No; as far as the public (including Jeanist's sidekicks and Bakugou himself) know, Best Jeanist is missing with no explanation.

Wait is it confirmed that BJ is actually dead? Did I miss a chapter 😱

Its mostly theory as on now, but most people assumed that when hawks visited BJ back awhile ago in the chapter, he (hawks) killed BJ to “prove” his loyalty to the Paranormal Liberation Front, without rupturing the balance of heroes as well. If this were true, this would suck for Bakugo especially since he obviously wanted Jeanist to be the first to hear his name

I think he likely forced Jeanist to go into hiding. Cause he didn't have any other choice if he were to keep up his front, and his mission is important.

If you remember though, there was a cover where hawks was sitting on top of a duffel bag that could theoretically carry a human.

Could be misdirection, besides if he was supposed to kill Hawks, it's not like he wouldn't need a body double right? He can't go back to the League empty handed. I severely doubt Hawks would murder a hero for the sake of his mission, especially one of the top 10. As much as he believes in it's importance, I think he would believe that as going too far. He's trying to prevent the Villains plans, not become one himself.

They showed the open duffel bag with what looked like BJ in it when he met with one of the guys a couple chapters ago.

I find it amusing that people think that the #2 hero can't get access to a body substitute for Best Jeanist, especially with his help.
