major christopher summers?

[Deadpool91]

....................WHO??

[clixhunter]

Corsair of the Starjammers. An Air Force Major turned space buccanner. Cyclops and Havoks dad.

[Deadpool91]

oh wow really, see i did not know that. is that the name he goes by if i looked him up on whoclix? or because it's an LE, they used his real name?

[DreadDormammu]

You would look him up under "Corsair". The LE uses his real name.

[clixhunter]

boneyard is now including both the le's by name and the official name. you should (once hes added) be able to look him up either way....but corsair would have most the info.


his fellow starjammers are: Raza; an oriental vulcan looking guy who is very good with a sword. Hepzibah; a feline/woman greyish fur...leaper/climber type good with guns. Ch'od; a very big very strong lizard like guy with scale natural armor.
and a dragonfly like med bot.

[Psylockeslover]

He generally goes by Corsair. It's been a while since I read them, but I think it was some time before he finally revealed his true name to Scott.....

[Billy Jack]

So am I right in assuming that the Star Jammers are going to beincluded in CM? We all know what happense when we assume. ;)

[Deadpool91]

awesome, seems like a very playable figure for 39 points, i can't wait to get the r/e/v of him

[Deadpool91]

i'm reading in my marvel encyclopedia volume 2 taht cyclops and havoks father died in an airplane accident and that cyclops and havok were adopted as orphens. how is this possible, unless major summers died but came back, i'm confused

[Deadpool91]

actually there is a section on corsair as well and it doesn't mention him dying at all, just their mother, corsair's wife

[Darth Sabre]

He never died, he was abducted, and thought to be dead in the crash that killed Scott and Alex's mother. IIRC, that is.

[Deadpool91]

i don't know, i mean in cyclops section is says his parents died, in corsairs section, no mention of his death. just cyclops mother was almost raped and later killed in front of major summers

[Psylockeslover]

As I recall, after Scott and Alex were thrown out of the airplane, a spaceship came along and abducted the elder Summers (both of them).

They were held is a sort of prison, along with one or two if the Starjammers. They were rescued along with the others and became part of the Starjammers. I'm not sure at what point Mother Summers was killed, either in the escape, or during a later adventure.

The details are fuzzy, but that is the best I can recall right now......

[lukebuchanan]

The same guy who tried to take over the Shi'ar Empire killed the mom, Kate, by stabbing her through the chest. Corsair was locked away and eventually gave up on life, choosing to rescue Hepzibah from the prison, meeting Ch'od and Raza. Their origin can be found in Classic X-men 15, the back-up story. THe book reprints the "Nightmare Crystal" storyline.

THe first book I ever read, handed down from my brother. Calculus I don't remember, but this story I do.

I miss Classic X-Men,

Luke B.

[NathanielEssex]

Mama Summers was also rumored to have given birth to the rape baby, which would grow into Adam X: The Xtreme or has this been disproved. I remember Mr. Sinister hinting at a third Summers brother

[Deadpool91]

it said that the person who held them captured "tried" to rape her. not "did"

[NathanielEssex]

Ah, well there we go then

[Deadpool91]

corsair is definetly a cool looking figure. i didn't know who he was at first but this only makes critical mass even more appealing. great choice for a clix

[saxman0829]

What do you think the odds of havoc appearing to round out some more of the summers family are?

[TheFreak]

well, "tried" or "did" (they didn't) Mr Essex is right. Mr Sinister has hinted in the past that he was keeping an eye on you (talking to Cyclops) and his brothers. Adam X was hinted to being the third, as was Gambit at one time.
