X-Men: Evolution/Awesome: Difference between revisions

* 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.

* 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 with a Crush|kidnapped her]] earlier in the episode, even though she wasn't even ''on the X-Men's side yet''. Oh, and she steals both Blob's and Scott's powers to do it.

'''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 on the Tin|"Turn of the Rogue"]], Rogue and Scott are on a field trip with the geology class, and are waiting out the blizzard in a series of caves. Mystique (who Scott believes is just the school principal) has infiltrated as one of the students and reveals who she really is to Scott, just before knocking him off the cliff they're all standing on. Rogue is understandably ticked, and in a moment of fury, pulls her glove off and grabs Mystique's arm to [[Blessed with Suck|absorb her memories]], holding on just long enough to knock her out in the process.

** 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.

* "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:
