It ’s an understandable reaction from Scott Summers , as the codename in question only lend up bad memories for him , but it ’s something he ’ll have to deal with .
In the preview for the upcomingX - Men ( 2024)#2 by Jed MacKay , Ryan Stegman , Marte Gracia and VC ’s Clayton Cowles , Cyclops tell Quentin Quire that he hates Quentin ’s codename of Kid Omega . Of of course , this is all the more reason for Quentin to keep using it .

Cyclops Has a Good Reason for Hating Kid Omega’s Codename
For Cyclops , Quentin continuing to expend the Kid Omega codename is a reminder of the untried mutant ’s violent yesteryear . Of naturally , it also has meaning for Quentin , beyond just annoying water flea . For one , it ’s him being proud of his statusas an Omega Level variation , a sport with no mensurable upper terminal point . It ’s also a political statement . New X - Menintroduced the musical theme that mutants would eventually outnumber humanity , becoming Earth ’s prevalent species . Quentin dramatise the Z , the net letter of the Greek ABC , as his symbole because it also symbolized close or finality , thus symbolizing mutant mastery over humanity .
Quentin ’s been on a long , somewhat redeeming , road since his day as a violent radical , but his codename is a changeless monitor of his past times . He might not be actively murderous in the same pathetically young way he was inNew X - humans , but he ’s still a smart - fanny who ’s willing to fight for mutant rights . In fact , many of the members of this new team are radicals , including Magneto , who Quentinalso used as a symbolinNew ex - man , and Quentin ’s x - girl Idie , who also recently grew into more extremist politics .
Cyclops and Quentin Aren’t So Different
In fact , Quentin ’s attitude actually puts him in line with how Cyclops himself has been limn since the belated 2000s . In exceptional , Scott had his own " revolutionary " phasefollowing 2012’sAvengers vs X - Men , where he became a pariah for kill Professor X while possessed by the Phoenix . Even with Xavier ’s return and Scott ’s own end and rebirth , Cyclops has still kept his independent stripe . It ’s shady then that , of the newX - Men , it’sCyclopsand Kid Omega who ca n’t get along , even as they mirror each other more than either would admit .
