Havok (Alexander "Alex" Summers) is a fictional character, a mutant superhero in the Marvel Comics Universe and member of the X-Men. He first appears in Uncanny X-Men No.54 (March 1969), and was created by Arnold Drake, Don Heck and Neal Adams. Havok generates powerful “plasma blasts”, an ability he has had difficulty controlling. He is the son of Corsair, the younger brother of the X-Men's Cyclops, and the older brother of Vulcan. He often resents Cyclops' authoritative attitude and reputation as a model X-Man.
In contrast, Havok and his longtime love interest Polaris have had a love/hate relationship with the team, often finding themselves roped into it. Both were also members of the 1990s-era Pentagon-sponsored mutant team X-Factor. After X-Factor disbanded, Havok starred in Mutant X, a series in which he explored a strange alternate reality. He has since returned to the X-Men, later taking over his father's role as leader of theStarjammers to bring Vulcan's reign over the Shi'ar to an end.
Lucas Till played Havok, as a member of the X-Men, in 2011's superhero film X-Men: First Class. Till will return as Havok in the upcoming 2014 film, X-Men: Days of Future Past.
- Actor Lucas Till played Havok in X-Men: First Class.[44] According to executive producer Bryan Singer, Havok was not portrayed as Cyclops' brother in the film, but "somehow [was] related to him in a way that works for the film."[45] Initially having trouble controlling the energy bursts he releases as part of his powers, Alex eventually manages to focus his abilities thanks to equipment developed by Professor X and Hank McCoy.
- Lucas Till will reprise his role in X-Men: Days of Future Past.[46]
