You guys think that alog with the Phoenix, Hickman will bring the Shiar back into the X-fold.
Le Suck it, Dolphin!
-God I am so tired.
SCOTT SUMMERS AND EMMA FROST DESERVED BETTER.
F the Phoenix. If he wants to pick something from t g e past Count Nefaria and Thunderbird
With Aaron the Phoenix has joined so many people so stupidly that it is beginning to look like Cosmic Venom.
But who would be the host? To date it’s been (616 Only)
-Whoever Lady Phoenix was before she gained its power (Stone Age Avengers, or is it The Phoenix Force as a Human?)
-Rookshiar (first Shi’ar Host.....bloodline practically extinct, a pattern the Shi’ar like )
-First Modern Phoenix (When it thought it was Jean, atomized)
-Madelyn Pryor (Animated by Phoenix Force after comatose Jean rejected it)
-Rachel Summers (One True Phoenix, has the control, never went Dark)
-Jean (first she took the Codename, then the Costume, starting gaining the powers before being killed.....came back in Endsong, Phoenix Resurrection, told Phoenix Force to let her go)
-Quentin Quire (Kid Omega, Gained a fraction of it in Endsong, shown to be a host in possible future)
-Cyclops (first had it for a few seconds at the end of the Non Cannon Titans/ X-Men Crossover to defeat Darkseid, was part of the Phoenix Five, Went Dark Phoenix)
-Emma Frost
-Colossus
-Namor
-Magik
-Hope Summers
Phoenix Force not seen since Phoenix Resurrection, so it could pop up in Hickman’s Run......hopefully the Death Commandoes don’t follow.....unless they want a throw down with a justifiably pissed off Jean, Rachel, Cyclops, Wolverine, Havok, Warpath.....
Hard to say, since it depends on where Hickman stands about the Phoenix. Does he like the stuff people added to it after Claremont? Or is he of the opinion the concept of the Phoenix Force should never have existed and been Jean all along?
His focus for now doesn't seem to be retconning stuff, I think. The thing with Moira and whatever he's writing in Powers of X doesn't seem to be the "everything you thought about this thing was wrong" every writer goes with; I think his approach will most likely be "see, all this stuff you know/like? Some parts of it are linked to this thing I'm introducing, but it's still the same thing, just with parts added". So, if he picks the Phoenix, I don't think he'll change the PF fundamentally, but if he does use it, I just think he'll try to make the disparities between portrayals smoothier instead of burning everything down.
Naturally, I'm against the PF being used ever again on X-Men and just let Aaron wank his pets with it for eternity. It would hardly add anything at this point.
God decades of classic stories and people still want that tired ass Phoenix story. Make like a mutant and evolve already.
Please, let's not have yet another (bad, non-contributing) Phoenix story.
I prefer something new but it is a cosmic adventure is hard to leave Phoenix out.
Jean just gave up the Phoenix a short time ago and do not want to see her involved with this anytime soon. On the other hand it would be interesting to see the concept of the entity returning more to the side of life rather than something evil and destructive.
