Cyclops

Biography: 

Scott Summers was the youngest child of the Summers siblings, born to Christopher and Katherine Summers.

Early Life: 

Scott grew up primarily in Hawaii with his brother and parents. One day, his father took the family on a plane ride. Tragically, the plane's engine exploded, and Scott's mother--Katherine--pushed the two boys out of the plane with a single parachute. Just in time, Alex's mutant ability surfaced and a beam of concussive energy shot from his chest, slowing the brothers' descent. Scott, however, hit his head in the landing--an event that damage his control over his mutant ability later in life. Scott woke in a hospital bed to see Alex being taken into foster care, which Scott was told would happen to him once he recovered.

Origin: 

Years later, Scott began to get terrible headaches. One day, he went to the bathroom and closed his eyes, splashing water across his face. When that didn't help, Scott opened his eyes, and a beam of red energy fired from his eyes. Not able to make it stop, Scott closed his eyes. That night, Scott's foster home was visited by Professor Charles Xavier. Xavier explained to Scott and his foster parents that Scott was a mutant and thus, carried the mutated X-gene that gives mutants their abilities. Xavier also explained that he could help Scott if he would attend his school--the Xavier School.
