Mxyzptlk vs Galactus

Galactus can do virtually anything. He is a primordeal force of the universe. What could Mxyzptlk do that Galactus cannot?

Geez, once someone is proven more powerful than Superman in a comic, he's suddenly omnipotent. You say that Mxyzptlk has complete control over reality and time. Prove it.

No, Galactus cannot do practically anything. If that was the case, why couldn't he defeat The Beyonder? Why did Phoenix blow him away? Why was Doom able to steal his converted homeworld (and Galactus could not reclaim it)?

5th Dimensional Beings from the DCU can do virtually anything. Batmite and crew unmade the universe and recreated it for the hell of it. Even 4th dimensional beings are more powerful than 3rd dimensional beings.

"Prove it?" He can do virtually anything in "our" dimension. He turned Superman into a cartoon character. He has made buildings walk. He created red kryptonite for the hell of it. If you read JLA (Grant Morrison run)...argh, the issue with Triumph, you will see an example of a 5th dimensional being at work. There is also an issue with General Eiling's super soldiers wherein one of his soldiers has the ability to draw on the power from the 4th dimension. Did you see what happened when she hit Wonder Woman? It was like a pluck.

what happens when Mxy erases Galactus' food source planets. whats he going to do then. the only reason he doesn't try to take the universe is because he a "fun"-loving trickster and he likes to make pranks. Imagine a serious Mxy trying to do those kinds of things.

Try reading ANY myx comics because Im sure you havent. Did you check out the link I posted.

I've read up on Mxy. Perhaps he does have these powers. That doesn't mean he has the intelligence to beat Galactus, who is omniscient. CIS is a legitimate argument in this forum.

He doesnt need intelligence with the amount of power he has.

CIS?

I was making a point Hegemon.

Galactus's only method of attack would be getting Mxyzptlk to say his name backwards. Other than that, Mxyzptlk should win if his powers work on Galactus. I'm not sure whether magic, even though extradimensional, supercedes the power cosmic. Mephisto is magical and can do anything in his domain/dimension, and Galactus defeated him on his home turf while hungry.

CIS = Character induced stupidity.

Some characters are just plain idiots and though they are super powerful have inherrent character flaws that always lead to there doom; like Mxyzptlk's arrogance and habit of letting his enemies know his weakness because he feels he's so powerful they can't harm him.

Read Tron's board rules.

The power cosmics stems from our dimension Mxy comes from a "higher" dimension the 5th one. Does the power cosmic (which I believe to be a cheap "go to" response for galactus/heralds) give him the ability to do the things mxy does?

ok, but then you admit the fact that mxy is more powerful than galactus and the only way he could beat mxy is by tricking him. Besides Im not sure but I think that "weakness" is one mxy abides by only for the fun of it and doesnt actually have to return to the fifth dimension if he doesnt want to.

Why doesn't he need intelligence? Give a newborn baby a gun, and they have power over life and death. Do they have the intellegence to properly wield it? Mxyzptlk has only been shown to use his power for his own childlike amusment.

If you mean alter matter and creating life? Yes. If you mean creating walking-talking buildings and airplanes that tell bad jokes, and killer flying hot dogs out of thin air, Galactus is a little too serious to do things like that, so probably not.

that example is an exaggeration the baby doesn't even have the motor skills necessary. This thread was created with the assumption they WILL be using all powers at their disposal in order to destroy the other. You are definitely a Galactus fan boy.

but CAN he thats the question. Mxy is far beyond Galactus.

Mxy may or may not be more powerful than Galactus. Galactus is capable of creating life. However, he would probably not create a walking building or a flying hot dog/airplane.

Mxy is probably on par with the Phoenix Force.

And Mephisto is an extradimensional magical being. He has his own dimension. In his dimension he can bend the laws of physics and do anything he wants like Mxyzptlk, save beating Galactus. Galactus can beat Mephisto in his own realm.

if you think he's not you need to do some more reading up on mxy.

Mxy can rewrite physics i.e. walking buildings, talking inaniamte objects, turning supes into a toon. They're from different dimensions so of course their abilities would be different.

Creating a walking building is not rewriting physics. If you think so, you should pick up a physics book. Physics is irrelavant in comic books anyway. Transcending light speed defies physics.

physics is irrelevent? Well coulda fooled me from the flash exploding through stuff debat we had. You're right its rewriting reality. (I meant physics in the broadest terms)
