If he can, then everyone except Batman will survive.

yup..if i'm not mistaken..he even help to shield some other people..

really???i'm not really sure..it's been a long time..

I dont recall what happened exactly either, but I recall Annihilus being drained of his reserves to survive and Nova teleporting in for the kill. I cant remember where he was or what he was doing during it though.

Nova wasn't in the point blank explosion like Anni was.

i just check..it shows the blast reaching him..and the next thing he is beside annihilus and ready to fight..didn't say he teleport or anything..it shows him shielding phyla-vell..annihilus say Novas survive the blast..

You can clearly see by the artwork he wasn't close to the point blank explosion like Anni was... then he teleports right next to him after it.

not totally sure.. but he seems to be on the outskirts of the explosions reach not point blank like anni was.

Me and Dmills discussed this the other day, Annihilus took the blast at point blank range, Nova and co were a light year away. The story is made to make you believe that they died as they couldn't survive the blast.

I looked at it last night. I think they took some of the blast as that's what Annihilus says just not as much as Annihilus tanked.

Though it would be rather strange that Annihilus having taken the blast is weakened and Nova doing the same is fine.

I agree with this and by the way, people are question quan about glads surviving this blast... well, he survived something similar. The guy was hit in the face by a solar system blast that was so powerful that once he contained it (yes gladiator contained a solar system blast), it created a star the size of our sun and he didn't suffer not a scratch on his body.

So there shouldn't be a reason to dispute him surviving it... thanos would also survive it unfazed but as much as I love the hulk, I can't see him surviving.

I don't see why Henshaw would die from this blast. His body might be destroyed, but his consciousness shouldn't be effected.

1. Henshaw with rings-He survived a galaxy destroying blast with no rings. I'm sure he would survive with shields up.
2. Fortress Eradicator-No
3. Superman saving L.L.-Yes. He took a smack from the AM.
4. Surfer-Yes. He survived Crunch energy, he can survive Galactus.
5. King Thor-Yes
6. SMP- Of Course. He lived thru a universe exploding in his face.
7. Thanos without shields-No
7a. Thanos with best shielding-Yes
8. Juggs-Yes
9. Current Hulk-No
10. Onslaught-Yes
11. Darkseid-Yes. He did it already in cross over.
12. Highfather-Probably the same as DS.
13. Taikon-Don't know who this is. If it's Takion, yes. He survived Ares with God wave which would be like a full powered Galactus.
14. Glads-Maybe. Not familiar with this one too much.
15. Batman -Hell no.

the watcher was far away to..and he died from it..so i just assume that the blast is still powerful even if u're not at point blank..but thats probably a weak ass watcher..

Is there anything in the OP that suggests that the question is one of bodily destruction?

He was killed by the detonation of Warworld AND the Yellow Central Battery. I'd put that above Galactus's blast.

I feel like big G's blast is far greater than that. It ended the war and disintegrated a watcher among billions of others. The blast from sc corps isn't even comparable imo.

Why not? It was contained by the GLC (A LOT of GLs though), but it managed to nearly kill the Anti-Monitor. I don't see Galactus's blast doing the same.

As I recall Henshaw wanted to die, so he must have dropped the ring shields, and let himself go(not using his own molecular control to brace),yet he still wasnt totally disintegrated by a galaxy buster

They all die a terrible, terrible death.

I don't remember Annihilus getting hit by the blast, but it's been a while since I've read Annihilation. Wasn't the Cosmic Control Plot Device still in his possesion at the time?

Yes, but it didn't help that's the reason Annihilus was weakened to the point of Nova having a chance against him. Annihilus even states how it killed everyone else around him.

He had the Quantum Bands as well from what I can remember.

Looking at the scan right now, his emitted in quantum energy all over. Seems like the Q bands quantum shield protected him from that blast..

In regards to Nova, it looked like he ported out just before the blast using the tech that Blastaar gave em...

Based on that a Watcher was killed by the impact, I believe it's fair to assume that the wave combined with it not losing momentum didn't lose power as it traveled either. (atleast not within the first 3 solar systems)

Correct, Nova avoided the blast and Annie tanked it with the bands and his own power reserves, using up the band's juice and depleting his own reserves to the point he was defenseless when Nova turned him inside out.

That storyline was great, all the subplots came toghether really well at the end.

wish the T.I. came together so well

I don't recall Galactus' blast packing THAT much of a wallop... But hey, it's been a while since I've read Annihilation. /shrug

The HMR blast swept a galaxy clean. The WW blast and the HMR blast were pretty much as destructive as each other.

^ Don't think I've ever seen that, but I believe ya.

Either way, Galactus' blast certainly wasn't "far greater" than the detonation of War World. They were apparently equal.

Wasn't it destroyed or just wiped clean of life? Both are incredibly impressive, but destruction implies a higher order or power.

I don't remember, so let's just say destroyed.

@Omega Vision

Keep in mind he did this while being near starving. It's damn impressive.

Anyway, Thanos says that Galactus wiped the galaxy clean with his Annihilation buster.

Originally posted by Black bolt z

that's within the electromagnetic spectrum. Anything not in that range and they are next to useless. Magic, Psionics, Darkforce, exotic energy (like whatever Dr Spectrum from the Squadron Supreme uses), etc.. ignore the bands.

Is Galactus' Power Cosmic within the electromagnetic spectrum? If no, that's why the Bands had no control over them.

Agreed. Point of impact should always be greater.

Originally posted by quanchi112

According to the comic the annihilation wave from Galactus encompassed three star systems and wasn't slowing down, in short from the moment Galactus released it and until it emcompassed three star system it didn't lose momentum, therefor there is from my perspective no reason to assume that Annihilus was hit and was drastically weakened while Nova was also hit and was fin, the power lost can't have been that great. It simply doesn't add up, unless Nova teleported away before it struck.

Care to prove it was more powerful when it initially was released?

Originally posted by quanchi112
Speculation. Fact.Omni-direction means all around.Compared to ow much energy he released the amount of energy that would have hit annihilus is not very much.Using the Q bands he could have directed a good portion of what would have hit him away from himself.
