I should probably update the respect thread with Harbinger's showings...

Who do you think win a fight between 616 versions of magneto and apocalypse, Phil?

You just asked one of the biggest Magnus fans on the web to repeat what he's been saying for 13 years.

Are you going to ask zopzop if he's gay next? stick out tongue

Yeah, I see what you're saying, but War's performance against Emma is not something Nur shouldn't be capable of.

Phil, do you remember if Jean had her Phoenix powers when she met Essex and Apoc in the past? I know that she did go by the codename "Phoenix" then and the book title is saying that too, but I'm still not sure.

@DS

Anyway, we're going in circles now, I already agreed on page 2 that Despero is tailor-made for conquering all minds, strong or not. That's his whole thing.

I agree.

At this point, I can't follow what Jean taps when with what Phoenix force. I just consider her "regular" Jean.

I'm getting too old for this shit.

As mentioned already, Apoc does have a great track record against telepaths (Jean, Exodus, Cable) and powerful beings with vast arrays of powers, including some psionic abilities (Prime Eternal Ikaris, High Evolutionary).

Then you have Mister Sinister, who keeps rebelling/plotting against Nur... instead of, you know, obliterating him with a barrage of mental blasts.

I agree that Blue Lips needs more on panel feats, but Marvel keeps wanking Purple Chin instead.

Racism at its worst.

Yeah, it's a mess...

But hey, *if* that was indeed regular Jean... it's a great thing that Marvel happened to retcon the Phoenix Force as the thing that holds Jean back and prevents her from reaching her full power... shifty

She really needs to go back to her grave, lol.

Any idea why she still goes by Phoenix, then?

I always thought she used that codename for a reason, you know.

Then again, women never make any sense.

Was it not something to do with Rachel asking her to, or something? It's been a while since I read it.

Great find. That'd explain it. Thank you.

And thank Marvel for revealing to us how Phoenix-less Jean is even more powerful... shifty

Nah, not Zero Tolerance.

I'm talking about the quite recent events --- shortly after Jean was brought back.

Scans were posted on KMC (but they got buried, as usual), I think the idea got explored in the X-Men: Red run:

Also, credit to the artist for the third panel in which she's squatting to take a shit on our childhoods.

lol.

Also, just fyi, that scan is from Cyclops and Phoenix #4. Not the Further Adventures, which is the one posted earlier with Apoc and Sinister.
