[up] Using it will only invite misuse, especially when it is so borderline.

But again, the definition says that a Planet Eater is okay for this trope.

I don't know why it's there, but it's there, so Galactus is apparently an example, even if his motivations don't ft at all.

Since the Thanos pic is winning anyway, is this debate about whether or not Galactus is an example even relevant?

Like I said, just because it says that it's ok, doesn't mean that Galactus is an example. If he was, he would be properly listed as one on the page a long time ago. It's possible for a Planet Eater to conquer the galaxy just by threatening others to comply. Same with Nukes. The threat comes from having them, not using them.

[up][up] Well, if we conclude that Galactus is not a good example, then we should edit the description at the top of the trope, because it all but spells out that he is one. That's ok, descriptions sometimes need updating, no big deal.

That one looks awesome.

[up][up]Didn't that one lose the crowner?

[up] Right now it's at 0, with 6 yeas and 6 nays. The other is the leader, but I changed my vote to [tdown] because it really is too dark at wiki size.

The uploader one still works.

This is ready to call. The brightened version of the winner is up, potholed, and tagged. Probably could use a caption, but I don't have anything right now.

Either that [up] or something from his comic book self, like "You address omnipotence. Tread carefully."

[up] I was just reading over his page for other inspirations.

Everything I came up with was just way too complex.

That caption is up and the tag adjusted; requesting closure.
