X-Treme X-Men #9 review + spoilers!

This was one of those weird books where I ended up liking a character just because of how they died. I haven't had much exposure to Dazzler before; has it previously been established that she can turn herself to pure energy?

Oh Pixie, one day in the future you'll finally figure out how to have good taste.

One thing that could have made this series a lot cooler was if Dazzler had collected clothing pieces from each world she went to, culminating with her having put together a superhero costume with them by the time she'd returned to the 616. That would have been classic Dazzler all the way. Her getting the boots of altU Ali, would be one of the finishing touches. The story would tie up so much more *tidily* if she emerged from dimension hopping sporting this cobbled together, fashionable Dazzler costume that tells the story of her as a hero- which is the point of the book, anyhow.

She has to be "pushed" to her limit, but yes she's proven to to turn into pure energy in the past. The first time was when the crushing effects of going through a black hole as one of Galactus' herlad's nearly killed her, another was when some hipsters beat her up and noted that her hair looked "washed out". She killed them. or "Lightfire Woman" killed them. It was clearly an homage to Jean's Phoenix, but with different priorities.
