Who has the best absorbing powers?

Just curious. When has Bishop ever been shown to have some sort of punishable limit to his energy absorbing? I've never once read anything about him possibly exploding if he absorbs too much. If I'm wrong, that's cool, I've just never heard it before.

Hasn't Esme overloaded him with Psionic Energy? In Murder of the Mansion?

Paracite from DC.

I don't know that much about Bishop, but I've read a few things with him. One of the most memorable moments of that was when he grabbed ahold of Rogue when she had the whole metamorph all powers at once thing, and he tried to absorbed her power. He charged up in his own words 'to my limits!' and got burnt.

Green Lantern's can absorb all different kinds of energy. Singularities, cosmic energy, life forces, etc.

The new GL rings do have limits though; Kyle's ring once almost exploded when he tried to absorb a lot.

Ive always thought absorbing man was kinda cool. He could have been a great villian.

Frostbite from DV8 was pretty cool and could absorb quite a bit but would then have to release it right away in a consternated blast.

Absorbing Man takes this 😐

With energy, I say Silver Surfer

With water or whatnot, Iceman (obviously)

With fire, Human Torch

With life, Galactus 😛

With over all I would have to say Rogue or Parasite just because they could have any or all of the others powers and do the same feats.

You all seem to have forgotten Quasar.... energy absorbtion is the guys schtick, he has unlimited storage capacity when absorbing energy

When dishing out some of his energy he totally overloaded the Absorbing Man to the point of implosion:

The only thing he has a problem with is magic:

Thor is right up there with him though, and magic doesn't faze him:

Quasar is pretty impressive; The infinte absorbtion matches Cap Atom, but not being able to handle magic makes about half the forces able to beat him.

Sauron is one. I don't think he has a limit to the power he can take in.

Whats his most impressive feat? I THINK it was him causing a plane to lose power.
