I feel like that last one is more Galactus learning there aint no laws when he's drinking claws.
Or at the very least no pants.

Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

I'm pretty sure that "The battle almost killed him" was about Rom defeating one Queen Mother Deathwing, but it does seem that a dozen+ is able to hold off Galactus will enough to make him decide that it wasn't worth the effort. Anyone familiar with Rom know if that seems reasonable, or if there were some extenuating circumstances that let him defeat something even vaguely in Galactus' tier, or if it was something other than the QMDs that damaged Galactus this much?

I mean, a lot of this story's presentation of Rom seems kind of suss.
Rom is as durable as Galactus and more durable as his World Convertor?
I mean, Rom is weirdly powerful whenever he shows up but this seems like a lot.
I wouldn't say all the same this was a bad run through for Galactus. The dark nebula possessed weird properties and beyond that he wasn't operating at anywhere near full oomph, as noted. He still did stuff like switch out Galador's golden galaxy for another one and what all have you.
So more like a ridiculously good run through for Rom himself, sure.
Agreed. The tone of Rom fits well with the "Lo a cosmic space god beyond all the ken of mere mortals," Galactus build and does his power level pretty well.
But also Rom has to be kind of significant, that's required for the comic. So while Big G does good, Rom also gets a bit of a big old push conceptually.
Man, Rom is in like... rights hell at the moment, right? I could go for some ridiculous space knight robot men stuff.
IDW I think is publishing Rom, which I find sad, because it means Galador and the Space Knights have been getting just the crappiest treatment in Marvel for the last few years (i.e. they got wiped out pretty casually). Which I find sad because man, I liked Rom, and that his story had a no fooling happy ending was pretty great.
