MCU X-Men: 10 Comic Book Storylines Marvel Must Adapt

1. Avengers Vs X-Men

Avengers vs X-Men would be the perfect conclusion to a long running series of movies set in motion by House Of M, and would give fans of both teams the opportunity to see them clash in brutal fashion.

Once again focusing on Hope Summers and her being the messiah, the plot revolves around the threat of the Phoenix Force returning, this time coming for Hope. The Avengers assemble against the X-Men, whose leader, Cyclops, refuses to hand her in to protective custody.

Things escalate as the Phoenix Force splits in to five and possess Cyclops, Emma Frost, Colossus, Namor, and Magik, creating the Phoenix Five.

The tensions and battles multiply, with the Avengers sure that Hope is the key to defeating the unchecked power of the Phoenix Five. Before long, Cyclops decides there can be only one Phoenix, and takes the power all for his own.

This would perfectly complete an astonishing arc for Cyclops, who is so driven by his belief in Hope that he becomes the greatest threat for his allies to overcome, and would be a blockbuster to rival any Avengers movie thus far.
