I'm not saying they're lying but it's clear from Luckystar and Krakoa's posts that there's an issue with their info. I'll chalk it up to bad intel and keep it moving.
I agree with the posters that said the costumes on the leaked page may not be the actual costumes for the official relaunch but rather placeholders to not reveal everything.

i mean why do we treat him/her like if theyre a legit scooper if all we get is guesses and speculation.
Whether the scoops were reliable or not, people are jumping to a lot of conclusions based on two 'future' panels and a pretty generic description of the possible appearance of a couple of characters. There could be two teams lead by these characters somewhere, the rosters and costumes nothing like the art shows, and those two teams could be far from being the definition of what Brevoort's X-Men relaunch will be.

Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
That's what I'm expecting at this stage. I think once the very last Krakoa solicits are out, it's fair game to start promoting From the Ashes... so that will be in about a month or thereabouts. But I would probably expect some teasers between now and then as some characters (these ones on this thread) and creators (Simone, Capullo, Marquez) have already been hinted at.
I know this is just a preview panel or whatever, but the only remote positive I see is Rogue embracing her Supernovas leader roots and taking center stage.
I agree that everything else looks awful and hugely regressive. Kate had an incredible character trajectory during the Krakoa era and even had a visual glowup embracing her Jewish heritage with her curls (Her Jewish heritage and features are crucial to the character). This look just looks like a regression back to the awful Whedon era (which in turn was already a huge character regression coming off of her time in Excalibur) with the chemically straightened hair and same tired training uniform color swapped. Don’t even get me started on Storm with that overdone Mohawk cut that only worked in the 80’s and should’ve never been done again. As long as nothing is messed with Ewing’s triumphant work done on Ororo and her role as regent of Mars, I am good. She frankly never should be restricted to a position on earth again.
Also side note but if they were going to do some Madame Web synchronization, why not bring back Cassandra Web Destiny-Krakoa-resurrection-style as a young hot thing looking like Dakota Johnson? Just have Julia be Arachne again since she slayed in that black spider suit.
Emma Frost, Rogue, Felicia Hardy, Helena Bertinelli, Allison Blaire, Barbara Gordon, Monica Rambeau, Carol Danvers, Illyana Rasputin, Ororo Munroe, Harleen Quinzel, Lorna Dane, Irene Adler, Kate Kane, Rachel Grey Summers, Jean Grey, Diana Prince, Barbara Ann Minerva, Donna Troy, Jennifer Walters, Gwen Stacy, Wanda Maximoff = PERFECTION!
Am I the only one that can't get behind Kitty as a leader? It has always felt very forced to me.
if they really wanted to get us hyped they would get an artist like Olivier Coipel or Clay Mann or someone everyone thinks make sexy X-men and make a giant art piece for the new era.
Cuz they knew that was going to come out tomorrow and its just not a good look. I know art is subjective but we have expectations for the X-Men.
Remember what they did of Age of X with Mike Carey and Clay Mann.
Keep in mind this isn't the official announcement. It's just little teaser, so they aren't going all out for it.
