In fairness Starbrand beat a Beyonder by dying and releasing the entirety of the Starbrand power which is a huge amount of power, even if it isn't IG level.
The Beyonder's were ludicrously powerful though, I mean the fact that a single one was casually destroying the entire race of Celestials and then three of them killed the abstracts/LT puts them, imo, above PF Vulcan.
So yeah, beats Starbrand but loses against Beyonders.

It was later confirmed that the power Starbrand released when he detonated and killed a Beyonder was enough to "protect or destroy A WORLD":(And that was, per Kevin, the 'unleashed' power of the Starbrand.)
On the subsequent page Kevin reiterates that if he detonates, the EARTH will be destroyed:

😂
READ THE SECOND SCAN, carver. Kevin states that if he detonates again, the EARTH will be destroyed.
Here, I'll even blow it up for you, because I know that clicking those pesky links is such a painstaking process...
The Starbrand's planet-level power was reiterated yet AGAIN in the very same issue:

"Last: reabsorb all that Starbrand energy... So that I don't blow up THE WORLD!"
Mastered his power or not....the ENTIRETY of his power, released, would only destroy a planet.
Doesn't matter how skilled a driver Michael Schumacher was. His car was still only able to produce XYZ amount of power.
Mastering the Starbrand means absolutely NOTHING....because when ALL of it was released, it was planetary level.

The current Starbrand is the Ellis/Hickman Starbrand. Everything that came before New Universal has been done away with. The current Starbrand and everything related to the New Universe franchise has been rebooted.

I thought the Ellis/Hickman version was just the less powerful version from the alternate NU introduced in New Universal. Has the original ever been definitively retconned away? I don't see why it needs to be, since we've seen a number of alternate SBs over the years from different universes.

Full power Starbrand = mid/high herald level.
