Yeah I thought about that. The only thing that puts me off about comics is that they make up the most random stuff in order for their characters to actually be feasible.

Also, I has no idea that Cyclops got his powers from another dimension. Also also, mutations do not work that way. Talk about reality messing things up...
Well the exact explanation was something like that his body absorbed energy from the sun that in turn actived special apertures in his eyes that diverted energy from another universe/dimension . It never sat right with me so I generally ignored it, but basically every energy creating hero has the other dimension as energy excuse in the marvel universe.

Sorry to be a drag, but her powers don't work that way, while she might be able to copy something physical like claws or wings, she can't copy powers like telekinesis for example.
still, this meants i can have wolverine WITH adamantium bones.
But, no healing factor which means the holes in your hands would bleed out and youd die

I'm way too tired, I should go to be. But using the film as reference, didn't she both A. have her claws broken and B. got stabbed by wolverine. This would indicate that she didn't have real adamantium or a healing factor.

But hey I did remember that Ultimate Wolverine's son Jimmy Hudson, had naturally occurring adamantium on his bones, that's got to count for something...

EDIT: A question for someone who knows more about Wolverine- has he had his head cut off? If so, does it just grow back? It would seem like him losing his head would be rather hard to fix, unless he reaches up and puts it back on, or pulls some kinda Cell regrowth by being able to reform as long as one cell of him exists. But since decapitaion removes the blood and oxygen supply to the brain, which is needed to actually be alive, would his regenration simply stop?
In Old Man Logan [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Man_Logan], he got his head cut off by a train and lived. Might have to do with his joints being reinforced by adamantium, I dunno.

If I had to pick, it'd be Vulcan [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulcan_(Marvel_Comics)]. Y'know how Havoc has Cyclops' powers, only he can use them properly? Well Vulcan's like that, but on crack. It might've been a stupid move, but Vulcan was described as having beyond omega level powers; to put that in perspective, that makes him (ideally) stronger than Magneto, Elixr, Storm, Apocalypse, Phoenix, Cable, Legion and Nate Gray. For those who don't know, Legion was the crazy son of Professor X who went back in time and killed Magneto, and Nate Gray was the Cable of the resulting universe, only without the TO virus to hold him back, making him 3-10 times as powerful. The only mutants he most certainly isn't more powerful than are Franklin Richards and Mad Jim Jaspers; both of them are reality warpers though, the latter of which was so powerful he was ripping apart reality. Like Darkeseid, only he knew he was doing it.

Why? He's like friggin' Goku. No, really.

Apologies Abound.

the only reason her claws broke was because the only thing that can break adamantium is adamantium and wolverines claws are adamantium.

Magneto. Hands down.
If that doesn't count then the guy who shoots fire out his hands.
(yes I do know he doesn't actually shoot it out his hands. but shut up.)
yes. it reminds me of the scene in the second xmen movie where he rips the trace ammounts of metal from somedudes body and (i think) makes a bridge out of it. i would do tthat to sooooo many people.

i would die from cuts between my finders? do you know about the human anatomy? sure, they would bleed, but it wouldnt kill me. mistique got stabbed in the stomach in the film and survived that; not to mention SHE HAD CLAWS IN THE FILM. i know, the films arent that accurate but hey, they are made by marvel.

But that only worked because Mystique injected the guard with extra metal

There's not even a point in answering now, given how many people have posted.
But anyway, Apocalypse.

If you could still use the claws the muscles in your hand would be ripped to shreds. Contant use of the claws would mean your now useless hands wouldnever heal and thus never stop bleeding (and the blood loss would be faster then your body could compensate for). And I have a degree in human biology so that's how i know.

But they broke very easily and adamantium is a very rare material, which I don't think she can magically turn into. I think it's more likely she managed to make some sort of techno organic metal that while very strong wasn't stronger than adamantium. Her power is to look like someone not necessarily become them. But yeah...this has been the more geeky discussions I've had in a while.

I think in the film she wasn't copying the mechanism of the claws, rather just projecting a set of claws over the top of her fist with, her power she makes a disguise not a perfect copy. This would also explain why she broke so easily, like a cheap kitchen knife the blades didn't extend completely back into the arm. This would also explain why she wasn't bleeding from the fists, though one would think with shape shifting powers would come greater control over your body's healing (though not healing factor level).

Deadpool's power (he's not technically an X-men(well he was temporarily) but he has mutant powers). He has damn near indestructible healing powers and the power to break the fourth wall. How can you NOT want the power to break the fourth wall?

Now I feel silly for wanting Quicksilver's. Superspeed, I mean, come on. Even if we aren't dealing in Speed Force levels, Mach 5 is more than enough. There are a lot of ones coming in right behind that, but super speed has always been at the top of my list.

It's not silly, Ultimate's 2 made me want super-speed bad, quicksilver does a lot of cool stuff in the space of time it takes someone to blink.

Love how people keep saying Deadpool when he's not even a mutant. Even this months Game Informer said he's a mutant when talking about him in Marvel Vs Capcom 3...He's NOT a mutant, people, never was, never will be. His healing factor is derived from Wolverine's but it doesn't make him a mutant. If anything he's "super human." And he was never, even temporarily part of the X-Men, they just said "ok" to shut him up because he would have done what he wanted anyway. The closest he came to being an X-Man was recently in his own ongoing comic where he joined on a "trial basis" to prove he was worthy of it, and he actually took a huge hit in his own name to clear come flack off the X-Men, then he left San Fran for New York to take on Hit-Monkey...

As I said in an earlier post, however, X-Man he is not, but he is THE MAN as far as I'm concerned...

If we're able to choose villians then I'd like Apocalypse's powers. Not to mention he's near immortal.

If its an X-man specific, hmmm...I'd probably say Forge because I like to create. Also, I will never pick Wolverine because I hate him with a passion. If we can't pick villians, but can pick someone in the Marvel universe that's a hero, I'd totally go with Dr. Strange > all. Being the sorcerer supreme rocks @$$.

Also, when did Wolvy get super strength? I haven't read Wolverine comics in ages but last I knew, he had regeneration, agility, and heightenend senses. The skeleton was an add-on. As for super strength I never remember that being part of his powers, unless it was added after I stopped reading. Seems like they keep adding stuff to him though, which is lame.

I actually feel the same way about the ultra super powered mutants with like 8k powers and DC giving Superman every power in the book.
