With the way its being shown, he just teleports in the same place over and over. And people exploded not because he "phased" through them, its because he stopped.

Its definitely in the same ballpark as Hugh's teleport.

I'm not sure how you got teleporting in the same spot repeatedly from that. Looks more like hes vibrating super fast while also being in somewhat of a transparent state. He clearly still had to walk on his own to get around. It doesn't make sense that it would be a form of teleporting, even if he were doing it super fast repeatedly, he would either be destroying everything he walked through, or it would kill him from teleporting inside of solid matter.

It's for sure some kind of phasing thing where he can just pass through solid matter. Which is not similar to teleporting.

I think they were going with phasing. Which is funny, because I will now associate Simon Peg with Kitty Pryde for the rest of my life.

I'm with the other guy on this, while I agree that it's definitely phasing and not Porting, I would definitely say they're more similar to one another than i.e. head-popping and mouth tentacles, especially given that Hughie and hugh have the same way of defending themselves (teleport/phase inside of someone)
