but this a robot not a planet. u think he got alot out of it? thats like an elephant eating 1 peanut lol
he would wanna show of BECAUSE their insects: show them how their weak. i mean if he crush Ultrons armor or vaporize it with a blast that be one of the best power showin ever
I don't see any reason to get anything clarified, it's pretty obvious that the destroyer from the encounter with the Celestials wasn't intenteded as I read the opening post, why? It referes to Odin in full gear not the Destroyer at full power that can not, from my point of view, be viewed as the same.
No it wasn't a impressive feat to drain out the power from Ultron I agree since everyone with a decent energy manipulation can do it, which kinda makes me wonder why you think Galactus would waste energy on destroying Ultron when draining his powercore is that much quicker.
Why do you think Galactus would in any way feel a need to show his power for the Villians since Galactus regards them as insects? It's you that thinks he should have done it in order to show his power, neglecting that the Villians was just as terrified by Galactus snuffing out Ultron "like a candle"
All in all I think you are stretching the case beyond what can be argued for.

i dunno...i jus think it be more Galactus-style. like stomping on a bug instead of using Baygon spray lol
u think big G could of done it if he wanted to? (crush Ultron in his fist (the real Ultron i mean not the clones))
he aint got real physical strenght showings AFAIK
IMHO the Celestials attacked the Destroyer and Uni Mind en masse because their experiments were about to be disrupted, not because the Celestial's lives were threatened
Then he doesn't mean the full powered Destroyer from thor 300 unless you would argue they are the same which from my point of view isn't correct, but Starscream is ofcause, since it's his thread, more then welcome to specify what he meant, but as it stands atm I can't see how you can argue for it being full powered Destroyer.
The same way the Celestials won. Blasting him sufficiantly works in the end. Do I think Galactus can keep taking the punishment? Well he has taken as much as the Destroyer showed it could dish out. (not sure what exactly would happen if the Odin Sword hits him though)
It's not Galactus style to kill/destroy whatever gets infront of him unless it manages to really, really annoy him. He just as often preferes to lock or disable people and then devour the world and then move on. There is multiple examples of this, it's very rare that he, like you suggest, smush what is infront of him.
Throwing IB through a planet isn't a strength feat? but that is beside the point that his heralds can amp their strength as they see fit, Galactus can imo do the same. Hulk has showed iirc that he was capable of damaging adamantium. Galactus can amp himself significantly above Hulks level imo.

I recall a incident where he reanimated himself from total destruction, so I would think so.
Two Celestials managed to wound and bring down the Destroyer by themselves, true it was a combined effort that in the end finished off the Destroyer, but two Celestials was really enough. They could have kept blasting away.
Do I personally think that Galactus can output enough to match atleast one Celestial (which also damaged the Destroyer) yes. Do Galactus based on his well fed showings have Durability equal to that of the Celestials in that encounter? Yes. Hence my reason that I believe that Galactus in the long run will be capable of damaging and in the end destroying the Destroyer, sure it'll be a long tough and nasty battle, lots of energy bolts flying around, lots of transmuting, reality warping, teleporting, telekinese, disintegrations beams etc (you know as a real cosmic battle should be like), but the result will imo be the same as if we threw the Destroyer against a single Celestial.

Galactus has been taken out by T and A. Right there comparing Odin's showing against the entire 4th host makes this loss look pretty pathetic in comparison.
Ok, even if his durability is similar he is still losing some limbs. how does he counter this?
