As was shown in the Spider-Man Secret Wars mini , his mere presence can cause reality to bend and warp , and this too was achieved at hungry levels .
Oh btw , since we are going on average power-levels , Galactus in one of his more recent appearances almost ended up destroying the multiverse in his battle with 2 other equally powerful beings . Based on his implied level of power , the best that RKT can hope for here is a stalemate against a non-jobbing , PIS/CIS/WIS bereft Galactus . Otherwise he's going down .
Professor Stuart from Excalibur tried to perform a time attack on Galactus as well, it had absolutely zero affect.

I don't recall saying he was, what I did was to add a incident where a time based attack, which by Captain Britain (a member of the omniversal guardians or whatever they are called) was described as a very dangerous force, the same guy that have seen the Celestial Nullifier, had zero effect on Galactus. So while Stuart's tech might not be on the level of RKT, which I never claimed to begin with, it's certainly not a toy, and just adds another incident which really point out that using time based attacks on Galactus isn't likely to have any effect at all, hell as mentioned by GodKiller, even Enchantress described Galactus as a being with no Boundries even saying that "time doesn't play your rules not on Galactus watch".

All Prof. Stuart did with his "attack" was attempt to BFR Galactus in the timestream. Stoic was suggesting something completely different like freezing time.

Yeah that flowery language is nice, but we've seen Galactus bleed, be poisoned, starve (during the Annihilation event when he was deprived of food, he was all wrinkly and parched), and die.

How do you explain him bleeding? How do you explain him starving and while starving having his skin all parched and wrinkly (exactly like a dying humanoid)? It was shown that he also has a bone structure (skull, etc...). He's been food poisoned. He almost died of an upset stomach when he ate the Elders of the Universe and they refused to digest because Death wouldn't claim them. He's been shown on panel DROOLING and sweating. How do you explain the fact that when Doom sucked the Power Cosmic from him, a humanoid Galan was seen crawling out of Galactus' armor?

This is exactly what I am speaking of as his current average, which has been given plenty of opportunity to not be the norm in terms of average showings. Let's face it, Galactus has fallen prey to overexposure just as many before him has.
His wounds at the hands of Thanos, or the Fallen One, near defeat via being beaten to death by Tyrant, written power appraisal of Chaos Wars Zeus one hit pimp slap, serious depletion of power reserves due to planetary explosion, sitting on his mighty throne instead of battling Asteroth, Odin's ability to hang tough, and only to lose due to getting up last, who also happened to awake at the same time leads me to believe that Galactus' new norm is below what it used to be in the past.
How many times should his measure be taken before he is seen in this current light that has been all but etched in stone?
@Godkiller, again I am not low balling or looking to spread PIS,CIS, or a splash of WIS (whatever that is), but I am instead citing too many events to be considered a low ball but more an average, or norm. Again I believe that the Rune King would defeat Galactus at average, although I admit that Galactus has the potential (rare potential) of being more powerful than the Rune King. Some of the crap that has been written about Galactus being so powerful seems to have been hyperbole in comparison to most of his showings.

That doesn't make much sense when you consider that the Avengers, FF, and Dr. Strange defeated a starving Galactus. While Tyrant nearly choked the life out of a well fed Galactus, and Odin stood up to a well fed Galactus as well, only to rise seconds later than Galactus.
Rune King Thor is another story. He would defeat an average Galactus, not a weakened, and starving one. Based on the new norm.

Blowing up galaxies while starving seems to be PIS when considered what has defeated him in that state in the past. One showing vs many. What should I choose? Anyways I made my point with valid reasons to support my stance.

A few major corrections:
1. Thanos did not harm Galactus at all by his own admission. I'm not sure you want to bring up Thanos anyway, considering how he was able to wade through Odin's EP like water and battle him for an extended period of time.
2. Tyrant was totally ineffective against Galactus in their second meeting until he used G's machines to suck all the power out of him. Also, Galactus straight up defeated a much moire powerful version of Tyrant a long time ago.
3. The Fallen one attacked Galactus while he was severly weakened and in a healing chamber and was still swatted away in the end. All he did was a little damage to Galactus's gauntlet.
4. Odin lost to Galactus by running into him and being so depleted by it and his mental attack that he could not continue the fight. He had to run into the Destroyer Armor by his own admission.
5. Zeus had the Chaos King and thousands of gods inside him. His power was seriosuly boosed in that story. Bringin up that writer's quote can open up a can of worms.
Your post is so biased that it's a joke, really. You should not let your like or dislike of a character influence you so much.

Funny thing is, Annihilus and Nova survived that galaxy busting attack. 😆

How do you know Galactus was 'spent' and starving'? After the blast he simply walked away and went about his business.
