He is also mildly telekinetic, once shown floating off the ground and again when erecting an invisible barrier to deflect heavy rain from himself.

He has used various weaponry, including conventional firearms, rocket-guns, and a "sonic whammer" which projects intense vibratory blasts.

Mentallo is capable of flight via the Fixer's "anti-grav propellant unit" or "flying discs" and has also used a tank that can bore through the ground.

[36][37] Mentallo also has the ability to send out mental probes to identify the shape and size of objects in his near vicinity, effectively acting as a radar-sense.

In the services of A.I.M., Mentallo's abilities were further bolstered through nanotech, able to cast his consciousness between micro-machines and his own body for ranged technopathic effect.
