I wasn't aware that Cassandra Nova took advantage of his confidence-related abilities. I was under the impression that Cassandra Nova just straight up mind-raped him, along with the rest of the Imperial Guard and the X-Men.

iirc he's phased through heat vision before too.

Yeah, he phased through Superboy Prime heat vision.

Manjobber wins.

I recall her showing the destruction she caused to the shiar empire, crushing his confidence. dont recall if she was already midnraping him by then

Re-read it. She also had discovered the nature of his confidence-based abilities by mind-raping the Imperial Guard. Needless to say, I don't see how J'onn would have similar access to this information. And that's setting aside other issues like J'onn's telepathy not meeting Cassandra's levels, etc.

I don't know about that. J'onn has some pretty stocked tp feats that easily put him at Xavier level at the very least, when he's not in his jobber mode. From what I have seen of the both of them, they're peers imo.

^ Who's talking about Xavier? We're talking about Cassandra Nova. The Cass who mindraped Xavier while he was exponentially amped by Cerebro. Whether or not I think Xavier's above J'onn is pretty irrelevant.

I was saying that they(Cass and MM) are peers. And I was using Xavier as a measuring stick.

^ You think J'onn is so far above Xavier, that he'd mindrape him while Charles was amplified to the 10th power by Cerebro? Are you kidding me? You can barely make an argument that he's Xavier's equal, much less one that he's exponentially more powerful.

I can make that argument based on J'onn's feats, when he's not being plagued by PIS/CIS. Because they certainly are up the spectrum sufficiently to insinuate that Xavier on his best day would need Cerebro to even begin to compete with J'onn in a tp brawl. Skill-wise, it's up in the air, but range and power go to MM. Hence MM and Casanova are peers imo.

Bullsh1t. I'd battlezone that any day of the week. Xavier combats Phoenixforce hosts, engaged Abstracts like Ego and Galactus (twice), unites and throws planetary population consciousnesses (3x), mindphucks computer intelligences, scanned/communicated across galaxies, and shuts down high heralds like cake. All this is all without Cerebro.

If you thought his best feats came with Cerebro, you're sorely misinformed. And Cassandra completely crapped on Xavier, while he was amped with Cerebro. J'onn would have to stand on a high-chair to kiss Cass' buttcheeks.

I'd like to see scans for the galaxies and Ego(although I can counter that with guys like Mageddon and Dr Destiny) feat. And as long as we're discussing galaxies, MM has scanned a galaxy as well in Heaven's Ladder. As far Galactus goes, the only 2 instances I know of are Secret Wars and the Skrull homeworld's destruction, and in both cases Xavier actually failed to do anything to him. Compare this to J'onn entering the Specte's mind and forcing him into the Astral Plane(JLA#35). On that note I am willing to take you up on your BZ challenge.

From what I have seen, Cerebro gives amplifies his telepathic abilities on a planetary scale, hardly beyond J'onn's capabilities. Skill-wise it can go to Cass, power-wise I am sure it goes to MM. Hence they're peers in my book.

J'onn doesn't have to be cassandra nova's level to mindrape gladiator of all people. J'onn isn't without his high end feats. He has frozen entire JLA with a gesture, thrown spectre+JLA to joker's mind forcibly, mindraped Joker with worloggog, searched entire dimensions and timelines to find flash, thrown every mind on earth in a green martian's mind etc. He's easily at xavier level who's inferior skrull imposter has already mindraped gladiator.

He's also put Shiva down with his TP. Supposedly a god who could have destroyed the universe.

Perusing Xavier's respect thread will show you pretty much all the feats without Cerebro's aid. Most of the links still work.

You're on for the battlezone. Let's not waste time picking judges, we can agree on em afterwards. 5 posts each. You think J'onn is Cass' peer, who humiliated an amped Xavier. Go ahead and prove it.

Sick. A battlezone

otta be interesting....

I have cursorily browsed it a few times before and never found the galactic-scale communication. I presume that you will provide the feat in our BZ.

K. The stips seem reasonable enough to me. You get the opening post. We'll discuss time limits(and time zone differentials) later as well along with the judges. Let's dance. http://www.killermovies.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=577694
