LETS WIKIATTACK
In Greek mythology, a phoenix (/ˈfiːnɪks/; Ancient Greek: φοῖνιξ, phoînix) is a long-lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Associated with the Sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. According to some sources, the phoenix dies in a show of flames and combustion, although there are other sources that claim that the legendary bird dies and simply decomposes before being born again. There are different traditions concerning the lifespan of the phoenix, but by most accounts the phoenix lived for 500 years before rebirth. Herodotus, Lucan, Pliny the Elder, Pope Clement I, Lactantius, Ovid, and Isidore of Seville are among those who have contributed to the retelling and transmission of the phoenix motif. In ancient Greece and Rome, the phoenix was associated with Phoenicia, (modern Lebanon), a civilization famous for its production of purple dye from conch shells. In the historical record, the phoenix "could symbolize renewal in general as well as the sun, time, the Empire, metempsychosis, consecration, resurrection, life in the heavenly Paradise, Christ, Mary, virginity, the exceptional man, and certain aspects of Christian life".

I mean, the pose is quite similar

I'm sure Trance Band would appreciate it more if you didn't upload a piddling 1000x1000 size jpg thumbnail and instead uploaded the original size png.

Holy smokes. That has to be the best drawn phoenix i've ever seen. And I mean EVER. You can even see the details on the feathers from here. The burning crest of fire flickering in the non-existent darkness, the talons, I can't name it all.
I just absolutely love how you show the tail coming out of the lava as though it is born from the flowing magma.
This is incredible. Absolutely incredible. I'm adding this to the favorites list
