What happened to Professor X?

[drevilz4l]

Hey all. I just started reading X-Men: Schism as a jumping on point. I haven't been up on the universe in a while, except for some wikipedia research. I was wondering where exactly is Professor X. From every source i have found he is still alive (As of Second Coming), but he is no where to be found in Schism. Where has he gone?

He's around on Utopia. Last seen (if I recall correctly) in X-Men: Legacy during some pretty cool stuff with Legion.

He just isn't that much of a badass anymore. He was a leader, and that was his only role, for quite a long time. Now he doesn't have that role. He's pretty much just a mutant like everyone else.

Well that clears it up. Thanks!

The question now is, what role will he take in AVX?

I think that he may end up being the voice of reason between the two sides. Or the one who tips the scales. 

On a side note I still think Scott is only acting out of charcter due to the tiny piece of The Void still locked away in his mind.

I doubt we see him at all during the event. Just too much background to fill-in if he does show up, and the event is already going to bogged down by any story they actually throw in it instead of the constant and repeated fights that are the crux of the event.

No, Cyc is acting in character; its just that his character has changed so much because of the events that have taken place to the mutants. There is no Void/Sentry around anymore anywhere in the Marvel U. And that's the way it should be.

Not sure how he will pop up. I thought basically Scott killed him.

If what Marvel has been quoted as saying is any indication, Prof. X WILL NOT be back in the comics.

And, yes, there's no "basically" about it, Dark Phoenix Cyclops killed his bald ass.

At least not for a few years.  I've become distrustful any time they say someone will not return from the dead with the history they have with keeping that promise.

Extended history? Yes, I agree.

Recently, however, they have killed off characters, Nightcrawler for example, and have promised to keep them dead for an extended period of time (its funny even reading that back), and I hope it stays that way.

Although, they did bring in AoA Nightcrawler...but that's a bit different. AoA Nightcrawler is a much bigger badass, IMO, than the 616 version.

We'll just have to wait and see.
