10 Worst Things Cyclops Has Ever Done

4. Cheating On Emma Frost With Jean Grey's Memory

Cyclops Worst things

In a move that is stunningly unsurprising to anyone who's aware of Scott's frankly depressing relationship history, Scott goes from cheating on his wife Jean Grey, to fantasising about Jean while being with Emma - after Jean dies.

It's a bit of a mixed bag - as Emma does repeatedly use her psychic abilities to look like Jean around Scott, purposefully playing into his fantasies surrounding his first love - which naturally creates an incredibly weird dynamic between the two when Jean herself is removed from the situation.

Their entire relationship involves Cyclops focusing on Jean and not on Emma - made even more awkward by the fact that Frost can read his mind, and so is aware that she is playing second fiddle to his dead ex.

Ultimately, it seems as though Scott really should have spent some time recovering from the trauma of Jean's death instead of moving straight into things with Emma, as it seems exceedingly cruel to continually daydream of another woman in front of your psychic girlfriend.
