Phoenix-powered Jean Grey, Iceman and Nightcrawler!
The Phoenix Force is one of the oldest known cosmic entities, representing life that has not yet been born. The Phoenix Force is an immortal, indestructible, and mutable manifestation of the prime universal force of life. Born of the void between states of being, the Phoenix Force is a child of the universe. It is the nexus of all psionic energy which does, has, and ever will exist in all realities of the Omniverse, the Guardian of Creation, and a de-facto guardian of the M’Kraan Crystal. The Phoenix is among the most feared beings in the entire universe – having the power to cut and regrow any part of the universe, as well as destroy it entirely, which is part of the Phoenix’s purpose: “The Judgement of the Phoenix”: to burn away what doesn’t work. Recent interventions of the Phoenix suggest that “what doesn’t work” is what has become stagnant instead of naturally evolving.
Bob Larkin (born July 10, 1949) is an American artist primarily known for his painted covers for Marvel Comics’ magazine-format titles Marvel Magazines in the 1970s and early 1980s.
Larkin’s many credits include titles such as Crazy Magazine, Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu, Marvel Preview, Marvel Super Special, Planet of the Apes, Savage Sword of Conan, and The Tomb of Dracula. Larkin painted covers for many of the Marvel Fireside Books paperback collections, lending them a simple, movie-poster feel. He did the same thing for the cover to the second major intercompany crossover, Superman and Spider-Man. In addition, Marvel occasionally tapped Larkin to paint covers for premiere issues of such comic book titles as Dazzler and The Saga of Crystar.
Besides his work for Marvel, Larkin has painted covers for Vampirella and The Rook (Warren Publishing), The Amazing Adventures of Holo-Man (Peter Pan Records), Lorelei: Building the Perfect Beast (StarWarp Concepts), and many others.
Larkin provided covers to Bantam Books reprints of Doc Savage, as well as World Wrestling Entertainment merchandise featuring The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Kane, and Chris Jericho.
