My favorite thing about that cover will always be the little rocket shooting out of the big guy's shoulder.

Okay, so, in Justice League/Power Rangers #5 Lord Zed was about to giant-size a bunch of monsters and the Flash snatched the item that would do that before it landed (and Zed's "What?!" was pretty funny).

Then this happened:





I'm pretty sure that's the first time Alpha 5 has done anything even remotely aggressive.

Yes. He has the power to turn into a for real mountain. Nobody likes him anyways, but in the end to save his teammates, he turns into a mountain harder than he ever has before, and it's permanent. Reminds me of the guy that turned into the base for the Legion of Super Heroes. This comic is an amazing jab straight at X-Force when it was starting to get popular.

I'm sure there's tons I just am not aware if but has Phoenix had any/multiple awesome cosmic battles against Galactus? I could see him getting kinda pissed she just overcooked an entire solar system willy nilly that he could've chowed down on.

e: ok yeah, there's loads of them, most recently in Generations

The big plot drop from a tussel between Rachel Grey and Galactus during Excalibur was that while Galactus is for the most part just eating random planets, the Phoenix is in some sense sucking energy out of the future of the universe. Presumably mostly that long gray period in cosmology where the main source of energy would be proton decay...... probably... right? RIGHT?
