Resolving The Cyclops/Jean Grey/Wolverine Love Triangle Discussion

[spirit2011]

Honestly, if the 2 most powerful female mind readers in the world fell for him, I don't see how he can be doing anything wrong. The can read everything about a man and both decided that Scott was the best of the best.

Scott confirmed for best man in MU.

Nah, that is Luke Cage or black panther or Reed richards or black bolt

sadly she is a prize in both relationships

of course not. People have to stop saying this, because makes no sense

Every time in the main timeline I've ever seen Jean kids Logan like Genosha, The kisses during Morrison's run it was always when she thought he or both of them was dying or about to die and it always came off to me like pity kisses for a guy who never accepted he wasn't chosen.

All of them fine men; there's definitely no way to say with certainty who's best, and that goes for women as well.

If we're talking about Scott/Jean, she is not a prize. If we're talking about Logan/Jean, she's not a prize. However, if we're talking about the love triangle? Yes, she is definitely a prize in that scenario.

Lol is that what this whole Jott thing is all about? Scott's not even nerdy. He just does that "pretend nice-guy" thing.

Scott is totally nerdy. Being a socially-inept, self-doubting nerd thrust into a position of leadership is the very essense of the character.

Also I don't see how he does "pretend nice-guy". He's always been honest about being a bossy control-freak with poor understanding of social niceties.

Yep, he's always worn that on his sleeve.

Cyke isn't even the team nerd though. That's Hank.

Hank is a genius with some geeky pop-culture interests. That means he's a nerd the way Tony Stark is a nerd. Beast may have the stereotypical brilliance but Cyclops has the personality of a nerd.

cyke is the hot nerd and hank.... is just the nerd

hnak is far hotter than Cyke, specially on fur mode

Honest? when he said he was a jerk?

[Papa Moai]

To be fair, before he turned into a cat-person, Hank was totally hot. Especially during his Avenger years when he was portrayed as quite the lothario.

[phoenixzero23]

i know this is a little off-topic but i do think hank is hotter on fur and blue

[bell]

lmfao i am not a cat person lol

[Papa Moai]

He was hot when he kind of looked like a blue, slightly hairier Logan. The full-on cat thing is bit too much. And it doesn't help that somewhere along the way he lost his sense of humour.

[Striderblack01]

Cyclops isn't really a nerd, he's more of a square (dullard, boring person).

That said, if the last thing I want to read about is Jean getting together with Logan and getting trashy with it, then the second to last thing I want to read about is Jean getting together with Scott as some sort of 'redemption' arc for Scott. I can practically picture the sanctimonious lectures already.
Scott doesn't need redemption. What the X-men need is reconciliation.
And I think Jean might be able to facilitate that.

However, if Jean and Scott eventually use their experiences with the Phoenix to get closer to each other, then I might see that working.
Ultimately, the 'resolution' to this 'triangle' is friendship.
By which I mean nobody gets together with anybody. For a long, long, loooooong time.

That, and for creeper Logan to take his creeper hair-sniffing somewhere else.

[Papa Moai]

Ultimately, the 'resolution' to this 'triangle' is friendship.

I'd love that. Scott and Jean always felt like friends first and lovers second. It would be great to see them as amicable exes.

[Disciple of Redd]

Whoa, whoa, to some of you peeps.

Socially inept and fearful or not forthright in approach to women /= nerd.

Sure, some nerds are also the left side of that non-equation but not all of them.

Beast is an actual nerd, from his brainy way of speaking down to the bookish interests none of his friends care about.
