Odin/Thor vs Galactus

I'm torn. I honestly believe that Galactus belongs at the top of his tier, but they keep writing him into jelly! It really sucks.

And, anybody who can be honest, must admit that Odin has been written waaay above his original position. He is fast becoming "The Boss", like it or not. Odin is the "World Breaker Hulk" of the Skyfathers / Elder Gods.

I take the 5th.

👆

Although he originally was "The Boss," that was fixed, but now the Odin-Lust is returning stronger than ever and once again, he's turning back into the "The Boss."

I don't know about that. Odin was getting some pretty heavy feats even back in the 90s then.

As far as I see, the status quo regarding the All-Father has remained pretty much the same since the Silver Age days.

Indeed.

Odin's always been getting great feats and if anything he's been taken down a notch.

Only thing is, Galactus has greater feats still 🙂

^I wouldn't say that he's been taken down a notch. Except for the Celestials fight maybe, but it's neither here nor there.

Your threads are something Kieth.

"Odin with the Odinsword, destroyer, norns, vs Galactus who's just fed...oh and Odin gets Thor too I guess."

Why are all the fanboys up in roar that Galactus, a single being who serves a universal role, should be beating up a mortal skyfather who is one amongst hundreds? Odin doesn't serve much of a purpose and shouldn't be as powerful as Galactus anyway

father and son, imo

He has feats under his own power that rival some of Galactus', though.

I certainly think that Galactus is both more powerful than Odin and more "important" than he is, but I never felt that Galactus' stature in the universe should always dictate his power level. To that end, I think Odin could give Galactus a fight (which he did, imo, even if said fight was going to inevitably go to Galactus by the end, anyway)

Giving him (Odin) the Destroyer Armor and a universal scale weapon helps to close that gap.

what would thor contribute to his team?

Galactus wins, it will be a fight, unlike their last encounter.

thor could sit back and charge his best god blast or repeatedly throw mjolnir as hard as possible at him while odin (provided with his best offensive and defensive weapons) does all the hard work.

edit* maybe galactus is waaay more powerful and it is truly impossible, but it's not a total blowout

it would depend entirely on g's level. at the level he was at during the odin fight, i'm completely with you (and rage)--team would take him out. look at the damage thor did with just a single strike in the recent battle. a godblast while g was in tp battle may have been enough to really tip the scales even earlier than they were tipped in that arc.

they were tipped? in odin's favor?

edit: all I saw thor do was crack G's helmet and get picked up by SS while stunned. people always say he busted through G's head, but the art doesnt really show that. G's scream could have been motivated by his tp battle with odin.

The rest of your post is merely rehashing of the same points we've heard before in this debate countless times, so not going to bother addressing it.

Well, yeah. Didn't you see Galactus in agony from Odin's snoring?

Galactus wins. The guys just stalemated the Other and Scrier by himself. That's more than Odin and Thor bring to the table. I will say that hoping into the Destroyer is the only way Odin stands any sort of chance against Galactus.

Already happened in the Thor Annual. The GB being amped by 2 other heralds in this case. No physical effect. None whatsoever.

There has never been a godblast that looked like that. Some lightning maybe, but it's always been a direct beam of power shot from Mjolnir. Not a spread out lightning blast like that one. It's ballsy to call it a G-blast, and there isn't enough proof to call it one in my opinion.

Had it been one, so be it. But it's fairly clear that it wasn't.

nor was it "aimed" at anyone in particular, but rather sent outwards to all 3.

looks more like super lightning, however the narration does sound like a god blast *shrugs*
