so his skin can absorb these attacks....... what about his eyes? Doom could poke him in the eyes and run away......... then, when Bishop can't see him, use a long range sniper rifle
Uhh... I think that when the energy touches him, he absorbs it. When he absorbed Onslaught's blast, his eyes were open, and they didn't get burned out, or anything. So, I guess his eyes can absorb energy too.
You said yourself, if he is caught unaware it won't work. If he could literally absorb anything and everything thrown at him he'd be ranked alot higher.
True, he can't. He can absorb any type of energy, but not if he doesn't know it's coming. Many of his enemies have used this to their advantage. Once, Juggernaut snuck in and landed a punch on him, knocking him out. How Juggernaut can sneak is beyond me.

why would u assume Doom would blast someone who absorbs kinetic energy...with energy blasts? that would be stupid and not in his nature...he would probably either turn off Bishop's powers, or infect him with a techno organic virus...or suck all the life force out of his body or something...
Yeah, that was a stip I added in the first post. No turning off his powers. Doom has to find another way to beat him. I dunno, I think the jury is out on magic, as far as I know. It IS energy, but... shrug. It seems to be a fifty fifty thing. Does Doom actually do that? Suck the life force out of his opponents? The ones who aren't cosmic levelled, I mean. Anyways, Doom can try strangling or beating Bish up, but it's not going to be easy. Like I said, Bishop knowns tactics for countering almost any super power, super strength included, and he's a damn good fighter.
what could bishop do to doom?
ive never heard bishop being able to absorb any kentetic energy....hmm...i do remember him being totally drained and sitting in the rain absorbing each drops power to power up ...ehh makes sense id guess.
doom can stop time right? a time stopped bishop cant expect much of anything.
a well place foot to the yarbles is all thats needed.
Can't Doom switch bodies with people. Why can't he just activate a self-destruct mode in his armour, do a quick switch and watch evily as Bishop's new bod goes up in a blaze of glory...well a blaze a least.
I don't buy this. It's almost as dubious as Doomsday's alleged power.
If he can block anything he's expecting: why not just expect everything all the time? How do we define expecting? Physically anticipating the specific attack? What about a machine gun? Surely he isn't anticipating each bullet, so he's just generally anticipating the attack: again, why not always anticipate everything?
Another case of X-Men upgrading going past the point of credulity I feel.
Unless anyone has a proper explanation of how the power functions.
