Quasar ftw!

Yeah, Quasar is immune to mind-phuckery thanks to the Q-bands.
Depends on if the writer remembers Quasar has the TP jammer.
He didn't seem to have it at all in Starmasters when Tana Nile searched through his mind like a rolodex.
Yet later in Avengers Infinity, it's specifically mentioned and Moondragon was helpless against it.

Villain. Funny thing is, that villain was revealed to be Overmind. A guy that was actually BEATING the Stranger in a TP fight till he got distracted by a group of Watchers!Quasar ftw!
Thanks. If Stranger deserves his place in the cosmic hierarchy, then that was indeed helluva feat.

A friend of mine told me it still is. I've only got it second hand so I don't know details or can show. I did see a scan of him bringing some in, but don't know the issue.

Cosmo has easily mind phucked a wearer of the quantum bands before, so they aren't totally mind attack proof.

It really just depends on which writers check up on the characters history. I think Avengers Infinity was written by Roger Stern who probably is the sort to do his homework, unlike current writers. But I was surprised to see the mindblock reference outside of a Quasar issue.
He had also been impervious to Moondragon's control attempts in his own comic. Also he was immune to Overmind who was controlling large numbers of beings on the Stranger's world (seemed to include even guys like Alpha and Futurist) and was busting the Stranger's brain telepathically.
Regarding the Phyla incident, the mindblock thing is not a default behaviour of the bands - the wearer has to set it up. So either Phyla didn't or the writer forgot again.
i tend to agree that the annihilators would probably take the most wins, but no one is sweeping that is for certain. 👆
and you're right about the q-bands--if taken off guard even wendell could be affected by tp or psychic blasts:

given how far away some of the annihilators were, that is a pretty crazy feat. cosmo is rockink! 👆
