Anime Cyclops
Screencaps from Marvel Anime's X-Men series. The first episode opens with Phoenix going crazy (surprise, surprise) and telekinetically picks Cyclops up, shredding his shirt in the process. Luckily for him (and unluckily for us) Cyke seems to be wearing one of 'em indestructible pants that the Hulk is aways wearing. I love that even in the astral plane Scott's still shirtless.

But for me, even though I don't like it, Cyke is a torso-haired guy (note, not only his chest, but his whole front).
There was this classic story of the All-New, All-Different X-Men (I think it was drawn by Cockrum, although it could have been Byrne, I'd have to check) where they get to the Savage Land. Cyke is hairy there (and so's Banshee).
Also, he looked a lot like daddy Corsair when he did not shave.
That is the way I see him now, even though pics like these make me wish it weren't so.
Perhaps he uses wax? I think at the very least Evo Cyclops definitely should use wax if he starts getting those hairs, LOL.
Also, thanks guys for pointing out those the issues that feature shirtless Cyke. I've got some scanning to do!
RE: X-Men Anime. DAN, the anime is just okay, don't expect too much. I do like the way Cyclops & Storm are portrayed, they're not just secondary characters who've been shoved in the background so that Wolverine can take center stage, unlike in "Wolverine & The X-Men" or the theatrical movies.
Unlike with Johnny Storm or Rictor, who are mostly smooth, and then comes someone who thinks it would be nice to add hair where there was none... I prefer to think of them as smooth.
Although in Rictor's case, he is still young enough (around 21, I'd say) to get new hair even if he was smooth til now... And it was not too much of it... But still, I want hairless Rictor, LOL.
@DAN, I kind of like that artists nowadays are allowed to make slight alterations to their design to make the character their own. Except of course when they make the characters less attractive. For example, I normally worship the great George Perez, but his Conner Kent just looks fat. XD
Of course, I grew up in the days when shirtless characters didn't have even the barest HINT of nipples or chest hair: as a result, it would never occur to me to be critical of a magnificent series like this one.
The size and shape and definition of the pecs; whether or not the nipples are visible; if they, where they are placed on the pec meat; their size, coloring, shape; chest hair if any, nipple hair if any; all these details are decision, right?
I sure like the details; but, it's ALL good...
