The concept behind Galactus was simple, Stan Lee came to work one day and told Jack Kirby "Make the Fantastic four fight God." And the rest was history
Taa was Galen's mortal homeworld in the universe that preceeded this one. Galactus is older than the universe he currently resides in and holds no citizenship or ties upon any world in it. Badass.
Galactus uses the ship to carry the collection of items from the planets he has consumed, so that there is something to commemorate each one, rather than leave them forgotten. Additionally, by using the Elemental Converter, which makes the process of consumption more efficient, he does not need to consume another planet as often as he would otherwise.
@@TupocalypseShakur "Hey kid, you hungry? You want a moon or something? No, not a planet. Because you're not going to eat a whole one, you'll just waste it like last time."
Aaaah he really doesn’t make sense when placed with galactus story. Half of the reason he was written in was to trivialize galactus and I don’t care for it.
@@GreaterGrievobeast55 yeah, I like Black Winter as a concept but the way they just ram it into Marvel cosmic hierarchy, conflicting with some pre-existing cosmic entities just left a sour taste to my mouth.
Galactus is actually supposed to eat universes but he limits himself to planets to limit the destruction he causes. In other words, we have never seen Galactus at full power. Oh, and I really hated Black Winter, it was not a unique concept unremarkably executed.
Now I want to see a Transformers reboot with Optimus and Megatron on the same ship searching for a new home. And Megatron wants to conquer every planet they come across and Optimus is like "Don't make me turn this ship around."
My favorite thing about Galactus is that he isn't necessarily a bad guy. Yeah he wants to eat earth, but he needs to live and doesn't want to die. He's no different than humanity cutting down trees to build a house, just at a much larger scale. Plus he sometimes defends the universe, in one comic fighting thanos.
And whenever he gets bumped in the comics the universe usually goes to shit since it allows celestals to over populate and abraxas to run amok. He’s basically an essential predator in the cosmic food chain.
Yeah he's not bad for the sake of being bad, he's a necessary part of the food chain. You wouldn't call lions monsters and try and stop them eating zebras. We are to Galactus what zebra are to lions. Food. And he's so old and a celestial being almost, that eating a planet to him is the human equivalent of eating a vegetable.
Maybe the ship is to conserve energy. And also the reason he doesn't teleport...it makes him hungrier so he flys instead of teleporting. I can walk to work, but if it's raining or gross I take my car.
I believe the ship is his space cuisinart, it allows him to better process the food so that it is more nutritive. He can eat the planets raw but he would need to eat them at a higher rate. Also he made it because he was sad about the first planet he ate or something.
Best Galactus appearance has to be the comic where Santa decides to take the holiday off, resulting in reality being altered such that Galactus is now the bringer of gifts.
@@robertsludock he killed every other dr strange then the 616 amped dr strange reverted everything galatcus did so its not 100% then its either 98 or 99%
The canon of it is very questionable but Marvel DID publish it so, in some universes Galactus has a daughter. Even better, Galactus is technically her mother.
Also Galacta was written in Earth 616, but like one person said she wasn't canon? But one point Marvel was gonna put her on a teambook, which made the book canon, before said book got canceled. They did say her name in the video though, Gali is her name, Galacta is just the alt name.
Imaginary Axis did an excellent breakdown of just how powerful Galactus is, after this, I'd highly recommend it. He even discovered Galactus' most terrifying ability: he can believe it's not butter!
That month thing is so messed up since he used to take thousands of years between meals. Galactus used to be an ancient myth to alien civilizations. Now he's killing a planet every month.
@@notusgodwind4512 dose this mean at the end of the universal cycle gala it’s ended the universe by eating everything casing and being the Big Crunch he is entropy
@user-ry7hm4bl4j I'm not sure. The two instances we've seen he is killed before the end of the universe. And how things are now in comics he not even necessary for the cosmic order
Just because you could walk down the hall. Won't stop you using a rolling chair given the opportunity. Even he can be lazy. Why fly or teleport if someone can just drive you somewhere?
Also it consumes his energy to use his powers. He'd have to eat more often if he burned up his power teleporting or flying under his own power everywhere. It's no different than any battery, the bigger the drain the less time it lasts. It shows that while he must consume worlds to live he is trying to minimize the destruction, so not quite so bad as he could be.
We don't know what galactus's body is made of, so magneto might be able to affect him. But galactus is probably so insanely heavy magneto would pass out before having any noticeable effect
@@d_3634 Thing is, we have zero clue what Galactus even looks like. His form is defined by our human comprehension which can't comprehend his actual form, therefore we see him as a giant man.
Another offering for best Galactus in media- lego marvel heroes. The level for fighting him takes a while, and every minutes theres him going "Ohm Nom Nom Nom"I can still hear it in my head
I still love that Galactus at one point got casually oneshot by Ghostride. Dude just shows up on his bike and uses Penance Stares causing Galactus fall over and cry, then proceeds to drive off like it's Monday and he's late for picking up the kids from school. 0 fucks given that day.
That would be great but I think it would be hard to get Bryan Cranston to do a superhero role, actually scratch that he says he wants to do Mr Sinister
Just because he has the power, doesn't mean he wants to use that power. His spaceship holds his tech and is likely more efficient flying his solar system sized craft than going himself.
he uses his ship to get around so he doesnt expend hardly any energy, sure he could teleport but that would make him hungry sooner, thats why he has a herald so he doesnt even have to go anywhere until they have found a new planet, its all about energy conservation lol
He is roughly the same strenght as galactus. When he shared power with a version from himself from another time he was able to make galactus his herald. And like galactus he just exits the universe when it ends or gets destroyed.
@@InTenZeGamingHD I need to consult Comics Explained for this. I think Franklin has the edge due his reality changing abilities. He can't even think about certain things like he made himself an adult simply by watching a commercial or something.
There's a Surfer comic where he goes to a planet that only had plant life and showing it to Galactus, after having his emotions restored, and the plant life, as Galactus devoured the planet, was evolving sentience in response to being devoured and were expressing their pain and suffering
He have a daughter named Galacta and his favorite food is Twinkie, he like so much that he turn Aunt May as his herald just so she can find him a planet made out of Twinkie
Awesome Video, but all I am thinking is it looks like Karl was hit with some comic nuke and the only place not not bombarded with comic radiation is behind Karl. Keep up the great work.
hes consumed 168 billion+ planets to present, based on the idea that the universe is 14 billion years old. Wow. And he'd have to be basically always on the go due to the vast distance between planets; literal light years between systems. He never gets to rest!
My absolute favorite Galactus story is the What If where Infinity Gauntlet Thanos turned him into Elvis Presley. He still had a powerful hunger, though!
Brilliant Video, perfect timing as well seeing as though I recently finished Lego Marvel Superheroes. Keep the videos coming and I love how you've adapted to quarantine. Just a couple of questions: Who is your favourite superhero and/or villain in any universe? Are the Nova Core people the people from GOTG2? If you had any power from any universe to defeat Galactus what would it be?
The world ship has technology that allows for more efficient conversion and absorption of a planet's energy when he consumes it. It is the difference between a single farmer gathering wheat with a scythe as compared to a combine harvester. He may get enough food to live, but his efforts are greatly amplified with the equipment.
Maybe the World Ship is really quite comfy to travel in, and after consuming a planet, I could imagine that you'd need, or at least like, a bit of a nap to digest it.
The concept behind Galactus was simple, Stan Lee came to work one day and told Jack Kirby "Make the Fantastic four fight God." And the rest was history
I'd just like to appreciate that Galactus, a being that eats everything, was made by a man named Kirby
So Stan Lee pulled a Shin Megami Tensei before Shin Megami Tensei.

He's the one entity who can say 'first' and always be right.
