    Well from what I seen in the comics 616 Mimic always has the powers of the original X-Men. eney powers after that are tempery... So I was wondering if he was stuck with powers of Cyclops, Jean Gray, Ice Man, Beast Professor X and Archangel for the rest of his life.

    Mimic has the standard set of the Original Five X-Men's powers.

    Similar to Rouge when she had Ms Marvel's power, but could absorb other powers as well. When the other's powers wore off Rouge still had Ms Marvels.

    The Mimic can replace any one of the five powers, but if he wants to revert back to the O5's powers he can.

    Back in Marvel Comics Presents # 61 - Thanks to Wolverine's advice, Calvin worked on controlling his powers from over absorbing through medication at a monastery.

    Next appearing in X-Force # 45 - Calvin is in Siberia, keeping distance from Mutants and Super Humans alike. 

    When Onslaught jump-starts the Mimic's powers, causing him to revert to the Original X-Men's powers and in the confusion fights Cable and X-Force.

    By X-Force # 52 - The Mimic is in complete control of his powers and working for Onslaught, until his defeat. 

    Until working for Sludge in X-Force # 60 and # 65.
