There's a world of difference between an explosion and an energy beam since a directed weapon can only destroy part of the target and a bomb sends the blast in all directions.

That's how the issue describes it.
It was a Universe waiting for it's Big Bang (to be born I presume)
So when the Big Bang came,
it was the same Big Bang that occurs before any and every Universe is born in Marvel comics.
That Reed harnessed a Universal Big Bang and used it as a concentrated beam,
20% of Gah Lak Tus was destroyed.
This Gah Lak Tus is pretty tuff.

Makes sense.
But like I said,
it was a direct hit, and for only 20% of Gah Lak Tus to be destroyed,
after being shot with a Universal Big Bang,
one must admit, is impressive, regardless of the dynamics concerning trajectories of sorts.
But the thing is, Gah Lak Tus is a huge armada. NO beam is going to take of the totality of it. Only the part that gets hit will be destroyed... In this case it was like a big ring around the Earth.
Every section that got hit, got destroyed. There's no durability feat at all, it just shows that Gah Lak Tus can lose 20% of it's ships without being hurt as a whole.

From my perspective is looked as if the universe was a room full of gas and the Nuke was a spark. Reed just harnessed the boom into a adequate weapon.
According to the issue that "baby" Universe's Big Bang was set off.
The same Big Bang that transforms those gases (baby universe) into a New whole Universe.

I'll agree.
I overlooked the fact that this isn't an Entity with a single form.
Reed still harnessed that Big Bang though. (however he did it, he did)
So our hats should go off to this Alternate Reed. 馃檪

I have no idea what you're talking about friend.
The UN is not in this story.
That was a Big Bang explosiong Reed harnessed, to use as a weapon against GLT.
If the Gah Lak Tus enitity had all the armada-bots line up over the weapon it would have taken out alot more than 20% of it. The fact that Gah Lak Tus was spread out like a chain around earth's orbit is what saved it from total destruction.
IMO the Gah Lak Tus enitity was evil (fueled by hate for organic life) whereas Galactus does as Galactus does. He must feed and that is the way of the universe.
Galactus 9/10
