Why isn't Xavier an Omega-level mutant? His power rivals that of Magneto and he's an Omega. Flamemonkey7 19:40, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Mostly because the vast majority of mutants have never been actually referenced as being "alpha", "beta", "omega", etc and there's no clear scale to go on.

HoM Edit

Xavier lost hid power after House of M, so how did he get it back?

He touched the M'Kraan Crystal, and it somehow restored his powers.

He was actually sucked into the M'Kraan Crystal. Vulcan was trying to kill him by throwing him at it, but it sucked him inside and Darwin jumped in to save him. When he emerged, he said that his power was stronger than it ever was.

Is it possible, as a community, to find a recent pic of the Prof that we can all agree on?

• Lol, cerainly seems to be some confusion. For his 616-incarnation, only the two comics references would be relevant. That would make it exactly as you summaried in the article. The X3 reference would be relevant top his movie universe incarnation, however.--edkaufman (talk) 13:38, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

Misinformation Edit

I've read, from this website and on many occasions in the past, that Professor Xavier was an Alpha-level mutant. Not once was it said that he is of the Omega level. When did this sudden change occur and where is the proof? Darklighter88 17:19, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

he isn't. He's been called an mega-class telepath, however we don't know if that's the same thing or just another classification for his telepathy. The reference is on the page. But he's never been called an omega-level mutant in the comics.-edkaufman (talk) 11:02, April 20, 2012 (UTC)
