Onslaught is one of the greatest threats the Marvel Universe has ever known. His orgin's a bit of a doozy but goes like this. Xavier gets angry at Magneto and wipes his mind. Magneto's worst thoughts merge with Xavier's darkest emotions, creating the being known as Onslaught. Nate Grey fights Xavier and separates his astral body from his physical one, giving Onslaught complete independence from Xavier.
Onslaught absorbed Franklin Richards in X-Men #55 and Nate Grey in X-Men #56 , so feats after that aren't entirely his own power. There is a reddit RT on Onslaught, but the quality of the images isn't the best.

Onslaught had a lot of on-paper potential to be super OP. Don't get me wrong, he was, but for someone who had the powers of Franklin Richards (who created an entire parallel Universe to save the heroes from Onslaught in the same event) he didn't quite live up to the hype. He was still a good villain and a pretty unique idea.
Thanks for reading!
