Phoenix is still practically more powerful than any DC telepath 🙂

Maggedonn? Didn't MM enter his mind or something like that?

Hmmmm... Adam Warlock/Magus > Martian Manhunter

White Martians.... Hmmmm.... Dr. Strange > Moondragon W/Mind Gem > White Martians

Guardians... Hmmmm... Phoenix > Guardians/Despero/Maggeddon 😄

Having Phoenix in there is as unfair as having spectre, imps, and the true Angels in this fight who I haven't forgotten about...

Sorry DC fanboys boy Marvel takes this. This is Marvel's forte. There are too many psions to count in Marvel

wow thank you metalmanx you are the only one in this thread to point out people are underestimating Xavier....again!!

take out phoenix because it's stupid (or throw in lucifer and michael who also possess unltd psionic powers), then this is extremely close. nothing fanboy about it. numbers? are you kidding? there are THOUSANDS or white martians, each at manhunter levels.

i still say dc takes this if phoenix is taken out or evened off by including lucifer and michael.

Sh*t, it's always these damn White Martians! With a whole race of MM-level telepaths DC wins naturally, IF you think taking in a whole race of NAMELESS high level telepaths is more justified than taking in Jean.

Jesus has telepathy and he's on the side of Marvel. ( Hint, hint I'm being facetious. )

does xavier get cerebra? If he does, then many, many,many Dc telepaths are instantly killed............

i doubt it. hector hammond could likely match xavier even WITH cerebro. and wm's ARE acceptable because they are only mortals. phoenix is should be seen as a multiversal force, not a freakin' telepath. include an avatar if you want (rachel summers or something), but to include the pf itself is silly in this type of discussion.

Why is that cos it wins?

He has a point.
When we add Wite Crown Phoenix to the Marvels, we should also add Lucifer and/or Michael to the DCs...and they would cancel eachother out.

And yes, adding the White Martians is legitimate...but it has no style, because it's adding mass instead of characters.

True......

ya forgit that darksied in his pre-crisis days was a mega teleph. fare above minds like strange and prof x.

I don't think Strye is in the list above. I agree that Jean should be out, but Rachel is fair game (and her power is immense). Hell, throw in all the Askani as well. And don't forget Starthief.

Hmm, I can't believe I forgot to add the eradicator to that list.
Starro the conquerer
and Matrix Supergirl (she's still around somewhere)

<<And yes, adding the White Martians is legitimate...but it has no style, because it's adding mass instead of characters.>>

i agree whole-heartedly, but most seem to think (and the thought has been prevalent in this forum for a long time) that marvel telepaths greatly outnumber dc's telepathic characters and so marvel wins. they don't. if the thread was EARTH telepaths, i'd easily concede the win to marvel, but it's dc's v marvel's -- all inclusive, though again, i think bringing in cosmics like phoenix and michael and lucifer is rather silly.

<<Why is that cos it wins?>>

er, no. because it's pointless. 🙄

Not a problem at all, my friend. Just doing what needs to be done.

What happened to the respect and for and understanding of Xavier around here anyway?

As for the White Martians (and Watcher females etc) imo nameless amorphous masses of characters shouldn't really be included.
