Angel - winged flight
Arclight - generate seismic energies that cause shockwaves and earth tremors
Beast - enhanced strength, incredible agility, prehensile feet
Callisto - superhuman speed & agility, sense presence of other mutants

Iceman - change temperatures to subzero degrees and use the moisture in the air to create ice
Jean Grey - telekinesis, telepathy
Juggernaut - strong, fast and once he gains momentum, no force can stop him
Kitty Pryde - phase through objects
Lady Deathstrik - healing factor, talons in her fingernails
Leech - neutralizes the powers of nearby mutants
Madrox - self duplicity
Magneto - metal control
Mystique - shape shifter, mimic any human form
Nightcrawler - enhanced agility, nightvision, teleportation, prehensile tail
Professor X - the world's most powerful telepath
Psylocke - ability to teleport through shadows
Pyro - fire manipulation
Quicksilver - super speed
Quill - porcupine-like spines which he can extend or retract at will
Rogue - absorb powers and memory through skin contact
Sabretooth - claws and fangs that can rend bone, heightened senses

Think I'd take the prehensile tongue could be a hit with the ladies

Teleportation would be well handy.

yeh but then I'd just change myself into Angelina Jolie and get myself a big pack of batteries ;)

I would go for Professor X - " i have the stone cold nuts you must fold!!!!"
                                       "You should give me all your chips and just walk away from the table"
                                       "I am by far the most attractive male you have ever seen and you must have me now"
                                        "it was the biggest you have ever seen and it wasn't really 47seconds it lasted hours"
etc etc etc

Professor X - the world's most powerful telepath .

Reading peoples minds would be excellent.  I would settle for being a Derren Brown Jedi style mind reader though, he obviously isn't a mutant, but he is the closest thing we have to one

the worlds most powerful telepath wouldn't be able to just read minds he would also be able to manipulate them- much more fun sark

Some form of telepathy would be great, it would come in so useful I think I'd have to go with that.  Other than that, I'd like to be able to self heal and freeze/go back in time.  Hiro from Heroes powers would suit me fine I think.

To be honest, the most powerful mutant from the Marvel universe is Cable, He has the Telepathy skills of Prof X, Telekinetics of Jean Grey, and a load of other fantastic powers.

Cable is a mutant whose physical attributes have been enhanced to superhuman levels. His principal mutant powers are his vast telepathic and telekinetic abilities. He can employ the latter to levitate objects and to create protective force shields. He must continually employ his telekinetic powers to prevent the techno-organic virus from affecting the rest of his body. His techno-organic left arm and shoulder possess even greater strength than his entirely organic ones. Cable's techno-organic right eye can see into the infrared portion of the spectrum.

I'd take his powers anyday

Not particularly taken with any of those.  If I could choose my own, it would be invisibility.

Mystique does that - although she only shape changes into other people that she's already met.

So...

anyone in particular?

Cilla Black's got nice teeth.

Quill - porcupine-like spines which he can extend or retract at will
Has to be the crappiest superpower ever.


I'm surprised that after watching Xmen 3 this qustion was the first think you thought of. The first thing I thought of was 'Well, there's 90 minutes of my life I'm not getting back anytime soon'.


Oh, for the record I'd go with the wings.

before I get too ingrained in the pervert camp, in my defence I was thinking of invisibility more from the nosey parker point of view - sitting in on high level political meetings etc.....honest gov
