Comic Book Question of the Week RESULTS: Who's Your Favorite X-Men Character?

There's about a gazillion characters that have been X-Men over the years (that's a rough estimate), and the Comic Vine crowd has declared one as its favorite. Is it obviously Wolverine or did another character grab the victory?

Back in 1963, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced the world to the X-Men. The original roster was led by Professor X and consisted of just 5 characters: Cyclops, Jean Grey, Iceman, Beast, and Angel. Decades later and the team has expanded a great deal and undergone some drastic changes. Dozens upon dozens of writers and artists have left their mark on the franchise and it's currently in a completely different state than when it began, too. The team has included a wide array of characters, but we wanted to know which mutant the Comic Vine community likes the most. We gave you quite a few options (plus the choice of "other" -- you can never please everyone) and one character blasted apart the competition. That man, ladies and gentlemen, is Scott Summers aka Cyclops.

Basically how the poll went, too.
Basically how the poll went, too.

Okay, really can't say we saw that one coming. Truth be told, we expected Wolverine's sheer popularity to give him the edge, but it looks like the tactician knocked him out of the way with an optic blast or two. Scott may have felt a little like a boyscout at first, but the guy has a brilliant mind when it comes to tactics and has always been completely about protecting his people. He's recently made some big decisions that were pretty polarizing to fans, but the fact remains he was able to make a call when it come to incredibly difficult scenarios. Whether or not you stood by his side is a whole different story. Plus, his ability to demolish anything in his path with optic blasts is pretty cool, right?

"What am I doing? Isn't it obvious? Beating you and Logan in the CV poll! Mwhahaha!"

Here's the complete poll results. Quite a turnout this week... over 500 votes!

Viner Post of the Week for Cyclops is by zoomHYPERIONzoom

"'Cyclops was right.'

Scott is the voice of reason amongst a sea of melodramatic, emotionally driven characters. Wolverine is cool but, contrary to his power set, not the sharpest tool in the shed. Intelligence trumps all in my book and many would choose Beast for that reason but Henry is often too soft for my taste, who too often appeals to emotion rather than reason.

Cyclops satisfies my affinity for rational, righteous characters with enough power to make people pay attention.

Cyclops is a superb tactician both on the world scale and in hand to hand combat. Able to go to to toe with the best there is at what he does even without using his optic blasts.

...And optic blasts are awesome."

Viner Post of the Week for Nightcrawler is by micahparadise

"I'm actually surprise Cyclops is in top running in this vote! :) Although i think the recently writing of him since the utopia storylines and now as a mutant terrorist has made him a rather great character. BUT enough about my thoughts, here is my vote:

NIGHTCRAWLER!!!

The most original, fun loving, and likeable character on the Xmen. He's like the heart of the team"

No Caption Provided

Good news for the Cyclops fans out there. A series centered around Summers is being released in May and it's by Greg Rucka and Russell Dauterman. Did the classic X-Man earn your vote or did your love go elsewhere? No matter whom you voted for, go ahead and share your favorite picture of the character below!

I'm not surprised that Wolverine didn't win. Marvel has been doing a good job moving him away from the character people loved.

Im going to say this: Not only was Cyclops right, but Magneto has been right all along. If Jewish people had had the military might to rise up and kill the Nazi's, nobody would have faulted them for doing so. I dont know why Magneto gets so much crap. His people are oppressed, and constantly suffering murder and abuse, and diplomacy hasnt worked. It is his, and every mutants, human right to use force to defend their rights.

Yay! I'm happy Kitty got a good score.

I'm also glad Scott came first. To me, he is the real leader of the X-Men. I wish he would have gotten better storylines in the movie adaptation of him, instead of focusing on Wolverine all the time and turning him into the leader.

I love pretty much all of these characters, so there really isn't a wrong choice as far as I'm concerned. I am really shocked that Cyclops won, would have assumed Wolverine would have at least a 20% lead over everyone else. Cyclops deserves some recognition though for sure. He is the fearless leader after all. He was also my favorite character growing up, and still somewhere near the top.

Glad my pick of Iceman did pretty well overall, and that my second choice Magneto ended up in the top 5.

This surprises me. I expected Cyclops to do well because of his recent characterization. His character arc has been one of the most interesting in super hero comics for a while now. I have loved seeing his slow transition to what he is now. The thing that surprised me is that he won. Reading the comments on the voting page makes me think a lot of people voted for other characters because they thought it was a forgone conclusion that Wolverine would win. That might have brought his numbers down a bit. My three favorite X-Men are Kitty, Emma, and Gambit so it saddens me to see Emma receive so few votes.

I don't want to turn this into a political hate-fest. But you are 100% right.

If Israel did not have such a well-trained, resourceful, skilled and technologically advanced military, and taken the hardline approach to military and political matters to ensure NATIONAL SURVIVAL, they would have been wiped out by the Arab Nations decades ago. That is what people fail to understand these days.

Nice! My 3 favorite X-Men are Cyclops, Kitty Pryde, and Illyana. Following them probably Rogue and Colossus (80's Colossus at least).

I always want to like Nightcrawler but no Nightcrawler story has really grabbed me so far. Well, unless you count X-Men Evolution. Man I loved that cartoon! Of course I write that, he was pretty great in Excalibur.

Wolverine was a great character in the 80's and early 90's. Was also entertaining in Whedon's run on Astonishing X-Men. They just kind of made him into god though. He can't die and he's the best in every single profession ever because he's immortal. Also he's in love with every chick he slept with but for some reason the fans always seem to clamor for Jean. What about Tyger Tiger or Mariko?

bunch of babies. 'Cyclops was right' up his own butt.

Read to comments in the voting page. most of the people that voted for Scott only did it to stop Wolvie from winning. Fair play to Nightcrawler though, in my mind it was Kurt and Logan in a joint win.

Boo.. I can't believe Cyclops won. He's the worst hypocrite in comics right now. He doesn't care for homo sapiens anymore which was proved when he gambled with 7 billion lives for the chance of new mutants. Wolvie is fighting for both humans and mutants. X-men were always about that. Cyclops is not really the ideal X-man anymore. Wolvie might not be either but he's definitely closer to it.

I love the logic. Let's break down AvX real quick.

X-men: We want Hope to get the phoenix.

Avengers: We don't want her to have it.

Wolverine: Let's kill Hope.

Ironman screws up and the X-men get the Phoenix instead of Hope.

X-men: We have the Phoenix

Avengers: We want Hope to have the Phoenix

Wait... what? If the Avengers had stayed out of stuff that had nothing to do with them then AvX would never had happened. It was just bad writing all around. Also when you talk about hypocrites in comics you have to go back to Captain America in Civil War.

Shield: We want all the super powered people to register with Shield.

Captain America: How dare you ask Super Heroes to do that?!

X-men: Wow... Now its an issue? They've been doing this crap to us for years and you've been working for them.

Captain America: Shut up Muties!

Good Times....

Wow the hypocritical, anarchical, henious excuse for a 'superhero' and fallen angel that is Cyclops gets the vote on here? Really? That's made me lose a bit of faith in the Vine for picking one of the worst comic book characters as "the voice of right and reason." Did anyone actually read AvX? Or see what Marvel have made Cyclops into? Where even top ranking Marvel editors actively said Cyclops was in the wrong during AvX? And yet people still think he's a messiah of mutant kind? What idiotic decision making that has appalling reason and fallacious logic behind it. I could go on and on about how wrong Cyclops was but people have already done that so there's no need. Cyclops was WRONG when you actually look at what he did.

Thanks for making THAT clear! I didn't believe Cyke would win, but I voted for him. Hope he (and I mean old Cyclops, as in "the one and only Cyclops") gets more time on panel as soon as the young X-Men have gotten a bit more used to this timeline and don't take all the spotlight anymore.

You know some of us voted him for what he was before...don't generalize,man.
And Cyke may not be at his best now but a favorite is a favorite, I still love him for the character he was back in New and Astonishing X-men.
That doesn't mean much, intention and final product can differ. Marvel didn't manage to show that Cyclops was wrong clearly, so people sided with him and the fact that he was right (even by coincidence) about the phoenix, only made him look better. Plus no one takes AvX seriously because it is an abomination.

used to cyclops but then started sleeping with Emma Frost and house of M happened and he became a jerk. both Nightcrawler and Wolverine are worthy of winning. the only people who don't like wolverine are the ones who've never read a good wolverine story (and there is a but ton of good wolverines stories too choose from)

Wow! Comment of the week! I signed up to comic vine just so I could participate in this poll so that's really cool. :)

I personally really enjoyed AvX. It made me angry and indignant and but not because it was bad. I felt that way because the writing made me feel so strongly invested in the story that it invoked that level of response and emotive responses to any kind of writing is a job well done even if it is a negative emotion.

The way I saw it:

No Caption Provided

1. Captain America and the Avengers invaded sovereign soil with the intention to kidnap one of its citizens ie. Hope.

2. Cyclops didn't ask for the Phoenix. It was Iron Man's actions, that justified as they were, inadvertently split the Phoenix.

3. What did the X-men led by Cyclops do with the Phoenix power? They brought world peace and transformed the world into a technological paradise.

4. The president of the US didn't like the idea of this new super power and sicked the all too willing Captain America on the X-men. Let's make this clear. The Avengers attacked first every time.

5. Beaten into a corner by the Avenger aggressors, Scott buckled under the influence of the Phoenix and did two terrible things: 1. Stole the remaining Phoenix force from Emma and accidentally killed Professor Xavier. Totally uncool but he was under the influence of a cosmic sentience that has been proven to overwhelm even the most unquestionable of characters.

6. After the Phoenix left Cyclops he took responsibility for all of his actions and even for those of his X-men who behaved less than admirably under the influence of the Phoenix. What a guy.

I was surprise that Cyclops would get the most vote by far. I was not surprised that Wolverine did not come out on top simply because he is everywhere now and fatigue is starting to set in. It's intriguing that Jean Grey has been dead for nearly a decade now but she still beat out Emma in popularity. Also, it seems Gambit was pretty popular. I wonder why his book didn't do better. I thought it was a pretty fun read.

That's your POV of the situation, here's mine

The PF that ate a sun and destroyed a planet before is coming again

It might destroy us all this time but who cares, if no more mutants are gonna appear, the world is better off dead anyway

I'm gonna act the victim even though I was the one who shot first

We have the phoenix but it's all good, it's not like this thing ever gets out of control anyway

Oops, I killed Xavier but I was 'under the influence' so I'm innocent but screw you Wanda, you may have also been 'under the influence' but you took mutant powers away and that is unforgivable

Why fight for a world that fears and hates us anymore when I should just fight for us. Oh and let's take a sh/t on that Xavier's dream by naming my new school after him

@squalleon: I deal in facts, not generalisations. You should know this by now. And no one has proven to me that Cyclops was right in the slightest. There has never been any justification or solid argument that I haven't been able to tear apart for Cyclops being anywhere near right in AvX let alone his recent idiotic and anarchist activities. AvX may be an abomination but Cyclops was a broken character beforehand and people actually supporting current Cyclops baffles me to this day given what a horrible excuse for a superhero he is. I hate current Cyclops because he's a terrible reflection of the early Cyclops.

There are many who commented on Cyclops recent degression as a character but still voted the character because they loved him from their childhood (me included), so not all votes went from guys supporting his recent actions, thats why I told you don't generalize. I won't "excuse" Cyclops' recent action because I don't agree with them but I can't take any X-men (or Marvel to be honest) story from the last 2 years seriously.

Cyclops actually has fans? wtf

he is literally one of the most unlikeable, boring, and bland characters in all of comic books. and no I am not a wolverine fan, he is even worse than cyclops in many different ways

@squalleon: I deal in facts, not generalisations. You should know this by now. And no one has proven to me that Cyclops was right in the slightest. There has never been any justification or solid argument that I haven't been able to tear apart for Cyclops being anywhere near right in AvX let alone his recent idiotic and anarchist activities. AvX may be an abomination but Cyclops was a broken character beforehand and people actually supporting current Cyclops baffles me to this day given what a horrible excuse for a superhero he is. I hate current Cyclops because he's a terrible reflection of the early Cyclops.

How was he NOT right? Cyclops wanted Hope to possess the Phoenix so she could jump start mutant births after an AVENGER wiped out almost their entire species. The Avengers got in the way and then ended up doing exactly the thing that Cyclops wanted from the start: giving the Phoenix to Hope. Also, do you even read Uncanny? SHIELD has someone creating Sentinels on their dime and only that team is doing anything about it.

I voted Psylocke, Iceman would be my second choice.
