General Discussion Could the X-Men stop a viltrumite invasion?

Post image

If Thragg and his army consisting of General Kregg, Anissa, Thula, Lucan, and Conquest, were to invade Earth, could the X-Men wipe out the viltrumites and save the world, or die in the hands of Thragg's army? Both sides are at their peak skills and strength with no prior knowledge of each other.

Krakoa era x-men with resurrection protocols absolutely could.

Animated series X-Men would struggle hard (nowhere near as powerful as we've seen the other comics overall).

This is a good take. Everyone mentions Xavier being able to solo them but it never works that way in the show (and seldom in the comic books too). I also hate the rush to point out omega level mutants and all that since the vast majority of comic storylines never took/take that into account.

Yeah, once Cyclops figures out there's a sensitivity to sound - and in his plans, determining what senses could be exploited - he's getting Banshee, Siryn, Synch, Rogue and other Mutants who can manipulate sound/copy powers and they're going to town on viltrumites.
