Batman and Cyclops (Retro)



I thought I would give Cyclops the retro treatment as well.  I understand that the latest event in the X-Men books is some major division between Scott Summers and Wolverine, leading to two dueling X-Teams led by them.  Sounds like more of the same as the X-Men seem to have been splitting up and regrouping for years.  For a nice take on Cyclops, I would recommend the X-Men: Evolution animated series from a few years back.  It features a slightly younger version of the character and gives him a nice arc through the run of the series.

  1. Actually, for sheer visuals, there was a Steve Rude drawn mini-series sometime in the last decade (or late 90's) that I think was called "Children Of The Atom". It retold how the 1963 X-Men group was brought together, replacing the old Jack Of Diamonds back-up stories from the Roy Thomas days.
