“If your life depended on you stepping on an ant hill, you would not hesitate”
DAMMNNNNNNN
So there are ants on other planets besides earth?
@@thedarkstranger963 Maybe, but we are ant sized compared to Galactus.
@@lilsammich8252 And ant sized muthahuggas drove him away from the earth. For such a powerful being, there's been some ants whoopin' that Galactus cosmic ass.
@@lilsammich8252 more like a bacteria rather than ant.
@@thedarkstranger963 How many planets in the universe have as many heroes as Earth in the comics. Comics are Earth centric for relatability. We are the center of power and such. Any other planet without said heroes is a snack for Galactus.
The moment Galactus was introduced by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, that was when Marvel Comics went cosmic.
Big G is even before thanos and darkseid
True
@@subzero3158 He's not before Darksied Though.
@@sfknns Darkseid = feb 1971. Galactus = march = 1966
@@subzero3158 but he's much more powerful than darkseid
“Energy which only a healthy planet can provide.”
Phew he can’t eat ours
Galactus: The Earth is healthy and rich of energy, regardless of humanity's constant sinful mistakes. :)
He tried to over a dozen times lol
Give Galactus the corona virus
Stripey Vibes and NOW HE COMIN FOR FORTNITE OOOOOO
Lol if he comes in the future earth is very unhealthy that time and galactus will just leave like nothing happened
Will all those powers, the only weakness he has is his hunger.
Seems like he's hungry all the time.
@@thedarkstranger963 Can't disagree on that one.
Or the Fantastic Four
Nullifier actually
He’s been sprint jumping too much
Glad galactus is finally getting the spotlight I've loved him for years
And now fortnite wants him cause he big
Now everybody’s gonna know him you know fortnite
@@Supr3me_Dr4ylol maybe but they were pretty clear that he was from a xomic
To be honest I never saw Galactus as a villain but more so as a force of nature. A god who takes no pleasure in destruction and death. It is simply a means to an end. He’s even willing to try and avoid killing. That was the original point of the heralds.
"The Watcher awoke Galactus by interfering"
What if? Trailer: "A watcher must never interfere"
Me: OH NO
me:oh yeah
Me:
yes
YES
This dude needs to come to the MCU. He was given NO love in fantastic 4
He’ll probably appear in a fantastic 4 mcu movie
@Giovanni Balbosa-Mc Intosh all of the Fantastic 4 were done dirty
I’m glad they didn’t because marvel can give him more justice to his character
He must make an appearance in Phase 4. Perhaps an epic multi picture arc similar to Thanos.
wasn't he like a lame cloud of bugs or something?
Imagine Galactus in Phase 4
Maybe they could introduce him in Eternals as the actual reason why they died
Skeleton Crew , yeah I want to see Galactus in the Eternals Movie.
Lawd have mercy I’m sure they could pull it off. Heck they did the most with Thanos. Think about how non comic book fans/ causal fans know him now because of it.
They have to do it right. Galactus would be to me, the most important character they could possibly introduce in the MCU. Much more important than any they have introduced so far.
DNICE41 yes but maybe they will introduce Dr Doom first
"Don't poke the bear"?
Surely the Sleeping Giant quote works better...
his appetizers threw a tooth pick at him. breakfast has been served sir
How about let-sleeping-dogs-lie?
Galactus doesn’t want to hurt people, he just has to eat planets to survive and keep the universe balanced.
This implies Galactus has a conscience, which would put him a step higher than the big businesses of the world...
Silver Surfer at 5:30-
"But there are other planets, other worlds where no intelligent life exists...".
Also Silver Surfer, but one minute later-
"See, try Earth!"
Are we "intelligent"?
Actually he got to earth by mistake,if you read the comics...the watcher actually confused surfer by making earth appear as an asteroid,surfer tried to investigate the area but Galactus appeared soon after anyways
Yup. Look up the god of "gaps". What we think we dont understand, we attribute to higher functioning beings or "gods" @@thesonofdarkness936
"Please don't eat my planet! I'll find empty planets for you to eat instead!"
Embued with power cosmic.
"Hey! Come eat this Earth planet!"
I dont think eating empty planets will fill his appetite. That's why the silver surfer offers him to search for planets with less intelligent life than that of his people like earth. humans.
@EMAN67 (Movies,politics,commentary) ahh thanks for clearing that up!
After so many countless eons of being a Herald of Galactus and being imbued with the power cosmic, one may lose their humanity and think and act like a god like being. So, maybe he wasn't even aware that he has become like the one who steps on ants. He just knew that Galactus needed to feed.
By this point the surfer had been a Herald for longer than the lifespan of some stars. That changes you.
He said a planet were no intelligent life exists
Watch the silver surfer series on Disney+ he forgot everything except that he was the herald of galactus
Kirby brought the Cosmic gods to the Comics. I love him for how grandious his characters were.
Sounds like Stan lee had very little to do with galactus creation; I’m glad to see jack Kirby finally getting his credit after all of these years
He was involved with the early concept of GALACTUS the only thing that Stan wasn't involved in the GALACTUS trilogy was silver surfer that s all Kirby
You should look up Alan Moore's opinion on Stan Lee.
Stan Lee wrote all the dialogue. Stan lee also created the original concept of Galactus
I really hope they make a Galactus movie. Such as the New Black widow movie, Iron man, Etc. Just a movie to explain his origins and stuff.
I want to see galactus in the big screen too he is so cool
CGI isn’t on the level of making someone bigger than our galaxy. That’s gonna take over 3 years.
He appeared through the clouds to the World in The Fantastic Four : The Silver Surfer movie which came out in 2007 , and there is a new query that Thanos was a herald of Galactus.
If that was the truth then Galactus is the next largest antagonist in MCU.
I would have thought that this would have been a episode already.
Love Galactus's Christmas outfit.
Galactus was like the great hunger is upon me ...... but first where is my ugly Christmas sweater.
I'm from Ireland and the colours he's wearing are for the county Mayo and I honestly canNOT stop laughing at it.
@@lamontwaters510 I struggle with the idea of Galactus having a change of clothes. Who does his laundry? Does he have a wardrobe? Does he struggle to get into his pants first thing, catching his foot on a trouser leg? We need answers!
The dialogue between Galactus and Noran always gives me chills! Brilliant writing!
6:15 And BOOM!! just like that surfing was invented 🏄
One of the greatest cosmic entities in the history of cosmic entities. Would be cool to see a fight between Galactus World Eater vs Life Bringer Galactus. Who would win? Or Galactus vs the silver surfer hybrid from MC2 the Anti Galactus.
I believe Lifebringer would win, Although I could be wrong.
Well when he is full its said his power is equal to infinity and eternity
Lifebringer would win because he beat Master Order and Lord Chaos.
Whenever I see or think of galactus, Jack kirby always pops up in my head.
There was also that time Galactus became *friends* with a group of humans who came to his ship and gave him an upgrade, then created his own super team of planets and thoughtforms, and saved the multiverse.
As a young kid I was supposed to do a book report, and I got ahold of a reprint of the fantastic 4 galactic saga. it's epic, sweeping, and frankly adult topic moved me and lit my imagination, I wrote out everything with care and great detail.
My oral book report had the entire class riveted. I looked up each word so I could explain everything to the class, who asked a ton of questions.
my teacher eventually cut me off and the whole class grumbled.
I got a D as a grade because a comic book wasn't a "real book."
I was 9 years old at the time.
Your video brought back a great memory of mine which I regard as a triumph.
A GCPD shirt while making a marvel video it's the reverse of drinking Pepsi out coke cup
Lorenzo Arce 🤣🤣😜👍🏾
@Jordan Farris Agree its like comparing 5 Nights at Freddys vs Freddy Krueger
"Pepsi, Coca Cola glass. I dont give a damn"
@Jordan Farris Deadpool is sure kid friendly.
Who gives a shit both are awesome.
He's available in Marvel Future Fight as the 2nd boss you fight against in Giant Boss Raid; defeating him enables you to acquire biometrics to recruit Silver Surfer
You said it immediately after seeing the thumbnail?
@@awn-k-p-s6799 yes
The Galactus/Silver Surfer story arc always reminded me of a story that would have shown up on the original Star Trek tv series. Kirby & Lee really hit their strive with this 3 issue arc. Marvel comics came into their own and ceased to be throw away fodder for kids.
I really believe that Galactus will be next super villain in the MCU after Thanos.
AGREED! I can’t wait. Been waiting since the first Fantastic Four.
Thanos is no MCU villain when compared to Galactus.
@@laggyboi7932 dr doom would probably be the fantastic four villain for their original movie. That’s if they get one
Doctor doom can beat that boi up
@@martincharles1464 seems like it’s kang now
Anyone else get the sense that over the last few years, Galactus has been much more prevalent in the comics, and has had maybe a bit too many new heralds, being ones that we all know and is almost strange to be his herald (like now with Thor) ...because they know/knew that GALACTUS will be making his MCU debut shortly???
Even before WE heard about even the rumors of Disney buying Fox or the Fox marvel stuff, its like marvel knew it would happen eventually and got people (especially casual comics readers) ready by putting him in more shit and getting everyone more familiar with him!
It wouldn't be a massive surprise, it's a good way to build hype before the characters even in the MCU.
Having a character prevalent in the comics it starts a conversation between fans of "Man wouldn't it be awesome if Galatius is done right by the MCU" add time and a correct time to reveal, it's some clever, long term marketing.
@@SkywardSpork well I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I of course think that that is what they do, kinda like the opposte, pushing down FF and Xmen, to kinda separate themselves from those properties a few years back, especially FF, since all those movies (especially the last one) flopped
I agree, but Thor would be an ideal herald for Galactus. He has the All-Father force, combined with the power Cosmic, might be enough to save the universe.
Ninja Hombrepalito true
@@carlbloke8797 True!😃
So how does Noran go from "No, don't kill people, take me and I'll find planets that don't have people on them" to "Hey, here's Earth with several Billion People for Galactus to eat"?
He doesn't remember being noran rad and if u remember he eventually tried stopping Galactus and got trapped on Earth for a while
Because of a woman he loved.
@@jakgff5885 But Galactus literally said "I won't eat planets with people on them if you find me some planets that don't have people on them" and the Watcher said that Galactus' word is law, so why would he then have his herald go find him planets with people on them? It doesn't make sense.
And he only stopped trying to kill Earth after he was convinced not to. He didn't do it because he felt it was wrong. He had to be convinced that people were worth saving.
If I remember correctly, I think it started with Galactus abiding by the deal but eventually he started to need worlds filled with life and when Silver Surfer wouldn't allow this, Galactus took away his compassion and memories so he'd just find him any world. I don't think it was just "Find me worlds with no life...oh wait, never mind."
Galatcus needs life energy to sustain himself. He really doesn't want to do it but you kind of have to put yourself in his boots for a minute. Would you be willing to strave just so a roach could eat? Or would you clean the kitchen killing the roaches so you could eat?
7:09 this man's don't take holiday breaks or days off nice
4:08 missed opportunity to use the phrase “Don’t wake a sleeping giant” 😪😏
Alright finally!
God damn this is guy is op! How does he lose to anyone?!
Also can we get a history of the living tribunal? And the silver surfer.
Yes!
Grey World anti monitor
A lot of the Marvel current writers are hacks
Grey World agree it’s bs! I hate when they build these characters up to be omnipotent but then continuously portray them in comics ass weak! Doesn’t make sense
Only way he can lose is if he hungry. Galactus must feed.
So Thor is currently Franklin Richards heralds herald
And omnipotentis
@@Stavol2Dual ?
@@skeletoncrew6500 moon girl's comic
I wonder who Thor's herald's herald is. Like just a regular plumber? Or a school librarian? IF I had a secretary at work, could I call that person MY herald?
@@arnoweber9448 noobmAster69
The intro still makes me tingle
Thanks for sharing. One of the only tubers I listen to with a no nonsense way of sharing. Gladly subscribe.
Wonderfully done. As with many, I assume, Galactus always held a special place in my mind-now I know that is because he may as well be real, as with all other characters in the best fiction. I'm interested in two things, however: 1) where does Galactus' hunger come from? And, perhaps more importantly, Jack Kirby said near the beginning of the video that he "went to the Bible" for inspiration for this character. Knowing what I know now about the region in which the early biblical stories took place, I would be extremely interested to learn which Bible story inspired him. The story of the nephilim would be an obvious choice, but something tells me that isn't right...Many thanks for this, well done!
Galactus in the morning:
"Hmm, blue armor is OKaayyy, but how about spicin it up with some pink highlights and some V shaped horns on my helmet. That'll look cool when I'm eatin planets. Is today a short sleeve day? Yeaassss, lets show off these swole guns. That putz Reed Richards won't dream of messin with a short sleeve wearin Galactus, yo."
This is why i love Galactus. He's not a power hungry villain that destroys stuff for fun rather he has a good reason for it. When norrin told him how he will destroy an entire race he just replied with reasons in some sort of desperation that he's just happen to be the way he is and he can't help it. He's right. He's a force of nature and it's what he does for survival.
Having the need to eat planets to survive is a pretty big weakness
Please do a history of The Riddler.
Or Mr Ditkovich from Spider-Man 2 and 3

I hope they introduce him into the MCU, I'd love to see him on the big screen
Gotta love this channel ,it awoke my intresst for comics yet again. Just recently bought an old wolverine comic eritten by frank miller and chris claremont , in a new re-print and also first issue of the new shazam comic series. ^^ looking forward to more fun episodes like these about over epic cosmic villians.
Epic.
Have you done History of Annihilus?
So your telling me that this guy is coming to fortnite
Yes
Yes and I’m in event
Hes been in fortnite for 3 months
Fortnite kids

"For, no matter how many worlds I devour... How many civilizations I destroy... It is my destiny to one day give back to the Universe - Infinitely more than I have ever taken from it. So speaks Galactus!"
Talk about the Heralds of Galactus,we’ve been waiting
Galactus the mighty one.
Yes! Finally! Thank you Variant!
Galactus is trying to get the zero point in the thumb nail-😳
ST_ AURA that’s not the zero point I think not sure
No it’s his chest remember this was made 9 months ago
@@FreshTheMation it was a joke to mick fortnite kids sorry if I annoyed you have a nice day
Well for me it’s night
he's describing a Marvel character wearing a GCPD T shirt
Wait, that’s illegal
Yeah, Who cares?
Finally an epsidoe for one of my favorite Marvel villains Galactus.
Galactus`s powers: *PHENOMENAL, COSMIC POWER!!*
Gosh I love this stuff. It'd be amazing to see in the MCU.
You guys should do a history video for Doctor Octopus please! Y'all probably make the most detailed character info videos I've seen and there's sadly not a lot for Ock. I'd love to see what you'd list for his story arcs and reading recommendations!
It must’ve been so dope to be alive during the era when these comics were releasing.
I’m interested to see how Galactus is going to be handled in the future. I don’t want him to be a smoke Cloud.
I've been waiting for this video for years
9 year olds: mom look it’s that guy from fortnite
Oh! They copied fortnite!😡😡
I play fortnite but I watch a lot storyline vids so I knew who he was
Luis San same it’s just I like that he is in the fortnite storyline just like Batman and marshmellow and other ppl are in there
So true tho
Listen, that's not an actual thing that happens, and I'm tired of people using this comment over and over because they want free likes.
Thanos : being smart and making plans
Galactus : I don't know who or what all I must do is destroy
Varian is a very good program I enjoyed thoroughly the young man that you have telling the stories is very good two thumbs up
I love the wording of the silver surfer, pleading to spare his world. It reads like some ancient myth of a hero, not just a comic book for children
It was the Phoenix Force which saved the remaining lives of the Universe and thus the Sentience of the universe was still around long enough to preserve Galan and merged with him.
Galactus is technically Marvel's Taz the Tasmanian Devil. He whirls around the cosmos and munches planets. Greedy G is OP.
This was a good one thanks!
I think Galactus will be introduced much later. But imagine the CGI oh man!!! Dark eyes surrounded by the cosmos and a small introduction 🤤
"ItS tHe GuY fRoM FoRtNiT."
That's really how it's gonna be when he eventually gets in the mcu sadly
Why doesn’t he just eat the power stone giving him infinite power to feed on?
Well he doesn't just feed on power alone, the essence of a planet has a unique energy signature and is the only thing that satiates him. This is why he prefers feeding on planets that are teeming with life, the life essence of organisms are especially palatable to him and sustain him longer.
I imagine it's like eating protein bars vs actual an steak with mash potatoes
His description for Galactus is the exact same description for Ultron in What If...........
I can't wait to see him in the MCU. Can we get a origin episode for the beyonder, annihilus, molecule man or the high evolutionary sometime soon or in the near future?
Can’t wait for that Heralds of Galactus video
7:08 “and he says all this apparently wearing...his Christmas outfit” 😂😂😂😂😂
I need to know where you get your shirts at bro cause you always rocking them dope ass the ones!
Great video!!
Galactus went from a guy who was willing to sacrifice his own life to save others, to a guy who wouldn't hesitate destroying and consuming entire galaxies full of life, but it's all because of his insatiable hunger, he's a villain by force not by choice.
Not even a villain if you think about it. he's literally just trying to survive. as the video said, he's just REALLY high on the food chain. it really is true that ants are to humans as humans are to Galactus.
Thanos: “oh.. SNAP”
yo epic research. you read out his first appearance and throw up some scans. fantastic stuff
your videos are awesome
The POV in Marvels is so epic.
Will you ever do a history of the rocketeer
AN AMAZING PRESENTATION
Such awesome character
Please do history of new mutants.
No
It’s the guy from FoRtNiTe!!!!
I’m sorry 😂
One of the best issues of Galactus is when he fights the in-betweener and saves the universe...
This was great! Also, You have a book crown. Please work with it! R u the King if Komix?
Forget don't poke the bear. Should've said don't wake the sleeping giant lol
Omg galactus from fortnite got so popular they made him into a villain from marvel
@Colton .W its called sarcasm
@Colton .W true he might be a 4 year old fortnite kid
@Colton .W same
At 5:40 Norrin Rad asks Galactus to find a world with "no intelligent life" after saying even "ants have a right to live", this in response to Galactus comparing his activities to a human stepping on an anthill. Contradiction aside, can G. exist as a vegitarian?
Did you guys ever do the Herald's episode?
Didn’t the power of the Infinity Stones turned Galactus to stone?
Yeah. And Thanos turned Galactus into a perfect Elvis impersonator, who eats peanut butter and banana sandwiches to ease his cosmic hunger for planets.
The power of the Infinity Gems turned Galactus and the rest of the Massive Cosmic Entities into stone, when Nebula held the Infinity Gauntlet. The rest of the MCEs were Death, Stranger, Kronos, Epoch, Mephisto, Order, Chaos, Love, Hate, Ziran & One Above All.
"Scan the stairways"
The mighty GALACTUS himself is my absolute favorite super character.. I'm so awed by his totalness🥇..
Wow finally a history story its been a min
Ironic that I get this recommended when he is in fortnite now lmao.
Ik this was 8 months ago, but holy shit almost 500 likes.
I’m begging that it don’t turn into a “galactus from fortnite?”
Lol
@@playboi_akol8304 he said in fortnite not from fortnite
Because of the stuff you watch
Ye same and thor
9:56 looks like the watcher been eating some planets to.
lol
sometimes I wonder what misery would I had to face if not for this channel, thanks a million!
He was a really great villain in Lego Marvel Super Heroes
Have you covered the history of Doctor Doom?
You didn't even search. But yes he has.
@@user-tf3ch4gd1o I did search, and I couldn't find it, which is why I asked
He didn't actually make one. But in the "How powerful is Dr. Doom" he talks about the history of the character
@@user-tf3ch4gd1o and how am I suppose to know that by searching if there's no video labeled "History or Doctor Doom"? I don't see how simply asking a question is a problem
