You tell a man he's a god enough times, and he'll start to be believe it. You strip away his humanity by worshipping him, and eventually he'll think it's his right to lord over you. Continuously mention that his powers are the only reason the planet still turns, and one day that virtue that compels him to save you will turn into the vice that causes him to decimate whole cities without remorse.
However, despite that recipe for disaster, there's still one more key ingredient. The inner struggle that a person like this would face. Someone who struggles with difficult decisions everyday in regard to the safety of others. Out of millions of people, who do you save and who do you let die? How do you deal with humanity's capacity for ingratitude when you don't save them in the manner they wish to be saved? How do you deal with people who try to marginalize your feats by calling you a "pervert in underwear?"
The answer is simple in the case of Plutonian. You've ignored that he is human (or humanoid) and has human weaknesses and emotions. You've rejected his attempts to be normal, to give him something that anchors him to his human side. There's no longer any need for him to act like a mere human. You've made him a god, and now, he becomes a god. He has every right to judge anyone--hero, villain, and civilian--because he's your god, a monster of human creation.
"What makes a hero IRREDEEMABLE?" What if the world's most respected superhero became a raging, maniacal supervillain? How would the world survive?
"You can't stay here..."
"Why the hell would I bother to leave? You don't get it. The Plutonian has gone rogue. We're all going to die."
"What if the world's greatest supervillain decided to become the world's greatest hero?"
What would happen if one of the world’s most notorious villains suddenly was wearing a white hat? Bad guys turning over a new leaf isn’t a new concept. It’s happened before even if it is a temporary move. Magneto, Sandman, Juggernaut and Deathstroke are examples that come to mind.
From a good guy's perspective, you can see all the sin and evil and filth and as long as your moral code holds, you can resist it. But if your code fails, well, then, it's open season on evil and debauchery.
But to come the other way is a lot less clear. Whilst you're in the bad place, you can do whatever the hell you want, to whom you want, with whom you want. If you want to reverse that, what's your moral compass? This journey is a lot more personal and less Universe-shaking than the other way.
Cyclops is forming a new team with the goal to promote the mutant cause by putting a flashy group out in public that would be more like the better known superheroes than a bunch of underground militant activists. Hence, the return of the tights. No sooner does the line-up get set than they get word that a scientists has created a so-called cure to the mutant gene that causes a variety of ethical debates as well as fear of what that could do in the wrong hands. This happens just as a new alien villain called Ord starts causing trouble.
