A staggering number of mutants have populated the X-Men since their conception. Mutants, young and old, powerful and meek, abrasive and kind, and all others in between have lent their talents and skills to the group of vigilante heroes. Of all the mutants that have stood in the ranks of the X-Men, though, few have become as iconic or famous as Scott Summers, aka Cyclops. The first leader of the team, Cyclops, was for many years the stalwart pillar of the X-Men. But as famous as Cyclops is, another mutant in his shadow never quite got the same amount of star power as the X-Menâs monocular leader. It also doesnât help that this other mutant just so happens to be Cyclopsâ brother, Havok.Alex Summers is the younger brother of Scott Summers and, like Scott, is a mutant. Scottâs powers manifest as ruby beams of concussive energy emitted from his eyes; Alexâs powers allow him to absorb ambient cosmic energy and release it as plasma blasts. The history between Scott and Alex is complicated, as are all relationships and histories in the Summers family; they have never become outright foes or villains towards each other, but as brothers, theyâve often been at odds with one another. Scott and Alexâs relationship isnât terrible, but it definitely isnât perfect either.Both boys were taken into the State Home for Foundlings, an orphanage in Omaha, Nebraska. It was here that Scott and Alex would be subjected to a series of events that would shape the rest of their lives. The evil Mister Sinister began experimenting with Scott, believing him to be stronger than Alex; as such, he had Alex adopted out to another family, far away from his brother.
