Before this somewhat recent recon., the Phoenix felt pain when other's leached off her as Necron and Meggan (unintentionally) did. It's speculative on whether Galactus had the reserve powers to defeat Phoenix during that time (however, he had no trouble whisking her form away), but as what he's done to Hyperstorm, can't he just leach off her to repower himself?
Undecided on the fight.
Dark Phoenix wins this conflict.
Galactus, even at full power, can't combat the Chaos Bringer if both are going all out. Galactus's power reserves, due to his condition of always needing to replenish his physical self due to the "hunger", would be his undoing, on top of him being genuinely outclassed.
Dark Phoenix's energy source is perpetually infinite. She doesn't need to refuel, she is the fuel.
Note: This does not mean that the Power Cosmic itself is not infinite, it simply means there is a limit to how much Galactus can wield at a particular point in time before he exhausts his reserves and must refuel. Even at full power, he eventually begins to taper off and drop in potency in prolonged combat, there simply aren't that many beings that can engage a full powered Galactus in combat to which this would become an issue.
Dark Phoenix simply happens to be one of these beings.
Galactus would become overwhelmed, and his skull would go careening into lower Manhattan (hopefully landing on and killing Wolverine), and Abraxas would be set loose in the 616.

But we're talking about it in terms of current continuity so none of that really applies. As for him leeching power off of hyperstorm he was weak in both instances he fought phoenix in th epast and he never pulled off such a feat then. Now that we're talking about phoenix in current continuity Galactus' very power cosmic derives from her so she could just shut off his connection. Game over.

That's actually a good point. I wonder if he could leach indefinitely though.

Even a weak nearly dying Galactus was going head to head with Dark Phoenix.
There is a reason why they made Hungry Galactus vs Dark Phoenix
and when have we seen Galactus fed Overwhelmed?

KG give it up my man your points arent solid. You keep talking about how it was a weak Galactus but youre conveniently failing to acknowledge how it was also a weak Phoenix.
When it was a normal phoenix against Galactus (In Excalibur) he got massacred and yeah he wasnt at full power but he certainly wasnt emaciated. Plus he highlighted on panel the finite nature of his power versus the unlimite potential of phoenix. If he'd just eaten a planet as i said and then as Ill went on to lay it down his energy reserves would still eventually fade during battle while phoeni xwould be going on strong as ever.
Forget that mess anyway those battles were all retcon interpretations of Phoenix so now as we've seen from sources such as New X-men and Xmen Forever theres really no chance for Big G.
You previously said if we were talking about phoenix as she is in current continuity she wins hands down. The threadmaker has just said thats the phoenix interpretation we're going by so give it up.
Youre stubborn as hell and knowing you you will keep on arguing regardless of the quite apparent holes in your argument which many here have pointed out. Like any good Captain you'll go down with your ship and that is admirable at least. I salute you KG. 😉
