Yeah cause whenever anyone first gains the phoenix power they never talk about being one with everything.
And then they get beat up by some other being claiming the same thing, or infinite power, all powerful, omnipotence.
Also if there's no energy source for creation to draw from, how can there be anything to power it? if there's nothing to fuel a power how can there be a power of creation then?
There is energy source. But to say it's the Phoenix Force is not proof. There's different sources of power throughout the MU. The Power Cosmic, the Enigma Force, the Quantum Zone energy, Cube energy, the Odin Force, the Essence, the Phoenix Force, and others that you or I have yet to read. There's a difference between the energy that makes up these and the Phoenix Force. The Force or sentience source that is the PF is totally different from these other powers I listed. There hasn't been any mention of the PF being the power that fuels creation, that are the underlining power of these other powers. This original source of all these power is linked to it's creator, TOAA.
More times than you'd care to admit.
This is a funny one since I'm looking for a number and your giving me a variable.
of course not. JEan has a pet nickname for one of TOAA's body parts, why would any of the other abstracts refer to the same body part as that name?
LOL. Jean has a nickname for TOAA's body parts? Then I guess the Living Tribunal is TOAA's conciousness and Multiverse Eternity is TOAA's the rest of TOAA's body.
The Phoenix Force is the Phoenix Force. This power/force/entity/cosmic has been called the Phoenix Force by abstracts and others times over. Eternity, Stranger, Feron, Necron, Merlin, Dr. Strange, Prosh, the Shi'Ar, and Eon. Jean isn't the one that named it. Nor has any of the these beings ever mentioned it as related to TOAA.
Jean is the one who first used the term Phoenix Force. Why would Eternity explain or use a name that Jean came up with?
Because if the Force was responsible for the abstracts creation, Eternity would have said it when it was talking to Jean. Instead he referred to it as the Ressurection Force, then went on to talk about the Celestials, Galactus, and humanity. He made no big deal about the Ressurection Force/Phoenix Force. Never stated it was his creator. He knows what this Force and so do many others. They've all refered to it as the Phoenix Force. Why? Feron shaped this force into the form of a Phoenix. And so this Force took that shape, the form of the Phoenix.

In other words you have nothing to counter this. I see.
You know I'm just going to be repeating myself a bunch through this pointing out the existence of Synonyms, nicknames and asking why someone else would use a nickname that someone else came up with. And you still haven't disloged this theory.
It's in the form of a Phoenix. What would you have anyone calling it? It's not a pet name. That's the name that writers and characters refer to this entity/cosmic/force or whatever have you. Are we to assume that every time a universe is brought up, it's refering to Eternity? That universe Magus created didn't have it's own Eternity, which is ironic since the entire saga is about dopplergangers.
And Marvel's own site once mentioned captain america running at something like 75 mph... They've put up a bit of a wiki on their site for the fans to maintain. No telling how frequently its checked by any of the people who work for marvel.
That's not the same thing. Power level is a funny thing and happens alot. Even characters strength level is up for debate. That's why you don't see me pointing to power bars and trying to deabte that.
Origins is much more accurate. If they had said Captain America was Ron Alberto who got his powers from immursing in the terrain mist and his arch enemies include the Punisher, the Juggernaut, the Mandrin, and the Green Goblin, then I'd agree with you and toss out bios. But origins and events are accurate in most bios.
Let's check these events and origins:
LT is the Judge of the Multiverse and serves TOAA? True: Kubik, Watcher, Warlock, Eternity, the Infinity Well, and others acknowledge this.
LT has three faces? True
LT guards the Multiverse? True again
Eternity is the embodiment of the universe and time? True: Mentioned multiple times by every cosmic.
Galactus is the world Devourer and a savivor of the previous universe: True: Multiple beings and a few depictions of him being saved from the previous universe by Eternity.
Phoenix Force's former host includes Rachel, Jean, Amber, Giraud? True
PF was shaped by Feron? True
PF healed the M'Krann crystal? True again.
PF was pulled into the Ultraverse? True again.
If that bio says Steve Roger is Captain America, a super soldier created to fight the Nazi, his main arch enemies include Baron Zemo and the Red Skull: how can you dismiss this bio? Strength, intelligence, agility, and all those gauging an ability has always been incurate. Origins come from the comics, events come from comics. What's so inaccurate? Would you dismiss bio infos such as LT serving TOAA or Phoenix being shaped by Feron?
The messurment of the passage of time is a fairly man made thing...
Actually it's not. Time means nothing to cosmics but even they acknowledge it. The Celestials journey to planets on an evolutionary basis, which is runs in measurements of time. They gave the gods of Earth thousands of years before they judged Earth. Everything runs by time.
So you don't like the idea of refering to the big bang as the Phoenix Force?
Every big bang is not the PF. That's like saying every universe is Eternity. Eternity is the embodiment of the universe. But I wouldn't say that every universe is called Eternity or 616.
I have no idea how many times you've said this, and I have no idea how many times I've responded to this with the same thing that I usually say.But I'll say this again: a Rose by anyother name...
This is where we disagree. Your saying that every big bang is the Phoenix Force which isn't true. Not every big bang is the PF.
So until you can tell me concretly what it is, can you concretly tell me everything that it's not?
I can tell you what it's not because everything that deals with the Phoenix Force does not refer to what your saying.
What your saying is that the Phoenix Force IS the Force of Creation, the Source of power for the everything, the spark of Creation, the Big Bang, the creator of the abstracts, the source of power for the fiery form that appears to Jean Grey. And that this force is TOAA's power.
What I'm telling you is that's not true. There's no indication that every big bang in the multiverse, past and present is the power called the Phoenix Force. I've looked at all the scans provided in this board, books I have, bios, and post in other forums regarding the MU. None of which on any character, not just the PF, refers to what your saying. It's not referred to as the creator of the MU, creator of the abstracts, TOAA's power, or even close to the Living Tribunal in power.
Hence my insistence that the phoenix force has been a name given to things other than a sentient character
The PF is the PF. What it represents and where it's place in the hierarchy is a mystery. Again, Eternity is the universe or represents it. But he's not every universe, nor does every universe have an Eternity.
And if speculation is all we have then isn't all you have against it just speculation as well?
No. I disagree with the fact that the abstracts were created by the Phoenix Force. This is based on the lack of any thing at all that indicates the PF created the abstracts. You can bring up any bio or comic you'd like to prove me wrong.
Unless they feel it's a given. Humans don't alway talk about blood. But you can't tell me that blood isn't important to a human.
That's not the same thing. A creator of the MU or the abstracts is truly powerful and would be recognized by writers and Marvel editors. The source of power that fuels the universe is not worth mentioning, but it's "birth between voids" and Jean Grey being it's main host is? And unlike other cosmics, the PF has been featured as much as Galactus. Yet they mention Galactus as the scientist named Galan from and previous universe, but some how they don't mention PF being creator of the abstracts in any bio?
