Gotcha.
Had completely forgotten that story, well probably never read it in the first place.
Not sure if it says anything about Hickman, can just as well argue that he simply writes Sunspot in-character. Unless it's a pattern repeating in other of his comics?

Couple of things: I know its Moira but she rlly looks like Kitty at times. Congratulations Monet on making it to the cover despite ur dark complexion. Who's the girl next to her? Red hair makes me wanna say Hope but the outfit is reminiscent of Husk W&tXM. I'm glad Magneto is wearing sleeves. Did they recolor that little girl to reassure the defenders of Jean's white pussy? Lol

"Jon, what are your plans for the X-Men?" "Cancel every book because it's all bad, folks." Did they recolor that little girl to reassure the defenders of Jean's white pussy? Lol I'm frankly disgusted that Jean's being whitewashed by mentoring a broccoli girl. Like Hitler hanging out with Anne Frank.

His head seems to be in the right place but im really concerned how overly pretentiass he comes off. He's gonna get his feelings hurt I can tell that.

He's puffing himself up, figuring it will help him prepare for inevitable backlash and complaints. It's going to eat away at him regardless.
Past 10 years, my experience has been that people overhype new creators coming aboard something, which they then come back to reality and don't like it. The higher the hype, the harder the fall.
His plan of ending all the books and starting over has two fatal flaws.
Flaw #1: It requires all writers to cut off plans they had or would've liked to pursue in favor of stepping in line with Hickman. That doesn't exactly make for good feelings, even if writers go along with it. Flaw #2: This is a reboot after a reboot after a reboot after a reboot after a reboot after a reboot after a-
Everything Marvel's done with and to the X-Men for a while now has sabotaged the very concept Hickman is pursuing today. The status quo has been radically altered too many times recently. His solution of "Yeah but THIS time it's gonna last for a few years!" doesn't actually solve anything. He's suggesting a hard quick fix when the reality is that the books need time and stability.
Ultimately, I think this project has more to do with him wanting the books redefined around his vision rather than what's actually good for it. Ending the entire line while he does things serves nobody but him. It prevents other writer voices from having a say, and it sets a precedent that anything that doesn't fit his model after HoX and PoX is instantly "wrong" or "inferior."
I expect plenty of raving from hardcore fans before they start to see all the issues with this.

I can’t wait for Hickman’s run to start. I’ve been wanting him on an X title ever since we lost Gillen. Let’s not pretend that the books haven’t been trash for years. There’s nothing at all to be lost by shutting it all down

I'm not really planning to argue about it, I'm just saying what I've seen and expect. Doesn't do me much good to get into all that when I can simply watch things happen.

Do I need a Hickman chart to illustrate the connection between that video and the topic?

There’s nothing at all to be lost by shutting it all down All current creators were aware of Hickman's coming when they signed on. So Flaw #1 does not apply.
As for Flaw #2, well if you keep trying you will hopefully get it right at some point. Having only HOX and POX for 3 months should send the right message to retailers and readers at least.
