X-Men \u201997 fans are shocked to learn Cyclops once threatened a cosmic god and won Marvel Studios | Marvel comicsFans are in awe of one particularly impressive Cyclops moment, celebrating when the X-Men leader stood up to a cosmic deity and won in Judgment Day. In the wake of X-Men \u201897, a surprising consensus has emerged: Cyclops is cool! Long-time X-Men fans are feeling vindicated, though. They\u2019ve always thought Cyclops was cool, and now everyone is finally getting to see it. Case in point: a Reddit thread discussing his pivotal moment from the 2022 event A.X.E.: Judgment Day. The thread, started by JPitamus on the Marvel subreddit, is titled \u201cThat one time when Cyclops was facing judgment.\u201d and features pages of Cyclops squaring off against the Progenitor, a Celestial being who was going to destroy the world unless humanity passed his incredibly strict standards for judgment. Cyclops has a particularly badass interaction with the Progenitor. He tells it in no uncertain terms that he doesn\u2019t recognize the Progenitor\u2019s authority and, therefore, that it cannot judge him. In fact, the only person who can judge him is his wife, Jean Grey, whom he happily offers to introduce to the Progenitor. \u201cLook at Cyclops walking and talking like he\u2019s The Rock (from WWE) lol!\u201d Jpitamus says. \u201cI\u2019m still shocked that Steve \u2018Captain America\u2019 Rogers was given the thumbs down though lol\u201d Other fans had a similar reaction, highlighting it as one of the best Cyclops\u2019 moments in recent history. \u201cSaying \u2018I don\u2019t recognize your authority\u2019 to a cosmic power is one of the most Scott Summers things ever.\u201d user Mongoose42 said. \u201cThis is why I love Cyclops, zero f**** given,\u201d spideyjiri added, \u201che has ALWAYS fought against authority, why should this be any different?\u201d \u201cWhen did he get such a massive pair of balls?\u201d fluffynuckels asked, to which troubleyoucalldeew replied, \u201cA case could be made for Whedon\u2019s Astonishing run. Specifically \u2018I want this thing off my lawn\u2019\u201d \u201cScott really went \u2018Don\u2019t care + Didn\u2019t ask + Ask my wife + L venue\u2019\u201d AlphariusUltra added. Interest in Cyclops stems from the X-Men \u201897 premiere episode, in which he uses his optic blasts in ways that animation has typically shied away from. The episode has awakened a renewed interest in Cyclops, who has typically been seen as a stoic and boring character dating back to his earliest appearances. New episodes of X-Men \u201897 air Wednesdays on Disney+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
