Current Larf is definitely not a serious character. In no way does it detract from his overall power level though. Nor is it really anything new, I mean, have you read the one where Larfleeze becomes obsessed with Santa?
I dunno, IMHO Giffen seems to be having too much fun at Larfleeze's expense. He spends three pages gloating about how great he is, then gets his ass handed to him. This has pretty much been the norm in every issue, first by Laord of the Hunt, then by his corps. What happened to Agent Orange? The guy who one shot Atrocitus, not some goon who can barely remember which way is up, and gets his ass kicked by everyone with one leg and a boot.

Well, TBF, Loard is much higher than Atrocitus. Larfleeze seems to be taking on trans/sky father level cosmics. Just look at what Wanderer did to his corps. Her implied power is pretty crazy, IMO.
