Continued From yesterday's cover, we now see which X-Man had to return back to the Seven Soldiers of Victory's era. If there's one member of Xavier's team that deserves better treatment than was received in the Fox movies, it's Scott Summers. Here's hoping Marvel does him justice once he joins the MCU.

Forget the movies, Scott wasn't treated right by Marvel. Emma Frost's lover, Charles Xavier's killer, etc. Scott has a giant target on his back right below the 'kick me' sign.
If memory serves, the figure in the top hat, tails, and red face mask was a Golden Age villain called the Red Dragon. One of those Fu Manchu imitators "born in the Orient but educated in what was the Occident." In his case, one bent on restoring pre-Communist Chins to her Ming Dynasty-era glory. But, like all draconic villains, he had a knight in shining armor for his arch-enemy.
It was the Red Dragon's attempt to loot the mineral wealth of Wamona Valley--presumably somewhere in Asia--that led Sir Justin to join the Law's Legionnaires (as the 7SOV were initially known).
Nice cover, Scott, and nice story; and I really don't have any take on Cyclops at the moment, other than that Marvel Studios' track record of giving characters their due is pretty good.
What I came on to mention was something that came to my mind as I was waking up this morning. I know that Doctor Mid-Nite and Daredevil have met before (once way back in #7, then again in #805, then as co-founders of Blind Justice in #2290, but I had a thought of seeing them in a Silver Age adventure in which they have to protect on Mr. J. Quincy Magoo.
As the Red Dragon's full name was never canonically revealed in the DCU, I would guess that (at least in the Rossverse), he could be one of those shapeshifting Makluans who came to Earth with the original owner of Mandarin's ten rings. One who intermarried with a female Earthling in China...and among whose descendants was a Eurasian woman who married an expatriate American named Summers.
@Cary: Given that Marvel has never officially revealed what happened to Dan Summers after he and Amanda Mueller broke up, that's not entirely impossible.

Fin Fang Foom ?!
More likely, a kissing cousin of him.
Wouldn't it be something if, in the Ross-verse, Jack Kirby's other fire-breathing brainchild, Grogg, proved to be the one who wiped out Jonn Jonzz' people on Mars?
By the way: is it true that STF #3500 comes out the day after Veterans' Day 2021?
I wonder what Prince Valiant would make of Shining Knight's steed....

I wonder what Prince Valiant would make of his descendant Eddie Valiant?
