===Abilities===
*Master Combatant: Through years of extensive training as an X-Men, countless battles in his superhero career and adventures, Mimic was an incredible fighter as he could fight, hold his own, and even defeat the toughest and deadliest beings that the multiverse had to offer. His fighting style utilizes his copied powers in combination with each other with expert mastery as he used Colossus's Organic Steel Transformation to enhance the effectiveness of Wolverine's bone claws, and etc.
===Weakness===
*Limited Range: While Mimic could copy any superhuman abilities within seconds of being near the host; however, if they traveled far enough their powers were instantly lost unless he had spent one hour close to them in which case he kept their abilities.
*Limited Power Set: When Mimic took on an other's powers he would lose one of the five he already had but he was able to select which abilities he would lose. Also the powers he copied were only half as powerful as the source of them like If he copied Wolverine's healing factor, it would only be half as potent.
*Gamma Radiation Overload: One negative aspect to Mimic's abilities was that if he was in the proximity of a mutate whose powers derived from or utilize gamma rays, like the Hulk, he became vulnerable to those gamma rays making him violently ill and could have led to death if he remained near the being for an extended period of time although he was still able to mimic their abilities.
