Probably my favorite of his costumes over the years. Really cool looking Cyclops, congrats.
The face and the hands are definitely where artists can show out in terms of expression, and Grummett definitely did that here. Being waist up, it's cool that you got a more close up shot, though not as close as a head shot, which is good. As far as the look/costume, main thing for me is having that classic hooded look with visor - love it. And yes, I'm a Cyke fan! Congrats!
Nice cover !
Cyclops was my favorite also! Congrats!
Needs a thought bubble: "I'm so going to blast you .... no, no, no, don't it .... yes I'm so going to blast you!" :-)
Great Grummett cover, and it made your TOP 12!!!
Yup, nothing like "comic hands" (which is totally different from jazz hands, LOL). Love the exaggerated clutch. It's funny, the other day (I must have been really bored), I was just sitting around looking at my hand, and then I started tying to do some of these exaggerated hand poses from comics. I couldn't stop laughing, because it was just so ridiculous trying to hold your hand in some of these positions. Looks great in comics though. LOL
Nice, man! Everyone loves to hate on Cyclops, but he just wakes up every day to lead the team and fool around with the hottest X-Women! Respect!
Hahahaha I came here for this comment.
Hard to go wrong with Austin inks. Cyclops Grummett grail!
Lucite... hardening... must... end life... Classic... Lorne... Green... death... pose... from... Battlestar... Galactica.
Best... death... ever.
Another incredible piece of art. Hard to believe this is #526 in the Grummett art you have posted thus far!!!
What are your thoughts on the amalgamation of the 'skull cap' look with the Jim Lee Era body costume?
Great cover, Ruben. Did Austin ink much of Grummett's work?

Visors that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Lord Havok Summers that's DC again
These are a few of my favorite things
I typically don't have the patience needed to sit through musicals, but there are exceptions to every rule, right? Along with The Wizard of Oz and Grease, The Sound of Music is one of only 3 musicals I can say I've always loved and have seen dozens of times. Excellent choice of song and an equally excellent cover version, my brother in music! Thanks, dude. 😀
Absolutely love it!
more Grummett goodness. great cover of the x-man people love to hate. this must be in-between dating jean grey clones. He looks like he is pinching his right nipple. I never knew Scott liked some rough trade.
Cyclops looks so good here! Congrats!!!
Now that's a Cyclops! Congrats on it being a Grummett as well. The ruby quartz visored mutant comic art stars have aligned :)
Fantastic cover Ruben! Just beautiful!
Poor Cyclops. It's not his fault that writers like to turn him into a jerk from time-to-time (I particularly disliked him during "Avengers vs. X-Men" and the years immediately preceding it). Cool cover here with the great expressiveness of the hands.
Indeed the work on his face and hands is fantastic.
Having Austin inking him also brings out the Byrne influence/similarity even if Terry provided looser inks here than during his early days. And I do see some modern Golden similarity in the abs and even in the other bold black areas (it would be interesting to check if Austin inked Golden on a jo during that time period).
I'm an unabashed Cyke fan so loving this splash! Bonus for the Austin inks :)
When I first saw this, I thought "Wow, Cyclops must have a really itchy right pec." Then it seemed that the hand coming out of the left side of the image might not even BE Cyclops' hand. That someone might be reaching for him from off camera, causing his very expressive emotional response. Then I decided to stop trying to be funny and just say "Great cover, Ruben! Cyclops looks fantastic!"
Killer cover, Ruben! Optic blasts, here they come!
Well, it is a big visor...Cyke showing off those Meaty Man Mitts! I always was a Cyke fan, too...but I have to admit I always rooted for Logan. Team Wolvie 4eva! ;) Grummett really does convey emotion with the whole body. Great point. And that inking by Austin is excellent, as he does. Another inch closer to cornering the Grummett market. Congrats!
Cyke is my favorite X-Man and this one exudes the classic 90's vibes. Great stuff all around, congrats!
Wow what a huge and pretty visor!
Fun aside, this is a very cool looking cover, with a nice size visor.
Great intense cover of Cyclops, matches nicely to his level of leadership and all weight he has to continually carry for his team. Congrats!
Fantastic cover! Really different pose for Cyclops. Instead of showing him shooting off his eyebeams, Grummett depicts him tensing up as he prepares to blast the heck out of whoever has just pissed him off. Love how Terrry Austin's inks really bring the drawing to life. Congrats!
Retro beauty!
