He's not spanking the Trapster here, or chasing Diablo, he's pounding on entities who are a lot more powerful than he is, and he's out to put as much hurt on 'em as he can. He's got a mad-on that won't quit.<br />I would have preferred, however, that Galactus had bothered to put on a pair of pants that morning, instead of those bicycle shorts, after he got outta bed and decided to go out and eat the Earth. I mean, sometimes I don't feel like putting on pants in the morning either, but we gotta do what we gotta do.<br />M.P.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-78327773396652034392015-08-31T19:19:25.147-04:002015-08-31T19:19:25.147-04:00david, I think part of the reason I like Galactus ...david, I think part of the reason I like Galactus is his dependency on technology, despite the obvious power he wields. He seems to have <a href="http://peerlesspower.blogspot.com/2012/11/close-encounters-of-fatal-kind.html" rel="nofollow">a <i>number</i> of ships</a> at his beck and call, depending on his needs at the time; and there's of course the technology he uses to drain the life force from planets, though he seems able to accomplish that himself when he can't spare the time to tinker. Reed's gambit also doesn't take into account Galactus's ability to summon transportation to him when necessary.<br /><br />I'm definitely with you on his rantings, though. Perhaps the one thing we can count on at Marvel is that, the more an enlightened and aloof being maintains that he or she is above emotional displays, the more likely it is that there's a tantrum on the way.<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-36279699848570448402015-08-31T09:35:44.756-04:002015-08-31T09:35:44.756-04:00Mixed, mixed feeling about this story arc..
First...Mixed, mixed feeling about this story arc..<br /><br />First off, I'm in the crowd of thinking this era of Buscema/Sinnott was the best art ever (next to Kirby) ~ Weak at first, but gradually getting better to surpass even the King. It's of course the time in which I first started collecting, so of course I'm partial..<br /><br />I didn't like Lee's characterization of the Big G at all. I still have yet to comb his first visit, but since when did he need a spaceship..? I originally looked at Galactus as just a god-like being who didn't need a spaceship. Plus with all his comparatively-juvenile rantings against our FF, it just seemed like Galactus wasn't all that Omni-present or as big a threat as Lee/Kirby originally envisioned him. So that's a big disappointment for me here. <br /><br />Loved the great internal art, hated the bare-skinned-knees-and-elbows ranting Big G. And hate to say but the covers weren't all that awe-inspiring or memorable either.david_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00218727673816200051noreply@blogger.com
