Sage can't control machines. what allows her to interface with computers and machines is her goggles. Tsl3161991 (talk) 01:35, 20 September 2010

Source of confusion

This (rather ridiculous) re-interpretation of Sage's mutant ability started in Grant Morrison's controversial New X-Men run. "Do that thing you do and send an e-mail with your mind, Sage..."
Chris Claremont appeared to try to set the record straight throughout the rest of X-Treme X-Men and into Uncanny X-Men where it was stated that she requires technology (that she creates) to obtain information, just like the rest of us do.
Unfortunately, Claremont also started using the term "Cyberpath" for X-Treme X-Men issues 31 through 46. The term was dropped for the rest of her appearances in comics. Likely he or his editor discovered the term was already understood to mean "control computers", not "think like a computer". Psicraft (talk) 12:03, April 28, 2018 (UTC)

Real Name

I feel I should point out that her entry in Volume 9 of the hardcover Handbooks lists her real name as "unrevealed" (and "Tessa" as an alias). I edited the page to that extent, but felt I should mention it here...in case anyone cares. --GrnMarvl14 01:09, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

How do you feel about moving her to 'Sage (Earth-616)'?

Works for me. Though, honestly, I think what we have now works fine. If you'd prefer the move, then be my guest, but I worry about there being other Sages we'd need to worry about.

Revert power grid

I think it's probably time to revert her power grid? I don't think former powers are relevant.

There's also the matter that she's listed as having Super-Genius Intelligence but the power grid implies that only happened temporarily. Which is it? Psicraft (talk) 14:56, April 24, 2018 (UTC)
