Originally posted by rotiarthe's right, LT isnt the spectre. there's never been any mention of toaa backing him up or feeding him his power. he was made with power and dominion over the omniverse to balance all the opposing forces within it. the power level inconsistencies you cited are just that, inconsistant writing. since the LT is omnipotent, it's difficult to properly write him into the stories.
Read your own quote...you said Lt gets no backing whatsoever from toaa
LT would stomp the celestial
toaa would stomp LT

i agree. i think the point most people are making which i agree with is that LT is to TOAA would be like herald silver surfer is to galactus. LT was empowered the moment of his creation with crazy ass powers and tasked to do TOAA's will but does not constantly draw power from TOAA. similar to how surfer was created from norrin radd and empowered once with cosmic powers by galactus and tasked to find planets.
