see the thing is prof. x holds back a lot. He normally not the main figure in battle becuase he dislike to fight.However it always seemed to me that he was far more powerful then he let on.
also was not onslaught tp powers xiavers?

Exactly,Cable had to learn how to use his powers to stem the vrrius from a young age whilst X didn't get his powers till puberty,that covers the age Gap.
ok well the only other telepath that is more powerful thena non jobbering prof. x is strange.
on a side note x is more powerful then MM when x is not jobbering. since x not jobbering is onslaught. in fact x may even be more powerful then onslaught (the first incarnation of onslaught) now because x was able to simulate mags powers in onslaught and x has been around a lot more powerfull mutants now. Just saying that he should be able to simulate other mutant powers. of course in an actual battle I don't think x wins any battle because he will never really cut lose. serously the guy let normal college students beat him near death.
Hello...Fernus is Jonn nonjobbering and he was easily controlling world leaders, and lobotomizing villains and mass hypnotizing individuals to kill The JLA's close ones. He didn't show any signs of weakness. It was like child's play. And this was all while fighting the Justice League. So Xavier is not more powerful.
Most comics, if they refer to Xavier as a mutant, refer to him as having the greatest mutant mind, not being the greatest mutant telepath. Despite what most people on here say, I still think that Xavier is pretty much the best at what he does. Sure, there are more people with more power (including Jean and all of her children). But there aren't very many that are more skilled. Even Strange's feats as a TP, while on the surface are more powerful, are more limited in scope.
I think there are a couple reasons for that. Strange's telepathy is based in mysticism. So while the application may be similar in certain cases, the foundation is very different. Of course, Magneto aslo screwed with the Earth's magnetic field to make life more difficult for TPs. When he's been off world, his range has been pretty good. And then there's the skill factor...
Honestly, all things considered, I do think Xavier could take down 99.8% of all the world's TPs, except for the top, top tier: Jean, Emma, Strange, maybe Moondragon. But the fact that Xavier has been operationg so long and certain aspects of his character are just coming to light say to me that not only is he good, but he's damned good at covering his tracks.
