Abilities
[edit]Someone eliminates most of this character's abilities, and some of them highly relevent to the plotline have been restored. This character's ability to heal people is highly relevent as Acolytes have been brought back to life and, even more so, now that Professor X was written to have his head blown apart and restored by Exodus. The character's unsurprising survival after a character (Dust) disintigrated his organs is a clear depiction that he is not merely a telepath, but someone with some kind of superhuman ability to survive. The reader know that this character is a surviver and a powerful threat in future plotlines. And his long-life or immortality is highly relevent because it explains his history with the Apocalypse character centuries ago.
The fact that his telepathy is at least somewhat comparable to Xavier's is not irrelevent, but it is what makes this character more relevent on a wider scale in Marvel's mutant literature. He is written to be a villain poweful enough to challenge Xavier, the most powerful and prominent mutant in the Marvel Universe. To some extent, he has taken magneto's role (and Magneto's ability to stand up to Xavier was also important to the series).
To describe the character as one of the most powerful and very difficult for the heros to defeat even combined, this is not fan-boyism. It is simply relevent to the story lines that Exodus is one of characters who is obstinate, willing to kill, and very difficult to stop. Removing powers so that he appears to be an ordinary-level-threat to the hero characters does not inform, but distorts.
Something strange
[edit]The real name of Exodus is kind of strange in French, Bennet du Paris could be understand in French as the idiot of Paris (benêt de Paris). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.53.50.87 (talk) 21:22, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
New Main Image
[edit]The fact that his image is that crusty John Romita Jr drawing is so wrong, he deserves something better Cordelia Van Allen (talk) 21:45, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
