X - Men - The Legend of Phoenix

  

   The world is darkness, but there is Fire... and Shadow, to illuminate the path...
   There are many legends, shrouded in time and shadow, about a winged creature, of life and fire, dying in flames, rising from death. From the ashes of its former life. Again and again, unending to the end of time and beyond. It’s the myth of each and every human, of humanity itself, defying the life that is death, the death that moves and breathes.
   We are Phoenix, the incarnation of life and fire. We always have been and always will be, reborn from the ashes. The Phoenix will flap its wings and leave the green rainbow earth in its wake...

  

                    

  

As for Phoenix, the comic book character:

   Jean is Phoenix. It’s not a creature, not a non-human being, but Jean, in various forms, power levels and levels of awareness. She, like Onslaught, has glimpsed her own, ultimate potential. To us who have researched the matter thoroughly it’s obvious that her power levels started spiking way before the crash of the space shuttle. The radiation and the crash, by the threat to her Life and to that of her mate and friends, the boundless desperation, disrupting the maturing of the power, bringing it forth far ahead of «schedule».
   To the reader’s information, let me enlighten you by informing you that I’ve discarded almost everything not written during Claremont's first run, in the X-Men main titles, especially the Excalibur issues and the Byrned Out John retcons. Jean, as she’s portrayed in the new X-Men issues, is very much like she was portrayed in Wolverine #125, which I think was right on the money.
   Like the 31st century sorcerer Sise Neg, she, through her birthright, her power, has touched something fundamental in the universe, thus becoming part of its inception, effectively becoming «Life and Fire Incarnate». Subconsciously, perhaps because of her mate (I’m deliberately keeping it on a primal level here), she has chosen to limit herself. Now, with the death of the mate, the reason for the limitation no longer apply. With the return of the mate the dam is still broken and the raging river is flowing.
