    it's debatable.... I know he can only copy 5 powers at a time... So he could never fully be superman, vecuase that guy has an infinite number of powers. And, he can only do it to 50% efficiency. he copies someone who can lift 100 tons, he can only lift 50

    It's not five powers, it's five powersets. Just look at his most common mimicked powerset.

    Wolverine: Enhanced senses, bone claws, healing factor
    Colossus: Enhanced strength, durability, stamina, steel form
    Cyclops: Optic Blast
    Beast: Enhanced dexterity, agility, balance, coordination
    Northstar: Flight, super speed

    He can mimic non-mutants, and if he mimicked Superman, WW or Flash he would get all their powers at half capacity.

    Yeah.

    Also, the time when he mimicked Hulk was similar to when 616-Mimic did the same. It happened involuntarily by just being in his close vicinity, and he got gamma-radiation poisoning by it. So there might be other cases where he is able to mimic the powers, but not be able to keep them for one reason or another.

    What are you talking about?
    Exiles Mimic mimiced a brood in the arc where Sunfire died. He actually was pregnant with a Brood and involuntarily mimicked it too.
    He mimicked Deadpool in the arc before World Tour when he had been beaten up badly by Hyperion and was dying.
    And the Hulk thing was in the beginning. Exiles 5 maybe?

    I don't think he mimiced the brood. I think the brood was just taking over his body and His wolverine healing factor made it take longer to take over. The only thing the brood did to Mimic, was increased the amount of powers he could keep.

    Heres a good one what if Exiles Mimic copied the powers of 616 Mimic. Ok let me make it more clear 616 Mimic can copy more then five at one time so if Exiles Mimic copys that then dose that mean Exiles Mimic gets Extra slots so he can copy more powers. OK if 616 Mimic can copy 10 then that should mean Exiles Mimic can get a extra 5 and after that he can copy up to 9 more.

    It won't work.
    Mimic can't copy powers if he already has a power that's too similar. He tried to copy Sabretooth's powers once when he already had Wolverine's, and it didn't work.
    So he wouldn't be able to copy his own counterparts powers since they are too similar to his own.

    Thats right he cant do it because of the powers are similar man I cant beleve I forgot that. Ok im tring to find away to get mimic to copy more power set so that way he can copy more then 5. I know theres a way and I will find it so eneybody got some ideas?

    Ok I got a good one check this out. As you know Mimic can only copy 5 power sets at one time. So what if he copied Madrox that means Mimic can make at lest 25 duplacates of himself. Now all of the duplacates have the same Mimic power the real one has and every Mimic duplacate copied 4 power set of different mutants. so then the real Mimic pulled all of the duplacates back into himself then all of the power sets the duplacates copied are his. is that even possible?

    Real Mimic - Madrox, Deadpool, X-Man, Beast, Cyclops + Duplacate Mimic - Jean Gray, Vulcan, Colossus, Wolverine, Madrox = Real Mimic - Madrox, Deadpool, X-Man, Beast, Cyclops, Jean Gary, Vulcan, Colossus And Wolverine. Now thats just 2 but I think you get the idea.

    Yes thats cool but if you want to make Mimic a powerhouse then what you shoud do is replace Wolverine with Agent X and Colossus with Franklin Richerds. That would make Mimic way more powerful.

    He will get 50% of the more powerful one.
    Compare to when he absorbed Deadpool's healing factor. It overwrote Wolverine's healing factor since it's more powerful.

    1) I thot if he copied both then the strangth would get put together half of 20 is 10 and half of 30 is 15 so that would make 25 tons and I thot Wolverine's healing powers combined with Deadpool's making him heal faster.

    2) The resion I made 2 power topics is because your only alowed to make 2 posts in a row so ones the topic was older nobody ever anserd it so I made a new one.

    It would be interesting, with half of Flash's speed, half of Superman's speed, and half of Wonder Woman's speed, he should almost be as fast as Flash.

    Or with half of Superman's strength and half of Wonder Woman's strength, he should be almost as strong as Superman.

    What other Leaguer's powers should he have? Captain Atom? His energy powers combined with Superman's heat vision will make up then differences in power. Not only that, but Captain Atom's energy absorption and manipulation should negate Superman's weakness to kryptonite and red solar energy. Captain Atom's added strength should also push him closer to Superman's level, if not exceed him.

    Who should be the 5th one? Martian Manhunter? Might be overkill now. Unless, we go with Superman, Flash, Martian Manhunter, Captain Atom, and...?
