meh, you COULD be right in theory, but for purposes of the forum he's still an alternate version. he's officially stated to be galactus of earth 8810. of far more importance though is the fact that his hunger was very specifically tampered with by maybe the most powerful of the celestials, so the feat is meaningless anyway you look at it. correct me if i'm wrong, but, essentially all he did was create a massive black hole anyway, right? and he was basically/seemingly comatose while the whole thing was happening? over time he simply gained so much mass as he absorbed material that he affected spacetime around him. creating a black hole that was going to take....well, a LONNNGGGG a$$ time to absorb a universe has never seemed that impressive to me anyway. /shrug wiping out galaxies while weakened, his battle with scrier, stalemating agamotto in his realm and beating mephisto in his are all more impressive to me, among many of his other feats.
