Bishop vs Doom

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.

Phew, and I am back. And I had a good time... ahem...

Yeah...

Anyways, his entire body can absorb energy cosmic, not just one part of it.

That is what I assumed.

Alpha, Bishop could absorb the energy of the bullet as soon as it touches his skin. Yes, even if the skin is on his head.

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.

Lol. 😂

But what about Doom's magic? And can he absorb the kinetic energy of strangling?

Cause if you say that Bishop can beat Doom, we are going too far in this pro-Xmen stuff. 🙂

Like I said, it went too far with Rogue Vs Hulk.

It's just gone downhill from there.

Yeah.

so can bishop stand in the middle of a fire and not be harmed? what about a nuclear explosion? ......... bloody x-upgrades

He can absorb telepathic energy too so mind assaults don't work on him.

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...

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.

DOOM

Bishop is DOOMed

clever.

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.

or have a doom bot handle his easy work. or inhabit bishops body and play a game of "why are you hitting yourself huh?? stop hitting yourself!"

Yeah! sounds like Doom alright.

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.
