I don't know about that, Jean's still running the show so to speak and Scott was her biggest competition.
Yeah, that's my impression too. I honestly don't think we'll be seeing him step up and it looks like Kitty won't allow for them to be in any position of authority now.
Truth is none of them are set to be an x-man of any authority for a very long time. Its not like the old days when they were the only ones running around. In the current dynamic, they will be young rookies needing guidance from the elder statesmen. Teenagers that need to learn lessons so on so forth. Its been the backdrop of ANXM, and I suspect they will stick to that as long as it continues working for them. Not to mention Scott is supposed to be around for the foreseeable future and Kitty is part of the main cast. Leading a dog on a leash is about as far as they are going to get.
Only moments when they are split up/on their own will anyone get the opportunity to lead much of anything. I suspect this will be the case with Angel and whoever he happens to be with. Wild guess is that Jean wont be present as its been her up to this point, shell probably be captured or something along those lines.
Jean has to many freak outs to lead like every arc she cries
Bendis likes his over emotional youngsters who "feel everything way more potent than older people", or something along those lines. He overdoes it. With that said, its also understandable that these things are a big deal and she takes them hard. Its not like its minor stuff being experiences. I suspect in the not to distant future the over emotional stuff will slow down.
Also its on a path of growth. After going through rough stuff, you gradually become less rattled, more stoic. Less stuff fazes you. As an example, Jean (theoretically) should be more emotionally hardened than the others as time passes. In other words she will mature younger and faster. That makes her more likely to end up in that leadership spot, though as I said before I doubt that will ever happen anytime soon.
We really need teen Tessa to bring the stoic.
yes genesis and oya are joining the original x-men..... hell ya
