X-Men (2025) 05: The Fake Cyclops

Two timelines, one Cyclops—and a future no one wants to experience!

The major X-Men event Age of Revelation has left its mark. But just because the decisive battles have been fought doesn’t mean all the heroes have returned to where they belong.

X-Men 5 focuses on the aftermath of the massive mutant crossover. The past, present, and a bleak future are once again intertwined—and Scott Summers, aka Cyclops, of all people, finds himself at the center of a dangerous time-travel mystery.

What really happened when Scott Summers traveled from the future to the present? What decisions did he make there? And what consequences do his actions have for the X-Men?

While these questions remain unanswered, one member of the X-Men remains trapped in the dystopian world of *Age of Revelation*—a reality where hope is a rare commodity and even seasoned mutants are pushed to their limits.

Cyclops, too, must hold his own in this hostile future. With no prospect of an easy victory, he fights against a world that gives him little chance. At the same time, the behavior of his counterpart in the present raises new questions.

Because when two versions of the same hero take different paths, the crucial question eventually arises: How much of Scott Summers remains when everything around him changes?

Here’s what awaits you:

• The epilogue to *Age of Revelation*: The immediate aftermath of the major X-Men event and unanswered questions surrounding the altered timelines.
• Cyclops Between Two Worlds: Scott Summers and his future counterpart are at the center of a dangerous mystery.
• A dystopian future: One X-Man remains trapped in the world of Age of Revelation.
• Secrets from the Present: What did the Cyclops of the future actually do during his journey into the past?
• Mutants at Their Limit: A battle against seemingly hopeless odds, where perseverance matters more than brute strength.
• Important connections to the X-Men universe: A chapter for everyone who wants to know what impact the event has had on the mutants.

The future is far from over!

X-Men 5 continues the events of Age of Revelation and shows that time travel rarely comes without consequences—especially when different versions of the same hero suddenly leave their mark on different realities.

A thrilling epilogue for X-Men fans who, after the major event, want to know what became of Cyclops and his comrades.

After all, the X-Men’s most dangerous enemies don’t always come from outer space or a secret lab. Sometimes they’re already waiting in their own future.
