Writers who don't do their research on her tend to phone it in and make her unsure of herself and her views in a way the character is not. Lorna has very strong and solid views based on her history, but one has to research the character to know how she sees the world. If one doesn't include her being a Genosha survivor in her past they aren't writing Lorna.
Yes, Duggan's Lorna was ok though missing any real motivation outside of coffee or connection to her history. What little he did still was better than any run in a decade with her which says more about how poor those runs with her then how amazing his character work with her was.
Hopefully, Kelly Thompson can restore some of her long-lost ideological edge yes and I don't mean in a maybe she is willing to kill some alien trying to kill them which we all know she would do and has with the Shi'ar countless times over as their lost star destroyers attest to.
Kelly Thompson: "And this whole team — Captain Marvel, Spider-Woman, Hazmat, Polaris, Wolverine, Gambit, and Psylocke is together for the full arc — CAPTAIN MARVEL #43 - #49. (plus expect some appearances by Binary and Rogue and MAYBE some other guests - wink wink, nudge nudge)."
