I didn't think Red Skull was that much of a direct physical threat, even for Captain America, let alone for 1st-to-2nd tier mutant demigod.

When we say throw everything he has at Mag's, it was stuff like Sci-fi ray guns, robots, super powered humans and death gas. Nothing worked. It was pretty cool.

drat that only occurred to me now. It was the Skull using his patented Red Dust hidden inside his cigar thing that makes a person face go red and look skull like.* He blew it at Mag's face and I think he just stops it with a magnetic force field at the last second. *= Totally original idea. Nobody show this to the Joker.

I'm really enjoying the idea of the Red Skull and the Joker just hunched over and coughing for a couple of minutes, like they both just swallowed water down the wrong pipe, as the hired muscle stands there awkwardly waiting to see if someone keels over.

To be honest as badass as old Thor vs Galactus is, Thor's really just kind of being a stubborn dick for no reason. Just let him have the planet, who cares.

It's being a gently caress on both ends because IIRC, when Galactus shows up he says that the Earth being dead means it won't sustain him, but he's going to do it anyway as a final gently caress you to Earthlings for them blocking all of his other attempts to eat the planet.

I seem to remember there being a post somewhere that said it was Galactus's way of cheering Thor up, by giving him one last epic battle at the end of the universe.

Isn't there a comic, maybe Fantastic Four: The End, where Galactus calls the Fantastic Four to him and has set up an elaborate, greatest hits style adventure for them to go on because he's dying and just wants to hang out with his only friends one last time?

Nah, The End is just where Galactus shows up out of nowhere to stop the battle everyone is caught up in. Unless there is a later comic that explains that is what he was doing, it wasn't referenced at all.
