Would the energy beam of the Death Star not give energy to Galactus, which he needs to survive, ore am i wrong. Possibly? Once he receives such a boost, he'd probably devour the Death Star before its crew has time to fully overcome their shock, but not before they feel absolute terror in their final moments of life. I toughed he only devoured living planets, last time i check, the Death Star is a man made moon. |

Still, how does that prevent Galactus from devouring it if he so chooses, especially when he’s at war with the Empire? |

Do we know if the emperor is powerful enough to mind control a being as big and powerful as Galactus. |

Do we know if the emperor is powerful enough to mind control a being as big and powerful as Galactus. Good question, and it reminds me of something I once saw about Legends Palpatine manipulating the minds of billions of people on Coruscant to make them more complacent while he was biding his time before crowning himself Emperor (though I can't verify at the moment). Nonetheless, I'm guessing the answer is a big fat 'no'. Palpatine may be the most powerful Sith Lord in at least modern galactic history, but at the end of the day, he's still a mortal man. Whereas Galactus is a Lovecraftian cosmic abomination who'd probably mind-rape Sheev if he tried to probe inside his mind, and potentially without even trying no less.
Furthermore, even if it were theoretically possible for Palpatine to mind-control Galactus for even a short while, I don't think he'd do so unless it was in a last-ditch effort. Because Sheev, demented and drunk on the Dark Side as he is already, doesn't have a death wish, nor is he a glutton for hellfire and brimstone before being snuffed out of existence just like the rest of Galactus's victims.

So the emperor is just going to let 1 trillion people die. |

So the emperor is just going to let 1 trillion people die. Well, I mean, I’m not sure what else he can do. Depending on whether he’s away from Coruscant, Sheev may have to begrudgingly make that sacrifice in order to stop Galactus in the long haul. But if he’s on Coruscant with the rest of those one trillion beings who are about to become Galactus’s lunch, he may be desperate enough to try and mind-control him. Which won’t end well for reasons I’ve explained before, but what else can he do other than call in reinforcements that’ll get gobbled up in short order themselves? Though, if he’s given time to prepare a Dark Side ritual to vanquish cosmic beings that do what the Death Star does on a regular basis (meaning destroy planets, albeit not in the same way), maybe he has other options. Even if I think they’re practically guaranteed to not be enough. |

What if Power puff girls replaced the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 1 (1993–1994).

What if James Bond joined Shield as a agent during the events of the first Avengers movie.

Well, S.H.I.E.L.D. could certainly use someone like him—depending on the incarnation in question, I assume (~1960s James Bond probably wouldn’t care as well as his 21st Century counterpart). Although, even a top-notch spy like him would probably need time to get accustomed to aliens, the supernatural, and real-life superheroes that he’ll at least work under the auspices of. Maybe even alongside them, should he get promoted to superhero status. |

Lets say Daniel Craig bond from Skyfall period, both movies where released in 2012, thus a good period for Bond (played by Daniel) to join SCHIELD as a agent. |

‘Phineas And Ferb To The Big Bang Theory’. Oh, what a fuse Sheldon would blow once these two wunderkinds dazzle the world with their ASB-tier intellect and building skills. If someone like Dennis Kim pissed him off to the point of a brief existential crisis on his part, then he’d wind up catatonic when the news cycle gets hijacked by the brothers’ latest rollercoaster or literal time machine.

Would they become humans in this scenario ore would we see the The Big Bang Theory universe as a cartoon version. |
