PAD more than suggests that there's something to jamie's powers, if not his very existence, that neither he nor we have any idea of. should be interesting, especially for apparent multiple man fans like us.
and stormfront, i'm really not sure what you're trying to say there... omegas are classified by their unlimited potential and the fact that their genetics will, at some point, grant them the ability to transcend beyond the limitations of human existence. examples: iceman, kid omega. jean's ever-redefined phoenix connection could possibly be considered a "transcendence," though the beyonder made a point to imply she may "one day" replace the phoenix, also implying her "transcendence" has not fully occurred yet. whether elixir has transcended (highly unlikely) or not yet is immaterial in the argument that he will at one point, as he is an omega.
i forgot what i was trying to say. something aboput how omega level mutants don't have to transcend to be omega.....i think that was it.
