Well that's lame, but good for her I guess.

I still want to know whether Jubilee has her mutant powers back while still being a Vampire.

And TAJ what are you talking about? Wolverine still feels stuff, nothing about his feeling factor should affect his sex life. Why am I even talking about this.

Vampire Jubilee > Mutant Jubilee
 
Damn I forgot with my Colossus opinion to mention he bones Kitty Pryde a lot so that must be a plus

With Forge's powers you could replicate that ability over a weekend.
And I can't believe they even brought Cypher back from the grave. He totally got red-shirted. "Well, we called this huge event 'The Fall of the Mutants'. SOMEONE has to die."Marvel death, lol.
 
Sounds like Franklin Richards is the best choice. So godlike, he can be immortal and alter reality he sees fit.

On another note, this omega level stuff sounds insane. Like screw it, let's just start buffing everyone and it became an arms race.

would Forge be able to translate an ancient dead written language without some sort of 'Rosetta stone?'

Aliens from another plane of existence, Cypher can intuitively understand them as if he was born and raised in their culture.

I didn't know he was alive again but being able to understand anyone from anywhere in the Universe including their writings would be awesome.

Forge is the poor man's Madison Jefferies. Imagine you can do what Forge does, but construct it with your mind.

I never knew about the classifications until a few years ago. Omega level mutants are the shit. Iceman became super super powerful!!!!

Lila Cheney, interstellar rock star.

Powers and abilities

She has the ability to generate a teleportational field about herself with which can transport herself and other people/objects across interstellar distances, even across the Milky Way galaxy. But she can't teleport across distances shorter than several light-years. Hence, when she teleports from one spot on Earth to another, she actually teleports herself to her Dyson sphere from her starting point, and then teleports herself from the sphere to the other point on Earth. Apparently, she must specifically know any location to which she teleports herself in order to do so.

Why is Iceman Omega level? I always liked him but I didn't know he was that strong.

Because it was seen as an opportunity to make a super strong character who couldn't just blast through stuff and be awesome right away. One of the few good scenes in Xmen 3 was when Bobby went 100% ice the first time.

Kitty Pride's VAJ is completely broken from that one time Colussus came and totally lost control and powered up. metal boner totally ripped her.

His AoA counterpart was even better(like most)....he was able to project a "translation field" across all of Avalon, so that all refuges could all instantly and intuitively understand each other.
 
I have always loved the idea behind omega level mutants.

And i remember when Douglock ran with Excalibur. You know what else i enjoy is when you have characters with what you may think are mediocre powers and they use them in classy ways.
 
Hard to pick just one but Phoenix/Iceman/Storm/Mystique would be fun ones to have.

I've loved Storm's weather manipulation powers for the longest time, but I can bang all the straight guys with Mystique's powers and mess with their heads mid-sex and change back into a guy. Yeah, that would be the greatest.
 
Scarlet Witch is the real answer.

Storm is an awful choice. Her powers take too much spin up, by the time you need them you could be dead.

Nope. Some members of the x-men have reached their full potential, Bobby still has a lot of growth ahead of him. He just to knock down the mental barriers holding him back. But I guess witnessing all those cases of looney Omega mutants does that to you.

But storm is literally one of the flashiest X-men. He wouldn't want to monologue like a god and then ruin people's day at the beach?

The designation is all about potential, not just outright power...it's why Jean and Bobby were labeled as Omegas by Xavier as teenagers. Raw power is part of it, but it moreso means they have unlimited potential in the use of their abilities.

Many mutants are capable of great power, but reach a limit, and then if exceeded, their bodies would be consumed by their own power.

Jean is able to become pure psionic energy, and quite frankly, death just makes her stronger....Bobby can reform himself in elemental form becoming pure ice, recover from mortal wounds using water, and can exist anywhere in the universe where there is even a molecule of water.

For those shocked at Iceman's potential, there have been several key moments that have shown this:

After a situation with Loki, Iceman's powers were disrupted and always "on". He froze all of Central Park, and needed to be around the power negating morlock named Leech, or wear an inhibitor belt, to control his powers

During a brawl with Colossus' brother, Mikhail, at the X-Mansion, Bobby was forcefully transformed from his "ice-encased" form to water, then reformed into pure ice,, then shattered into pieces, then was restored to human form. Mikhail told Bobby he is capable of all of this himself, if he pushed himself

After that, Iceman started using a pure ice form, and using ice to transform into a larger, bulkier form, capable of inflicting greater physical damage.

When a power surge caused a comatosed Emma Frost's mind to jump into Iceman's body, she was capable of feats she had no idea Iceman could do. She jumped into a river and in just seconds reappeared miles upstream, she was able to "melt" and slide under a door, Archangel's wing darts passed harmlessly through her, and she took a shot to the chest but suffered no real injury.

His AoA counterpart was able to transport himself and a large group of others across great distances, though it wasn't a smooth ride to say the least

Iceman was able to detect Onslaught, despite his psionic shielding, by seeing in terms of temperature instead of optics

Frustrated with his fear of dying if he transformed back to human form after getting a huge blast in the chest in ice form, he confronts Emma Frost on how she did those things with his powers...after a bitchy brush off, he shows he is serious by freezing the blood flow in her brain...eventually, she convinces him to just change back and trust that his body will be healed.

That's a far as my knowledge goes...I haven't been a regular reader in over 10 years. From memory, details may not be 100% accurate.

Fucking a member of the X-Men doesn't exactly make you an X-Man, though. Imagine how many members there are in the FF thanks to Johnny if we're going by that criteria.

Dude married Rachel Summers on three different alternate realities, has lead the X-men on the future, has been a part of Generation X after the Onslaught saga.

I think it's safe to say that he is eligible.

And using alternate reality sagas is just silly. None of that is stuff that affects the "real" versions that are used for the weekly/monthly comic books. Then we might as well say Havok from The Six and be done with it (being the home of the Nexus of Realities and omnipotent).

You are right about Generation X though. I had forgotten about that. It's why Arty and Leech live with him in his parents building now.




I'm also happy to see another mention for Exodus! He's an interesting character.

So 98% of the time he is a normal mutant but has a few case of great displays of power, some of time where even done by him. I don't think that makes him an Omega level mutant, more like he is capable of becoming one for some specific times. All that stuff sounds pretty cool though.
 
Isn't Franklin Richards pretty much the absolutely most powerful mutant possible? But is he in X-Men?

Otherwise it's Jean.

Franklin richards is most certainly a mutant, though not *technically* an Xman.

Jean isn't anywhere near the strongest mutant. She has a strong affinity with the phoenix force, but that's really a separate entity, and she's not the only wielder. Rachel grey had it for a long time, for instance.

James Jaspers is the most powerful mutant on the planet. He's a villain, not an Xman, but is demonstrated to be harder to kill than the phoenix force is. Force sufficient to blow up a universe is not enough to kill james jaspers, and his existence potentially endangered all reality.

The strongest X-MAN is (obviously) "X-man" before they nerfed him. Stated outright to be as powerful as the phoenix force on his own.

His telekinesis was so powerful that he could move massive objects with his mind, fire blasts of psychokinetic energy that could shatter steel, create mental barriers that could stop most attacks, levitate his body, and fly at supersonic speeds. He was powerful enough to single handedly defeat Tundra of the Great Beasts and was even able to psionically isolate the planet's gravitational pull on the two other Great Beasts, Lolomaq and Somon.[47] He also crushed the whole town of San Francisco de Quito, Ecuador while asleep in Buenos Aires, Argentina over 2600 miles away.[48] His control over his telekinesis was so acute that he was able to create holograms by mentally manipulating water molecules and dust to refract light, bend security lasers to avoid detection, and even move the atoms of a wall around his form so that he passed through the wall like a ghost. He was also able to use his telekinesis to bend the Earth's magnetic field and create electromagnetic pulses. His telekinesis extended to at least a molecular level, and he could imbue himself with super human physical attributes by focusing his telekinesis inwards.

After his brief return from his dimensional travels that equipped him with a special genetic dampener that would eventually prevent his powers from killing him, Nate displayed further abilities, which included precognition, the power to view and transverse higher planes of existence, to reconstitute his body from astral energy in a similar manner as Onslaught and to transform his physical body back into astral energy. Though not a real teleporter, he then could traverse alternate realities by breaking the barriers between universes and once ‘teleported’ multiple people all over an alternate version of New York into a completely other dimension.[25] Since he was able to connect any point in one dimension with any point in the dimension he was in at the moment, he could theoretically also use this to cross vast interstellar distances by traveling back and forth.

yeah, that guy is beast mode. almost laughably overpowered, there really isn't anyone who could take him out. At a power level matching or exceeding dark phoenix, he's even significantly stronger than Wanda is.

Absolon could still beat both. He can negate mutant powers!

from how far away? Xman doesn't even need to be on the same plane to kill you, and jaspers could either kill him from the other side of the universe, or warp him into a gingerbread cookie.

edit: i forgot about Mr M, so i had to re-read up on him. looks like a powerful reality manipulator, but he's not on the level of jaspers or franklin. X-man being "dark phoenix" level would *probably* be beyond him also. tough call there though.

proteus is weak to metal, and his powers have a limited range. you could technically take him out with just a sniper rifle.

I believe the query is coolness. Also spidey was considered a mutant in canon before and got his power through radiation exposure but molecule man cant be a mutant? Thats some racist shit right there.
