Nightwing: I have a lot of weird siblings. How about you?
Cyclops: Don't ask.

Like Scott Summers, I ALSO call my ex wife the goblin queen.

The Summers family is one of my favorite of the mutant families. Incredible breakdown Amanda & Top 10 crew.

[Junorimo]

My favorite family by far. So complicated it gives me very telenovela vibes lol. I love it

[unlikelyspore]

Good luck with that, the house habsburg is less complicated.

As far I know, Cable is the son of Scott Summers and Madelyn Prior AKA Goblin Queen. Scott Summer's Brother is Alex Summers AKA Havok, Christopher Summers AKA Corsair is Scott's Father who formed the galactic group known as the Star-jammers. His wife, Kate Summers was killed by Lilandra's Brother d'ken. Mr. Sinister was Scott Summer's Adopted Father (which I'm surprised to hear this), Scott's third Brother is Gabriel Summers AKA Vulcan. Nate Summers is alternate version of Cable. Alex Summers and Janet Van dye have a daughter named Kate. Then there's Cable's son Genesis and his daughter Hope.

[chealoutman]

Imagine having the worst power out of your family and you can’t open your eyes

[richchappell]

As someone who is getting back into collecting comics after 30 years off, this is actually quite helpful.

[kingdomcomesuperman]

Favourite family of Marvel, especially Cyclops but love how overcomplicated its become.

[IAmImprintJones]

That is the most complex family tree in comics PERIOD!!! Awesome job Amanda

[caldervitriolic]

One of the most complicated families but some of my favorites

[GlidingZephyr]

Honestly, I would not shed a tear if Mr. Sinister were somehow paralyzed, sat facing a nuclear warhead twenty feet away from him and time were somehow slowed enough so he could watch and feel himself be obliterated at 1 to 5% real life speed.

In all seriousness, that was an excellent breakdown, Amanda. It pretty much answers anything that anyone would want to know about the Summers family.

[tondelungu]

Great explanation... please have a part 2. I want to see Ruby Summers make it back to the mainstream timeline

[louisalectube]

I still think Rachel Summers should be Phoenix (or Jean Grey). Or Rachel should have some important role and power among Xmen. And her awesome 80's spiked outfit needs to make a comeback.

[davidfreeman]

What about the Mutant X Timeline? Alex possesed his variant's body, and raised that universe's Alex+Maddie son, Scottie.

I'm a pretty big comic nerd and I am very impressed by your level of research and knowledge.
