I'd give Beta ray at least 7/10 against Annihilus.Nova had little experience when fighting him and he didn't exactly display any form of skill against Annihilus. Beta Ray has at least as much power and plenty of experience.
Also, Nova was really nothing to him, and that was the point.
You forgot that Quaser got beat as well.

withOUT the bands annihilus would beat bill for a solid majority, imo -- especially as he was shown in annihilation.
It's based ONLY on his showings in Annihiliation.
Somehow he got a major power boost at the start of Annihiliation, I mean common, this guy has been beaten by the F4 and Thor beat him in the end. When he was without his cosmic rod the GIDEON FOUNDATION captured and tortured him. He's pretty much been Blastaar's equal for many years, and then suddenly he receives a major powerup.
Annihilation Annihilus would probably take BRB, but the old one wouldn't.

annihilus. beta ray bill was having fighting for his life against stardust.annihilus with quantum bands is (IMO) a bit higher than your average herald. Though stardust is above average for a herald of Galactus.
Annihilus with Quantum bands is much higher than your avergage herald. He killed Quasar before he had the bands. Put it this way, Ravenous is a bit higher than your average Herald (i.e Airwalker), and Ravenous serves Annihilus. Why would he serve someone less poweful than him?
P.S I do agree that Annihilus did get a ridicuous upgrade for Annihilation.

imo he's always been stronger than blastarr, and using the ff as reference is tricky considering who they have beaten in their history. 😬
no one knows how the gideon people got him so that is sort of irrelevent. and when did thor beat him? odin had to remove him from asgard in the one meeting i recall.

Ask yourself this...Did Annihilus get a huge powerup?
Or did we simply get to see more of Annihilus then we ever have before?
I believe it to be the latter personally. srug
You may have a point. We never seen him bring an entire armada from the negative zone before. Which may have given the illusion that he was more powerful than before, then with the addition of the q-bands forget about it. However, even before he got the quantum bands he did kill Quasar, which is a power display ive never seen before during his previous encounters with the F4.

But one of this arcs main focuses was Annihilus...
Any time we see more of a character then usual, it gives said character more of a chance to show off their power.
Not saying he didn't receive some sort of boost, just saying that it doesn't necessarily have to be that.
Just my 2 cents. ermm

Absolutely, infact i would prefer if your conclusions were correct. Everyone from Hulk to Silver Surfer getting some sort of upgrade is starting to bug me.
Maybe he just learned how to harness/control his (equivalent to power cosmic powers; forgot what its called) powers more effectively since he last faced the F4.
