I have this dislike for Cyclops because of the very, very early comics. I got into this weird phase a number of years ago where I decided I needed to read EVERY X-MEN COMIC EVER MADE (that ended kind of fast, because whoa), so I started from issue 1, and omg. The whining. It's an endless string of "whoa is me I have lasers for eyes I can never have a relationship! But I love Jean! Oh Jean, oh Jean, I pine for you, oh Jean, but we can never be together due to the aforementioned LASER EYES! *sob sob sob*"

So, yeah. I find myself unable to separate any future iterations of him from that.

That's pretty much every prominent character in every Marvel comic in the 60s. since you were reading X-Men only, you didn't notice. And why whoa? Lots o people read old comics and lots o people read X-Men rom either 60s #1 or second Genesis. (My keyboard is faulty, I apologize)

No worries!

I meant "whoa" in the sense that I realized that reading every single X-Men comic ever was a bit overambitious. 50 years of material is a damn lot (although at the time it was about 45 years, but still), and I kind of got overwhelmed after a while! So I eventually decided to pare it down to the major arcs.

That is a good point, though. I'm not too familiar with the other comics from that time period, but the little that I do know would indicate that you're correct. It was the trope of the time, it seems. Still annoying and unattractive, ha!
