There are many alternate realities and possible futures in the Marvel Universe, and in many of those futures, Alex Summers has a different kid with a different mother.
On Earth-1298, the Mutant X Earth, Alex and Madelyne Pryor have a son, Scotty, named for Alex’s brother, Cyclops.
On Earth-13133, as shown in Rick Remender’s Uncanny Avengers, Alex and Janet Van Dyne, the Wasp, have a daughter, Katie Summers, named for Alex’s mother.
And in the Age of Revelation, Alex and Lorna Dane had a son, Chris Summers, named for Alex’s dad.
At this point, if Marvel is going to keep giving Alex future and alt-reality kids, he’s going to have to start naming them after lesser relatives. Imagine, if you will…
On Earth-6610, the Ultimate Ultimate Universe, Alex and Sue Storm have a daughter named Gabriella Summers, named after Alex’s other brother. She has a fire burning inside her, too.
On Earth-592, the Age of Apocalypse’s Barber, Alex and Jennifer Walters, She-Hulk, have twin sons, Nate Grey Summers and Stryfe Summers, named after the family’s worst clones/genetically engineered relatives.
And on Earth-What If Operation Galactic Storm Had Never Ended, Alex and Deathbird have a son named Adam X the X-Tremely Mad Emperor D’Ken Summers, named after his half-brother and the guy who sired him. Never go there.
I guess what I’m trying to say is, stop giving Alex alt-reality kids, or one will eventually be named for Adam X the X-Treme.
