Except for the pis flaw of the bands that says when needed writer can introduce a source of energy which bands cannot manipulate....

IIRC, he absorbed the Ego infestation on Earth. It took all he had but he managed to finish what Surfer couldn't. If it happened the way I remember -i.e. he reached his limit- it's not the best evidence to support Quasar > Mjolnir in energy absorption. Been a while unfortunately.
Mjolnir.

If I remember correctly it wasn't really energy but bio mass and I have yet to see mjonir absorb pure living matter within.
I think I'd rather pick the QB over Mjonir its user friendly (lOl's) and much more to offer than say energy manipulation.. Ie.. CA, direct link to it's maker, etc. Granted carrying Mjonir would be pretty cool I think.. lol's
I really dont understand what made that particular NB that Genis had so powerful, I mean it's not even the original one but a copied version made by kree science. I'm thinking what really granted him reality warping powers was his vast CA that he genetically acquired but not the NB.. dough I have no proof of that..
IIRC, it was his essence or power. If it was his bio-mass that's a different case. For the record, Mjolnir has been able to draw energy from the ground, the core of a planet and the entire Galaxy.
I'd probably have to give the advantage to mjolnir also.
The original version of mjolnir had time travel powers.
Mjolnir can manipulate souls.
Mjolnir appears to have better teleportation ability.
Mjolnir doesn't have a darkforce/magic weakness.
Mjolnir can create antimatter/antiforce, and matter manipulate.
Mjolnir grants its user better durability by default. (i.e. when not actively trying to block an attack, Thor is STILL very difficult to injure)
Against an enemy who might not be vulnerable to energy attacks, mjolnir has a powerful physical assault.
The Heighten Cosmic Awareness granted Genis-Vell the knowledge to wield the Nega Bands properly. It also helps that Genis insanity, left him morally unhindered.

The way it was explained was that the machine were to separate Ego's mass/presence from the planet and that Surfer/Quasar was to absorbs it within.. Beside Quasar has done this on more than one occasion dough on a less powerful opponents..
Not really.. Mjonir requires expertise to use its more exotic features therefore one needs to be quite familiar with its abilities while the QB has CA (a kin to a manual) and also its programmable features, like i say more of a user friendly..
I was referring to the bit about being more than an energy absorption tool. For the record, if you're from the House of Odin, using Mjolnir is instinctive.
having the QBs doesnt automatically grant CA; it has to be bestowed upon ya, and theres also the "test" that most ppl have to pass in order to wield'em (failing said test kills the testee btw )
personally I would rather have them over Mjolnir however, since I dont have to move my arms to use'em.
