    I was wondering about a couple of the things we saw Moonstone do during her stint in Ms Marvel.  
    My impression was that, aside from her enhanced physicality, everything she does is based on Gravity manipulation, right? 
    I mean, okay, laser blasts don't quite compute there, but I suppose it's a lot harder to draw a 'gravity pulse blast' than a laser bolt. 
    But, while running around fighting Ms. Marvel, Moonstone does an energy absorbtion stunt a couple of times--once she even shunted energy into Iron Patriot's Batteries, to make him into some sort of super-capacitor bomb. 
    In another scene, she takes down a high-tech armored opponent by triggering some kind of electrical discharge around him--possibly shorting out his powered armor via energy manipulation? 
     
    My question is, are these specific powers actually shown as being canon in any other appearances?  Or was the Ms Marvel writer just going all out to try and blur the lines between her and Moonstone as part of the story he was telling?

    She only had the gravity-based powers when she was in possession of the second moonstone, which she no longer has. Energy manipulation is part of her standard power set from the first moonstone.
