doing with her character right now. I think she'd be good for X-Factor or Excalibur but it depends if they're sticking with her as a hound or whatever. With Jean and Hope in action, in addition to pretty much every other telepath, we might be at a point where editorial considers Rachel to be dead weight with other characters filling the role Rachel usually would on a team.
Wait, a Bastion/ Xorn hybrid.....that’s not a good thing (fueling my theory that Bastion is behind at least half of the teams suffering)
Sadly, true......5-10 years ago, there where just Rachel, Emma, Kid Omega (by the Schism Era).......kinda ironic.......in Morrison/ Casey’s/ Austin’s day Jean was considered the same and either Editorial or Morrison wanted to kill Jean off since they had Emma.....now there’s about to be Jean, Betsy and Emma......

Maaaaaan I'm still mad at what they did to Rachel I remember the moment I fell in love with the character it was during AvX where she beat Thor's ass without a telepathic HAMMER (extra points for that savagery) after he gloated about being a god. THAT'S the Rachel I want see more of bad ass, confident, and POWERFUL Rachel even without the PF.
"God's don't scare me, no matter the size of their hammers."
Uncanny X-Men - Hickman and Larraz
X-Men - Hickman and Asrar
X-factor - David and RB Silva
Generation X - Thompson and Bachelo
Wolverine - Cates and Stegman
Excalibur - Williams and Pacheco
X-force - Brisson and Medina
Storm - Thompson and Sara Pachelli
It'd certainly prove a challenge for our X-Men who are well-equipped to take on most threats that come their way.
Plus the Stepford Cuckoos, Xavier/X, Monet, Hope, X-Man & Kwannon among others. The X-Men have no shortage of telepaths. And even not being the biggest fan of Rachel myself, it's sad to see her shoved aside in favor of other characters. I can see why some others hold more appeal, but there's no reason she can't have a role of her own. I would at least prefer her to go and be a Starjammer again over being delegated to frothing-at-the-mouth Hound duty.
There's no confirmation but I think people have come to that conclusion based on his previous patterns and needing room to develop his many interconnecting characters and narratives. That said, a bi-weekly title with a wide cast could have the same effect.
So, who would lead in Uncanny? Cyclops (unless he still feels that leadership got him into all that trouble)? Storm (she’s lead several times)? Jean (who it took how many years for her to headline a team)? Wolverine (his tenure as Headmaster was leadership, and he’s long since gained support from others to be leader)?
Logan sucked at being a leader, Ororo even more in the Terrigen era. No way Emma or Magneto would follow Jean.
I don’t see Banshee coexisting in Emma’s book with Mystique.
