OPEN YOUR MIND, ABSORB WHAT CEREBRO HAS TO OFFER: When Professor X uses Leadership, characters with an Influence token are considered adjacent. When Professor X uses Mind Control, Incapacitate, Penetrating/Psychic Blast, or Outwit, he may target characters with an Influence token regardless of line of fire.
If Professor X gives a friendly character an Influence token, can he then target them with any of the listed attack powers?
