It is in a way though. Iceman is the prime example of an Omega Mutant who's miles away from getting anyway near that potential due to his personality. Genetically speaking he has "Unlimited Potential" but he's immature and lacks both focus and drive.

Supermen? Including Gladiator? Do you even know what Vulcan can and does do? Fine you think he wins, but ignore everything he done before that.
Yup. All of them.

LOL killing him? He also said it was a game and was bored of it. You want to listen to one thing be prepared to have the rest thrown back in your face.
Really? Must be why the next time they met Maj admitted that he wasTRYING to stop Erads from KILLING him. Yep. Sounds like a game. ❌
Meanwhile...Vulcan just simply got stomped. The proof is completely on panel for both things. I'm not denying anything, but you are.

If only he had Obi-Wan to guide him...

That doesn't sound like a stipulation to me EC,
Vulcan didn't get prep, that's not Gladiator's fault,
it's not like if Gladiator had prep.No mental blocks or limitations were placed on Vulcan,
he was simply not told about "what he was up against?" ... Like Gladiator?Only way I interpret that concerning it helping Vulcan is, he needs prep,
in order to look into Glads' weakness to cheese his way to a win.I don't know,
imo ... that was the old school Gladiator in the house for a change.
(containing explosions that can destroy half the solar system/flies at 100 x light speed,
laughs in the center of a direct concentrated nova blast)My bad, I'm ranting, I like Glads. 🙂
He was confident vs Vulcan, perhaps confident Gladiator > omega level mutants. 😂

They're not exactly abstracts
Although Exoduscloak explained,
that this classification is based on "potential" further down the road (in the future sorta speak)
As far as their comparison to abstracts,
we would have to see which mutant that's been inducted into this "omega" classification,
has reached the highest potential thus far, then we can gauge by seeing what they've done.

I don't really think there's even a hype around it. We're all pretty aware of how the power level differs from each omega to the other.
At least that's the impression I've gotten, could be wrong.

nah, you're right on. vulcan WAS a bit hyped though in that in his first appearances he was described as being crazy-powerful and he did beat down the xmen without effort.
ec was right though -- omega=potential. nothing more nothing less. if they learn to use their powers effectively, they can become FAR greater in power than non-omegas. how much greater? kinda hard to tell, but perhaps vulcan or darwin will show everyone?
back to topic -- right now, terrax would win the fight. in time, when vulcan masters his powers, he could potentially wreck terrax. and glads as well. WILL he do that someday? who knows . . . be cool if he did though. 🙂

Originally posted by CreshoskBeing greater than one doesn't mean you're greater than all of them.
Originally posted by CreshoskLike Phoenix or MJJ might be more of a problem for Gladiator than Darwin, for example...
I don't consider anything that Phoenix has added to Jean or any other host,
as a constitution to classify one as "omega" ...
remember, the PF is a separate source of power.
Although Jean and Rachel and whoever might be "omegas" anyway without the PF.

Which Omega has reached this stage?
Or which Omega ha neared this stage?
