It's sad, I read the title "TOMORROW'S LEADER OF MUTANTKIND, CANNONBALL APPRECIATION" for this thread and it dawned on me I don't consider Sam a mutant anymore...well a mutant who is part of the X-Verse.

It's funny, if you asked me a couple of years ago, "Who would be the leader of the X-Men in the future. I would have said Sam....without blinking an eye.
