    In comparison to other heroes; such as Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey, Emma Frost, etc. what power level does Hope potentially posses?

    Power level? We already know she's a host to the Phoenix. I'd say she has the potential to be on the same or a close level to Jean.

    @Edamame:  Bastion did not impress. Legion could have done it. In fact several x-men at max should have been able to crush him if his nimrods were anything to judge by.

    I don't think she's Jean. I'm leaning towards Maddy for the time being.

    What with the recycling of crappy story lines because nobody's original enough to do something on their own?

    yes actually. DC is going through it more than Marvel though in my opinion. Marvel U seems more like it's going through seizures.

    I got the pm version of your discussion :l 
     
    I don't think any relation to Maddie would effect Cyclops' opinion of her, partially BECAUSE HE WOULDN"T KNOW 
     
    And I really don't see Cyclops hating Hope, Hope hated him, but I think they were able to move past it somewhat during the funeral and the anthology book where hegot the medal from steve. At this point he wants to control her because he doesn't want her hurt or killed becaus ethat would mean the end of the mutant race and Cyke, well wouldn't like that :P

    so does she have all the powers of every member of the mutant race including the phoenix force ro does she mimic the mutants around her? From a recent comic against Juggernaut as part of the worthy, they claim she cant use her powers for very long. IT sounded more like she was a mimic rather than just having millions of different abilities. I try to follow but she doesnt seem to be using her TP or TK almost ever any more. 

    Can someone help fill me in on her powers and abilities better than her CV page does?

    @DEGRAAF Hope has telekinetic and telepathy, but yeah she doesn't use them much. But she can copy people's powers. It's like rogue but she doesn't have to touch them and they weaken the further she is from the mutant. And she can copy lots of powers at a time but makes her exhausted like fighting bastion. Hope that helps.

    @DEGRAAF:

    Maybe that helps.

    Hope Summers is an omega level mutan born with the following powers:

    Empathic Power Mimicry

    Empathic Power Mimicry: The limits of this power have yet to be reached or determined. She does not need to physically touch her subjects (as with Rogue), nor does it appear as though her using an individual's powers subtracts at all from their own power level. It appears that Hope needs to be in close proximity to subjects to exhibit their powers,and that powers fade with distance from subject. The powers Hope has demonstrated so far include:

    • Power and Aura Absorption: from Rogue. She touched Rogue and survived without any damage and erased all of the previous memories and abilities Rogue had absorbed, including those of the Hecatomb. She also cured Rogue of the Strain 88 virus.
    • Telekinesis and Telepathy: from Cable. Using telekinesis, she was able to stop a bullet in midair, and she was able to sense Bishop's presence using telepathy. When she was finally reunited with her father, she again mimicked his telekinesis and upon contact with him may have briefly gain precognition.
    • Energy Absorption and Concussive Blasts: from Bishop. Absorbed and rechanneled a concussive blast at Bishop while he was hunting her.
    • Optic Blasts: from Cyclops. Exhibited once when Hope yelled at Cyclops for sending Cable into the future without a way back and again displayed it while battling BastiHope later displayed this power while furious with Evangeline Whedon in Cyclops' presence.
    • Organic Steel Transformation: from Colossus. Used while battling Bastion to punch through his torso.
    • Cryokinesis/Thermokinesis: from Iceman (or possibly Storm). Used while battling Bastion, to create a pillar of ice and temporarily freeze him.
    • Telekinetic creation of biological matter and ferrous material: from Kenji Uedo. Used in Tokyo when trying to save Kenji when his powers first manifest. This is also the first time Hope consciously used her mutant powers.

    PixieTransonicRockslideMagnetoGentleKuurth

    • Pixie Wings: from Pixie. Used while attempting to remove the helmet of Kuurth.
    • Inorganic Rock Form: from Rockslide. Used while attempting to remove the helmet of Kuurth.
    • Magnetic Field Manipulation: from Magneto. Used while attempting to remove the helmet of Kuurth.
    • Organic Diamond Form and Telepathy: from Emma Frost. Used to shield herself from mind control by Sinister, and later to communicated while Emma was trapped in her diamond form while battling the Sinister-controlled Dreaming Celestial.
    • Breathing Fire: from Shou-Lao. Used when fighting Cyclops. This is the first and (so far) only time Hope's been able to mimic the powers of a non-mutant. (although this was more due to her absorbing his power, which is the same as that of Iron Fist)
    • X-Ray Vision: from closet mutant in physics class. Accidentally used while at boarding school.
    • Luck Manipulation: from Domino. Used to find Cable.
    • X-Gene Stabilization: Thus far, all of the post-M-Day mutant activations have been wildly unstable. The only thing the seems to stabilize the new mutants powers is direct contact with Hope.

    Influence: Hope has exhibited some subconscious low level of persuasion or manipulation over the post-M-Day new mutants.
