XMen Cyclops New Suit is His Most Practical in Years

Cyclops’ new suit for X-Men’s upcoming big event is his most practical in years. The X-Men will soon be attending the Hellfire Gala and many new fashion forward outfits have been revealed. One aspect of Cyclops’ outfit is of particular notice, since it is an element that should definitely stick around for longer than this event lasts.

Cyclops was first introduced in The X-Men #1 in 1963. As one of the oldest – and founding – members of the team, Cyclops is a regular in the comics. This means he has also had a uniform with the X-Men for a very long time. He has also undergone numerous uniform changes. Cyclops main power is the ability to shoot optic blasts, which makes his visor a staple of every costume he has.

Marvel has released a new trailer revealing more of the X-Men’s outfits for the Hellfire Gala – including a better look at Cyclops’. Compared to some of the other mutants’ outfits, Cyclops’ new suit looked positively bland. However, one particular aspect of it is a major improvement on past fashions the X-Men’s leader has worn in the way that matters most: practicality. Cyclops’ new visor puts all his past ones to shame.

Cyclops is able to control his optic blasts and filter them using his signature visor. His visor has changed a few times over the years, but more often than not it is a single thin band that ends just under his temple. This standard visor doesn’t change much from series to series, even being the base style of his Phoenix Five iteration. One of the biggest changes in visor was in Marvel NOW, when it was turned into an X shape instead of simply being a band across his eyes. That was also one of the strangest and seemingly impractical versions. Though most of the X-Men’s visors are rather sleek and streamlined, the new visor has done something different.

The Hellfire Gala visor is taking the best parts of Cyclops’ visors over the years and improving on them. While the overall visor is still very streamlined, it is wider. It covers more of his face, hiding even his nose, which is an aspect that the Phoenix Five variant did. His standard one doesn’t tend to do this. However, it does give him more width to shoot and concentrate energy from. Additionally, this new visor provides a more extensive range on the sides as well. Though it ends at around the same area as Cyclops’ previous visors, the lens is much broader.

This visor allows Cyclops a broader visual range not just looking forward, but also with his peripherals. That is a major design improvement, that widens his scope. The gold shimmer and extra detailing is also a really nice touch that dresses up the overall look. Cyclops’ look and his visor are an iconic – and crucial – part of his identity and this new formal visor finally gives the X-Men leader the range – and visual spectrum – he badly needed.
