HistoryEdit

Little is detailed about Galactus’ life before he arrived to consume the zombie plague infected Earth-2149, however it can be presumed that it followed much the same path as Galactus (Earth-616).

Galactus appears in "classic" form and battles the Marvel Zombies, who have recently consumed the Silver Surfer and acquired portions of his cosmic power. With the help of some advanced technology, they manage to overpower, ultimately defeat and consume Galactus, thus absorbing his powers and becoming his "successors" and later traveling to different planets for sustenance.

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Powers

Galactus possesses the immeasurable Power Cosmic and is one of the most powerful beings in the universe, he has even been referred to as "the most powerful creature in the universe." As such, Galactus is able to employ the limitless cosmic energy within him to produce virtually any effect he desires. Some of the abilities he has displayed are:

  • Size-Alteration: ability to alter the physical size of persons or objects.
  • Molecular Restructuring: ability to physically alter persons or objects through the manipulation of their comprising molecules.
  • Matter Transmutation: ability to directly convert one form of matter into another form of matter. e.g. turning lead into gold.
  • Cosmic Teleportation: ability to teleport beings and objects, even entire galaxies, across space and time.
  • Cosmic Force-Fields: ability to erect virtually empenetrable energy fields.
  • Cosmic Energy Projection: ability to project energy with incalculable force.
  • Interdimensional & Intradimensional Portals: ability to create wormholes between dimensions and within dimensions.
  • Cosmic Telepathy: ability to read or communicate with other minds across universal distances.
  • Cosmic Telekinesis: ability to move virtually unlimited amounts of mass through mental concentration.
  • Cosmic Awareness: ability to sense disturbances or changes within the cosmic ether on a universal scale.
  • Resurrection: ability to raise the dead.
  • Creation: ability to create complex, sentient, biological life-forms from nothing.
  • Soul Manipulation: ability to manipulate the souls of living beings.
  • Recreation: ability to remake dead worlds, including populations, in every detail.
  • Power Bestowal: Galactus' heralds, whom he has endowed with a minuscule fraction of his cosmic power, are able to manipulate matter and energy in ways far beyond human comprehension.
  • Vitakinesis: Galactus is able to heal himself and others from all physical wounds although this may simply be molecular reconstruction.

    Abilities

Galactus, as the oldest known living entity in the universe, arguably possesses the universe's most advanced intellect. Reed Richards has admitted an inability to fully comprehend even the most rudimentary devices found within Galactus' Worldship Taa II. The Worldship itself is a solar system-sized construct that is said to surpass any natural world in beauty and splendor and yet within it's computers is contained knowledge so unfathomable and far reaching it can grant awesome power to those who come into contact with it.

Strength level

Incalculable, when sated Galactus possesses a level of strength beyond the human ability to measure or quantify. Additionally, Galactus can use the Power Cosmic to further enhance his strength to virtually infinite levels.

Weaknesses

Cosmic Hunger: Galactus requires unknown energies obtainable only from a certain type of planets in order to sustain his life. The suitable type of planet need not to be one where life is present, but it must have the potential to support life. When recently sated Galactus is effectively omnipotent, however, the longer he goes without feeding the more his strength, power, and cosmic awareness wane. Indeed, just one month after consuming a suitable planet his power will have already been reduced exponentially, although in such a hungered state his powers are still far beyond mortal comprehension. In recent times Galactus has been known to go without feeding for several months at a time bringing him to the brink of death and reducing his power to such a degree he actually becomes susceptible to direct attacks from superhuman teams such as the Shi'ar Imperial Guard, Avengers and the Fantastic Four even though the outcome remains in doubt. When the universe was still young, Galactus could go without feeding for a century before his hunger weakened him to a significant degree, why the intervals between his feedings has decreased over the millenia is unknown.

ParaphernaliaEdit

Equipment

Galactus often employs his Elemental Converter when devouring planets to help him in the conversion of matter into energy. Although he does not require this device to devour planets and will forego its use in certain scenarios, it makes the conversion of energies more efficient. Galactus also wears a full-body suit of armor constructed from an unknown material of his own design that helps him to regulate and control his personal energy. If he were to remove the armor for an extended period, his vast cosmic energies could run rampant and potentially give him the appearance of a star.

Transportation

Although Galactus is capable of space travel via his own power, he disdains the needless expenditure of power and prefers to travel in starships of his own design. Though Galactus has many different starships in his personal fleet his preferred long range vessel is his sphere-shaped starship (over a mile in diameter) which is capable of trans-light speeds and interdimensional travel. Galactus has even on rare occasions been shown to travel in his solar system-sized Worldship, Taa II.

Weapons

None known
