As I said, Cyclops was never meant to be cool. As a fixed part of an ensemble out of whom Wolverine was the
only one who could sustain his own book for long he had a role to play. Heās the guy that barked orders and parroted
on the field what professor Xās vision was.
Iām someone who likes Cyclops. As a kid I was mad at him for the Morph decision longer than I should have been, but as much as a a hardcore Wolverine fan I was, I grew to appreciate him quite a bit.
Cyke had a history of being the up-tight teacherās pet of Professor X, who was more about following the rules than being a good person. And even when they shook it up and basically turned him into a villain, he was still pretty bland.
Cap will never be cool in the social/cultural sense of the word. But he is the absolute standard for being a good, true hero in the Marvel Universeā¦
Or at least he was until they went and pulled this Hydra shit. Worst decision since One More Day.
I meant more in the sense of he doesnāt conform to whatever the current cultural perceptions of ācoolā. Fads, Fashion, etc
Standing up for what is right (and delivering badass oneliners while doing it) will ALWAYS be awesome.
I donāt hate Cyclops, but Cap is superior to him in basically every way that counts.
Xmen is disfunctional AF while the Avengers are like the brady bunch thatās why. You canāt be a proper leader when Wolverine is slipping hairy D to your wife on the side.
If you been keeping up with the books the polar opposite is true now. The 616 Wolverine started up his own school and his behavior become more like classic Cyclops. They drastic change is probably why they killed him off and replaced him with Old Man Logan.
You know, looking at MODOK and thinking about Jamming Bomb nonsense, I can really imagine Loki having some dumb shit if heās in.
Thatās one of the characters Iām really hoping to see. I always wondered how Loki would look in a Vs game. I can just imagine him causing all types of status effects and just being annoying as fuck. Would probably use illusions in his attacks, too. Since Ultron-Sigma has taken over Asgard, itās only right that Loki fights alongside everyone else.
Teen Cyclops is hanging with the Champions because X-Men were about to go to war with the Inhumans and he wanted no part of it. He also hated what his adult self has become and actively trying to do things to ensure he didnāt end up that way.
