I just watched Star Wars Rise of Skywalker, not going to spoil anything. Watching the film made me think of the concepts of over powered mutants. I know X-Men already has levels like omega mutants and the basic human mutants. but are there any xmen character that you think is over powered or has ever been over powered at one point.
Jean Grey
Wolverine
Rogue
Hope Summers
Nate Grey
Legion
These are some of the mutants who at some point I think have been over powered. These doesn't obviously take away any interesting aspect of their characters or make their stories bad, however it could be a lot to absorb, why they are just so darm powerful.
I would say though that what I still like about some of these characters is, they have some tragic flaws because they are over powered. Legion is insane, Rogue can never touch anyone, Jean always dies, Wolverine realistically could live forever and see his beloved friends die. so x-men is balanced.
