Roast Of The Phoenix

[Citannah17]

alrite i kno there are alot of die hard phoenix/dark phoenix fans and i cant lie i like her too but to be honest and no im not tryna start an angry rant or bashing of the phoenix jus a discussion on how marvel simply made her complicated and unusable without killing her off alrite my thing is why do a retconned on the phoenix entity which was lame and not redo the comics involving her they gave rachel who only had a limited amount of the phoenix force more attention than jean who was actually the phoenix force itself with sum of her within it i mean rachel met death, galactus, and roma even fought nova and did battle with the retconned beyonder who was all powerful while jean simply had a saga fighting the x-men, destorying a sun, and fighting the sh'iar they didnt let ANY cosmics interfered only unnessary cameos with stopping dark phoenix who supposely was going to destory the universe i mean givin it was originally suppose to jus be jean well if thats the case wen they change phoenix as a separate enitity why not do the comics over to involve more cosmics helping hell look at the fantastic four they are always involing GALACTUS in their affairs lets discuss

Phoenix is probably better discussed on the X-Men forum.

Also, punctuation is your friend.

I'll disagree with your point simply because it involves a run-on sentance.

That and the bad spelling makes trying to figure out your point extremely confusing. :(

What's remarkably stupid is that the Phoenix/dark phoenix saga was like the best "power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely" parable and instead it became this monsterous disease that anytime someone touches it just gets more and more convoluted, but much like a penis fanboy writers just can't keep their hands off it

The grammer police need to get a life....not everyone that comes online is from your own country of origin (or above the age of 18 for that matter)...if you don't have anything to contribute to the thread then honestly just keep it to yourself and bugger off...you aren't the moderator and if there was a real problem its thier job, not yours, to point it out.

Back on topic:

I think its laughable that Jean/Phoenix is the "great cosmic power" but she only ever does things on earth and for some reason is only ever a threat to her teammates and not innocent people in the world, but yet her alt. reality daughter gets these cosmic stories....BUT at the same time give her history Rachel is portrayed as having no more talent or power than Hellion in New X-Men.

Just get rid of the burning budgie

thier
It is spelled 'their'.:p

It is less of a dictation to any single poster of some unspoken rule but rather a matter of being practical - myself, I cannot understand the meaning of the original post properly and refrain from guessing because A) it takes effort and B) I'm as likely to guess wrong as right and end up derailing the thread from the original poster's intent.

I agree, the Phoenix should have been clarified and explored in the cosmic sense rather than just in the context of her/their/its relationship to the X-men. I find also that whenever such clarification and exploration has been attempted with Rachel it is simply ignored within the wider Marvel franchise which doesn't really work if she's a universal power ...
