I showed him psychically overpowering Psylocke on the Astral Plane.
The Handbook is my reference. His remark to Storm could possibly count as a comic reference.
His remark that no where says he has telepathy or is a telepath that is and you showed that he does his homework and is immune to the mutant powers of the X-Men, great job.
Now that I remember it that fight took place in Jean's subconscious and that astral Sinister was a defense mechanism to keep the X-Men from overriding the program. Thanks for having me re-read the storyline
I wonder why Sinister had to blow away the fortress rather then telepathically blocking or hiding the info from Polaris's head? Could it be he's not the telepath that everyone in the Marvel Universe knows he isn't? Nah, I'll just go with his never referenced and only one story arc "use" for the thousand Alex.
And Polaris is mighty disrespectful for someone under his "telepathic" control

Yes because in the very same issue he accesses the Astral Plane, Erases memories and prevent Psylocke from leaving the Astral Plane.
He didn't because he didn't want to take the risk Psylocke finding even the slightest bit of information about him. He'd have to face Psylocke if he did it telepathically.
Also notice how she said "You could have warned me". How do you think he was going to warn her when he wasn't even in the room.
Sinister Astral Projected into Jeans mind all the way from Xaviers office. There is no tech mentioned in the issue. And the Handbook clarifies this use of telepathy.
He obliterates Jeans memories. And prevents Psylocke from leaving the Astral Plane. Also notice how all the telepaths are coloured in while all the non-telepaths are not.
If you read the arc you'll know that Polaris is not under Sinisters control. She's under Malices control. That's Malice being disrespectful to Sinister.
Marvel seem to think he's a telepath since he has his own bio dedicated to it.

YES, Sinister GRANTED himself TELEPATHY AND TELEKINISIS via TECH.
Does he need tech TO USE IT?
NO.
Numerous scans have been provided showing Sinister as both a telepath and a telekinetic.
It never says that he NEEDS the tech to be able to use it.
He granted himself the power. Using tech, he permanently changed the structure of his DNA. He gave himself powers. Now he can use them wherever he likes.
Also, with flight, teleportation, and complete molecular control, I doubt Juggs is touching Sinister, much less BFRing him.
Didn't bump this thread to comment on the fight. Just on Sinisters abilities. Looking back at the discussion on whether Sinister does or does not possess telepathy seems pretty retarded. I wonder I why any of us(X, Smurph, BAsh) wasted our time.
Regarding Bedlam. My best guess is that she was empowered with the ability to psy Juggs through his helmet. The point of these exemplars is that they duke it out until there is one clear winner. The winner is suppose to prove which of the deities that empowered them is the most powerful. Her deity would no doubt know of Juggs helmet and have a way to counter it.
Regarding Sinister. I will agree that he is indeed a psychic. But, I very much doubt his psy-power is strong enough to go through Juggs' helmet. Anyone who chooses to fight the Juggernaut can only really survive the encounter. Outside BFR, Sinister loses.
