He’s not a villain. He’s not a god. He’s a force of nature.

In this debut episode of the Fandom Unleashed Podcast, we dive into the cosmic legend of Galactus — tracing his origins from the death of the previous universe to his rebirth as the Devourer of Worlds.

We unpack:

• His history in Marvel Comics (and what makes him not a typical bad guy)

• The full range of his god-like powers and his connection to the cosmic hierarchy

• The philosophy behind his hunger — and whether he’s justified in consuming entire civilizations

• Why Franklin Richards may be Galactus’ target in Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four: First Steps

Along the way, your hosts — two comic superfans — break down the lore, compare mythic moments, and share wild predictions about Galactus’ role in the MCU.
