yeah, that's what i was thinking. we've also seen a pretty well powered g need to expend a fair amount of energy just busting through thanos's shields. 😬
Honsetly that arc isnt the best one to judge G on..........(he was nearly killed by a nuclear arsenal iirc). the whole thing was ridiculous.

oh, i realize that. that's why i brought up so many of his other battles. i'm just saying based on even g's best feats--throwing away the black celestial arc for reasons i mentioned already--i still can't see him clearing this.
^IMO this talk about him not having enough energy is pretty unfounded. G hd a continuous battle with tyrant for thousands of years iirc and so if we take him at his best he shouldnt be gassing by the end of the guantlet. Further imo the toughest guy on this list would be Odin(bar JLA 1million) and i honsestly dont see him as person who would pose THAT much of a problem to galactus. how do u think odin would do against a celestial?(actually weve seen how he do) because according to kubiks power ranking galactus is at least of a comparable level (actually ranked above them). Further even if we use an arc where galactus was probly portrayed at his worst ever, (where he fights thanos) galactus still had a better showing against a shared opponenet (thanos). Now the G in this thread would be FAR above that level considering the extremely good meal he would have had at the beginning.
Moreover weve seen recently in annihilation what Gs firepower can do when he really lets lose (oneshotting a watcher who are at least skyfather level and supposedly indestructible). At the energy level he would be at in this thread hed be monstrous.

You act as though that was the first time we've seen Big G weak for some reason. That is usually the case with him for an assortment of reasons. Nothing new there. Is fight with Thanos wasn't hardly is lowest showing when you consider.... Thing toppling him lol.

In most low showings,g starts out weak. Its different when in this case he was supposedly nourished and then depletes his energy breaching a friggin forcefield. Then we have him brushing off supernovas but almost getting killed by nukes. The whole arc was poorly written and filled with PIS.
also when he got toppled by thing he wasnt at all hurt by him. he just got pushed off a ledge unexpectedly. Not the best of showings certainly but it hardly tells us anything about G in regards to power level........but nukes?cmon even the surfer could brush that off easily.

I also find it rather fun that when he one shots thanos forcefields he depletes "vital Energy" yet the second after that he is capable of delivering numerous energy blast towards Hunger that actually makes it initially withdraw before it adapts.
Originally posted by UtrigitaIt was Galactus (in some form and shape), in the act iirc it was stated that Franklin believed himself to be Galactus and thus became Galactus ore something like that.
It was Franklin Richards,
who thought he was Galactus, but was not in any way but dress code.
Galactus was still sustaining Reality in his natural state,
since that's what happened to the real Galactus in that arc, courtesy of Reed.
Again, the writer clearly pointed out, through the mouth of X-51,
that had the Celestials known that was Franky instead of Galactus,
they would've killed em. But fortunately for Franky,
they thought he was Galactus, which they couldn't kill,
for fear of collapsing reality.
Originally posted by leonidasi agree that the black celestial arc WAS canon, but i think we've discussed this before--i tend not to use that feat because his hunger had been tampered with. g wasn't in his right mind.
Originally posted by leonidascould he replicate the feat if he tried to do so? maybe, but again, if he could, at anytime, simply start devouring EVERYTHING, why bother simply feeding on planets? he should never be weakened because he could always just start absorbing everything, or if not everything, enough until he's hungry.
If Galactus dies, Eternity/Infinity die,
if Eternity/Infinity die, Galactus will have nothing left to feed on ... and die as well.
Unless of course Byrne's vision of Galactus' purpose comes to fruition,
thus making Galactus the next creator of the Marvel Universe,
by using the same energies he fed on that were the reality.
Beyond that good friend,
for the sake of story telling,
Galactus has to feed with limitations in the average showing.
Originally posted by leonidaslike i said--maybe he could duplicate the feat if he chose, but i tend to throw that arc out when discussing galactus because i don't really know just what the the celestial's tampering did.
What the arc proved,
is that Galactus' storage capacity for energy is boundless/infinite.
(he also seems to already contain infinite energy,
proven when he returned to his natural state in 616
and became a Star that would radiate energy forver)
Galactus is the one that stops himself after one planet btw,
that's all he needs to stay in functioning conditions,
yet, we know he can absorb more,
even throwing out the 'Black Celestial' arc we know this is true.

Why? To be honest, Ego has a long history of poor showings despite his high standing, and unlike some of the other combatants for whom it is debateable if Galactus can/will turn into batteries, Galactus has already tried to consume Ego, and might have done it if Thor hadn't driven him off.
