It's a fanart. A poster on comicvine, slimlim, did it.

Love it when Magneto gets drawn like that, looks menacing as all hell.

Fan art I presume? Looks good.

Trim the fat a bit (Hope and Storm) and this is probably my favorite team of all time (All New, All Different is up there too).

[yanapryde]

thanks graffix. Worked real hard on it.

[DarthCyclopsRLZ]

Looks great.

Oddly fighting that the two traitors would be on Scott's side and the two crazies on Emma's.

This is an amazing peice of work yanapryde. But, LL why did you draw Namor as a teenager?

Namor has Channing Tatum boyish charm a top a chiseled perfect body.

Interesting Interview with Nick Lowe.

A fellow Cyclops Fan

http://www.newsarama.com/comics/all-...post-game.html



Nrama: Cyclops in an interesting place in the current comics — a lot of fans were turned off by the way he was portrayed during Avengers vs. X-Men, and now it seems that that's kind of turned around, almost completely. There's a lot of vocal "Cyclops was right" supporters out there — did you expect that reaction?

Lowe: Axel [Alonso] has been a huge Cyclops proponent; when he was group editor, and now editor-in-chief. I was always a Cyclops fan. I'm an X-Men nerd from 1991, '92. And Cyclops was my favorite character for almost all of that time. One of the things you learn in editorial, it's very easy to revere the characters almost too much, and not let them grow and change and be new things. And that's one of the things that I'm so proud of in the last four or five years with Cyclops, and his story, that we've gotten to see him grow and change, and have really interesting and character-pushing moments through the last few years.

Even up here, I'm not going to lie, there were many times where we'd get in arguments about Avengers vs. X-Men stuff. I've been one of the biggest defenders of the X-Men the entire time, because so many people in talking about AvX, they will talk about how Cyclops is being very villainous, and all that kind of stuff. And when he is completely consumed, and has the full Phoenix force, there is control loss there. You can see it. But earlier on, when he has the Phoenix, but just not the full one? I fully blame the Avengers for that, and I'm a big "Cyclops was right" believer, because in issue #6 of AvX, the X-Men were doing really good things. I stand by — kind of like when Jean first had the Phoenix, and it was Mastermind that drove her to be the Dark Phoenix — that Cyclops was on a good road, even better maybe than his cohorts on the Phoenix Five, and it was a lot of the goading and distrust of the Avengers that really sent us down that road.

[graffiX]

Yep, that was (obviously) my favorite part of the interview.

Love that cover too. Teen!Cyclops is going to get owned by the Revolutionary. Maybe that will be the issue we see his power upgrade(s)?

[DarthCyclopsRLZ]

Of course we already knew Cyclops didn't accept the world as it is and tried to make it a better place.

That's what true heroes do.
