PLEASE READ CAREFULLY, before any of you confuse yourselves with these Scans.
"This issue is illogical, poorly written nonsense that one should ignore, It contradicts far too much of what is known and accepted about the characters to be taken seriously. But since this defense is open to the retort that perhaps everything else is wrong and these issues are right, let us instead look at the claims and implications of what is said. Let us examine what one would have to accept if one took everything in these two issues on face value.
First of all, Protege claims not just to be the new Living Tribunal, but the new One Above All (GOTG 49, last page); that is, Protege is God.
If he were indeed now God, what are we to make of Celestial's restraining him by throwing an energy blanket over his head?
Can a Celestial muzzle God?
And how does the energy blanket restrain this new OAA?
By allowing him "to see nothing of what transpires."
Yes, that's right, the new supreme being of the Multiverse is taken down by not being able to see the ends of his feet.
But wait, we don't have to commit to such nonsense, because we are told that the LT was clandestinely drawing on the Amulet of Aggamotto (not the Eye, not the Orb, but the Amulet) in order to restrain Protege.
In conclusion, therefore: Protege becomes TOAA, but is restrained by a Celestial energy hood that cuts off his sight and an amulet enhanced Living Tribunal.
If pressed to give an explanation I would say this: there is a history of mortal beings taking on vast powers and erroneously believing they are omnipotent (Doom in Secret Wars 1, Beyonder in Secret Wars 3, Warlock and Thanos in Infinity Gauntlet).
Perhaps Protege believes he is omnipotent,
but because he cannot even sense what is happening after having a hood thrown over his head, clearly his Cosmic Awareness is still Paltry if not Non-existent.
Clearly he has not absorbed the powers of the LT, perhaps he has absorbed an iota of an iota. Therefore, in conclusion, we are NOT seeing a Celestial restraining someone who is more powerful than the LT, let alone TOAA"

I will take a look. In my opinion, that's a lot better than Sue 'defeating' Exitar. Bad writing happens a lot
