Please stop with the Full-Power Galactus Nonsense!!
not sure why i've heard so much of this recently but it's getting ridiculous. seems people are thinking galactus has been shown to be at full power at some point.
HE. HAS. NOT.
someone brought up doom had his 'full power' after g absorbed his 'world ship', the ship that 'perhaps' was the greatest energy source in the universe. how the hell could the worldship have more energy than the entire universe!!? simple: it couldn't. ergo, that wasn't full power. no one has ever seen ful power g. after absorbing the world ship he was expected to next absorb war world then absorb the sun. he wanted all the power he could get to fight the beyonder. if he was still planning to absorb more AFTER the world ship, how in the hell could he have reached full power?? and doom's claim of 'omniscience' certainly is not enough to justify 'full' power, or his being 'equal to eternity'. compared to his limited mortal percpetions, OF COURSE having galactus's perceptions would seem like omniscience to doom.
full power galactus is a HYPOTHETICAL being. given that the non-canon (and INCREDIBLY CRAPPY) last planet standing had g ready to create a new big bang so he could achieve the 'next evolution of his power' (notice not 'full power', or even the 'LAST stage of his evolution') it seems to stand to reason that we will never SEE a full power g -- at least not in THIS universe.
what is the most powerful version of g we have seen? that's up for debate. when he absorbed the dreaming celestial THAT was impressive, even though he wasn't really in his right mind it shows what he IS capable of. destroying (supposedly) galaxies in battle with tyrant is a strong showing as well. i'm sure he was powerful after the worldship, but not AS powerful as he would have been had he absorbed the planet and its sun. he had some good feats in the first few issues of thanos's series, trying to get things to end his hunger.
i'm sure i've forgotten others.
just please, end the madness of this 'full power galactus' crapola. we don't even know for CERTAIN full-power=eternity. that is pure speculation and IF he ever reaches that level, he may well be shown to be something quite different.
he has never been shown to be at full power, and he probably never will be shown.
It was said that his ship was the greatest energy source, that dosen't mean it would fully charge Galactus, come to think of it, do we know if Galactus has an upper limit to the amount of energy he can "eat"?

no we don't. and it was said that his ship was PERHAPS the greatest energy source. which, in retrospect, is a very stupid claim and has been shown to clearly be wrong given what has been discovered SINCE that time. unless we say the gems, the hotu, the starbrand and all these other uber power sources came into being AFTER galactus's ship was destroyed . . .
no such thing as full power galactus. no one even knows 'for certain' exactly what he will be if he ever DID attain this mythical level of power.
I have said the same thing about the Full Power Galactus for quite some time... but some people just don't want to understand it.

We may never see him at that level.
But to know there is a upper limit to the countless galaxy destroying, stalemating In-Betweener (at a hungry level), makes him quite the force.
Hell every time he has fought Surfer to my knowledge, he has one shotted him. (when he hits him)
He has also been said to be an equal to one side to the triangle, by Death herself. He has been humbeled by Eternity.
NEXT Panel, Doom WAPRS Space and Time, and with Molecule Man goes from Battleworld to a Plane where the Fabric of the Universe is naked in ONE Instant.
"Behold, the Foundations of ETERNITY, the intertwining of Energies which is the basis of ALL THAT IS"
"Of all the mighty in the Universe, You are the mightiest, SAVE for DOOM" (actually Molecule Man was more powerful than Eternity, but he didn't know it yet.)
"What could Beyonder give me that is not already within my power"?

full-power implies he has reached his potential and cannot get 'stronger'. be like pouring more water into an already full cup. fp galactus is alleged to put him AT eternity's level, not 'at eternity's level but if he wants he can keep absorbing energy to go way BEYOND eternity.' regardless of what doom's reactions were to g's power, all we can say with any certainty is that the worldship made him 'really powerful', but not powerful enough that he was beyond the ability to take in even MORE power. as well, we've never been privvy to galactus's perceptions before, but as a powerful cosmic entity his perceptions would/should seem omniscient compared to doom's own perceptions.
PERHAPS that scene depicts the most power galactus WOULD have wielded, but even that is impossible to say.

thanks, bro. and i agree -- whole-heartedly. i'd LOVE to see galactus go off and wipe out a few of the newer cosmic big-wigs, rather than repeatedly be made the whipping boy of any cosmic being who needs to be shown to be powerful.
