See this? This is EXACTLY what should happen to those bullsh|t "psi shields" when going up against an Omega level psion.The only excellent scene in this entire AvX debacle. If only it was P5 Namor crushing Spider Woman's skull like this after melting her SHIELD implants or P5 Emma r@ping Hank Pym with an omega level psibolt.
Why do you keep using the word "omega"?

Actually , that doesn't make her an "omega-level" mutant . Emma is an omega-class telepath , not an omega-level mutant(like the likes of Jean Grey , Bobby Drake , Legion , , Vulcan , Hope Summers etc) . She doesn't have the limitless potential generally associated with omega-level mutants .
then people need to be clearer with their distinctions. sneer

I thought it was stated in Uncanny X-Force that she is.
There's also this:
I'll look for it later.
Rick Remender: I can't speak to how Psylocke has been used by all other writers, but to me, having her fly makes her too powerful. Stealthy super-ninja/burgeoning Omega-level telepath is plenty for one character, in my mind. That's not to say that she hasn't been shown to have other abilities. To be frank, her history is a bit scattered and in order to make a cohesive backstory for her, I had to make some executive decisions as to what I would and would not be using. To use it all would just be too many ingredients in the soup, and I believe would make the character less interesting and believable.

We're going to be seeing a lot of that. She is an Omega level. One thing we wanted to accomplish with this story was that Betsy comes out a full fledged Omega level mutant, on par with Xavier or Jean. In my mind, that's what was accomplished when Jean unlocked the powers in her head.
