Ultimate Cyclops/Havok Ages

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Who's older in the Ultimate X-Men line, Scott or Alex? Cause in his first appearance, Alex is called Scott's older brother. But in the Magnetic North story arc, Bobby says that Alex is Scott's kid brother, and two books later they act like Scott is younger again. So very confusing.

[DarkCORN!]

Havok is younger.

EDIT: Okay, I'm an idiot, 'cause I posted in the wrong thread.

Yeah, Scott has always been the older brother.

What it comes down to is if you're going to read Ultimate Marvel books, you don't really have any kind of business expecting anything to make sense.

Well, but, see, listen here, the wikipedia article says Havok is older. And two of three referrences say Havok is older. So, I mean...what?

[Fifthfiend]

Havok is whatever age whatever given Ultimates writer happens to decide he is on any given day. This is how they do things.

I mean for Christ's sake, Ultimate General Ross was fucking dead, and then Warren Ellis decided he didn't wan't General Ross to be dead, so BAM! There was General Ross, going around being not dead no' more. I mean by comparison, linear age is a pretty minor detail.

Personally, I'd just blame Hypertime and be done with it.

I don't...I don't like hypertime...
