10 Characters Who Have Defeated Galactus
He may eat planets for breakfast, but he isn't invincible.
Comics are full of extraordinary characters with unbelievable powers - some being stronger than others - and there are some that are a lot stronger than everyone else. Names like Thanos, The Living Tribunal, Eternity, and The One Above All are some of those that stand out among the rest.
But out of all the creations within the glossy pages of Marvel Comics, Stan “The Man” Lee considered Galactus to be the strongest being in the cosmos. Given the fact he’s the size of Godzilla floating around in space, it makes a lot of sense that Mr. Excelsior dubbed him the GOAT.
This supreme cosmic being was born out of the Big Bang and has a serious addiction for eating planets. Armed with godlike powers, giant death machines, and chromed out surfer bros, it's hard to imagine Galactus getting knocked down, let alone having the crap kicked out of him.
However difficult it may be to believe, Galactus has taken some serious hits over the years from some surprising foes. Besides the Silver Surfer, here are 10 of Marvel's finest that have wiped the floor with The Devourer of Worlds.
10. The Beyonder
The Beyonder definitely lives up to his name as his powers are well beyond that of Galactus’ - so much so in fact that the Great Destroyer isn't interested in a one-on-one with the battle royale fanatic.
During the original Secret Wars event, both heroes and villains were teleported to a place called Battleworld where they would partake in a Hunger Games-style match for the pure amusement of the one they call The Beyonder. This did not bode well with these unwilling participants, among whom were the likes of the Destroyer of Worlds and one Doctor Victor Von Doom.
They are arguably two of Marvel’s most powerful beings, so it makes sense they’d team up to stop this next level entity that has the power to warp everyone to his own personal cosmic warrior coliseum.
The Beyonder defeats these two as if they were nothing. He even hits Galactus so hard it results in a solid knockout, sending him back to the planet below like a sad rag doll.
