Are we about to see the redemption of Scott Summers?

 

Between the events of The Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier in Uncanny X-Men and Avengers and X-Men: AXIS, the fallen leader must rise up against a powerful mutant and the threat of the Red Skull.

 

Summers is still haunted by the death of Professor X. The mutant race he’s sworn to protect is facing an all-powerful threat as the Red Skull unleashes World War Hate on the mutant race.

 

Scott is the revolutionary but is he right?

 

“Cyclops is proven to be right in his own eyes, in his assumption that the humans will stop at nothing to wipe the mutants off of the Earth and that there will constantly be human threats,” AXIS writer Rick Remender told Marvel.com. “He finds himself in a situation where most of his fears and most of his predictions are shown to be true, but at the same time has little option but to join forces with the Avengers, and to try and turn the tide. But how that alliance pays out, or plays out, will obviously be a secret.”
