Earth X Galactus' role was to curtail Celestial population by destroying celestial eggs.

This hickman story is different with respect to the Galactus Seed containing within it an entity that will seek to replace Galactus.

Are they writing this shyte to be correspond to the damn movies? I don't recall Asgard ever being depicted as some sort of safehouse for ancient artifacts and the like.

it's a good read. surprisingly extremely dystopian and pessimistic for a story that appeared pre - September 11th.

We can always hope, I personally expect a great read from this 🙂

Check out his interview from CBR.

"Galactus may be the second most important character in the book over the next six to seven issues. It's definitely a fresh, new look at him and his role in the birth and death of universes," Hickman said. "It's maybe a broader look at what being Galactus means and there's some stuff that we're building towards in issue #603 and #604 that we haven't ever seen with Galactus. I think people are really going to dig it."

Of course they have it. The point is not who has it but who controls it. They HID it in the worldtree and Odin himself confirmed that they don't have the means to look for it.

And, it was only after the fact when SS said the Seed was gone did Galactus know it was lost within the worldtree. It's an impasse which he is more than willing to outlast and outlive all of Asgard. No one controls the Seed. The See is on Earth. By extension, FF #600 confirms the outcome is favorable to Galactus since he knows where the Seed is, and no one can control it.

There's nothing "damning" about it...all of this was already seen and depicted in Mighty Thor.

And this whole "Galactus is scared of the destroyer" idea seems to have run its course. We have Galactus on panel telling Reed to summon him when the time is right. The time is going to be right when Arishem & co come rolling through.

Same guys who torched the destroyer armor. And frankly i can't see Galactus losing to the Celestials since this time, it appears G is defending earth.

They have it but don't "control" it? How does that make any sense? Also he didn't press his attack when Odin busted out the Destroyer Armor, but he's willing to fight the Celestials should they come for the Seed? I have a feeling a massive retcon is coming in terms of the power level of the Celestials in comparison to Skyfathers and Galactus, with the Celestials being powered down. I'm willing to bet if that fight in Thor 300 took place in the coming months, the winner wouldn't be the Celestials.

Most likely no name celestials will a show up.

If not then exitar solos, tiamut solos, scathan solos.

You should try thinking before speaking sometimes.

Exitar has dont anything Galactus cant do, Tiamut the same and dont give me the Fulcrum argument as that will not be used, plus Scathan is from the distant future and Galactus powers dont work the same way as Protege so its speculation the Cosmic muzzle will work on Galactus.

Exitar is more powerful than the entire 4th host celestials, his power dwarfs 6 celestials. He solos.p i hope the celestials stomp galactus

i don't believe earth x is canon, and that was franklin in the armor

if the celestials knew it wasn't big g, outcome was gonna b different

hickman is telling a story again hope its good

i know there's a eternals story being planned, so whatever hickman is writing prolly those eternals writers will tell another story

its the way of things

yes exitar is

and he's alive as was depicted when he showed up in a one off thor story...see many forget that besides ole guy222/arishem 😛

i favor the celestials winning but its in a ff issue and prolly they will b driven away

Odin vs Galactus :

Odin + 2 other Skyfathers vs Arishem

Tiamut vs Arishem

Exitar compared to other Celestials :

What did Big C say that was wrong?

Not only isn't it canon, it even comes with an official disclaimer saying don't trust anything concerning the cosmic hierarchy in that story line and reality :

Quoting :


Note : The deductions x-51 and Kyle made about time travel and the nature of the multiverse must be considered suspect, as their information, respectively, came from equipment supplied by a corrupt Watcher and eyes provided by Mephisto, lord of lies.

Using Odin as a comparison point, Galactus is nowhere near a Celestial in power but I doubt it'll be portrayed that way. Things change, and the Celestial/Odin encounter is arguably the outlier in overall continuity.

I think, given the last few years, that it have been made perfectly clear that the way Galactus is presented in the comics is left entire to each writer and his own agenda. Galactus overall context and other shown appearance isn't really (if all) factored into the storyline.

Fraction's run is clearly something Hickman has acknowledged to at least some extent, I wonder if the Odin/Celestial encounter will be referenced when Galactus/Celestials meet. That will definitely be interesting, I hope Odin doesn't get shafted though. Anyways we'll see how he fares against the Host.

I wonder how much reputation Galactus has left. If he's shown as a peer to the Celestials, will their stock drop or will his raise?

They'd (the Celestials) be dead to me. If a group of them lose to this jobber, they may as well off themselves by jumping off Bifrost or commit Seppuku.
