Cyclops, first appeared on The X-Men #1 on September 1963. With the civilian name of Scott Summers, he was the brainchild of Stan Lee and great Jack Kirby.
Along with a band of teenagers being discovered by their mentor, Professor Charles Xavier, Scott was the first to be gathered by the professor.
They were known as the subspecies of humankind known as Mutants, being naturally born with special abilities. Cyclops can emit powerful beams of energy from his eyes. He cannot control the beams without the aid of special eyewear which he must wear at all times.
Stan Lee said that Cyclops and Beast were his two favorite X-Men, elaborating that "I love tortured heroes—and he was tortured because he couldn't control his power." Originally dubbed "Slim Summers", by The X-Men #3 his name was changed to "Scott", with "Slim" becoming a nickname.
Cyclops's history has undergone various revisions, both minor and major. The central fixed element is the character's origin story. As a young boy, Scott Summers is orphaned after watching his parents die in a plane crash. Scott and his brother, Alex, are the only survivors. Their parents placed the two boys in the only available parachute and forced them to jump from the plane just prior to crashing. The boys become wards of the state and are separated. When Scott's powers manifest uncontrollably he runs away from the orphanage and wanders before being taken in as ward by Charles Xavier.
Cyclops romances were tormented as well, with mainly 2 characters of most of the X-Men story plots - Jean Grey and Madelyne Pryor.
n terms of publication time, Cyclops's longest and deepest romantic relationship would be with Jean Grey, whom he would eventually marry but not before she would appear to tragically die protecting the X-Men. Grieving from this loss, Scott leaves to the Summers family reunion where he meets and starts to pursue Madelyne Pryor. Scott would become obsessed with Madelyne's similarity to Jean.
Cyclops also later developed a short romance with Emma Frost.
