it as waves of energy that heat the air in their path
enough to turn it into plasma. (Plasma is a super-heated
state of matter consisting of charged subatomic
particles.) These waves will emanate from his body in all
directions unless he purposefully tries to channel them
in a single directions, usually along the length of his
arms. Havok is himself immune to the intense heat he
creates.

History
General History: Alexander Summers is the younger
of the two sons of Christopher Summers, a United States
Air Force Major and test pilot, and his wife Katherine
Anne. Alex and his mother and older brother Scott were
flying back from a vacation in Christopher's vintage
airplane when the plane crashed into a scout ship of the
Shi'ar Empire, setting the wooden plane ablaze. Katherine
Anne Summers pushed Scott and Alex out of the burning
plane with the only available parachute. Thus the two
boys escaped the Shi'ar while their parents did not.
Scott and Alex both believed their parents had been
killed until as adults they were reunited with their
father, who had since become Corsair, leader of the
Starjammers, a starfaring band of adventurers. The two
boys were hospitalized for injuries they sustained during
their landing, since their overburdened parachute had
been unable to slow their decent safely enough. Scott and
Alex both suffered traumatic amnesia regarding the plane
incident. Alex left the hospital after two weeks and was
placed in an orphanage in Omaha, Nebraska. Soon adopted,
Alex had little or no contact with Scott until years
later.
Alex was unaware of Scott's developing mutant power or
his identity as Cyclops of the X-Men until after the
younger Summers had graduated from college. It was at
that time that Alex first became aware of his own mutant
abilities. A professor of archeology named Ahmet Abdol,
also a mutant, had discovered a psychic link between
himself and Summers. While both of them had the latent
mutant power to absorb and transform cosmic radiation,
Abdol's ability to exercise the power was jammed in an
unknown manner by Summers' body. The Living Pharaoh, as
this mutant was calling himself, captured the youth and
took him to his laboratory in Egypt. Abdol found a way to
screen Summers' body from ambient cosmic radiation,
permitting his own body to attain its latent potential.
Abdol was transformed into the Living Monolith, a
gigantic mutant with vast cosmic power. The Monolith was
defeated while in combat with the X-Men when Summers'
latent mutant powers surfaced under the stress of
entombment within the mechanism designed to screen him
from cosmic radiation.
Incapable of controlling the shock waves his body
emanated, Summers chose to remain in the Egyptian desert
rather than accompany the X-Men back to
America.
Summers was soon captured by one of the mutant-hunting
robotic Sentinels and brought to the headquarters of
Larry Trask, the son of the Sentinels' inventor. Trask
gave Summers the codename Havok and a costume whose chest
display monitored the build-up of cosmic energy within
him. When the X-Men finally freed Trask's captive
mutants, Summers accompanied his brother and his
teammates back to civilization where he began training to
help him keep his energy in check. Eventually Havok
gained enough mastery over his power that he would
release it only when he wished to do so, and could wield
his power skillfully enough to become a formidable
opponent in battle.
Alex remained in New York at Xavier School for the
Gifted, soon finding love in the arms of Polaris, Lorna
Dane. They both soon feel in love and
later
found they had a child on the way. They were happy and
planned on marrying after the birth of their child, only
to have the dream end on the same mission that killed
Jean Grey.
Lorna, Alex, Jean and several other of the X-Men were in
the Blackhawk on their way to Europe for the wedding of
Moya McTaggert, only to find some unknown mutants
attacking a village of poor people. The jet landed and
Lorna being pregnant, opted to stay in the jet. Alex
having had a broken leg at the time stayed with her.
Soon there was a call for help, Alex being the X-Men he
was went to help leaving Lorna, who for some unknown
reason begged him not to go, alone. He soon came back to
the jet to find Lorna bleeding and unconscious, their
baby having been lost and Lorna blaming Alex for the
loss.
She soon left New York and Alex behind. Alex stayed in
New York only to leave when his brother Scott showed up.
Alex and Scott had been fighting for a while and Alex
chose not to stay in New York with Scott. He left to the
other school in Alaska, to be with the only other person
hes close to, Jean Grey.
