Apocalypse fights Prime Eternal Ikarus. His punch waylays Ikarus, while his bearhug proves inescapable to Ike. Ikarus's punch also doesn't hurt Apocalypse.

Apocalypse fights the High Evolutionary. Apocalypse laughs off a big blast from HE, it doesn’t effect him. Apocalypse hurts HE in altered size, and sends him sailing with one shot.

Apocalypse fights the norse god of lies and mischief himself. Loki needs to put effort into breaking free from his one handed grip (notice his facial grimace). Loki is estimated to be between class 50 and 70, so he’s a strong guy.

Apocalypse fights the X-Men in a weak state, and defeats them under sixty seconds. Apocalypse also Blows himself up and regenerates while severely weakened. Note (afterwards) the emaciated body, missing a chink of his leg, missing most of his torso except the very front, the regeneration. Also note the fact that the blast and the ‘spikes’ coming from him were omnidirectional and not just directed at Colossus and Archangel; and that he didn’t just blast in their direction or send 2 tendrils or big spikes or some other morphing to knock them off him. Also note that it isn’t just a simple energy release or the ‘spikes’ would not be there, and they weren’t part of the attack in that the energy was the main attack, so why were they there. With the explosion he exploded outwards in some manner, then regenerated.

Apocalypse restrains the Hulk with one arm. He did have leverage on his side there in dragging him, but he got the Hulk into that position in the first place and the Hulk couldn’t break free.

Apocalypse holds She-Hulk apparently helpless in a choke. He also shows that he can detach his head from his body and fly it around, so decapitation shouldn’t be a problem.

Apocalypse one shots Frenzy, who’s durability (which was already very impressive) and strength were uncontrollably amped multiple times over.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/powe34.png

Apocalypse takes all of Cable’s power focused into one massive psimitar blast directly on him, to no effect. Apocalypse also takes Cable down in one hit. Cable’s fought the savage Hulk (Onslaught controlled) and didn’t have that type of trouble with him.

Apocalypse regenerates from a puddle of ooze while severely weakened. Note how he’s regenerating up from liquid, his legs look more like the size of blue bones and liquid compared to his pelvic area and the holes for his legs, and parts of his body looking emaciated, the back of his head even drooping from an ooze form.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/apocregernate.png

Apocalypse heals very fast from being stabbed through his body by one. Nice morphings, snaps the necks of a few of his most powerful descendants that became vampires Also kills them with a nice blade hand morphing.

Apocalypse is bitten by Dracula and even fell under some of his influence in a weakened state, and being a vampire at that point he would possesses vampiric powers and have control over them after healing to them as he does with other infections. Dracula doesn’t lose control over all vampires (he has control over all vampires as lord of the vampires) due to the distraction of pain- as he lost control of Apocalypse, so it seemed Apocalypse was already healing, and Dracula seemed to be trying to exert his will on Apocalypse after he was stabbed and it did not work, which should indicate he had already healed. He most definitely had after the fight with his healing powers working.

Apocalypse takes X-Factor, the Inhumans, (Black Bolt!) Askani/Rachael Summers, and Charlotte Jones w/big tech gun- hitting him with everything they had to no effect, he waded through it.

Apocalypse takes Cyclops’ full power blast like nothing hit him.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/powers6.png

Again, Apocalypse takes on Cyclops' optic beam with no effect on him, even in his weakened state woken from his sleep too early.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/powers5.png

Once again, Cyclops's optic beam has no effect on Apocalypse.

Apocalypse takes a full telekinetic blast from Exodus with no effect, and blasts Exodus away. Apocalypse also creates a force field able to hold and even pre-powerdown Exodus.

A weakened Apocalypse’s single blast meant for humans, weakens Jean Grey after hitting her forcefield (heck it even knocks himself over)
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/powers22.png

Apocalypse is able to generate a seemingly endless supply of projectiles from his body is very interesting, it seems it’s energy so more to add to the self generating energy fire.

Interesting energy direction. Shows that Apocalypse can control his energy projections.

Just a few scans that got missed.

Little bit of reality warping/matter manipulation. Maybe both. Creates a mantis creature as strong as ten regular humans, in one limb.

Beats down a heavily amped Frenzy. In your own words: "Takes out Frenzy, who’s durability (which was already very impressive) and strength were uncontrollably amped multiple times over. Tower is usually around 7 feet at normal, 15 feet using his growth power, with his powers amped so much he looked to be around 40 feet or so normal, that’s without controlled/conscious growth, so they were amped maybe 6x their original levels or so. Frenzy has shown to be a class 50 or so character, even fighting Colossus well. Amped 6x or so she’d be class 300 or so. Even lowballing her at class 30 she’d be around class 180, and even lowballing how much she was ampd in conjunction with that, she’d still be at least class 90 with 3x her impressive durability. So very impressive for Apocalypse to one shot her."

Uh....not quite sure what's going in these next two. You said it was time manipulation though at the time. Apoc looks like shit in the 2nd scan.

finally, Apoc may get some of the respect he deserves. 😄 Mad props Ash.

Eh, I don't know about that. I mean, no one has replied to it for that matter, neither does it seem like anyone has checked out this thread, 🙁

It's a slower forum, and lots of people view without posting. Patience.

Strength, ice, and telekinesis can't effect him. 😛 😄

Apoc! clap Apoc! clap Apoc! clap Wait, let's cheer for the man responsible for this. Evil_Ash! clap Evil_Ash! clapEvil_Ash!clap Evil_Ash! Hooray for Evil_Ash&Apocalypse! clap

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y93/Jyppe/apocalypseowns.jpg - Apocalypse literally owns the Monolith.

Makes sense. Apoc MADE the Living Monolith. 😄

Thanks for you contribution, Jyppe. 🙂

Just though I should post the very first appearance of Apocalypse. 😎

I heard someone initially planned him to be the third summers brother, but that it was scrapped after the writer left Marvel.

Apoc works above other villains. 😖hifty:

Thank you! 🙂

What is that? We have a lot of different villains from all over Marvel in that picture. Is that some kind of special comic, like Justice League or something? 😕

Oh, I almost forgot. RESPECT TO APOCALYPSE! thumbsup

Cool thread. Apocalypse is pretty awesome villain. 😄

It was Loki (in human disguise), who had manipulated villains into joining his uprising into battling heroes.

Loki approached Apocalypse, asking him to join as well. However, Apocalypse stated that he had watch Loki in secret, playing at being a servant to villains, while he actually in fact had manipulated these villains into fighting heroes. Loki transformed into his real form. And Apocalypse and Loki began fighting. Apocalypse then traps Loki in his Celestial machines (Which were draining Loki of his powers), and began telling Loki that he will not be manipulated by him like the other villains, and that he's wiser, stronger, than perhaps they. And can see through his tricks and lies. Apocalypse also said, that he not only refuses to join Loki, but will oppose him, whenever he can. In the end, Loki successfully frees himself from the machines, and escapes.

In other words, Apocalypse OWNED Loki. 😎

Cool 😄 For being a cruel mastermind of pure evil and supreme intelligence, Apocalypse talk a lot to himself.
He lack social life 😕 Poor Apocalypse.
