Let’s all put some much-deserved respect on Scott Summers’ name

In the first episode of X-Men ‘97, the sequel to the classic X-Men : Animated Series cartoon, the titular mutant team finds themselves falling through the sky after their plane gets blown up. To stop his descent, team leader Cyclops emits a massive concussive blast from his eyes, slowing his fall and creating a massive crater in the ground. It’s a spectacular showcase of his powers. At this moment, many viewers had a realization— Cyclops is badass.

However, while in mourning for Jean, we do see him let his powers loose at the beginning of X-Men: The Last Stand. For many, the seemingly boring portrayal of Cyclops became the only version that existed. It wasn’t until X-Men ‘97 that people really saw Cyclops as cool again, but this ignores a vital part of the puzzle—the comics. In the past two decades, Cyclops’s comic arc has been anything but boring.
