The ultimate entity that has taken on many hosts in the marvel universe. made famous for its role in one of the most momumental Storylines in comics to date The Dark Phoenix Saga. Now this entity known as the phoenix force is an immortal an evolving manifestation of a universal force of life and passion it is the child of the universe. The phoenix is the most fear beings in all of existence period with the power to cut an regrow the universe and completely eradicate it. The phoenix purpose to burn away the obsolete. This force has been described as the spark that gave life to the universe, and the flame that will consume it. Now it gets interesting The phoenix force at a time was a sentient and nameless entity that traveled the cosmos just like other cosmic beings. After saving the magician by the name of Feron who worshipped the legendary phoenix who visions prompted the Phoenix to adopt the firebird form which you still see today. after a battle between Feron an a villian named Necrom who stole a fraction of the phoix forces essence which force it to flee back to space in a type of confused agony. Now the force returned back to earth when it felt the mind of young Jean Grey her mind resonated with the forces energy. Jean had telepathically linked her mind to her dying friend , Annie Richards to keep her soul from moving to the afterlife. But Jeans mind was being dragged to the other side with annie. The phoenix lent its energy to break the connection, and kept a close watch over jean it felt a kin to her. Years later with jean dying on a space shuttle, her mind called out for help the phoenix force answered and transformed jean in to the phoenix. After an encounter with the hellfire club and manipulation by mastermind and the white queen after escaping jean had been transformed into the Dark Phoenix. She fought the xmen and went to the stars, She devoured the energies of the D'bari Star system to satisfy her "hunger" as Dark Phoenix this resulted in the annhilation of five billion inhabitants to that system. After being defeated in psionic combat by Professor Xavier she regained control. After being teleported into space by the alien race the Shi'ar given a trial by cfombat for the D'bari incident. The outcome leads to jean becoming the dark phoenix but seeing how evil and "hungry" the phoenix becomes she commits sucide on earth's moon before the eyes of a horrified cyclops. Later on the rising from the ashes occurs. To Close in terms of Phoenix as a villian her abilities are beyond comprehension her powers drive the host mad an to edge of suicide and rebirth when the phoenix to racheal summers future daughter of scott and jean fought and defeated Galactus just that alone tells us the phoenix can not be matched by the way galactus devours planets and he was made to destroy and got obliterated. The phoenix is a force that can not be stop and never will be... watch for her fire.
