This is my question:

If the Phoenix is officially listed as "dead" now... then doesn't that alter the rules of reality?

If the Phoenix is a cosmic entity of death and rebirth who essentially destroys what "doesn't work" in the universe and replaces it with new life... then wouldn't the universe enter into a state of stagnation until the failed elements that the Phoenix would have wiped out grow to outnumber the successful elements of life? Ultimately leading the universe into the fate of becoming something that "doesn't work"?

In other words, did Scarlet Witch and Hope just royally screw up existence itself? Or will something else come into existence to take the Phoenix's place so that the universe won't stop functioning?

If I was going to separate it into 3 leaders I'd do it as such:

Magneto - In time of war/conflict

Storm - In time of peace

Cyclops - For all those in-between times. Except when a certain cosmic entity that begins with P and ends with hoenix is involved.

Wolverine doesn't really seem like a leader. He can be a team leader or a squad leader... but not a leader on a grand scale. Same applies to most of the other poll options.
