10 Most Powerful Swords In Comics History

6. Soulsword

Magik on a good day
Marvel Comics

Many of the swords on this list have a strong connection to a particular wielder and that is especially true in the case of the Soulsword. Magik’s weapon of choice is more than just a tool with magical powers; it’s the very expression of her soul.

Illyana Rasputin forged this blade from her own soul and life force while being trapped in Limbo by the sorcerer Belasco.

Magik used the Soulsword to fight off her captor and as a result, whoever wields this weapon becomes the ruler of Limbo.

Despite being so strongly connected to Illyana, the Soulsword has changed owners several times, most notable among them being the X-Men Nightcrawler and Kitty Pryde. What makes this blade particularly powerful is that with each use it becomes stronger.

When it was eventually returned to Magik, the Soulsword was capable of creating stepping discs in midair and summon an equally powerful mystical armor. It’s also especially effective against magic.
