Now while you ponder that, lets jump into today's list of the Top 10 Strongest Alternate
Versions Of Cyclops
#10 Becoming The Phoenix Now I know this version of Cyclops is from
the 616 continuity, but the storyline arc for Avengers Vs. X-Men saw a tremendous change
in power for Scott Summers.
When the Avengers got wind that the Phoenix Force was attempting to approach Earth again
they stopped at nothing to prevent the X-Men from getting their hands on it.
The X-Men, well mainly Scott believed that the force needed to merge with Hope Summers
to breathe some new life into the mutant race.
Although when Tony Stark tried to stop the Phoenix Force and prevent its destructive
aspects he accidentally split the force into five pieces.
Each of these pieces then merged with the X-men with Cyclops being the only one to hold
onto it for the longest time.
After his allies were defeated, the force would leave them.
With Scott now having the lone power of the Phoenix Force he became inebriated with power
for which he used to oppress those living on Earth.
He was so strong and unstoppable that it took Nova, the Scarlet Witch and Hope Summers just
to stop him
#9 Space Pirate Cyclops This has to be my absolute favorite version
of Cyclops for that name alone.
His sweet name aside though the Space Pirate Cyclops is one strong mutant.
Not only does he fly around in a spaceship as the leader of the Starjammers he also carries
two swords.
Hailing from Earth 1298 this world is flipped on its head, we see heroes become villains
and vice versa.
Except old Scotty Summers is just out in space living that pirate life with a slick grin
on his face The only real difference between this Scott and the others is the lack of control
that he has over his optic blasts.
#8 1602 Coming at you from the Elizabethan era, dont
let his funny name fool you, this version of Cyclops his hella strong.
In this era Scott and his fellow mutants are actually referred to as a witchbreed, which
just like in the 616 makes them outcasts amongst the humans.
He does hold a lot of the same powers and abilities as his 616 counterpart, but imagine
those powers in 1602.
If were viewing this alternate reality of Cyclops in this place and time, he would be
supremely more powerful than anyone else living in that world.
#7 Earth 2182 This version of the X-Men is actually Nocturnes
reality and is said to be set 20 years into the future from the 616.
In this storyline a feud began between Scott and Wolverine after the Shadow King controlled
Wolverine and made him kill Professor X. Cyclops didn't care and no matter what the case was
never could forgive Logan for what he did.
When Scott left the x-men he created his own team and enacted vengeance.
This version of Cyclops was so strong that he almost killed Wolverine.
He too shares a lot of the same powers as his 616 counterpart and along with the usual
visor he wears this version also has a metallic arm that can be used for combat.
#6 Ultimate X-Men Hailing from earth 1610 and making his first
appearance in the 2001 issue of Ultimate X-Men #1, this universe explored the x-men origins
set in the 21st century.
Although this universe is very similar to the 616 continuity its not entirely identical.
The team of x-men in this issue are actually younger and therefore have less experience
saving the world from evil.
For the most part the mutants have maintained their power levels, except for Scott Summers.
The Cyclops in Ultimate X-Men started taking this growth hormone called Banshee which as
a result dramatically increased his powers and abilities.
Usually Cyclops can only fire those energy blasts from his eyes, but while on Banshee
he is able to harness this energy and use it differently.
While on the growth hormone Scott could fly and super power his punches for a bigger impact
overall.
#5 Earth 64894 First appearing in the What if?
Volume 2 #64 this alternate version of Scott Summers has similar abilities to that of his
616.
Except in this reality Tony Stark sold his iron-man technology which than began a new
arms race that ultimately led to the building of strongers
Sentinels meant for hunting mutants.
A lot of the X-Men were killed, except for Cyclops.
The real strength of this version of Scott comes from when Magneto attacked the United
Nations plus threatened to end all of mankind.
Cyclops was so strong that he felt confident enough to confront Magneto with the small
team of x-men that he had left.
Eventually the team was overwhelmed, but the important thing to mention here is that Cyclops
was the last mutant standing.
Even in his final moments his last words were promising that Magneto would be stopped.
#4 Earth 295
In this reality Charles Xavier has been long gone ever since being murdered by his son
from the future.
This resulted in the Age of Apocalypse which meant that humanity was nearing its extinction.
In this world Scott is actually known as Prelate Summers which comes from a rank he acquired
while working in the army for Apocalypse.
The main difference between this Scott and the 616 is that he is a literal cyclops in
the Earth 295 universe.
In this alternate reality Cyclops is an alpha mutant which gives him the ability to absorb
energy from his environment and then store it within his cells.
His energy eye blasts are so strong that he can destroy adamantium and has even blown
off the hand of Weapon X.
#3 Corporal Scott Many of these alternate realities bare a striking
resemblance to the mainstream 616 universe, but in the TRN 231 continuity things are pretty
different.
This timeline placed the mutants in a pivotal role for the American Civil War era.
Scott Summers worked his way through the armies ranks very fast and played a key role in turning
the tides during the war.
Corporal Summers didn't stop there though, he was so powerful that eventually his new
mission became hunting down evil alternate reality versions of Xavier.
#2 Basilisk This version of Scott Summers is from Earth
11326 and at the tender age of 14 he first discovered his powers completely by accident.
A horrendous accident at that.
While watching a movie in a theatre Scotts lasers blasted from his eyes killing seven
people along with his own parents.
He was then transferred to Alcatraz, which is where the prison governor Arcade discovered
that using ruby quartz would help Scott control his powers.
He was then fitted with this terrifying looking mask with the ruby quartz as lenses and to
make things more terrifying his eyelids were also removed.
His powers in this alternate reality though were used for nefarious means, as the Basilisk
Cyclops was in charge of executing mutant inmates in the prison.
#1 Cyclops Deathlok The deadly combination of Cyclops with the
Deathlok technology was on full display in his very first appearance of the Uncanny X-Force
#5 in the Earth 11045 continuity.
The Cyclops Deathlok is the reanimated corpse of Scott Summers and as such still maintains
the same powers that Cyclops has.
However with the Deathlok machinery controlling Cyclops using a computer brain and augmented
bionic body parts his powers were not just maintained, but greatly enhanced.
The bionic parts not only added to his arsenal, but through its link to artificial intelligence
Cyclops was even protected from psychic assaults.
And that has been the Top 10 Strongest Alternate Versions Of Cyclops.
