10 Most Powerful X-Men Who Will Change The MCU Forever
3. Cyclops
Cyclops isn't quite as powerful as his brother, Vulcan, but make no mistake about it: he definitely shouldn't be underestimated. Those optic blasts of his never really stood out in Fox's X-Men Universe, but they can deliver some serious damage, and Scott Summers being a master strategist means he knows how to put them to good use.
His abilities as a leader are, of course, also noteworthy. In fact, it's Cyclops borderline obsessive desire to protect mutantkind that pushed him into the realm of villainy for a while. Becoming a revolutionary of sorts, he did whatever it took to ensure the survival of the X-Men, even if it meant ending relationships and friendships with his closest allies (Wolverine and Beast, for example).
This time around, Cyclops needs to be at the forefront of everything that happens with these characters, and in order to make moviegoers realise that he's different to what came before, his powers definitely need to be portrayed as being as devastating on screen as they are in the comics.
