Apocalypse possesses the power and knowledge of Old Kingdom magic, powerful magic that pre-dates the fall of Atlantis and Lemuria. Now seeing as Candra said he had the power and it was his to steal it from, that should mean that he has the spells, and power and just already available on/in his person. The power of the king (which this also seems to imply Apocalypse has), in conjunction with The New Sun’s power, set fire to the fabric of reality over the Earth coursing through the atoms and left the Earth a lifeless husk. As you can see, Candra was using the magic to try and replace the Momentary Princess gem which let one travel through time and space and let one see the past and future. It was considered very powerful
Apocalypse mentions he could restore Mr. Sinister’s love, hope, and family. This would seem to indicate he can alter his mind and resurrect his wife and son.
An avatar of Apocalypse from the timestream, taking out Mr. Sinister, Sabretooth, Wolverine, and many of the New Sun’s soldiers/helpers. This also shows how The New Sun, one of the most powerful mutants ever, fears Apocalypse.
The Hellfire Club wanted to take and harness Apocalypse’s power for their own ends.
Cable states that Apocalypse's power can’t be harnessed.
The Harbinger possesses unimaginable power, but less than Apocalypse. They want to harness that power for themselves. They are bypassing trying to harness The Harbinger’s power and instead go for Apoclaypse’s, they are only using The Harbinger to track him down
Mr. Sinister talks of a huge contrast in power between Apocalypse and Harbinger+Apocalypse’s other servants. Even a fully unleashed powers Cable won’t be enough and will be relegated to only an ally in the war against Apocalypse.
Sinister and a fully unleashed powers Cable would need to be in an alliance to face Apocalypse.

As for those other scans posted, meh. Cable should've accepted Sinister's offer.

First post here, I've been an Apocalypse fan for ages!!
I know this isn't even close to canon, but I found the commercial for the 'Rise of Apocalypse' commercial. Shows him getting knocked into the path of an incoming subway train moving at full speed, and he just stops it without breaking a sweat!!
Cool commercial!! (I can't direct link yet!!)
Reorganizing Apocalypse Vs feats.
--------------------------------------------------
Vs. the High Evolutionary
Apocalypse looked to have the edge in this fight, and against a (sub) skyfather level HE, though he did not beat him. High Evolutionary is one who has fought a constantly evolving Immortal Hercules and the Avengers singlehandedly.

Vs. Prime Eternal Ikaris
Apocalypse defeats or has the definitive upper hand against Ikaris in a fight, even stating he could kill him (likely sub-atomic dispersal over a very wide area for a Prime Eternal). Does severely injure Ikaris with some sort of spike, which had to be more than a physical attack to do that to him. Ikaris also fell to Earth unconscious.

Vs. Pre-Powerdown Exodus
Apocalypse easily beats Pre-Powerdown Exodus, and was unaffected by a full telekinetic blast. Note that Bloodties Exodus isn’t really different from this one. After this, Apocalypse creates a tomb for Exodus, in which Exodus sleeps in for hundreds of years until awoken by Magneto during Fatal Attractions, which he appeared in Uncanny #304, he appeared in Bloodties in Uncanny #307, a mere 3 issues later, so not exactly enough time to become more powerful.

Vs. Cable
This is Cable fighting not only for his life, but for his destiny. He is trying to destroy Apocalypse here and prevent his or any other horrible future that may occur due to Apocalypse. As stated, Cable's bones were breaking when he hit Apocalypse. Apocalypse doesn't get one hit in, it's all Cable, then Cable uses a final attack, using all his energy in one Psimitar blast right on Apocalypse, it even mentions time and energy slowing down or stopping, and it does nothing. Apocalypse isn't harmed after all that, and he takes Cable down with one hit. Some may think Apocalypse having Cable step down by threatening Caliban was a sign of battle weakness, but the battle that just happened says otherwise. Cable was drained of power. Apocalypse and Wolverine agree it's be fruitless for Cable to continue the battle, and Apocalypse needed Cable alive, and relatively well as part of the Twelve. Apocalypse knew Cable would fight him until either himself or Cable died.

Vs. Cyclops and Jean Grey
Apocalypse had awoken from his regeneration chamber to early and hence he was weakened. Cyclops' optic beam has no effect on Apocalypse.

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/Nightmareman95/Derek9012/apocykeoptic2.jpg
A weakened Apocalypse's single blast meant for humans weakens Jean Grey after hitting her forcefield, it even hurts himself. He then proceeds to beat the crap out of Cyclops and Jean until Sinister's world destroying virus infects him. Apocalypse would adapt to it, though.

Vs. the X-Men
An extremely weakened Apocalypse (bones breaking with every step, falling apart, flesh rending, etc.) beats 6 X-Men in under 60 seconds

Vs. The X-Men Again.
As you can see here, Iceman, Rogue (with Sunfire’s powers), and Cyclops can't harm him with their attacks and he one-shots everyone he fights. It took Pulse (a mutant with Leech like power draining, except he's older), using his powers at max output to even let the X-Men have a chance. During that time period Famine Sunfire effects him with a blast, and Apocalypse goes to activate the Infernal Machine to destroy the base as his plans are ruined, the X-Men follow and destroy the control board, and he one-shots the group of them (Havok, Rogue, Pulse, Iceman, Mystique, and Cyclops) while still dampened by Pulse. He then survives a supposedly fatal reality/space-time rip, while still dampened.

Vs. Slade Hamilton
A weakened Apocalypse (As he was during the entire Apocalypse vs. Dracula mini-series) vs. one of his most powerful descendants who was also turned into a vampire (increasing his power).

Vs. Vampires
Apocalypse takes on a ton of his descendants turned into vampires (there looks to be 40+ flying to the cabin, and Apocalypse and his allies shared the load, so he likely killed about 20+, we see him fighting 7 right away, so…)

Vs. Dracula
Apocalypse (who was weakened from a combo of awaking early and Dracula's bite and not being able to complete his rejuvenation since his chamber was destroyed) vs. Dracula (who's power was vastly amplified by Apocalypse's blood through Apocalypse himself and his descendants). Apocalypse didn't start off well, but he did easily kill this powered up Dracula (though Van Helsing helped by distracting Dracula momentarily), and resisted his command after he stabbed Dracula, and broke free of it with the distraction. Dracula hasn't broken his command over other vampires that easily any other time that I can recall.

In the fullness of time, Apocalypse will become the most powerful being on the planet according to Kang the Conqueror.
Kang fears Apocalypse.
Grand scheme beyond all but Kang's ken. Evolutionary jumpstart of near-infinite potential.
Kang's prophecy/knowledge says he will be ruler of the world.
Kingdoms bow to Apocalypse's feet, mankind weeps in his presence.
Apocalypse will outlast time itself, and become history's most notorious villain.
Monarchs and tyrants shall bow to Apocalypse. Shatter the foundations of civilization through his fury. Stand ascendant throughout eternity using his powers. Will last to the end of time.
All will bow to Apocalypse in time. Never dying dynasty.
Destined to rule the word. Force of nature. Beast unleashed upon eternity. Destined to rule the word. Force of nature. Beast unleashed upon eternity.
Apocalypse will be there at the end of time (knows this due to absorbing the knowledge from Kang database crystal).
Carve a path across the history of man.
In the Rise of Apocalypse (written by Terry Kavanaugh), we learn Apocalypse will rule the world. His ascension will be an epoch in time. Will rule (and continue surviving) time until the end of time and past it. Is a force of nature. An evolutionary jumpstart of near-infinite potential. Is the greatest villain in history. Will be the most powerful being on the planet. Is the end of all that exists. Will continue surviving past the end of time. Kang was a time traveler with knowledge of many timelines and realities and what will happen in them, his database crystal/artifact had knowledge of these realities/timelines. He knew his stuff.
From the Askani prophecy and info given to Cable in the last scan (knowledge he gained of prophecy that eventually came true including the identities of the 12, etc., so the Askani knew their stuff). Apocalypse will be the form of a crisis for mankind beyond a natural disaster. Embodies the coming change, the apocalyptic conflagration that will bring it about. Will be the strongest of the strong. The world will tremble at his name. Will turn the future into a hellish nightmare. Apocalypse’s cosmic form shown standing above a mountain, ascended. His ascension is an absolute. His ultimate ascension is ‘written in stone’ so to speak, it is the future. It is gospel, it is the truth.

As for those other scans (from Rise of Apocalypse) posted, heh. Already saw those from way earlier in this thread (not too long before I joined KMC). Nice to see 'em again though.
I still can't help but feel sorry for that Logos fella 🙁, though it was nice to see Ozymandias' prophecy about The Twelve again as well.
Thanks again for posting these.

Apocalypse mind controlled the Mantis creature, and was telepathically talking through it, and, yes, he had it attack Exodus.
