Cyclops

Scott Summers is a mutant with the ability to fire destructive optic beams from his eyes. As the first X-Man, Cyclops, he has ascended from superhero field leader to a mutant revolutionary icon. The firstborn son of Major Chris Summers, he witnessed alongside his brother Alex the apparent murder of his parents by the hands of the Shi'ar Emperor D'ken. As an introspective orphan and in the clutches of the nefarious Mister Sinister, his deadly powers first manifested. After escaping Sinister's orphanage, Summers was rescued by Professor Xavier, a fellow mutant who ran a school aimed at helping mutants to control their uncanny abilities.

As the leader of Xavier's X-Men, a task force with the goal of ensuring peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants, Cyclops guided other mutants in countless missions and adventures, and even became the headmaster of Xavier's School. When mutantkind was on the brink of extinction, Cyclops gradually transformed the X-Men into a more extremist faction to ensure the survival of his species, even going to war against the Avengers during the coming of the Phoenix to Earth, an event that cost the life of his former mentor Xavier. As a revolutionary leader, Cyclops has become an iconic figure for all of mutantkind, amalgamating aspects of Xavier's dream and Magneto's ideals
