If he dies then Abraxas is released thats all. Abraxas will then destroy (or at least attempt to) the universe. Galactus' death doesnt automatically bring about the end of the universe as if he was its lifeline. I think you misinterpreted the comments of others which is why you should always go by on panel evidence as opposed to hearsay.
I post many scans and quote from comics, youre just never around enough to benefit from them. To be fair though the stuff i claim is current continuity and has been for over 3 years now. As a comic fan one would think you'd be more aware of this subject.
the fact that i will have master's next year does.... and yet again i offer you my help come to philli and i will cure you of your weird obsession with a female fictional character.
Well rather an appreciation for an interesting character as opposed to suffering delsusions of being said character and having homo erotic images of them for my sig. Whatever floats you boat mate. You'll get no hating from me.
And GS - you've got quite a talent at sounding condescending.
I'm sorry if I'm not up on current X-Men continuity. I'm married and have more important things to spend my money on than a comic series I have only vague interest in.

Phoenix has fought Galactus on 2 occassions and came out the better in both encounters.
The first occassion was in a what if called What If Phoenix rose again. In it instead of killing herself Jean Grey allowed the Shi'ar to perform a psychic lobotomy on herself removing all parts of her brain which were responsible for her psionic powers. Jean Grey fought against Galactus after the Shi'ar asked for the Xmens aid in defeating the planet eater. Jean Grey had up to that point been powerless after the surgery but as Cyclops was about to be killed by Terrax, her phoenix power emerged again. She quickly dispatched Terrax and then went on to fight Galactus and she stated that because of the lobotomy her powers were at that point relatively limited to the point where she wasnt sure if she could beat Galactus, however she said that her powers increased along a geometric curve every time she used them. Galactus and Phoenix fought and Phoenix got the better of him. While his efforts were shrugged off Phoenix caused him pain. He then tried to forge an alliance with Phoenix claiming them to be equals. Bear in mind that this was a limited Phoenix yet in this state her power equalled Galactus at that point. She went on to destroy his machinery and Galactus left the planet for an easier meal claiming that he couldnt be bothered with the effort and that had he stayed he could eventually dispatch Phoenix. A limited Phoenix versus a hungry Galactus and Phoenix clearly got the better of him and caused him to abandon his meal. Phoenix went on to continue using her power in missions and as she said it increased to its previous levels. She went on to revert to Dark Phoenix and after killing the Xmen went on to destroy the universe "destroying everything in her path". At that point Galactus obviously became a non factor.
In their second encounter which occurred in Excalibur #61 Phoenix fought Galactus again because he was about to consume a planet. The two fought and while Galactus' blasts had no effect Phoenixes blasts hit home and Galactus was leaking energy from his armour Phoenix was fine and Galactus talked his way out of the fight by telling Phoenix that she's just as bad as him if not worse because he may eat planets but she draws energy from future generations "life yet born":
"""Here i lie exhausted from our struggle while you are neither weary nor hungry because you tap into a source of near limitless potential. The sea of life yet born""
Galactus may not have been at full power during this encounter but even so his efforts had no effect on phoenix and what you must remember is that even if he was Galactus' energy source is finite while he burns up his energies and would eventually tire and run out of power, Phoenix could keep on going and be just fine at the end of it as shown by Galactus' comments here. If the battle continued it is fair to assume that Galactus would have been destroyed.
