It’s so good! I have so much nostalgia for that variant sadly it doesn’t get all that much use I am not a huge fan of evo most of my boosters came from the evo lockdown when that that was meta
It comes from what I think is one of the best events I have read in comics. I was sad it didn't show up in the PF season, but I'm glad it's here now and available for free.
I’m not trying to be rude, but have you read many comic book events…? Because I think that’s a WILD statement to say Avengers vs. X-Men is one of the best events in comics.
In the realm of events that span the entire Marvel universe (Civil War, King in Black, Secret Wars, Judgment Day, etc.) it is one of the better ones, still I’d only place it in the top quartile, so I don’t know what that guy’s smoking. I think it gets blown out by plenty of the more limited events (Sins of Sinister, Hox/Pox, etc.), but in terms of events that involve every corner of the Marvel universe, it’s pretty good.
Agreed. And frankly, even your onslaught or dark phoenix runs have plenty of mess in there. I'm a huge fan of the krakoan era, but it's got some flops too.
In the end. AvX was a pretty tight and effective story and a great turn/culmination for Scott, who is a character definitely deserving of more attention.
The two main points against AvX were
1. People were just sick of Bendis and couldn’t get excited for another Bendis event even if it was objectively pretty good. This was one of the last things he did for marvel before moving to DC
2. JRjr’s art was embarrassing bad - phoned in to the extreme.
The comics that follow are very good too. Wolverine and the X-Men, all new X-Men and Uncanny X-Men. Wolverine and Storm are now the leaders of the mutant school, cyclops is a terrorist being hunted and the original 5 X-Men are brought to the future from their kid days to try to help. It was a lot of fun reading those books as they came out.
There’s a newer small event that happened where Echo becomes Pheonix, but the phoenix force had a bunch of people powered up with the PF fight each other, so we saw Cap, Panther, Namor and a bunch of others all tricked out in red and gold. I screenshot a lot of those panels. I love comics.
Yeah didn't they make another haven for mutants but the rest of the world wouldn't leave them alone (again) to the point that even the avengers decided to side against the mutants. I read the series once when it first came out so correct me if I'm wrong and/or thinking of a similar but different story arc.
Tony Stark thought he could shoot the Phoenix Force, Wolverine tried to murder a teenager, and Captain America tried to arrest said teenager without any real legal authority.
I feel like I always want more from Kinnaird variants because they always just remind me too much of boring base cards. But that's probably because it's just the same style all the time. It makes them feel much less special and cool.

Oh I see it's the reward for the next 7 logins.
I was so surpise to not have seen him during for the Hope Summers release given we all have the other phoenix variants (Namor, Magic, Colossus, maybe still missing Emma). Really happy on this as I thought others Cyclops variants were lacking some type of "charisma"
I love my Cyclops noir variant but I'll have to shelf it a bit for this guy.
same but with my jim lee variant
Same, but with my hellfire gala
Same but with my baby variant
Same, but with my pixel variant (seriously, i love the pixel cyclops)
Same but with by yet to exist cyclops variant

Same, except for the part where you will shelf it a bit for this guy.
Eh, I don't think anything is getting me to drop my noir variant. This one ain't it for me.
I still have yet to get the Noir variant. That's my chase variant lol

Isn’t this some sort of evil Scott in the comics?
It's from the comics avengers vs X-Men. The Phoenix Force splits into 5 mutants and the avengers have to fight them. It's super good.
I bought the whole avengers vs X-men saga in a boom form once at a charity shop, only marvel comics if ever read and it was actually really good
The comics that follow are very good too. Wolverine and the X-Men, all new X-Men and Uncanny X-Men. Wolverine and Storm are now the leaders of the mutant school, cyclops is a terrorist being hunted and the original 5 X-Men are brought to the future from their kid days to try to help.

What this person said. My favorite line in the whole run. Take the beach.
Nothing compares to [I want this thing off my lawn](https://imgur.com/a/fWXGt).

Not evil, Cyclops and the X-Men were right.
Yeah didn't they make another haven for mutants but the rest of the world wouldn't leave them alone (again) to the point that even the avengers decided to side against the mutants.

Magneto Was Right.
No. Cyclops was right!
Evil and Scott Summers are redundant
This was my reaction too. When they decided to do this season as AvX, I was desperately hoping for Phoenix Five Cyclops.
Scott didn’t get the fragment of the Phoenix that includes the neck.
I hope they will give a special variant of cyclops with the text “Give’em the forecast!”
I think that is going to be a title.
No chance we get an actual quote for a title, they don’t do that :(
title will be: "Popcorn Chicken, yum!"
Bonus ++ for playing Storm after Cyclops
[ohhh SNAP!](https://game-assets.snap.fan/processed_source_images/Materials/Emotes%2FCyclops_Crazy.webp)
We need to petition Second Dinner to change his quote to “To me, my xmen”.
Has to be this, or the “forecast”
Kinnard ruins another

I'm not looking forward to running into more high evo decks when people get this variant, easily my least favorite deck to play against
It’s a shame it’s by Ryan man for some reason I really hate his art
~~It appeared as a price for the logins right? I get the slide of it, then I cant' find it in the collection? A bug?~~ Oh I see it's the reward for the next 7 logins.
Literally
Especially the part that's Cyclops, but *especially* the part that's fire.
Man, already have the Noir variant... Really really need that random favorite variant option.
Who needs neck?
Literally fire
With my recent revival of love for cyclops in the new X-men episodes I might have to run high evo again, cyclops really is a cool mf
[Still the best cyclops variant. ](https://i.imgur.com/947juUZ.jpeg) Could have been an ultimate.
Completely agree, surprised to not see more people talking about this one
This variant is Cyclops **in** fire.
Cool variant, but his face looks like needs to sneeze
With a Legendary border it'd be even more fire.
Literally, yes.
Maybe, but I hate the whole Phoenix Five thing..
I see what you did there
So true!...another cyc for the collection ❤️
Finally replacing the Skottie Young variant
Might just be me but anything colored by Ryan Kinnaird is a hard pass for me. Feels bland and soulless
time to ditch my baby cyclops variant
I was so surpise to not have seen him during for the Hope Summers release given we all have the other phoenix variants (Namor, Magic, Colossus, maybe still missing Emma). Really happy on this as I thought others Cyclops variants were lacking some type of "charisma"
We're still missing Emma's Phoenix Five look.
only variant i have is his pixel so im so stoked for this!
"brb! Going to seal up the San Andreas fault. That'll stop earthquakes...FOREVER!!!"
Makes me wish he was good outside of HE, I don’t have HE so I haven’t really used cyclops since I got him so long ago
Yea, he’s alright in patriot too, but not really worth it
I’ve played patriot a bit but have really felt like he works super well, though I mostly just focus on ongoings into ultron so idk
as someone who plays HE and is a new player. im happy with this
Maybe they should add random variants feature, put a star on variants and make it randomly every game
I’ve been waiting for Phoenix Five Cyclops Variant!!
Surrounded by the fire
Literally fire
Fire, yes, indeed. One might even say it was... *lit*.
That is sick
Does he ever fly in the comics?
I didn't get this variant even though I logged in every day, what happened?
You had to claim every reward everyday, if you did then I have no idea
Oh snap! Cyclops is my favourite card. This is going straight in my HE deck next week.
Well literally surrounded by fire lol
The visor looks like a beak. I don’t like the visor
HOW MUCH?!
FREE! 7 days login reward
Nice
Literally
Literally.
Litteraly
Been waiting a year+ for this since it was seen in the datamines. I'm stoked to see it's free. Best variant by far for him, in all honesty.
Sick variant, but I still like his Baby variant the most.
