A pet peeve of mine is the term "phasing" being used as synonymous with becoming intangible or immaterial. "Phasing" mean to synchronize or to schedule/order something. Chris Claremont used the term to mean "passing through objects" most specifically in reference to Kitty Pryde. Mutants can do that, I guess, but DC characters or anyone who isn't a filthy genejoke (or even muties who own dictionaries) cannot and should not.
