      The ironic thing is at the beginning Cyclops was more on Xavier's side, and Wolverine was slightly more on Magneto's. Cyclops believed a lot in mutants playing by society's rules, being quite military like in character, while Wolverine believed mutants shouldn't be held by norms and constraints. However, after house of m, Cyclops had to be a leader and protect his people no matter what, while Wolverine, having been a weapon, didn't want mutants to become a militarised fighting force under any circumstance. Therefore they grew apart in schism.

    Two of my favorite Cyclops moments.
    1. Right after the twelve and after Cyclops was separated from Apocalypse, Wolverine and Cyclops went on a stealth mission to Genosha. Wolverine asked Cyke if he was doing ok while they were in the sewers he seemed a little tense. Cyke said he was fine. Then Wolvy called out two guys around the corner. Cyke ricocheted his beams off 3 walls and took out both dudes with one shot. Come to find out they were both heavy hitters, Blob and Random. Wolvy was like suuure you seem fine to me.

      2. During civil war Iceman, Angel, Beast and Scott broke out of the mansion that was being guarded by sentinels for their "protection". They went to go save a bunch of mutants that didnt register and were inside an adamantium prison. It was like a 5 foot thick adamantium bay door. Cyke opened up his visor like never before a 40 ft wide beem shot from his eyes. Beast begged him to stop the entire time in fear he would kill himself but he kept pushing. He pumched a home in the door. After he made it through he directed his eyes to the sky...he couldnt turn it off. His optic blast just kept going and even getting bigger. There was nothing any of the X-Men could do Scott was already unconscious. Then luckily he heard a voice. Its ok Mr.Summers you saved us you can rest now. It was one of the mutants he saved a little morlock boy named leech. Leeches mutatiin turned his skin green and allow him to turn off other mutants abilities.

    Love the character explained! It’s like a living encyclopedia. So much deeper than most due to the inclusion of what’s simultaneously going on with the company, editors, writers, etc.
    On Cyclops, I’ve always seen him as Captain America for Mutants. Instead of a shield he had his accurate eye beams and he was just as strategic. I really dig the harder core direction...because it was about time.
    To me, Cyclops is the successor of both Magneto and Prof. It was just a matter of direction. Interesting enough, with both those leaders being somewhat renditions of MLK and Malcolm X, the very real question for the post civil rights era was, who are the successors? And what has mainly come about were a lot of commercialized freedom fighters seeking personal glory, a loss of direction, and so much more... not to get political, the point was that for me, Cyclops just adds a dimension to that answer in comic form... and I enjoy him as the answer so much better.

    • @-ucanthandledatruth01-12
      @-ucanthandledatruth01-12 Год назад

      Was a pleasure to read your comment my good brother. I see Cyclops as being way more than Cap America. The main reason being what he was designed for and because of, the answer to both is us....black people. Stan Lee said he created the X-men based off of his observations of how white society were treating (and still do) black society during the civil-rights era, due to us having a gene they don't have and our identity. But said he doesn't like to talk about it as the white psyche is fragile (which to me means unstable), and could've caused him a loss. Remember a particular group of people psychologically, emotionally and verbally attack using the word "ni99a" (9=g) like the non-mutants use "mutie!" against the amazing people we are fascinated by (like in real life......they know this too, otherwise cultural appropriation wouldn't be a key feature in their social structure and operation of oppression and racial operation.
      Scott Summers....this is a man who can absorb and even thrives on sunlight, now think about Stan Lee studying black people, Stan Lee must know about melanin, he gave us a whole franchise based upon his view of social science and a population of a mostly empty, hollow, docile, narcissistic gene-recessive population abusing a race with a mysterious gene. White people are more suited for the cold and have greater difficulty processing and thriving on sunlight. This is a result from a quick Google search but there are plenty videos on youtube and books, lectures, seminars or speeches I could direct you to, brother:
      What percentage of Africans get skin cancer?
      Image result for skin cancer in africa
      Black people are far less likely to develop melanoma than non-Hispanic White people (at a rate of 1 per 100,000 compared to 30 per 100,000) due to the protection that melanin, the body's natural skin pigment, provides from damaging ultraviolet rays.Jul 21, 2022
      Another thing is, we know him being depicted as white was for the narcissism and fragility of white society (we would need to assess and discuss matters of psychology and psychiatry for me to elaborate upon this), so in essence he represents a black person.
      All the mutants are a collective representation of black society in regards to power dynamics (manufactured vs natural power), the weaker group using their minds for malevolence and to oppress mutants who don't believe in themselves and lack guidance and are traumatised by non-mutants' activities against them, most mutants are lost, hiding, trying to blend in and dominated by non-mutants.....white society often react to the damage to their ego by exercising (guess what traits?) narcissism, delusion and denial, even dismissing Stan Lee's own reason for creating X-men, alongside him being an activist and social commentor/critic. They have often strongly said Stan Lee based the X-men on the Jews using their own minds to concoct something to massage their egos as a race of people with a mutual identity and image. Or they say the mutants were based on the struggles on homosexuals.....Brother, like you said, Xavier and Magneto were based upon Great MLK and magnificent Malcolm X, NOT any rabbi or gay community, those things are NOT genetic and not what Stan Lee said as to why and how he made X-men.
      Cyclops to me is the best but I appreciate them all. I like Cyclops because he is a great leader, has so much discipline and control, has compassion and empathy, is honest, is strategic and intelligent, good dress sense and on Marvel Vs Capcom two...YOU CAN NOT TELL ME Cyclops wasn't one of the best fighting game character to ever be presented. He was great in X-men TAS episodes and his attacks against Mr.Sinister are admirable. I even like his telepathic connection with Jean-Grey. Any way my good brother, you seem very insightful and mentioned successors of MLK and Malcolm X, I would like to discuss things further with you if possible?

      Cyke is a telepath babe magnet. He did the nasty with the hottest telepaths in Marvel history on the freakin Astral plane. Even Psylocke flirted with this stud. Even Agent Maria Hill was attracted to him while trying to arrest him. Say what you want about the guy. But Cyclops Was Always Right! Cyclops willingly risks his life knowing he doesn't have any healing power, that if he dies, he dies so mutants can live, both the good and bad.
      If he trains under Batman, Cyclops would be a complete fighter, they'd be a perfect crossover match up. Both are quiet introverts and a hell of a serious and tactical leaders.

As people who grew up in the 60s and 70s got older and regretted not saving that Fantastic Four #1 or whatever-- and also as middle-aged men with money-- they loved the idea of getting some cool #1 issue of some dumb comic, or some gimmicky issue with the foil cover, or bagged, or whatever, and imagine that it would soon be worth thousands. I am going through my collection now and can see that I spent a LOT of money just on X-Force #1 and Spider-Man #1. Why? I don't know. But at some point-- even with cool art (like Todd McFarlane's) or somehow thought-to-be-cool-but-not art (like Rob Liefeld's), the stories were so dumb that it all became uninteresting.
