Brian Michael Bendis (/ˈbɛndɪs/; born August 18, 1967) is an American comic book writer and artist. Starting with crime and noir comics, Bendis eventually moved to mainstream superhero work. While at Marvel Comics, Bendis worked with Bill Jemas and Mark Millar as the writer on the first book of the Ultimate Marvel imprint, Ultimate Spider-Man, which debuted in 2000. He relaunched the Avengers franchise with New Avengers in 2004, wrote the Marvel storylines "Avengers Disassembled" (2004–2005), "Secret War" (2004–2005), "House of M" (2005), "Secret Invasion" (2008), "Siege" (2010) and "Age of Ultron" (2013), and co-created the characters Riri Williams, Miles Morales, and Jessica Jones. Bendis has won five Eisner Awards for both his creator-owned work and his work on various Marvel Comics books. Though he has cited comic book writers such as Frank Miller and Alan Moore, Bendis' writing influences are less rooted in comics; drawing on the work of David Mamet, Richard Price, and Aaron Sorkin, whose dialogue, Bendis said, was "the best in any medium." In addition to writing comics, Bendis has worked in television, video games and film. He has also taught courses on graphic novels at the University of Oregon and Portland State University. In 2014, Bendis wrote Words for Pictures: The Art and Business of Writing Comics and Graphic Novels, a book about comics published by Random House.

Suggested by kingultron2
After a Danger Room training session with Wolverine, Beast, and Jean Grey, Cyclops is summoned by Professor X, who insists that he take a break from the X-Men for some personal reflection time. Cyclops leaves on his motorcycle and decides to drive to Anchorage, Alaska. Reflecting on his childhood, he is caught by an oncoming blizzard and pulls over to a motel. While he is checking in, he is attacked by Juggernaut and Black Tom Cassidy. Cyclops quickly knocks out Black Tom by destroying a nearby car, then lures Juggernaut onto a frozen lake, where he blasts a hole in the ice and sinks Juggernaut. As Cyclops questions Black Tom about why they are attacking him, Juggernaut reappears with the motel desk girl as a hostage. Cyclops, however, holds Black Tom as a hostage, knocks him out with an optic blast, and threatens to kill him unless Juggernaut releases the civilian. Juggernaut complies and confesses that he and Black Tom were hired by a new foe, Ulysses, to kill Cyclops for one million dollars. Cyclops convinces Juggernaut to return to Ulysses and lie and say that Cyclops was dead. Juggernaut and Black Tom leave, unaware that Cyclops has planted a tracking device on Black Tom. Cyclops then leaves to follow them to the mysterious Ulysses.
