Line 5:
* He manages to turn a [[Ship Tease]] into a crowning moment in his first appearance. He catches Rogue off-guard and leaves her practically lovestruck while handing her a charged playing card. Rogue takes several seconds to come back to her senses and realize she's holding a bomb.
* Cyclops has a moment when the team is fighting Juggernaut. At one point, when everything they can throw at Juggie is being shrugged off, power beams included, Cyke takes off his visor and opens his eyes fully, sending Juggernaut flying back and utterly destroying everything in sight (literally).

'''Cyclops''': Yeah? You want it raw, tough guy? Then take it RAW! ''(removes his visor and uses his powers at full force)'' }}
** Of course, Juggernaut, being, well, [[The Juggernaut]], eventually gets to his feet and powers his way through the blast, one step at a time, which was also pretty [[Oh Crap|awesome]]. Then Rogue stole his powers and threw him into the river, encased in ice by Bobby on the way down.
Line 14:
* And yet another for Cyke: at one point in "Target X", he and Jean take over teaching the New Mutants' class, and fail pretty badly throughout most of the episode. Then, in the last couple minutes, he decides to show them just how awesome he can be and has Jean lift all of the New Mutants into the air, before he fires an optic blast so that it bounces off the walls several times whilst avoiding every student in the air before ''coming down to slice an apple perfectly in half.'' No matter how you feel about Evo!Cyclops, you can't deny it was ''awesome''.
* Rogue gets a few (though the series largely seems to have been written to this end):
** In the episode "Mutant Crush", Rogue comes to rescue Jean from Blob, who had [[Stalker

'''Rogue''': Nah, you're just garbage that wanted a date, and I'm telling you, ''I'm taking you out!'' }}
** In [[Exactly What It Says
{{quote|
** In the same episode, Rogue pulls a [[Heel Face Turn]] and uses Cyclops's [[Laser Eyes|optic blasts]] to knock Mystique (who was about to attack the unconscious Scott) off the bridge made of snow they are crouched on.
** Just to prove the point about this series being written to give Rogue crowning moments, she gets another in "Power Surge", draining off enough of Jean's out-of-control power so Jean can regain her senses.
Line 28:
* Even [[The Scrappy|Spyke]] gets one, via the episode "Uprising". In which he drives off a bunch of mutant haters with [[Incendiary Exponent|flaming quills]].
** One particular scene stands out for not only how mature Spike is acting, but how in a lot of ways he is doing the right thing. He reacts to a storekeeper refusing to serve him by knocking his purchases to the ground, before calmly walking out. Before Spike can leave however the mutant haters target a woman and her son. He reacts by standing between the two, knocking down a wall and allowing the boy and his mother to escape, before picking up what he wanted to buy and dropping a handful of cash on the counter.
* [[Well
* Colossus gets one when he starts to get fed up with Magneto. Magneto uses his powers to pin him to a wall, threatening to "crush him like a can", so he turns into a human to escape his control and proceeds to punch Magneto, screaming at him to fight like a man. Unfortunately, Gambit stops him from actually making good on this. Though to be fair, he wasn't as urgent about it as he could have been.
* "Operation: Rebirth". Captain America vs. a German fighter plane. The plane loses. Hell, pretty much everything Cap does in the episode is awesome, even more so because the [[Super Soldier]] serum in this continuity is causing cellular degradation and he is already suffering pretty badly.
Line 35:
* "Day of Recovery", when Wolverine is strapped to a table and interrogated by the military, while the other mutants are in cells with plastic walls. Wolverine uses hand signals to tell Spyke to launch a spike through one of the wall's air holes, striking one of the arm restraints and allowing him to cut himself free and take on the military.
** What he does and says later after all the captive mutants are free is made all the more awesome:
