Description
A Pint! The Phoenix Force... is complicated. In short it comes from the 'force of life'. It is a nexus of all psionic energy in the omniverse. The Phoenix is among the most feared beings in the entire universe - having the power to cut and regrow any part of the universe as well as destroy it entirely which is part of the Phoenix's purpose: 'The Judgement of the Phoenix' to burn away the obsolete. blah blah blah. A long time ago a young Jean Grey had telepathically linked her mind to her dying friend Annie Richards (no not the Invisible Woman) to keep Annie's soul from moving to the afterlife. Basically she tried to keep her from dying. And anyone who knows anything about sci-fi stuff when ever someone pulls a stunt like this something bad will happen. In doing so Jean's mind was being dragged along to the 'other side' with Annie. THe Phoenix lent its energy to break the connection and kept close watch on young Jean as it felt a kinship with the young mutant. Years later when Jean was dying on a space shuttle her mind called out for help and the Phoenix Force answered and saved her transforming Jean into the Phoenix. The original Jean Grey incarnation of the Phoenix was not a separate cosmic entity but Jean herself.. got it She had attained her ultimate potential as a psychic only to become slowly corrupted by the manipulation of such foes as Mastermind and Emma Frost. They totally messed with her head to the point that Jean was unable to adapt to her new found enormous power Jean was ultimately driven mad. She became... du du duuuuu... Dark Phoenix Jean destroyed a planet populated by sentient creatures (by eating the sun of that planet's solar system to satisfy her 'hunger' as Dark Phoenix - see she heard Galactus got off on it so she gave it a shot kind of like the munchies after... oh never mind) and subsequently committed suicide on Earth's moon (Uncanny X-Men #137). In order to return Jean to the Marvel comics (so marvel can make a butt load of money) this storyline was retconned (retold) to reveal the existence of the cosmic Phoenix Force entity which had created a duplicate body of Jean believed itself to be Jean and acted in her place while the real Jean lay in a coma in the ocean. This let Jean be revived as a member of X-Factor. The extent to which the duplicate and Jean are separate entities depends on who is writing the character(s) at the time. An awesome Phoenix pint glass to drink your Tang from! Mmmmmmm Tang and Oreos! NOT DISHWASHER SAFE: These glasses are works of art. Though durable for normal use they cannot stand up to the ridiculously high temperatures and harsh detergents in your dishwasher. Your dishwasher will fade and tarnish these highly sought after images ruining your glass! Instead HAND WASH these comic glass artifacts with some soap and common sense i.e. don't take a friggin' scouring brush to the paint. Proposition 65 notice for California residents.
