I know I'm alone here (and pretty much everywhere) but Cyclops really doesn't bother me. He's not my favorite character, but I don't have any dislike for him either.
It's all about the coat.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The whole Maddy Pryor thing grates for me, Kalshane. And the retcon failed to mitigate that.

Maddy Pryor? Not familiar with who/what that is.

After Jean's death, Cyclops meets and marries and has a child with Madeline Pryor. Then Jean comes back, and Mr. Summers dumps her and the kid without a backward glance to get back into Jean's pants. Cad.

Ah. Okay, yeah, I can see that as being a big problem.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I know I'm alone here
No, but I didn't know about the Madeline Pryor thing either. They were still an item when I stopped reading.

I may have to seize the cat.
I don't understand the love of Jean Grey. I find her amazingly dull.
So I guess she and Scott are a good match, then.

She was Phoenix! That was cool.
But as long as you aren't dissing Storm or Wolverine or Colossus or Rogue or Gambit or Professor X or Angel or Forge I'm pretty much good.
