When his universe set about to end , Galactus was visited by the conscience of his universe , and merging together , Galactus gained the Power Cosmicand was able to travel over into the next iteration of the universe . While Galactus is powerful enough to do basically whatever he wants , he needs to bung on planets in ordination to stay alive . This has made Galactus a major threat to dozens of civilizations , but he feeds out ofnecessity , not maliciousness .
Galactus has also shown that he ’s willing to work with the civilizations on the planet he encounters if potential . This has been made patent by the numerous times he has spared Earth in the past . This unending thirst had always made Galactus serious , but as long as he was willing to operate with masses , he was never that much of a problem . This has caused a few readers , and the Marvel Universe itself , to draw a blank just how absurdly severe Galactus really is , which was brilliantly shown in this recentDoomcomic .
A Fed Galactus Is Practically Unstoppable
