I would like to see a Cyclops solo that is just about him without any x-men, jean, xavier or wolverine. I want to see him in a story that puts him in a new situation, like hunting vampires with Blade, fighting hydra members with Misty or travelling through the universe with the Starjammers or Guardians of the universe. I would like to see him in a story with Silver Surfer but I don't know how it would work.
Yeah, but we don't know when that takes place, how long it is, or how big her role is. Until further notice, I'm assuming she won't be there for long.

I'm really not a fan of solo books. I find them isolating, and I don't think they contribute to the overall mythos / voice of the franchise. So my vote is... drop solo books entirely and make room for more team books - even if they're smaller teams. I loved the four-member X-Force, for example.
Queen of Mutants, Mistress of Magnetism, Magnetrix and the MII, Pestilence of the Horsemen of Apocalypse, the Krakoan Oracle and creator of the Sanctus Sacrum Tournament Key, the Threshold Seed Shaper, Brood Queen of the Fall of the House of X, Lorna Sally Dane, Ph.D., of the House of M, Polaris of the X-Men
I’m kinda split on it. I agree that they feel more isolated, which I guess could be good (don’t have to follow everything else) But then they usually have an entirely different cast than the team books and it’s weird having the character interacting with random people who weren’t their usual ‘friends’ and the those random people don’t matter at all in the team books. So, yeah, it’s interesting to have more character focus, but also disjointed.
