He didn't casually do those feats though. Prep was needed to achieved said feat.
I'll say there about even if they casually fought. But with prep, Xavier has the edge.

He later reversed it casually though. That's a ****ing insane feat if you think just how many telepath are there on DC earth. All the prep involved was a blood supply so that he doesn't die from blood loss.
Is it really beyond Chuck's ability? I mean we are talking about one of the most if not the most powerful telepath in Marvel barring any trans and above characters.

Which tells u it was much easier to reverse than to perform the mindwipe. Kind of makes sense no?
Like abhi said: when pressed, Max preformed the former on the fly without any prep:

Granted, it still appeared to take its toll on Max, but he did it rather casually nonetheless.
However, if we are just going by visual depictions of the event(s), then Max initially preforming mind-phuckery on the world certainly *looked* more taxing:

...But like I said, it *seems* like the feats would be fairly equal in terms of the sheer TP powa/control required... Perhaps Max simply became more adept with his TP as time progressed? The feats did take place 20+ issues apart, after all. Dunno. /shrug

I would imagine Max got better as time progressed. The comics seemed to show that, though not explicitly.

Titles are just that, titles.

That's just it. Visual evidence would lead one to believe that it was more complicated to apply that mental block.
Maybe he did progress like you suggested, but what has he done within those 20 issues to really validate that?
Comparing those 2 instances, the latter felt as if it had smaller requirement of power/control.. That's just me.

According to comicvine's debaters, Maxwell is only low or mid level telepath. I seemed to underrate Maxwell.
I think that take his earlier feats to the exclusion of his latter labeling them as PIS. Like I said when you look at the continuity of the character you see a power level that grows over time. The fact that it is substantially higher after a long period of no appearances just falls within that consistency. If he had had appearances with these lower levels closer to his peak appearances than the PIS label could be justified. But he went unseen to the wider audience for years and with just the small growth in his power level over the year or three when he was being seen more often I don't see a problem accepting those peak ones.

Non telepathist with indomitable will like Superman or Hal have resisted uber strong telepathy. But They have been Mindraped by weak telepath. is it PIS or CIS?
