10 Superheroes Who Are Way More Powerful Than You Think

9. Iceman

Punisher vs Hulk
Marvel Comics

As Iceman, Bobby Drake can shoot ice. At first, it seems pretty straight-forward. He may not seem as powerful as Magneto or Professor X but Iceman is classified as an Omega-level Mutant; the highest grade possible. Since Bobby is a founding member of the X-Men, he’s been learning how to use his power longer than almost any other mutant. Because of this, Iceman develops more and more powers over the years.

For example, he can freeze the water in a human body, killing them instantly. He cannot suffer any cold-based illness like hypothermia. Not only does the ice around his body make him resistant to injury but it also makes him immune to most psychic attacks. He can be shattered into a thousand pieces without any lasting damage. If he becomes poisoned, he heals himself by absorbing all the moisture in the air to replace his damaged cells with healthy ones.

Iceman can even make ice sculptures that are sentient and can fight on his behalf. That's right. Iceman has the same powers as Elsa.

Also, in one story, Iceman froze... the entire world. How anyone underestimates a guy who created a global winter is anyone's guess.
