Originally, Sunspot metabolized the sunlight he absorbed, charging his muscles to increase in strength, endurance, and resilience. His body was cloaked in darkness because he drained all the ambient light from his skin. Doctor Joshua of the Damocles Foundation altered Bobby's powers in X-Force (1st series) #13-15, allowing him to direct his bio-energy as concussive force, and later as thrust for flight as well. Sunspot's time as a slave of Reignfire(from sometime before X-Force Annual #3 until X-Force (1st series) #43) and his resultant mind-merge with Cable altered his powers again. Instead of metabolizing the solar power, he now rechannels it as different forms of heat and infrared radiation. He is also capable now of absorbing other forms of heat and light besides solar power.
