Description: Can run millions of combat variations through his head before a fight even starts, and has implants that allow him to see the enhancements other people have. Also has slightly enhanced strength/healing/agility/etc. Generally just a supreme badass.
Feats
Walking silently on a metal catwalk mere feet away from the replacement Midnighter, who had similarly enhanced senses.

Seth snaps MN’er neck, and it barely phases him. He plays dead so that he can rescue Jenny later on.

Not a great scene for MN’er, but here it’s revealed that he has a backup heart. The one Seth ripped out was later replaced and healed by Angie and the Doctor.

General ass-whipping

A cool fight where he owns a chick with targeting enhancements implanted within her.

Another sweet fight. Mortally wounds a beast-thing about 3 times in as many panels that had taken Hawksmoor to school earlier H2H.

A fight alongside a Gen-Active girl, where they trash some no-name henchmen with superhuman upgrades.

He actually has his enhancements blocked in this scan (though he later fortified against such an intrusion: see next feat), but the guy fighting him lists off a few of his lesser-known powers.

A mixed feat. Here he informs us that his implants are protected from outside tampering, and Jackson King’s inability to affect them confirms this. King is clever enough to negate his implants another way (which allow him to run his combat scenarios), though my opinion is that it would take a telepath with fairly detailed knowledge of how MN’ers powers work in order to accomplish this feat.

…btw, MN’er still performs well in the fight after this neutering of his implants. The calculations help, but he’s still very deadly without them.
Showing some alternate-dimension bad guys how the Authority rolls…

With his enhancements, he has telescopic vision, enough to find snipers at over a mile away. It’s also useful because this scan shows how actual information can be shared via Angie’s radio-telepathy, not just words (which is all they normally use it for).

Captain Atom saying he's never seen someone without powers move as fast as MN'er (which would include, presumably, Batman):

A speed feat where he punks a superhuman (who had superhuman speed/strength/flight) and takes a hostage away from him before he has any time to react.

Just some head-splattering ownage

An “intellectual” feat. MN’er is beaten, but completely talks a guy out of his entire lifestyle.

Takes a kick from the evil Doctor, which sends him hundreds of feet in the air, and is unharmed.

In the first scan, we see MN’er analyzing a future version of Apollo to make sure it’s him:

…later, we find out it was a trick, but the Apollo impersonator had to alter his person down to his DNA structure in order to fool MN’ers senses. So anything less, and he can detect it.

Catches an arrow shot at him at close range

A minor strength feat, but it’s gory as hell, so it’s not for the faint of heart.

Kills a guy with a nerve strike

This is kind of amusing, as he gets frustrated with Jack because he’s having to run millions of combat scenarios a second for hundreds of opponents.

His outfit absorbs light, making him harder to see in the dark

This is a cool fight with some skilled mercenaries. A fun display of his calculating ability.
