Galactus would definitely win, but I haven't seen anything of his that puts him above a Skyfather like Odin in terms of power.
Galactus' greatest feat was destroying galaxies in his battle with Tyrant, which Odin has done with his battle with Seth.
He's also got some incredibly low showings - maybe nothing so bad as being knocked out by an earthquake or kidnapped by Aliens (Odin) but getting knocked around by Thing and Dr. Strange.
I'll post some Guardian stuff later, perhaps.

Incredibly weak? Can I get a quote for that one?Dying? Can I get a quote for those?
After the battle they had to save his life as he was dying, aparently from Strange's spell (if the scan I got from a while ago is correct), but I'll probably have a read of it.

I know the issue, I wanted a quote.
Being hungry is different from being incredibly weak. Dying from Strange's spell is very different from being on the verge of death on his own.
Galactus is ALWAYS hungry. As soon as he eats a planet, Surfer goes off and finds another.

But Odin was never stunned by any of Thanos' blasts, where as Galactus was knocked back and his helmet destroyed.
And Odin took out the Surfer in a single blast, but we've seen the Surfer not only withstand more than one blast from Galactus, but also evade and damage Galactus himself.
Finally, you don't have a single feat of Galactus' that puts him above the best of Odin's.
Galactus is about Odin level, and thats for real.

If Galactus wanted to destroy Surfer he would. Galactus doesnt defeat and destroy many characters in one blast. But then again,he doesnt see them as threats,while Odin was defending his home. Huge difference there.
Your basing this entirely off of collateral damage. Thats it. Thanos contested Odin's superiority over him,but agreed that Galactus is well above him.
Galactus is well above Odin,and thats as real as it gets.
Originally posted by DesaadGalactus called himself weak before he imprisoned the F4, and created converters (and was said to be left near starvation). Then he fought the heroes and had to expend some energy (he was growing smaller during the battle)... and after the battle his energies were said to be so low that he would perish.

Does that mean that it should be relevant to a vs forum?
Mighty Galactus can call the attention of Eternity or Even The LT if he so choses. When Odin died, it was barely a blip on the LT's radar. If that puts anything in perspective. Also for perspective, The first thing the AM did in his conquest to destroy the multiverse was imprison the Guardians as they were too dangerous to be left loose in his conquest. And even the multiverse powered Am couldn't kill the Original gaurdians. Of which, ganthet is the ONLY one left.
why are you guys debating if galactus is more powerful than odin?
it's kinda obvious is it not?
-just for inquiring minds: micheal korvac happened upon the technology on galactus' worldship....then he was thus transformed into korvac the machine god 😐
-a lonely galactus feeling the urge for companionship created for himself a son in his image named tyrant. long story short a weakened version of tyrant brushed aside gladiator, jack-of-hearts, ganymede, terrax, morg, silver surfer, and most pertinent to this list, beta ray bill who in his first appearance beat thor down and to prove himself to keep mjolnir, he stalemated him.
at full power, tyrant was owned by galactus, and shrunk down for it.
galactus > odin. stop B.S.ing around

Mmmm...no.
Thanos has gotten one power up -- Death powered him up when she brought him back to life.
The beginning of the THanos series makes mention of a series of life assuring wishes that he granted himself -- but NEVER definitively indicates a power up, nor does it even IMPLY a power up. If anything, it's in reference to his remote control fleet which exists again.
So no, Thanos wasn't more powerful.
And more than that, Galactus wasn't 'very hungry'. He had just fed earlier in that arc.
Galactus also waded through all of Thanos' defensive shielding. Odin's first blast didnt even make Thanos budge.
Not disputing that. But Thanos' blast did much more to Galactus than it did to Odin.
If Galactus wanted to destroy Surfer he would.
:rollseyes:
He at least wanted to stop him, which he proved incapable of. It's not like he enjoys a good battle, like Odin does.
Galactus doesnt defeat and destroy many characters in one blast.
Why not? Clearly Odin does. Galactus did so to Thanos as well, as you mention.
But then again,he doesnt see them as threats,while Odin was defending his home. Huge difference there.
Hah.
Odin was having fun. Galactus was trying to feed, which means it was life or death.
You're right. Huge difference.
Your basing this entirely off of collateral damage. Thats it. Thanos contested Odin's superiority over him,but agreed that Galactus is well above him.
When did he contest Odin's superiority over him in power?
Galactus is well above Odin,and thats as real as it gets.
Then why is the best evidence so unconvincing? Why does it all hinge on their performance against a single character? Why can't you bring in any showings of Galactus that decisively put him above Odin in pure power?
