Alex Summers unleashes his plasma energy in this dynamic guide on how to draw Havok from X-Men comics. Cyclops’ younger brother possesses the ability to absorb cosmic radiation and release it as powerful energy blasts. This action pose captures him mid-leap with his signature chest disc glowing, ready to discharge devastating plasma rings at his enemies.

Step-by-Step Color System
Each illustration uses colors to indicate progress:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.

The diagonal pose requires attention to foreshortening and balance. To draw more X-Men team members, try the Iceman tutorial featuring another founding member, or the Beast guide for one of Havok’s teammates from X-Factor.
