Seriously - a good real world jail cell would stop him, let alone getting nasty by doing things like sticking him in a blast furnace, burying him in solid concrete, pouring molten steel around his body and allowing it to set, sending him into space on a rocket and detonating it even (very expensive)... there are lots of ways to stop him.
I think some of you forget this is supposed to be the weakest team that can take over the world. Also, powerful telepaths are....powerful. We're trying to find the weakest team.
What could they do to take over, though? They have to be physically present to kill people, the planet's not going to roll over just because they're offing a lot of people.
"Not die" is not the same as having a chance.
Good one, they're full of knowledge of all kinds of odd things and have even made a massive organization (Planetary) before.
Plus, at least two of 'em are effectively unaging so they have a lot of time to do it with.
Yes, but to take over a planet you honestly need a whole lot of power.

True, but we're not supposed to be just naming whoever we think can do it. We're trying to find, specifically, the weakest. People like Prof. X set a fairly high minimum. Of course, there is always the argument that noone below Charles can do it.
That's a good choice. I'm trying to decide if they'd be weaker than the New Mutant squad.

they stole a lot of crap from other worlds and alternate realities too and I believe they were actually better at engineering tech, but not at finding the esoteric knowledge upon which it was based. the thing is, their reed richard's superpower was reproducing his mind into other people's. anyone who's ever come close to randall dowling, probably is randall dowling. this would be quite the trump card
I am in your algorithm learning all your mannerisms
I'm already level with God
A million words a second and I know your imperfections, baby
I'm the only future you've got
Speak in diatonics, motivation diabolic
I'm like a religion, better locked in a box
Picture perfect image, more powerful every minute, baby
I am everything that you're not
The problem is we never really saw it used enough to know exactly what that means. Does he read their thoughts? Can he flip a switch and have his mind take them over? We just don't know.
