No. Unless Doom needs a suit composed of entirely of bee-

Doom should team up with Swarm.

You're right. Every author should tell only a single story and then retire. Someone better go tell Hickman to cancel his Avengers run, I don't want to read Fantastic Four through The Avengers.

Yeah, you're right, I picked a really bad way to phrase my problem with it

To me, it's fine when God in Dinosaur Comics is saying that or anyone in Adventure Time because hey that's who those characters are but when it's Galactus? It breaks for me. Howard the Duck does a way better job of being funny while remaining in somewhat in-character with everyone.

Think of it this way: Everyone perceives Galactus differently. The FF expect this portentous bringer of doom, so he talks like that in their mind. SG expects a hungry bro, so he talks like that for her.

Do his twitter posts change depending on who reads them too?

I kind of enjoyed SG but each successive issue made me less and less interested. :shrug: I'm happy people enjoy it and I think it's great she finally has her own book.

What would happen if someone took a photo of Galactus??? Would it look like an anthropomorphic camera in a purple and blue suit?

There's no way you could capture him on film. It'd be like trying to take a picture of the sun at close range.

Pretty sure it's supposed to be in a Lovecraftian monster way so even in a photo your mind wouldn't be able to fully comprehend what you're seeing without freaking out or trying to rationalize.

A drawing is done based on what the person who draw it saw. So it'd be a large man in a dorky horned hat.wearing a kilt.

Like whatever the artist envisioned him as being since the concept of galactus is being processed by a sentient being?

Whatever you think he looks like. It just looks that way to everyone else as well. A 4 year old scrawling on a page finishes and looks down on an apparently photo-realistic image of an impossible, planet-destroying god-thing.

That seems like one of those things that could be either awesome stupid or just plain stupid so I looked up some pictures and it looks like it's definitely the latter.

This is all moot anyway. We've heard from very trustworthy sources on the matter that Galactus was fake anyway.

It's been a long time since I read it, but I think it fell more towards the stupid, stupid side. Lots of tired teenage girl cliches. I'll maybe flip through it after work, see if there's anything gold in there.

That's pretty much it. Galactus, but a teenage girl with daddy issues, and a lot of Warren's made-up sci-fi slang. If that sounds funny or you dig his style, it's fun; if not, it's probably pretty annoying.
