Who can absorb the most with least reprocussions?

Captain Atom can absorbed any amount of energy, but he skips through time relative to that, which is a pretty big reprocussion.

Winter (from Storm Watch) can absorb plenty, including the SUN, but his isn't very efficent and destroyed his body.

Bishop can absorb quite a bit, but if he does too much, he explodes which is pretty bad.

Silver Surfer can absorb loads, but when he does too much it all just spills out in gaint beams, which is also pretty bad.

Anyone else?

Rogue and Absorbing man.

Private Pion
Can Rogue absorb energy?

Oh, yeah forgot about Absorbingman. Does he get knocked out if he tries to take to much energy? That happens to him when he tries to absorb the Hulk's gamma radiation.

Add Superman Blue to that list.

His absorbing feats are insane.

Private Pion
Damn, how could I forget Superman Blue?

Oh, and I just remembered Parasite. He could absorb plenty, but he get more obessed with the energy the more he took.

Whittdawg92
of course stupid-man has to be the best at everything b/c he can't let anyone have a moment to shine.

Sebastian Shaw's absorbing powers are pretty cool.

Really? What sort of limits he got?

Shaw just absorbs kinetic energy.

but supes blue and absorbing man i dont think they have limits

ExodusCloak
What about Dark Phoenix and Vulcan?

Whittdawg92
They don't need to absorb power, they already have it.

Takion
LP's sig say it all.

"Absorbing man would make a great tampon".

Any questions?

Just talking raw energy Thor(Mjolnir) has some insane absorbtion feats.

Whittdawg92
isn't that technically the hammer, and not the user itself? if someone else is "worthy", they could use it for the same effect.

Validus
Green Lantern's can absorb all different kinds of energy. Singularities, cosmic energy, life forces, etc.

MJOILNIR
Technically it is the hammer but someones has to be able to handle the hammer and now how to use its power. Very few individuals are worthy and even less would know how to do it, espically redirecting it in ways Thor has. Like making a living sun from a dead star. Yes it comes down to mjolnir though.

GL's is the cooleset.

Just curious. When has Bishop ever been shown to have some sort of punishable limit to his energy absorbing? I've never once read anything about him possibly exploding if he absorbs too much. If I'm wrong, that's cool, I've just never heard it before.

Hasn't Esme overloaded him with Psionic Energy? In Murder of the Mansion?

I don't know that much about Bishop, but I've read a few things with him. One of the most memorable moments of that was when he grabbed ahold of Rogue when she had the whole metamorph all powers at once thing, and he tried to absorbed her power. He charged up in his own words 'to my limits!' and got burnt.

The new GL rings do have limits though; Kyle's ring once almost exploded when he tried to absorb a lot.

MJOILNIR
Ive always thought absorbing man was kinda cool. He could have been a great villian.

ThePittman
Frostbite from DV8 was pretty cool and could absorb quite a bit but would then have to release it right away in a consternated blast.

The limits depend on the willpower. Being overloaded doesn't happen much at all.

Absorbing Man takes this no expression

With energy, I say Silver Surfer

With water or whatnot, Iceman (obviously)

With fire, Human Torch

With life, Galactus stick out tongue

ThePittman
With over all I would have to say Rogue or Parasite just because they could have any or all of the others powers and do the same feats.

You all seem to have forgotten Quasar.... energy absorbtion is the guys schtick, he has unlimited storage capacity when absorbing energy

When dishing out some of his energy he totally overloaded the Absorbing Man to the point of implosion:

The only thing he has a problem with is magic:

Thor is right up there with him though, and magic doesn't faze him:

Never did like Quasar but that was pretty cool.

Private Pion
Quasar is pretty impressive; The infinte absorbtion matches Cap Atom, but not being able to handle magic makes about half the forces able to beat him.

Sauron is one. I don't think he has a limit to the power he can take in.

Whats his most impressive feat? I THINK it was him causing a plane to lose power.
