Fans of Cyclops (myself included) will be VERY pleased to learn that he seemingly survives the final chapter of Avengers Vs. X-Men! However, is a villainous turn on the cards for the man who recently slaughtered Charles Xavier while under the influence of the Phoenix Force? Why else is he fighting his younger self on the covers of issues #3 and #4 of All-New X-Men? Well, it looks like we'll have to wait until November to find out, but this promises to be a very interesting development for the character in the Avengers-centric Marvel NOW! relaunch. Many thanks to Comic Book Resources for the images below.

I dont want scott to die, he was always a fav. however, i wouldnt mind seeing him kinda start crossing the line a bit more, and eventually find his way back!

Either way, "Old Cyclops" is screwed! Either he dies, or he never exists. Seems like a shitty catch-22 to me! Unless of course he is just stopped, captured, and subdued, but where's the fun in that?

He has to become a villain, it'd be the greatest downfall in all of comic books, it's almost a Shakespearean tragedy (not really, but in terms of comics)

I figured he would live through AvX, I'm glad it's confirmed. Too bad Marvel is making him the asshole of the Marvel Universe(for now anyway). I loved the development of Cyclops since Astonishing X-Men & House Of M.

I would say Scott Summers becomes a villian. I like Scott as a good superhero, but it would make things intresting.

@damntree

Younger scott doesn't really have the "advantage" of youth I don't think. Yes he's younger, but because of the way "Marvel Time" has worked, it's only been about 10-12 years. So we're talking about an 18 year old fighting his 30 year old self. And not just 12 years of couch sitting, but working out and increasing skill. I'm 28 and could crush my 18 year old self cause I never stopped lifting and cardio.

Young Scott's gonna have to pull another card to win hand-to-hand.

They're clearly not bringing young scott in just to die or lose, but for those of you who think Older scott killing younger scott means killing himself. It's been well established that anytime time-travel occurs, unless you do it in a specific way that Dr. Doom does, it only creates an alternate time line. Cyke wouldn't literally be killing his past self, but an alternate version on himself.

Maybe it's training? I'm sure there's some trick Cyclops wishes he knew when he was young and inexperienced.

I can't figure out how Jean Greay is possesed by Phoenix goes crazy and is killed and she is beloved. But Cyclops is possesed by the Phoenix and he is a hated villain even after he is cleansed. If you always hated Cyke I get it but I can't believe the hate the Phoenix 5 have gotten. IT WASN'T THEM IT WAS PHOENIX.
