If a player uses a Super flare, should you stop it with a Card Zap or a Cosmic Zap?
The designer says there is no official ruling and reports the community consensus; a community poster agrees.

There is no official ruling, but the consensus among experienced players is that using a Super flare counts as using the power. A Card Zap cancels and discards the flare, while a Cosmic Zap blocks the power's use so the flare returns to the player's hand.
