2) Think of Reed vs the LT like this:
a)The LT's goal in that comic was to nuke everything in the way
(which would have included Earth) to stop Galactus...
b) Reed's plan; stop the Tribunal and the rest of the cosmics from
nuking Earth...
Aftermath: The Living Tribunal gets the crap nuked out of him and
Earth is spared the Tribunals threat...
The Tribunals plan=failed.
Reeds plan=success!
Reed>>The Living Tribunal in that story arc...
So Reed never battled the LT and won.
That's what I wanted yall to understand.
Btw. The LT didn't get "the crap nuked out of him" lol
The LT's power in combination with the most of the cosmic hierarchy power
Merged ... (making a ball/bomb of energy)
then Reed (unbeknownst to the Cosmics' senses) 😂
shot his canon into That concentration of power (ball/bomb)
This cause a feedback (of their own powers) and bfr'd the Cosmics into other dimensions.
So yea, under those circumstances,
where we have a less than omniscient LT,
(who needs help to off an Alternate Galactus) 😐
who decides to Merged his power with the Abstracts into a ball of energy,
and has said ball of energy to be used against him
with a blast coming from Many miles away by some canon built to kill that Alt G,
yea, then give Reed that constricted scenario and he meets that objective all the time.
Now, although the writer attempted to explain away the
monumental nonsense of this, it still borders on one of the worst
(and historically unrelated) portrayals of the LT.
I still haven't seen this story recognized in any bio to date.
I'm glad about that.

Aftermath: The Living Tribunal told the remaining cosmics good luck, fled that universe like a coward, slammed the door shut, and locked it behind him...
The Living Tribunals plan=fail.
Korvacs plan=success!
Korvac>>The Living Tribunal in that arc...
So Korvac never battled the LT and won.
That's what I wanted yall to understand.
You say Korvac shielded himself from supposed ultimate judgement,
when 1) Korvac didn't know the LT was ever there
2) Korvac never knew he was being attacked
3) I don't know, you don't know who shielded Korvac's world (perhaps Death)
Makes little difference, it was just the local Sun going Nova that was tanked.
Anyway, "ultimate judgement" my ass.
LT didn't strike Korvac once with his own power.
I rather take his "ultimate judgement" in that What IF when he ripped Korvac's entire Universe from the Multiverse to seal it away
in an impenetrable barrier which Korvac himself could not escape.
That silly Sun going Nova garbage was the writer getting the LT out of there,
so Korvac can erase that Universe with the UN since that was the plot.
That's another thing right there:
I can't destroy a single universe > LT? ❌
