His shift from loyal lieutenant to independent commander will be crucial in shaping the future of the X-Men.

His growth as a character makes him the most natural successor to lead the X-Men into their next phase.

With Xaviers influence on the team diminishing,Synch stands out as a strong contender to take the reins.
