well, I wouldn't say SMA+PMA+M1 were bad candidates for "psy" locations (maybe TK at least), you are probably right about it being folk psychology more than anything real.

In terms of comics, especially in universes that aren't really big on scientific representations anyways, ala: Marvel or DC, a disembodied consciousness almost makes more sense for psy powers. Its an easy enough cop-out and in terms of narrative is way more congruent with how the powers are depicted.

he didn't freeze her brain, just lowered her frontal lobe's temperature enough to thwart her mindrape and give her an ince-cream brainfreeze sensation (because you know, that's how that works). she still mindraped him seconds later. bobby's incompetence is irredeemable.

Didn't he stop attacking her?

Was it stated that she's as powerful, or will become as power once her powers mature?

She is already more powerful than saturn queen and in zero hour scanned entire universe in moments. That's outta chuck's league.

heh, the more impressive fact is that he thawed it without killing her...

The MOST impressive fact is he thawed it without killing himself, we are talking about Iceman here.

*ba dum bum, tsssss*

The sad part is he's my favorite x-man, out of the perennial line up, at least.

ditto 👆

If Ice Man can't be altered, I'd bet Element Lad can encase him in inertron.

Element Lad might actually be the most powerful member.. The guy's a walking plot device, doing things like changing the composition of air to contain lead and defeat a bunch of Daxamites, or create Gold K, and a lead shield for Superboy, on the fly.

No like about it he IS the most powerful member by far, and considering the list included three characters at Superman's level of power across the board that's saying something
