The first mutant born after M-Day, Hope Summers is believed to either be the mutant messiah or the harbinger of death for humanity. She is an Omega-level power mimic, and possesses a connection to the Phoenix Force.

Well, let me put it this way. Hope Summers was the only mutant in X-Men: Second Coming who was capable of both lashing out and completely obliterating Bastion from existence. I don't even think that Magneto or Legion would have been able to defeat Bastion

@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.

That is interesting. I actually just made a Bastion vs Legion battle thread. Also, why do you think that Legion could defeat Bastion? Which other X-Men could have defeated Bastion?
She has the potential to make me really not care, not one bit.
They really need to be careful with her character, she's been forcefed to us a fair bit and there's been no real impetus for us to care about her character

She could get killed and motivate Scott back a more wholesome state?
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

@TheCrowbar: It happen during there conversation. I don't have it in front of me but I remember Hope asking why he got and he said for saving lives. Bad move buddy. He throws it in the ocean and they seem better at the end of the conversation
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.
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.
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.
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.
