There are few beings in the Marvel Universe more powerful than Galactus And Ghost RiderAs one is a cosmic entity older than the universe itself whose entire purpose is to consume planets, and the other is a demonic powerhouse that has yet to face anyone who poses a genuine threat to it (in its weakest state, no less). Therefore, the prospect of the two fighting each other is more exciting and will stand as Marvel’s ultimate cosmic face-off.
In a release from WonderIt is announced that J. Michael Straczynski will write a series of one-shots, each featuring two unlikely Marvel characters Either together or facing-away. Odd pairings include Doctor Doom and Rocket Raccoon, Captain America and Volstagg, Nick Fury and Fin Fang Foom, and Hulk and Doctor Strange, just to name a few. But the one that stands out the most has to be the one-shot with Galactus and Ghost Rider.
Little is known about Ghost Rider and Galactus’ upcoming one-shot crossover, but the one thing fans do know is arguably the most important detail of all: the two will, in fact, fight each other. As previously mentioned, the one-shots will feature the characters together or face-off, and the distinction is clarified in the title of each. When “&” is used, they will be partners, and when “VS” is used, they will be enemies – and the Galactus and Ghost Rider comic is a “VS”.
Ghost Rider vs Galactus: Who Will Win Marvel’s Most Epic ‘Versus’ Battle?
Both Ghost Rider and Galactus have pulled off feats of nearly incomprehensible power. Galactus constantly consumes entire planets and early wills the power cosmic, giving him the power to turn even mere mortals into cosmic gods with little more than a wave of his hand. Indeed, Galactus is so powerful that almost nothing short of total universal annihilation is enough to kill him (permanently), and his strength reaches beyond just his own universe. Galactus brought the ultimate universe to his knees, he defeated Dormammu in his own realm, and he single-handedly wiped out Annihilus’ Annihilation Wave.
Although Galactus has proven himself to be insanely powerful, the same is true for Ghost Rider. Powered by the spirit of vengeance, Ghost Rider has existed in one form or another since the dawn of human existence, and each boss actually acts as a power dampener in order to keep the spirit in check. In fact, during World War HulkDoctor Strange reveals that Ghost Rider’s true power (without the “Safety“from a boss) is “Boundless“, meaning that every unbelievable feat of power fans have seen from him so far is only a small fraction of what Ghost Rider can unleash.
Galactus vs Ghost Rider could end with a familiar end result
This Marvel Comics Crossover Could Lead to the Creation of a New ‘Cosmic Ghost Rider’
When considering a Galactus/Ghost Rider crossover, fans are inevitably reminded of their most famous one in Thanos winsWhich resulted in Galactus enhancing Ghost Rider with the Cosmic Power and turning him into Cosmic Ghost Rider. If this ‘against’ match ends in a draw or a tie (as many often do), it’s possible that Galactus and Ghost Rider could join forces. Galactus could offer Ghost Rider the power cosmic, allowing him to judge souls across the universe. This could then open the door for a whole new cosmic Ghost Rider, and a truly terrifying alliance.
While it’s possible that Galactus and Ghost Rider could join forces if their fight comes to a draw, it’s also important to remember that the one-shot isn’t an “&”, it’s a “VS”, meaning it’s highly unlikely That the two. Will be together in any sense of the word. And the conclusion leads back to the most pressing question at hand: who will win? At this point, it’s anyone’s fight, but the one thing fans can be sure of is that Galactus vs Ghost Rider will finally settle Marvel’s ultimate cosmic face-off.
