One word : Puffy.

And we did have that final scene with Scott, where was beginning to see the scope of his power, relative to how small and insignificant the Cosmos felt from his perspective.

yeah, i don't think it actually did TOO large a disservice to the pf. i mean a n00b scott took on both hope and wanda for quite a while and wanda was still getting a lotta luv at the time of that series....

I don't see how avx spoilt the Phoenix force
The Hosts stomped everyone
Wanda was basically their kryptonite

I.e., a mystic was their Kryptonite?

meh, not sure about that. i think it just had to do with the level of power wanda was throwing around. the dragon too is supposed to be very powerful--even the young one. iow i'm not convinced it was magic that was the weakness anymore than mephisto and agamotto have galactus problems. /shrug

It's not about just magic
Wanda herself was their weaknesses, maybe it's because of the nature of her magic (Chaos magic) or maybe her mutant power . No other mystic was stated t be its weaknesses

That crossover did have like one good issue out of the entire thing.

I felt the PF was presented decently enough. My problem was that the story ****ing sucked...

That issue by Hickman was the only good one. Could have been interesting had he written the whole thing. In addition to other things, I feel like he's the only person to ever deal with Hope properly.

👆 i really enjoyed the second coming arc though--that was one of my fave x-titles arcs. bastion was bad-a$$ imo.

i agree the avx wasn't great overall (i didn't hate it) but i thought the pf was given a decent due. not perfect, but not terrible....
