Ok, I'll consider Galan's meticulous attention to my every post,
looking for that one moment when he can finally interject in this discussion
by highlighting where I "might" be wrong.
So, let's say it is "canon" ... (not that I'm supporting that idea)
What difference does it make?
Reed never beat the LT in that issue,
if you know the story, then you know the Abstracts (including LT) beat themselves indirectly,
and at best, Reed caused that inadvertence to take place.
The LT and some abstracts were concentrating their power into a single point,
in order to erase an alternate Galactus from existence.
Then Reed shot his gun that was built to destroy that alternate Galactus
into the concentration of power made by the LT and several abstracts,
this caused a cosmic feedback of the LT's and abstract's power,
and thus their own power shot back at them, sending t5hem into other dimensions.
(as if that should stop the LT anyway)
This whole scene is absolute nonsense!
Abraxas was casually killing alternate Galactus across the Multiverse,
alternate UNs have erased alternate Galactuses from existence,
heck, freakin heroes turned Zombies have killed an alternate Galactus
* ... and a team of Abstracts have to join forces to wack one alternate big G?
in combination with the LT's power no less? *
"Last Planet Standing" >>>
++ Canon or not,
the story shouldn't be taken seriously on the strength that the LT
shouldn't need the help of anyone to do something that idiotic zombies can do.

^ Same can be said of Marvel: The End, which I consider to be a vapid recycling of Starlin's Thanos stories where nothing meaningful happens, e.g., Thanos' sacrifice, and the finality of death both reversed.
Or in short, that story was . But we're all entitled to our opinions on what stories are good and what stories are bad.

Well, while "M - The End" surely wasn't any fictional illustrated masterpiece,
regardless of our heated differences, ya gotta admit ODG,
"Last Planet Standing" and "M - The End" are two separate worlds of horse
And when you bend over both stories,
a truck drives far deeper up the chocolate highway in "L.P.S."
than in "M - The End"
True, but come on ...
DeFalco must've been on 'luds' to allow that into serious publication.
Had it been a "What if" ... one could understand the asininity behind L.P.S.
but to place it in the MC2 Reality, is almost insulting.
(considering MC2 is understood as a proper alternate universe
unlike 'What ifs' where anything goes)

In the room of manifestations you are given a faux body by the antromirpho entity
eternity stated his totality would have been destroyed if it wasn't a mere visualizaion of him...
Hence had the ig truly did that same blast it would have destroyed eternity if not for the faux body Being only a visualization created by the anthromorpho
All beings that manifest in the Room of m are

Not exactly good friend.
Eternity said the IG's affect would've been "non-existent"
had he'd not been a visualization of his totality.
(which is bogus, since he came full force against Thanos and got owend)
btw. Concepts cannot manifest in any reality/non-reality without an M-Body.
That's not exactly accurate either friend.
Quasar/Magus/Contemplator & the Avengers are amongst many
who have manifested in the room of M without M-bodys.
And again, Concepts need an M-body to manifest anywhere, not just in the D of M.
^ I think somebody finally coherently explained that inane triple negative statement that Eternity made when Warlock blasted him. Lord. That was a doozy.
Mr Master: What can I say? I liked Last Planet Standing more and thought it was more credible than Marvel: The End. LT's been tooled before. This time it was by a plot device special star and MC2 Reed. I was not particularly flabbergasted anymore than the other times LT's been tooled. And in the early 90's Patrick Oliffe was my favorite artist too. So there's that.
If you go with the statement that eternity would be unaffected by the ig... Then you might have to accept that the ig is not at it's full power outside of it's home realm...I said might dammit... :-P
going back to maelstrom
at the point he confronted Thanos with the ig
he had his own latent power
amped by the quantam bands
plus the cosmic role of anamoly after defeating him
and the cosmic awareness of eon after merging with him...
And the backing of oblivion
he was no small chump

LOL. I can't comment on something I haven't read. Another dodge. That's been referenced in Thanos' own series. What's bs about it other than you not liking doom's portrayal in it?
False. he said the effects would have been nonexistent. this means it wouldn't have even phased him. No, the point is just a blast from the ig doesn't easily destroy kill anyone this high up on the power scale.
Maelstrom only became an avatar of Oblivion after his meeting with Thanos. Even then he was less powerful than Thanos.
Avatar was after
the backing was before. Oblivion told him how to get. The cosmic awareness.
And as to the thanos blast... Thanos was surprised that he did not destroy maelstrom. That does not identify with what you are saying.. Thanks intended to obliterate maelstrom but failed to do so and was surprised he survived it...
This coming from thanos who was supposedly omnipotent...

Yes, meaning he was less powerful than when he was his avatar.
Yes, he was unsure of who he was,etc. and figured the blast would have destroyed him. He wasn't aware of how he acquired his powers or really anything about him at this point.
You know words like this get thrown around a lot in comics.

In the ig series thanos claimed to get sensory information from the gems
if he was omnipotent and had access to that info how could he not have known who or what maelstrom was
