Many times their power to channel electromagnetic energy is referred to as a muscle that they flex. I have an in universe theory for Lorna's power increase that we didn't see in Dark Seduction after she came back from Genosha. She spent weeks to months with her powers channeling the memories of the dead mutants. It helped to get rid of some of the fears and barriers she had to using her powers as she was textually said to always be holding back and was certainly holding back in that fight. It also exercised her muscles so to speak. That is the best in universe rational I can come up with for her power leap we never really saw on Genosha, but saw after.

@koays:

The best that can be said for Dark Seduction was her heart wasn't in that battle. It was still the era when they writing her as every other thought being her boyfriend. She had a massive power and skill level increase since then. Lorna four years later was significantly more a beast, but more importantly much more focused a fighter. To answer the question its a crap shoot. A battle they were both committed to would tear apart NYC and perhaps many other places.

@koays:

I tend to look at it this way which helps explaining some fans very low opinion of Lorna's abilities rooted heavily in old depictions where Claremont and even 90s writers like Mackie jobbed her to Sabertooth. That was untrained and undisciplined Lorna. A rank novice with a lot of power and didn't know what to do with it.

Modern Lorna put in significant training on her own and with Magneto and knows a legion of tricks and uses her power in similar and different ways which as you put it can be just as ruthless as him when needed. If this was 80s or 90s Lorna vs Psylocke the majority of times Lorna loses. Post Genosha Lorna possessing the tricks necessary to protect her mind stomps.

Ultimate Polaris isn't the 616 version. The 616 version's training and experience is vastly more significant and trained by Magneto. Ultimate Polaris loses. 616 Polaris stomps.

@rr79:

There are reasons why I said wait that should start to be apparent.

I will wait until after January 15th to answer that question, but right now this for The Gifted Lorna is more like pre-Awakened potential Magneto in terms of range and ability, but that might change.

No ep this week, but one next week. Esme and her sisters cometh.

@stormphoenix:

Her hair is turning green over time as confirmed by the actress in interviews and the cast.

I doubt she is time displaced though no idea as yet where she actually is.
