question
Is there a limit to how many times you can use a power-action?
for how long does the mind-control power works?

Well, like all non free actions, you can only use a power action once per turn and you can't take a power action when you've got two tokens. Otherwise, nope, you can use it as often as you want.
Mind control lasts for one action. I use mind control to make a close or ranged combat attack. If it hits, your figure joins my team and I can give him one action (free or not) and then he rejoins your team. Since he becomes friendly to my side and opposing to yours, movement rules change a bit. He doesn't have to break away from my guys but he does have to stop moving when he moves next to one of yours, just like he was one of my normal figures.
I want to point out a few rules things.
The X-Men team ability allows an X-Man to take a power action and heal an adjacent X-Man one click of damage. I then roll one die and if I get a 1-4, the healer takes a click of damage. You'll notice that Cyclops' power allows them to heal 2 clicks as long as he's around.
Cyclops also has a different attack symbol. The crosshairs attack symbol means he's a Sharpshooter. I can shoot through your figures (bank shots for Cyke) and I can make ranged shots against adjacent characters. The logical application of this is even if you get in Cyke's face, he can use range combat expert for +2 damage and he'll ignore Sif and Fandral's +2 defense boost from Combat Reflexes. Also, he can use Running Shot to base an opponent and he'll still be able to shoot.
Also note that Hogun has a slash mark across his defense symbol (shield). This means that he is Indomitable and that he takes no pushing damage.
One final rule that we didn't use last game. Theme PC (probability control). To encourage players to play a "theme" you get bonus rerolls if all of your characters have one of the same keywords. Keywords like X-Men and Asguardian are considered "non generic." Keywords like warrior and scientist are considered "generic." Basically, adjectives are generic. Teams are not.
For every 300 points of generic teams (all soldiers for instance), you get 1 free use of prob control. As a free action, you can reroll any of your dice on your turn or my dice on my turn and give an action token to one member of your team that can see the action in question and is within 10 spaces of it (just like regular probability control). Non generic teams get 2 prob rerolls for each 300 points.
Since both of us have nongeneric theme teams and we're playing at 600 points, we each can reroll the dice four times throughout the game.
Since we aren't face to face, it is generally accepted as good form to provide prob instructions for the other player's turn like "Prob any attack roll that needs more than an 8 to hit" or "Prob any attack on Wolverine" or "Prob any attack that does more than 4 damage" or "I'll save my probs for offense."

so the probs basicaly allow me to retcon a certain action?
like,if you KO Frandal with Beast,i can use a prob to force you into rolling another dice,giving Frandal a chance to keep fighting? Or use one of these probs to attack again if i miss (ie,Sif misses Wolverine)?

I like to think of it as teamwork in action but sure, you could see it as a retcon and yeah it works that way.

Hogun started on a object, which is hindering terrain. His speed value should be halfed.
