That is Sunspot, and if you read the comic Corsair is a complete and absolute poo poo to Sunspot immediately after this.

I'm just saying, if I was Jean Grey or Cyclops I definitely wouldn't let Corsair babysit my time displaced Cable child.

Corsair also wears a headband, because he is a cool space pirate.

I'm kind of lost and those panels are just making me a bit sad about Anton Yelchin.

I'm glad you posted this because on reading it my first thought was that if Chekov ever broke the fourth wall, this is how he'd do it (minus the "the" in the first panel).

You mean like, originally? The Summers family plane was targeted by a Shi'ar exploratory craft, who wanted to shoot it down to prevent witnesses to their existence. Corsair and his wife who is, perhaps, the epitome of "female character as tragic motivating prop" sent the kids down together with the only parachute before being abducted themselves. The Shi'ar Emperor at the time, Lilandra's evil brother D'Ken, raped and killed expendable Summers wife (but not before cutting Vulcan out of her and putting him in a tube!), and sent Corsair to the slave pits. He later escaped and became a pirate targeting the Shi'ar Empire.

No, Vulcan vaporized him and Havok joined the Starjammers to get revenge. Corsair just showed up out of nowhere in the Bendis X-Men alive and well.

Given that it was Bendis I’m actually surprised a reason was given, but

Wikipedia posted:

The time-displaced Cyclops would later learn that the Starjammers under the insistence of Hepzibah, made a deal with the mysterious Shrouded, who brought Corsair back to life. However, his resurrection came at a price, Corsair had to inject himself regularly with a nano-serum containing a collective artificial intelligence. The serum was illegal, banned by all governments across the cosmos due to the threat it posed, as it allowed A.I.s to use a living body as a host. Corsair had to go to great lengths to buy the illegal serum and to avoid arrest but there was no other way he could remain alive

FAVORITE THINGS: victor von doom doing a mental risk/reward analysis like “you know what? when this girl was fourteen she covered me in squirrels. have i rodent-proofed my poo poo since then? yes. am i in the mood to get covered in loving squirrels again? literally never. god knows what new powers she’s found since puberty. let the little devil-imp take the goddamn time machine. gently caress it. who cares. she’ll probably just end up using it to go back in time and tell herself to never come here. that’s how 90% of all time travel ends. another 5% ends with me as undisputed ruler of the entire earth. i’m not even giving her the good time machine. it’s the janky one. joke’s on her, the a/c doesn’t even work and the tapedeck is broken. doom, as ever, is the real winner here.”

I only just now noticed Galactus has a hat-brim on his helmet. So he's basically always wearing a ballcap.
