Respect: Cyclops...

pr1983

Cyclops...

Optic Blasts...

His blasts arent solar in nature... yes he absorbs solar energy, but what happens is the solar energy opens a dimensional portal in his eyes. The portal opens to a universe that consists of nothing but the ruby coloured energy he fires. The energy escapes through his eyes, creating an optic blast. The blasts do NOT give off heat or radiation, they are pure concussive force, nothing else...

Speed and Accuracy...

In Uncanny X-Men #93 Cyclops fights Quicksilver, and Quicksilver himself remarks that only his speed saved him from being hit by Cyclops...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439135937500quicksilvers speed.jpg

In Uncanny X-Men #124, while trapped in murderworld, Cyclops clears out a room of machines with just one blast...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439154687501murderworld.jpg

Uncanny #144, using only one optic blast he sinks every ball on a pool table...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439176562502pool.jpg

In Uncanny #152, he deflects his blast off three surfaces to hit Sebastian Shaw, and push him towards the waiting Colossus...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439187500003Sebastian Shaw.jpg

In Uncanny #170, he flips a coin, and blasts the centre out of it, leaving only the outer edge intact...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439203125004coin.jpg

In X-Men #112, he fires, deflecting his blast round a corner to take out two waiting enemies...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439228125005corner.jpg

Again in X-Men #112, he fires past Magneto, hitting Magneto's helmet, which rebounds and strikes Magneto...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439260937506magnetos helmet.jpg

X-Men #137, he fires, breaking Redneck's nose but not causing any other damage, then he fires a second blast that breaks Radian's leg...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439298437507NewX-Men137-13.jpg

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439309375008NewX-Men137-15.jpg

His visor...

Even though the most common way Cyclops activates his visor is by pressing a button beside his ear, he has on occasion used other means...

Uncanny X-Men #93, he fires his blasts simply by opening his eyes after keeping them closed for a prolonged amount of time... not exactly practical but it works..

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4439323437509prolonged time.jpg

Uncanny X-Men #95, Cyclops opens his visor by simply opening his eyes fully...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44393437500010visor opening.jpg

In Uncanny X-Men #96, he does the same again...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44393625000011visor opening1.jpg

In New X-Men #114, he casually stands firing at a sentinel with his hands at his sides...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4493981250000visor opening2.jpg

People may argue that these instances could be attributed to the artists' habits, but i believe there are far too many instances to discount the possibility that his visor may open without the side button being pressed, that the button itself is merely used to change the intensity of the blast...

at least thats my theory...

Hand to Hand/Powered Combat...

In Uncanny X-Men #127, he baits Wolverine into attacking him because of his fear of Wolverine's ability against Proteus, and Cyclops holds his own, even dodging Logan's Claws...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4494014062501claws.jpg
http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4494053125002claws1.jpg

In Uncanny #175, defeats 6 x-men who believe he is phoenix... he defeats them all over the course of several pages, and with cracked ribs to boot...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44940937500031 v 6 part 1.jpg
http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44941187500041 v 6 part 2.jpg
http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44941421875051 v 6 part 3.jpg
http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44941734375061 v 6 part 4.jpg
http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/44941968750071 v 6 part 5.jpg

In X-Men #112, he takes on a room full of armed soldiers and defeats them all in seconds...

http://www.thefreeimagehosting.com/Uploads/Images/4494223437508roomfin.jpg

While not all these are combat based events, these pictures do show an amazing versatility and mastery of his powers.

wuTa

in ultimate x-men#1 has button on his wrist that he pushes that fires off a blast against a sentintal

ScarletSpider

Another theory to account for firing his blasts is that it has a cybernetic part to it. Much like Falcon's or Nighthawk's jetpack controls, or Iron Man's armor controls.

I would be in favor of him having a sensor in his glove that would open the visor somehow, too.

Other people re: Cyke...

Wolverine:

"The kid's name is Scott Summers. My 'kid' I'm talking about the mutant with the ruby quartz visor...You wouldn't know it to look at Summers. but he may be one of the most powerful mutants on the face of the planet. Not just 'cause of the optic blast he developed in his teens. That's impressive and all, sure- the guy can damn near punch a hole in a mountain just by starin' at it. But no, his real power has got nothin' to do with his mutant abilities. The guy's a leader- a natural born a leader as there ever was. Like his namesake, Cyclops he sees the world in a singular vision; Heroes win Villians lose. In his world where everything is tinted red, he still manages to see things in black and white. Yeah, I've been known to give him a hard time- maybe more than once-but even an old warhorse like me knows a leader when I see one. And this Scott Summers, the guy in change of the X-men? I'd follow him into Hell if he said he needed me."

Jade Lightning

Cyclops has long been my favorite X-man, but reccently I've caught the Wolverine fever as well, though I still like Spiderman better, but now I remember why I liked Cyclops so much and have always had faith in him.

That's why I hate the way the leader of the xmen is protrayed on screen, like a little whiney wuss.

* X-men #44, Sept. 1995 - Cyke leads the remaining Acolytes, pretty impressive how they found there way home by Cyke's exceptional leadership...

* Factor X #3, May 1995 - one-eyed Cyke cuts a monster in two, at point blank range...

* Uncanny X-men #339, Dec. 1996 - wrestles with Havok and outsmarting him by blasting his "anti-grav unit"...

* X-men #23, Aug. 1993 - fights the Dark Riders all by himself... i believe this comic was the first issue where the 3rd Summers brother was mentioned, c/o Mr. Sinister, correct me if i'm wrong...

* don't know the issue, but there's a comic where Cyke defeats the Mother Sentinel, Mastermold, by outsmarting it...

I've no idea... but yeah, one of the goodies...

pr1983

Alright, i know its a double post, but...

Your truly was asked to and just wrote the 'impressive feats' section on the Cyclops page on wikipedia...

Here's the link...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclops_%28comics%29#Impressive_Feats

Now, i only linked to stuff i had posted the scans of, but if you guys dont mind i'd like to take some of the other stuff, or you guys could add it yourself...

yestinchong

I would definitely add in the scans/info about Cyke blasting a hole in Blob's shoulder as an entry in Wikipedia.

I'd also add some stuff in from his mini-series called Retribution where he takes on MasterMold and an army of drones.....and come to think about it, there's a great scene in X-Factor #14-ish where Cyke fights MM again all by himself (unless you count two cops with guns) as help. That issue really showed how tactical Scott was - he was literally going mad about Maddie at the time and was berating all sorts of people (including Prof X), but still came up with a way of saving one officer (the other one got zapped pretty quick before Cyclops could do anything) AND wiping out MM. Good stuff.

And nobody has mentioned or put in a scan of X-Factor 68-ish???

The issue where Scott plans for the team to be captured by Apocalypse and the Inhumans are there as back-up to pull off a surprise attack? In that issue not only does old Blue Lips praise Scott for his battlefield tactics (another multi-surface blast), he also gets decimated at the end by one hella big optic blast. When i think about it, i can't think of ANY one X-Man that has ever been able to do that to Apocalypse. Please correct me if i am wrong though.....

If only i had a scanner, would put them on myself....

Kid Kurdy

I said it before and I'll say it again : Cyclops is a cool and underrated character.

yestinchong

I've been thinking of a few other things that Scotty has done over the years.....once again, sorry i can't show the actual feats themselves, but at least i can remember the rough issues so people can have a look.

In the very same Proteus saga (just before Dark Phoenix saga starts in UXM) where Cyke gives Storm, Wolverine and Nightcrawler a "test-run", he also uses his optic blasts as a "pulse" to prevent Wolverine from splatting on the ground after being chucked off a cliff. A very inventive use of his blasts i think.

X-Factor issue 24-ish (the issue where the team have to fight a newly formed Archangel and the Horsemen) - Cyke demonstrates a remarkable agility - he flips off a statue to get into the air, lands on War's horse and then blasts directly into its mouth (he is aware that War's armour is immune to his blasts). While it certainly got rid of War, i also have to question Scott's tactics here.....he was gonna be a pancake on the fround if not for Jean's intervention....or maybe he knew she was there....

X-Men Unlimited:

Issue 1: shearing the Blackbird in half.....what a scene! Someone scan that one in if they can! Don't forget, when Sienna Blaze hit the Blackbird just before this, she didn't shear it in half, but took out it's engines (and other various systems). Cyke clean blows it in half. If i'm being objective, there is a proximity advantage though, but either way, that's an impressive feat, taking Storm (and arguably the Prof) by surprise.

Issue 40-something (ah, i can't remember): a very short story where Cyke is in the supermarket and is jumped by three mercenaries wearing rubyquartz armour (the backstory is that someone has paid a vast quantity of money to get hold of Scott's eyes). He quickly cottons on to them being immune and changes his tactics accordingly. One is taken out by a falling ceiling, the other is rendered useless as Scott blasts the right ingredients in the market to dissolve the armour (now that's impressive) and the final one.....well, i THINK what Cyke does is actually disintegrate the armour with his blasts anyway.....this issue also shows how he CAN fire off multiple blasts at the same time (he fires three thin beams at different parts of the merc's armour) - and this was with his glasses only.....imagine what he can do with his visor....

Some more....

Another X-Men Unlimited Issue (again, can't remember the number, sorry) that has been thrown around a lot in these forums: it's the one where Scott is walking home in the snow and gets jumped by 6 street thugs. he loses his specs, but instead of opening his eyes and laying waste to them, he fights them "blind". What is even more impressive while he does this feat is the fact that he is mentally keeping track of what movements he is making, so at the end of this very one-sided fight, he backtracks his stpes and picks up his specs. I think respect is most certainly due there.

More "blind" fighting: in his limited series where he fights Ullyses and that rather badluy named monster called the Visigon (oh dear), Scott takes a sword with him and does a good job of slicing and dicing the monster, all the while relying on his other senses (he was blinfolded again). This issue also demonstrates his athleticism again.

Initiative: as well as all the plans he as ever made in his time as leader, a few stand out to me. One is in the Onslaught saga. While Prof/Onslaught hybrid is gloating and toying with the X-Men (reverting Wolverine to a child like state, inducing claustrophobia in Storm), it's Cyke that takes the first proactive step and lets loose a blast in to Onslaught. Bear in mind that this is one of the most powerful telepaths out there - and yet still he comments on being surprised by Scott's attack. To me this shows:
a) Cyke's blasts are faster than thought itself
b) Cyke thinks pretty quick himself (although i think most people think at the same speed, it's their bodily reaction to the thought that dictates an action)
c) Both of the above
d) I'm plain wrong!

X-Men Volume 2, issue 7-8ish.....the X-Men help out Maverick and are breaking out of a building.....Cyke tells Beast to call the Blackbird into place, to which Hank's reply is something like, "Ok, but how will we get to it...?". He stops mid-sentence and says, "Oh", as Cyke is one step ahead and blasts a hole in the roof to allow for the Blackbird's entry....

More!

There have always been examples of how hard Scott pushes himself in the Danger Room - more than any other X-Man.
- In the issue of UXM leading up to Onslaught being revealed, he is all on his own fighting off drones and (randomly) spiky balls falling out of the sky. It's a short scene, but the monologue by the writer tells us that Scott pushes himself more than anyone else...
- Another UXM, this time just before the Twelve climax.....Scott's once again staying up late and going through more training sequences....
- An older UXM, somewhere in the late 100s if i am not mistaken: Logan is waiting for Scott to finish a training session, and Cyke does this by firing off a multi-angled beam that hits the shut-off switch. Logan makes a backhanded compliment to this, but for the life of me i can't remember what it is. Actually, Scott has done this multi-bounce trick a number of times, people have posted pics on this thread already....
- In one of the more recent X-Men Unlimited issues (after it rebooted at #1 again), Havok is seen taking out a Sentinel in the Danger Room.....the Room, to Alex's disdain, tells him that the record for the quickest Sentinel destruction is held by his older bro....

Colossus Vs. Optic Blast: a big one for debate i think.....let's see.

In a very early issue of the All New, All Different team, a fake Angel removes Scott's visor and lets loose at Colossus. Although Colossus says it will not stop him, his internal thought bubble shows that Cyke's optic blasts are hurting/burning him.

In the Arcade/Murderworld run (UXM 120-ish), Colossus is brainwashed into thinking he is working for the Russian state as the "Proletarian". He fights Wolverine and Cyke.....and Scott is seen thinking to himself that if he went all out on Piotr he would "cripple him....or worse".

UXM 160-ish: a Brood infected Cyke develops a wider range of blast and lashes out at Colossus. Instant KO.

Hey, yestinchong. Good job here with the Cyclops respect. I agree, he's very underrated. I've always loved Slim myself.

Kudos, dude. rock

yestinchong

Yeah, it's probably a little obvious he's the X-Man i like the most. Let's see, a few more examples while i'm at work and it's relatively quiet...

Control:

- UXM: waaaay back in the first 5 issues or so (my money is on issue 5) Cyclops cuts a Birthday cake with his blasts for Jean (to which her comment was to say it was basically a bit of overkill).
- In another very early issue of UXM, where they meet and fight the Avengers for the first ever time (these are all re-issues that i own), Scott is asked by Prof to use his blasts to break the key mechanism in a huge bomb created by Lucifer. He has to create an extremely thin beam down the whole depth of this bomb (which happens be at least 20 feet high if memory serves me well) in order to knock out the one part....and does he do it? Haha, what do you think? The funny thing is that Prof really is talking crap in this scene, telling Cyke to adjust here, aim by a few degrees there.....hahah....
- Sabertooth: In The Red Zone: Scott pops a lock by pencil beaming his blasts, with glasses on (not visor).
- Cyclops Mini #1: he ruptures a car's petrol tank at the correct point to allow for it to explode. This is while he's doing a standing forward somersault....crazy.....

In answer to the "white" optic blast: that was an ANNUAL to UXM, one of the very early ones (ie maybe 4 or 5). Basically, while the X-Men are fighting on Arkon's world, Cyke effectively drains his powers out (if memory serves me well, this is actually the last time i have ever read about him draining his powers out through overuse - has he outgrown this now???). And because the solar power that allows him to channel the extradimensional energy better is NOT the same as Earth's, he can't recharge very quickly. Solution? He takes a full on lightning blast from Storm, uses that energy to catalyse the production of his optic blast energy, and thus produces this vaunteed "white beam". The monologue from the writer (Claremont?) suggests that Cyke being given that lightning bolt would be akin to "a fine petrol engine running on diesel". I know i am not fully right on that quote, but it was something like that.

As a side note, Arkon (who started off fighting the X-Men at the beginning of the issue) remarks that what Cyclops is doing was one of the most amazing things he had seen. Again, someone is gonna have to verify that for me, i don't have the issue at hand and my memory is crap.

yestinchong

Talking of Storm, i also read a lot about who would win in a fight between these two. The simple answer is the winner would be decided by the writer of the comic. However, these two have squared off in the past....

1. UXM # 155-ish: the issue where Scott finds out Corsair is his father and they face off the Sidri with Storm. Scott and O are having an impromptu game of patball - and by the looks of things, are very evenly matched. In the end, the score is tied, and Storm concedes that Scott is still "the best". What people can read into that (seeing as it was years ago) and the fact that it was only a game is entirely up to them.....but it does show how evenly matches these two are.

2. UXM #201: a Storm fan's favourite to quote when they want to lay a whole load of hate on Cyclops! Let's look at it a little more closely. Storm was powerless. Cyclops was using his lowest power beams. Storm could dodge his blasts, but my opinion (and it's only that) is that she was reading his intentions and dodging those. She isn't otherwise fast enough to dodge a blast. Scott was thinking about other things in that issue (Maddie for one) - and as we all know, it was revealed later that she was messing with his mind during that fight (this is where the Storm fans begin to call it "retconning".....ah well, it's all opinions). Storm "wins" the fight because she manages to remove his visor, thus rendering Scott unable to continue for fear of pulverising her. Would she do that in a real fight situation? I highly doubt it. If she did get that close to Cyclops, i am sure she would have opted for an incapacitating blow. Either way, there is balance in both arguments. Storm was powerless and still "won". Cyclops' wasn't going all out either and was affected by Maddies (a fact that Wolvering picks up on by saying something wasn't right).

3. UXM # 175: a Cyclops' fan's favourite to use when they want to lay a whole load of hate on Storm! Everyone knows the scene: the team think Scott is Dark Phoenix and so attack him, he has broken ribs already from Colossus, and he succeeds in nailing Ororo with a blast. Of note is that Storm is under MIND CONTROL and even Scott notes she hesitates a bit. Nevertheless, he tags her. My opinion is this - if a Storm fan uses the fact that Scott hit her because she was being influenced, then it is only fair to say the same when they have their battle in #201. Heh. So go figure.

4. Inferno Saga: a brief skirmish between the two. This time both Storm and Cyke are either:
a) Not under mind control by the influences of Maddie
b) Or they both are

(ie. As far as i am concerned, they are on equal ground)

Storm has her powers back at this point. Wolverine and Archangel are fighting (might i add that Logan's getting beaten IMO), and Cyclops tells Warren to back off while Storm does the same to Wolverine. They then shout at each other a bit, and then Storm opts to use a gust of wind to knock Cyclops back. Bear in mind, from the way that they were arguing with each other, i don't think they were necessarily going to come to blows, but Storm takes the initiative and attacks first. Despite this, and while in the air, Scott successfully tags Storm again.....

To me, this is the only real fair reflection on how these two might fight if all parameters were equal (ie. NO MIND CONTROL FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!). Either they were both affected or they weren't....

5. X-Men volume 2, #65-ish: Scott, once again UNDER MIND CONTROL (can't these X-Men stop it???) atacks Storm, who promptly kicks his ass. no doubt about it.

So, these are the times the two main leaders of the X-Men have come to blows. A lotta mind control in there though.....who would win? My money is on Cyclops. I have a natural bias, but i feel that the nature of his powers is always more instantaneous than Storm's. People may quote that she can produce weather effects in the blink of an eye - but to that, i say that it has been written in the Dark Phoenix saga that Cyclops fires his beams at the speed of thought. So go figure. Are the writers engagign in hyperbole? Almost certainly. And when you rationalise and look at how their powers work, i still think Cyclops has a speed advantage with is powers, and thus takes the win.....

yestinchong

More cool uses of his power.....

- Judgement War (a run of about 8 issues in the 50s of the first X-Factor run): about to be trodden on by a Celestial (and realising his optic blast ain't gonna do diddly-squat against something so powerful), Cyclops improvises and blasts a mini trench which he can fall into instead of being flattened by a Celestial foot.

- UXM #280 (or the issue or two just before the start of the Blue and Gold teams): Gambit gets nailed by Cyke's blast. Nothing special you might think, and don't forget Gambit was under control by the Shadow King - but it's the comment that Jubilee makes "Never seen anyone tag him before" that stands out.....Cyclops must be pretty damn accurate with those blasts.

- X-Men: The Hidden Years: similar to the feat he performed in X-Men #44 (where he makes a massive pathway through the mountain), Scott is seen doing this again to create an upwards sloping passageway for everyone to escape from a lava flow. This feat knocks him out though.....whereas something similar in Australia didn't - suggesting he has improved in energy output over the years? Who knows?

- UXM 144-ish: the title of the issue is "Cry D'spayre!". Cyclops improvises very very well to beat D'Spayre, who was previously intangible and able to make a person feel as fearful and "in despair" as they can - not only does Scott pull through that low (haha, i think he did this by jumping out of a window and getting out of proximity of the effects), he also draws on his past loss of Jean to attract D'spayre into physical form, thus allowing him to be rugby tackled by Scott.....

- Post Onslaught, UXM #335 or 336: in this issue we see Scott destroy his alarm clock, bounce a beam off a mirror twice (once to accidentally hit Beast, and again on purpose to hit Iceman). How he decides when he wants a beam to bounce insted of pulversise i have no idea, but he seems very capable either way. Best line in this issue comes from Hank - "I think you are going to have to consider blasting the tub".

I was referring initially to that Unlimited X-Men issue where you already have the scans of Cyke firing three blasrts from his glasses against those ruby quartz clad men. Next time i pop back, i will dig it out and get the issue number for you.

As for Unlimited #1, i do own a scanner now, but for some reason it won't allow me to upload my pics onto this site. I also don't have the issue on me (this is also in my parents' home).

HOWEVER!!

Try this link out:

For some reason i am able to put my pics on this site, and i have finally manage to put the picture of Cyke taking out Apocalypse with that yellow optic blast onto this webpage. You'll see it as the 3rd pic along on the gallery. Here's hoping you get it, let me know....

I'm also going to submit a link to this in the "Cyclops' Eye Blasts topic, so everyone can see it....

Secondly: pr1983 - the images on this thread of Cyclops in the supermarket fighting the men in ruby quatz armour. I checked it out, and it is definitely Unlimited X-Men issue 47. The cover has Psylocke on the front.....

Hey, i remember that issue...an UXM Annual, right? The one that has the words, "Ooh la la...Badoon!", or something very odd to that effect.

There's also an issue in the Dark Phoenix Saga, the one where Dazzler is introduced to them, where it says that he can fire with "the suddeness of thought". Meaning, he thinks and the beams come out just as quickly. That's another one to add to the list of things i'll find when i head off to my comics collection....

I finally went back and picked up some older comics from my folks' place. I found another little gem that stated that Scott's blasts do indeeed move at the speed of light.....the images will be up in a bit...

yestinchong

Ok, there's a whole load of new pics of Cyclops i've put on....

http://www.twango.com/channel/yestinchong.public

It's still playing up a bit and the order is not what i wanted it to be, but there's 14 new pics on there, with some more to come when i get the chance to.

- There's three pics from an old UXM Annual, where you can see Cyclops firing off the white optic blast after absorbing Storm's lightning. Of note from this same issie, it states that his blasts do move at light-speed. Hmmm....although i doubt that won't end the arguments from people. Like i said in an old post, look at the comment Arkon makes about courage....it's Respect within a Respect Thread!

- Then there's several pics from Marvel Comics Presents issues 17-24, where the title of the story is called "Cyclops: Retribution". This is yet another fight between Cyke and MM, where he does pretty well (the back story is that he has been infected by a virus that is slowly killing him).

When i get the chance to, i'll put up an even better (IMO) fight between Cyke and MM from X-Factor issue 14.

Enjoy!

pr1983

Seems the pics i'd posted have either expired or are about to, so i'll get em sorted as soon as i can...

yestinchong

Yup, and the same link i provided just two posts above now has X-Factor issue 14 added to it - although i have no idea why the site insists on changing the order of the pictures as i wanted them to be. Eithe way, he takes out MM pretty well. The most impressive blast is probably the one shown from behind Cyke, where he completely knocks MMapart such that only the head and an arm are left....i personally think this goes to show that Cyclops holds back a LOT on living opponents....but look at his showings against Sentinel based opposition where he doesn't seem to mind cutting loose a bit, and it's a different story...

Uh, how do you know it was full force? Do you really think Rogue tried to blast Wolverine away? She said she must be generating Cyke's optic blasts, so I don't think she was going full power at Wolvie.

He's not hit in the face either.

He wasn't braced against the blast, but I doubt he was fully suprised by it. Besides, this is Cyclops' respect thread. WTF has your comment to do with anything?

her hand was in front of her face, and it wasnt even that big a blast...

full force? not a chance...

Awsome scans, thanks.

PS capt it up: Rogue doesn't need optic blasts to destroy wolverine. wink

yestinchong

And from reading those scans, you can see that it was saying that Rogue absorbs part of that person's powers. Key word being "part". As the scan clearly states, she has a "measure" of Wolverine's healing factor: stands to reason then that she wouldn't necessarily have the full output of Scotty's blasts either.....

And it's still enough to KO poor Logan.

Uncanny X-Men Annual #3 -Arkon

The combined effort of Storm, Colossus and Cyclops help recharge the fading energy sphere that provides light and warmth to a planet.
Storm goes for broke and calls down as much lightning as she can sustain within herself(She has a limit to how much her body can filter and sustain without being overloaded) and then holds it for as long as possible. Colossus acts as a ground and makes sure none of Storms power is wasted. She then transfers the collected energy into Cyclops who metabolizes it and charges up Tony Starks machine, which restores the energy sphere surrounding the planet.

seriously though, how spur of the moment the plan was, and how good it was, really make me think he's pushing cap in terms or being the best leader in marvel...

its possible, but im not sure... i've always considered him to be wishing he could control his powers so he wouldnt need the visor anymore...

even assuming he consciously stopped controlling his powers at a young age, nowadays he has a good life (as well as can be expected compared to his childhood), i think he'd be more than happy to get rid of it...

also, is it me, or did emma look genuinely scared at the end of the issue? like she'd awakened some sort of monster by giving him his powers back (assuming she was the one stopping him)?

also also stick out tongue

, if it was him just refusing to use his powers till the right moment, thats a hell of a clever move on his part, fooling the enemy into thinking he was weak until he could get where he wanted...

Agree. And I don't think she's exactly scared, she's shocked of what's happening...

But Cyclops= thumb up

in that issue. Now it's proven that White Queen always gets the best.

I'd say she's either relieved that Scotts alright(Post Torture and the Prison Schematic Mental Upload) and that he has finally worked out the issues they discussed in AXM #14 or that something might have gone wrong. I'd go with the former
