What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Guardians Of The Galaxy?

11. Phoenix

Guardians Of The Galaxy Phoenix
Marvel Comics

Giraud grew up on New Haven, a planet inhabited solely by mutants. When his planet fell under peril, he found himself chosen by the Phoenix Force to be its newest wielder. With its power he handily defeated the invaders and later of course joined up with the Guardians of the Galaxy.

But this is the Phoenix we're talking about, so obviously this wasn't sustainable. Eventually Phoenix began losing his mind to the sheer power he wielded like all before him who crossed paths with the Phoenix, and so pulled away from the Guardians for their own safety. But not before being on quite possibly the most powerful roster the Guardians ever had, with both Firelord and Starhawk being on the team as well at the time.
