Synopsis: Lilandra transports the X-Men to her base so that Phoenix can be killed for her crime of wiping out an entire star system.

The X-Men and the Imperial Guard fight on the Blue Area of the Moon to determine Jean's fate. During the battle, Dark Phoenix manifests herself once again and Jean sacrifices herself rather than let the Phoenix loose on the universe.
