Abraxas isn't gone, he's always there he got rewrote when the Ultimate Nullifier was used to bring everything back to normal. "

There is no proof to that statement and no one in Marvel Universe said it.  "

First off, to clarify the world is round comment, I was refering to before Columbus (and anyway, in Columbus's time Spain believed the world was round, but many other countries didn't).     "

That is a misconception. There is widespread evidence that the people in the middle ages knew the Earth was round.  As for this debate, I really don't see what's the problem. Galactus feeds because he has to. If he doesn't, the universe dies. It has been stated numerous occasions that he bears no malice to any living being who stands in his way, that it is simply his nature. "

Really?

  After that everything was back to normal. "

Who cares? Gone or not, the point that Galactus is important to the universe is still reinforced. "

 " @box turtle said:  It is really offensive that you compare Galactus to god.  God can create--Galactus can only destroy.  God created the world perfectly, BTW, its only people that corrupted it.  Galactus is just the form of corruption that makes the world bad. "
 
Which "god" are you talking about? The christian "god"? funny, how that "god" murdered 99.99% of his own world in his own book. Galactus is capable of creating life just as he has the ability to destroy it, much like many of the gods in the many different religions through human history.

" @box turtle:   While I found this topic interesting and drawn in, I was just as frustrated as I saw your (for a lack of a better word) dumb a$$ comments.   Granted, your unreasonable responses forced the other forum members to pull out some amazing answers and rebuttals, yet it was painful to have to read your remarks as a fellow sentient being. I joined as a member only so that I can say, (at the risk of being moderated) you "box turtle" are a dumb a$$. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but somehow along the way, you were proven  irrefutably wrong by multiple people from just as many third party sources. Typically, an opinion can not be proven right or wrong, but your answers and remarks were so ignorant and absurd that your opinion as a human became irrelevant.   Its ok to be wrong. "

Can't justify killing that many distinct innocent beings to sustain a life, especially in a universe where boundaries of possibility are so loose and fluid. Justice would demand that the villain Galactus be destroyed, the villain Abraxas be destroyed, and whoever follows after Abraxas be destroyed as well. Being old or powerful doesn't liberate the wicked from the demands of justice. Gosh.

No, not anymore anyway. As I was explaining in another thread, Galactus has been, if anything, more heroic lately, even helping the FF defeat the Skrulls, and saving Reed Richards from the Celestials.

This

In terms of the narrative he functions as the antagonist - but more often than not it isn't due to anything malicious; the guy needs to eat. If he doesn't we're talking about creation folding in itself and more often than not when the Universe is about to be destroyed Galactus is on the front lines to defend it. If it wasn't for him the Cancerverse would have hammered through 616's defenses and taken over, same with the Mad Celestials & ect.

Not sure why people keep yammering on about the threat of Abraxas when we've got a number of duties Galactus finds himself working. As far as we know Abraxas doesn't exist as he traditionally did - now Galactus simply needs to eat or everyone dies in 616 (and seemingly reboot the universe when the time comes).

Galactus is only evil when he acts malicious towards his food. Otherwise, he's pure neutral.

No, everybody needs to eat. He shouldn't be different.

Yesno

Galactus is a force of nature. He must exist to keep away a deadlier force. He despises what he must do, but after billions of years he has learned to put emotions aside, anf do what he must.

btw, being galactus was forces on him, he didn't start that way.

He a villian, but he isn't evil.. If he doesn't consume he'll die and if he dies everything else dies too and abraxas will be unleashed.. Galactus himself said he doesn't support killing for no reason

He just want to make his Grandma happy ;(

So, in order for galatus to survive, does he need to devour inhabited planets? If not, i would assume him a villian and as malicious as he could always decide to devour planets from uninhabited solar systems.

If he does, than it's simply a matter of nature. Galactus is as the spider to the fly, and theres really nothing to be done about it.

I alway question however, why does he want earth so badly? Wouldn't he, like all predetors, decide instead to choose a weaker prey?

No he just picks the wrong planets and he is hungry I mean if you where as bug as him what would you eat it's not his fault he was born that way like we where born to eat hamburgers and other food with tons of bacteria on it he was made to eat plants with tons of peole on it and aliens ect ... so in my opinion no

Galactus is necessary for the Universe if he doesn't feed on planets Celestials will overpopulate the Universe. Eternity even stated how important Galactus is to the universe.
