And nowhere in the comics does anyone say that it is not the real Phoenix force. You like the Phoenix allot, I can understand that, but sometimes you have to accept that characters you like will lose battles as well.
When people say that Onslaught killed all of the avengers and such, they're referring to Onslaught fully powered up with Franklin's powers, aren't they?
Gender: Unspecified Location: IN YOUR MIND...MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Onslaught did not kill the Avengers, the X-men did when they attacked his form after the non-mutants and scarlet witch ran into it. Apparently while onslaught was being destroyed franklin subconsciously transported the Avengers into a pocket dimension inside his ball.
He's definitely not on the same level as Onslaught. I'm not denying that, though like I said, I normally don't count Onslaught because of the fact that he's a fused being.
I have to disagree about Apocalypse not being on the same level as Dark Phoenix, though. While Apocalypse may not be destructive by nature in the same way Dark Phoenix is as to do something like consume an entire star (as if he could, not that he needs to), he still obviously has the potential to be as much of a threat as her (if not a greater threat) in the Marvel universe.
And Kid Omega is in no way "enough" for him, as En Sabah Nur also naturally possesses telepathy & telekinesis, and is also a Genius-level intellect...
KidOmega thinks over a thousand brilliant thoughts a second. His intelligence is far above any characters in Marvel universe. Emma stated that you could even compare him to normal geniuses. He also reanimated Sophie's corpse, which I have yet to see any telekinetic do.
Although Apocalypse's experience and versatility makes him a better fighter than Kid Omega and such. KidOmega has much more raw power. Give him 20 years and he'd be one of the stronger Marvel characters and the new Phoenix.
P.S Good to see another Apoc fan here. He's underestimated
Heh. I noticed. >.> It would seem that I underestimated Kid Omega though ;_;, but I see your point now about him. I didn't know that he reanimated Sophie's corpse...
Gender: Unspecified Location: IN YOUR MIND...MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
he reanimated Sophie using power he borrowed from the phoenix, he would not be the new phoenix, if jean is the avatar then she is essentially immortal and would not need a replacement, he would become a phoenix, not the phoenix well not white crown anyway.
If you put them two of them in an Arena and said "fight" then Apocalypse would win. However, if you give Kid Omega a reason to fight and 10 more years, he'd win.
Gender: Unspecified Location: IN YOUR MIND...MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I am with the program, that's why i said he'd become a phoenix not the phoenix, if he was the most likely to be picked then why did the phoenix possessed firefly pass over him? it was looking for it's avatar, jean that's why. In endsong the fraction of the phoenix was confused and looking for a piece of itself not a host. the shi'ar believed he would be picked because of his omega mutant status, they obviously had no idea that the phoenix was coming to resurrect it's old body all they knew was that it retreated to earth where it would most likely possess an omega. If he were an avatar then the phoenix would have gone to him in warsong, since hosts fight the phoenix and an avatar would just let it do it's work after connecting with the consciousness. he was never there to fight, he was there to claim the power of the phoenix for himself so that he could fully resurrect Sophie, she was disgusted and both he and her choose to go back to wherever it was they were before the phoenix came to earth.
what powers do you speak of besides him being an omega level telepath? he never showed signs of any telekinesis until after the firefly made contact with him, and any telekinetic can reanimate a corpse he needed the phoenix to give her corpse life. him having tk not granted by the phoenix is just like back in the day when xavier could psi blasts robots into the ocean, a mistake.

I read the comics yes, there's no need to give me a summary
I also know that he couldn't grant Sophie life without the phoenix force, which it's not supposed to able to anyways. However, he still recreated her body, that's telekinesis on a molecular level.
Beast was partially able to resist Cassandra Nova's telepathy. He didn't have a shot at resisting Kid Omega's. I know he wasn't shown as a telekinetic until he had gotten some "aid" from the phoenix force. However, I still think it's possible that he might be one.
I don't know many cases where the Phoenix has granted some extra abilities. It might have though, I can't think of anyone right now.
Gender: Unspecified Location: IN YOUR MIND...MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
the only instances i can think of is when it took over Emma it gave her body the ability to absorb Scotts optic blast, and when it took over Celeste she had vast power to at least manipulate energy and time, it didn't really give Rachel her time travelling ability but it amped it up high enough to go from astral to physical, and then that guy who Rachel is sleeping with, the avian shi'ar as far as we know don't have innate powers but the Phoenix possessed his ancestor and a sword for that matter. then there's that guy Giraud? I'm not sure if he had powers before the phoenix made him a host. or maybe you were talking about beings possessed by the phoenix and still exhibiting power they didn't have before, after the phoenix left, i guess that's where the sword comes in as it still has some residual phoenix power left in it.
Phoenix' appearance in Endsong, not so sure about that. Phoenix isn't supposed to grant life.
Phoenix sword? I don't buy it. The recent uncanny x-men comics have been a complete load. Some guy suddenly appearing with a big blue sword and then sleeping with Rachel an hour later on.
Excuse me for not trusting this Korvus guy and his information
Gender: Unspecified Location: IN YOUR MIND...MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I agree 100% about Korvus and the blade of the phoenix crap, but the phoenix has said over and over it is life and fire and all that good stuff, it being the resurrection force leads me to believe that it can grant life most cosmic beings can resurrect the dead, shit even odin can.
