Cyclops is getting his own series!!!

This May, Marvel launches a new ongoing series staring Cyclops, written  by Greg Rucka and art by Russell Dauterman. But there is a catch, it's the time displaced teenage version. The premise is really interesting, Cyclops and his dad (a space pirate) share some time together while traveling the universe and fighting aliens.

Cyclops is one of my all-time favorite comic books characters and is really great to have a series with him as the star but this feels like a maxi series more than an ongoing. Sooner or later the original X-Men will have to return back to their time, when this happens, will the series continue or be canceled?

I would have preferred a series following the adventures of the adult Cyclops, trying to regain the trust of fellow heroes. But never the less, I'll pick up the first issue next May. By the way, I love the design of Corsair's armor,looks like the one worn by Dracula in the 1992 movie.
