Although handbooks are not canon, it says,
but since the breakout, his current power level and goals are unknown.
"handbooks are not canon?" ... I disagree. Handbooks are 100% valid if they adhere to on panel evidence.
Anyway, the "current power level" during Dark Reign was known:
"I control the molecules of the very world, well, the ones around me"
--------------------------------------------------
So less than global, and it can't be denied.
When taking into account his feats, pathetically far less than global.
Literally, his influence stretched across a Town of 44 people.
--------------------------------------------------
So what were Owen's feats in Dark Reign aside from confronting Sentry:
1) Went to his tiny home town,
and dispersed the molecules of all the residents there (44 people)
the molecules were left right in the town btw.
2) Re-arrange the molecules of a handful of Avengers (he didn't want to kill anyone)
3) Mind-phuk Norman Osborn via brain molecules
--------------------------------------------------
So what were Evil MM's feats:
1) Ripped the essence of a Cube being from another universe away
2) Cosmic speed-blitzing simultaneously with devastating energy blasts plus also
3) Reality warping the most powerful Cube being
4) Battling on all sorts of Planes of Existence
5) Contributing (perhaps mostly) to spacial-temporal restructuring within realities across the infinite Multiverse and beyond!
