    Is it immune to telepathy? I know it prevented Jean Grey's telekinesis from working.

    totally
     
    also,her shields are powerfull enought to open a hole in a Celestial's armour (Nobody haves scan)
    she also held a atomic-bomb (or something like that) long enought to Thor redirect it to the space 
    and to think i used to believe she was the weakest member of the Fantastic Four,when she actualy could solo Ben,Jonnhy and Reed at the same time

    I also have a question about the Invisible Woman force field. If she can turn invisible things visible, can she make her force field visible? It would make those things much easier to climb or run on if she and others can see them!

    I remember during Maximum Security Moonstone phased through Sue's force fields but she was being over powered by the Kree stone that gives her her powers. Captain Marvel/Photon/Pulsar could turn into light and pass through theoretically but she'd have to turn into something else to hurt her.

    I don't become visible. If you hit them with an energy blast, the blast my form around the shield so you could effectively see it. But if you just punched it, it would remain invisible.

    So there seems to be confusion on exactly what is and wat is not.  Physical, concussive, and energy attacks cant.  But I really would like solid proof of telepathy not working.  Honestly I dont know how a force field can block that.

    It blocked telekinesis, I don't see why it couldn't block telepathy.

    The only way to get through Sue's force field is to almost kill her....that's typically the case.

    Seven months too late, but I can tell you that it's writer error. Mostly likely on the writer during the Emma Frost story arc since based on Sue's other feats, it's well in the her range to block telepathy.

    @all4storm:  was susan with a force field around her head? no! she did a force field around wolverine, and he was also affected, cause when emma used the telepathic blast, susan lost her focus, so the force field disappeared, making his mind also vunerable.

    an susan's force field are able to cut almost everything, she can create very sharp discs, and move them the speed she wants, I doubt if she's concentrating to keep moving it would stop, no matter how hard is the object or whatever.

    I really do think that that should explore a different mental abilities of the invisible woman branching from her psionic force to telekinesis or even telepathy

    I'm really confused about IW at the moment. Can you see her forcefields or not? In all the recent comics they seem to glow blue. Is that just so we know they're there or is that what they look like?

    I know the question above is old, but yes they are invisible. They are usually drawn blue for the readers benefit and to make sure we know they are constructs, not telekinesis. She can also see her own force fields, as she can anything that is invisible.

    Just adding these feats to show what her force field can do:

    Block Molecule Man's  manipulation
    Block Molecule Man's manipulation
    Contain a gamma bomb
    Contain a gamma bomb
    Block someone who phases through things
    Block someone who phases through things

    Can block sound with the right thickness
    Can block sound with the right thickness

    There is loads more she can do with them as they are only limited by her imagination.

    I doubt anyone will answer, but there are 4 things that are pretty inconsistent or we don't know if she can block:

    Telepathy - She's blocked telepaths like Jean and Psi Lord, but there are a couple of times when it has been able to get through.

    Magic - It had no effect against Mephisto like it wasn't even there, but yet i managed to block his son Blackheart

    Phasing - She's blocked Red Ghost, but Vision got through one time

    Teleportation - She's never come up against this power

    I really want to know if she can block these things or not. Maybe she has to slightly change up her force-field to block a certain power, like she has to with sound.

    She's managed to block all of these (except teleportation which she's never faced) at least once.
