Galactus is on the search for a new Herald. What person would YOU want Galactus to pick as his Herald? When he choose this person, what powers would you grant them (flight is automatically added as one of their powers)? You can only give them 3 additional powers added to their own.
So who is your chose and what upgrades do they get.?
A sensible choice of herald would probably be Reed Richards, he'd probably share Galactus' view of the paramountcy of his survival.
Also, imagine Reed with the Power Cosmic, he'd probably be quite monstrous in battle, even more effective than Galactus is (which is mostly because Galactus seems even more of a pacifist and self-loathing creature than Surfer does!).
The character who would be best to combine with the Power Cosmic is Hulk. It would probably make him the most powerful creation Galactus has ever made.
Storm. Can you imagine cosmic storms an solar flares raining down on opponents?

Rhino with the Power Cosmic might be good, then again, Galactus already has Terax.
Cyclops would be an interesting choice, strong character, willing to kill when necessary, great tactician and decent strategist, already punching above his weight with his limited powers so with the PC he could cause serious damage... Rename him Cyclonus (the Transformers' Cyclonus is lame though).
I'm desperately trying to suppress a yawn... Other than the art, there's nothing interesting about Storm.
I did this a few months ago, minus the upgrade option. I'll stick with my previous choices Superboy Prime, Hank Henshaw, and Lobo. Doomsday would be interesting.
READ THIS.. What happens when the Galactus makes Darth Vader his herald and Luke as well. . The power cosmic combines with the power of the Force. Love this description in the story
"Galactus grants Luke Skywalker his request. His skin is transformed into gold. His black Jedi tunic and cloak become a white, majestic robe, like that of royalty. His Light Saber now equals the power of Vader, offering him the ability to create and transmute, rather than destroy any form or quantity of matter. And like Vader, he too can teleport, is invulnerable, and his power through the Force is also magnified a thousandfold.
The battle which ensues is epic to say the least. Stars are hurled and destroyed. Light sabers clash with the force of ten super novas. The battle seems to last an eternity. The inhabitants of the galaxy are simply forced to helplessly bear awed witness to the spectacle. Some races pay the ultimate price simply for their worlds being in the way of the combatants' conflict. Luke tries to repair as much damage as he can in the process, but such distractions only serve to put him at a disadvantage.
After much destruction, and the galaxy itself being rearranged, the conflict comes to a stalemate. Palpatine has been aware of everything thus far, and has struggled to maintain his control over Vader, allowing his anger in battle to fuel his power through the Dark Side. Luke has tried to maintain control as well, but the battle has taken its toll. He too is filled with much anger. He finally decides to end the conflict once and for all. Luke refuses to fight anymore....."
Remy lebeau... Imagine him at his peak...
Then amp even that with the power cosmic...
Youd have a maelstrom like mutant roaming earth all over again.

Wolverine would be perfect imo. Light speed reaction, super strength high end durability plus additional increase with his healing factor...senses heightened. This alone puts him in the trans tier+.
Giving Wolverine the Power Cosmic wouldn't make him equal to Silver Surfer. And if he got the exact same powers as the Silver Surfer, virtually all of his existing powers become redundant. At best, he'd bring his skills/fighting ability and have adamantium claws. Not enough to make him Trans.
The power cosmic doesn't amp people the same way...sometimes it adds on to their existing powers. Wolverine existing powers increased in a certain fashion would make him virtually unbeatable. He already has claws that cuts through anything, the only thing that is missing is the strength capable of doing so. Then add in extra speed which virtually gives him a 100% chance of tagging you. He already have high end durability, now his skin would be tougher to damage and once damage his healing factor would patch him up immediately. This doesnt include his increase in his super human senses ot his martial arts skill and Adamantium bones. Hell, Wolverine could add more strike towards his adamantium by coating it with the power cosmic.
