10 Twisted Comic Book Telepaths You Don't Want Inside Your Head

9.Mister Sinister (Marvel)

First Appearance: Uncanny X-Men #221 Mister Sinister is extremely dangerous on a number of levels. Not only is he a powerful telepath and telekinetic, he also possesses superhuman strength and durability, a Wolverine-esque regenerative healing factor and the ability to manipulate matter at a molecular level. He's also a decent hand-to-hand fighter and would be perfectly capable of handling himself in a fight without his more esoteric abilities. An outright villain, he is a very manipulative individual who has carried out a number of ambitious and incredibly well-thought out (and long, drawn-out) schemes. For example, he created Madelyne Pryor as a clone of Jean Grey with the intention of her mating with Cyclops to create an offspring powerful enough to destroy Apocalypse (that offspring turned out to be Nathan Grey AKA X-Man). It was also revealed that Sinister had manipulated the entire life of Cyclops from the point of his birth in order to ensure his plans went as he intended. A man with this level of intricate manipulative ability is not the kind of man you want inside your head.
