Galactus Will make his soon MCU Debut in the upcoming film Fantastic Four: First StepsWhich is pretty grim news for the residents of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Galactus is the Devourer of Worlds, after all, meaning Earth (or any planet) is never truly safe as long as he exists. However, this should not suggest that the MCU is totally doomed as one God – which is secretly introduced in Thor: Love and Thunder – Already proved strong enough to beat him: Amatsu-Mikaboshi aka King Chaos.
At the Marvel Comics event Chaos War By Greg Pak, Fred van Lente and Khoi Pham, Amatsu-Mikaboshi decides that playing the role of a mere god of earth is no longer acceptable, especially considering the nature of his origin. Amatsu-Mikaboshi is actually King Chaos, the manifestation of the void that existed before the formation of the universe, whose existence is the perfect antithesis of eternity. Before there was light, there was only darkness, and that darkness was king Chaos.
King Chaos begins the systematic slaughter of every god across the cosmos, claiming their power as his own, in order to snuff out all life in existence and return the universe to its original void. After killing the entire Greek god pantheon, King Chaos possesses the corpse of Zeus and uses his power to take down Galactus himself. While Amatsu-Mikaboshi was unable to kill Galactus during their first fight, the fact that he was able to take down the Devourer of Worlds with a single blow all but confirms that the Chaos King could put Galactus down permanently.

Amatsu-Mikaboshi made a cameo appearance in 2022 Thor: Love and Thunder
Amatsu-Mikaboshi made a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo appearance in the MCU Thor: Love and Thunder When Thor and the gang traveled to Omnipotence City to seek help from the Council of Godheads. Amatsu-Mikaboshi sat on the council, and while his King Chaos identity is still shrouded by the facade of the Japanese god of death, Marvel Comics fans know who really sat on the council, and what the ‘god’ is really capable of. .
With Galactus about to make his live-action debut, having a character in the MCU who’s proven capable of taking him down is somewhat reassuring, just in case nothing else can do the trick. Of course, if that happened, the Marvel Cinematic Universe would have the unleashed Chaos King to deal with (which is infinitely worse), but at least Galactus wouldn’t be a problem. However, there is an easier way to beat Galactus in the MCU if he steps out of line, because there is another god who has also done this before.

When considering MCU gods who have defeated Galactus in the comics, fans don’t have to look any further than the main roster of the Avengers, as Thor has actually killed Galactus in one blow before. As King Thor, the God of Thunder drains Galactus of his power cosmically, and then hurls Mjolnir through his chest, killing the Devourer of Worlds in an instant. In the MCU, Thor is also technically the rightful king of Asgard by familial succession, and should therefore have access to a comparable level of power, meaning he too is a Galactus-killing god in the MCU.
Although Thor could become powerful enough to kill Galactus in the MCU if he ever needed to, fans haven’t seen the God of Thunder wield that level of power yet, meaning it’s unlikely that the MCU version of Thor would be Able to pull off. Same feat as his Marvel Comics counterpart. However, being a disguised primordial god, Amatsu-Mikaboshi would have no problem downing the Devourer of Worlds, making King Chaos the one god who can definitely beat. Galactus in the MCU.
