GA SBP was above Galactus level by that showing and Monarch still toyed with him.
Originally posted by JuntaiIt literally makes NO sense at all.

Heck, even IF GA Prime has the ability to destroy a universe under his own power, he would still have to do such with nothing but fisticuffs+HV... And even for a guy as haxx as Prime, that'd still take a LOOOOOOONG f*cking time, and almost certainly deplete his amp in the process.

Furthermore, Prime's main prerogative after gaining the amp and learning that the multiverse existed, was hopping from earth-to-earth in sure of his native planet -- his "perfect earth", as he called it. Spending the sheer amount of time it would take him to destroy an alternate universe for the lulz completely contradicts his 'goals'.
...Suffice to say: until we get more info to consider, I am certainly not ready to label Prime as a bonafide 'universe-buster', based solely on a single line from the Guidebook entry. As I said, it really doesn't make any sort of sense, and obviously doesn't align with any other canon. /shrug

Maybe destroying earth destroyed the uni?

Is this even the same sbp post flashpoint? I can't keep up anymore what with all these reality alterations.

Oh I'm not doubting that universe-15 was destroyed. As I said above, though: until we get some additional clarification, I think it's a bit early to be dubbing GA Prime as a bonadife universe-buster.
I mean, to destroy an entire universe with the [primarily physical] means at Prime's disposal would take an astronomical amount of time(even for him), given that he'd have to do so planet-by-planet, star-by-star, solar system-by-solar system, galaxy-by-galaxy, etc... Yet we saw him chilling in the Source Wall with Mxy+Annataz, in the very next issue after he had destroyed earth-15.
IOW, there *must* be some sort of extenuating circumstance(s) regarding the demise of universe-15 that have not yet been revealed. Imo.

Why not? People think that the likes of Galactus and Scrier can destroy multiverse because someone said so despite nothing but a bunch of planets being destroyed.
Here it is said clearly that SBP destroyed the whole universe and we are still denying it. Why?

Obviously he punched a lot harder than you're giving him credit for.

Don't be Hulkster Galan. Until it's retconned, SBP destroyed a whole universe.

As I have said multiple times now: I am not denying that universe-15 was destroyed; nor am I denying that GA Prime is the one who destroyed it. I am merely reminding everyone(mainly you, since you've posted this bio in several threads now) that a feat of this magnitude literally makes NO sense at all in regard to the rest Prime's canon history/characterization, and almost certainly has *some* sort of underlying context that has not yet been revealed.
Again, even IF Prime busted the entire universe by himself, he would've had to have destroyed the trillionS upon trillionS of planets/moons/stars/galaxies/etc. one-by-one, as fisticuffs+HV are his only means of accomplishing said destruction... Destruction that would have undoubtedly taken him a LONG f*cking time(his levels of haxx notwithstanding.) Suffice to say: Prime obviously should not be regarded as an 'insta'-universe-buster or whathaveyou, just because of that bio -- there is literally NO evidence to support such a notion.
Heck, given that Prime appeared in the very next issue after he had destroyed earth-15, and made NO mention of having preformed a gargantuan universal feat shortly beforehand, I would be much more inclined to believe the destruction of said earth triggered some sort of chain reaction that destroyed the rest of universe-15. To me, this is a FAR more feasible(and moreover logical) assertion, based on what we do know to be fact. /shrug
tl;dr
Prime...especially the f*ckin Guardian-amped iteration...is haxx enough as it is. There is no reason to try and elevate him to even greater levels of power/haxx, solely because of a single line in a bio entry... Of which is, quite frankly, very ambiguous by itself.
IMHO. srug
