No. Morlun and his kin can drain the life-force of any biological life-form. They just prefer Totems because they provide a far richer energy reserve. Morlun himself has described it as the difference between eating really good food (Totems) and poor quality food (non-Totems).
So yes, while he prefers not to feed on non-Totems he can do so if he chooses.
As I understand it Spiderman injected himself with radioactive fluid so that when Morlun tried to drain his power he poisoned himself because the life-force was contaminated. Basically you have to trick him into absorbing the "harmful" energy like how Spiderman did. If he doesn't absorb the radiation he's unaffected.
How he treats one other cosmic type character in an alternate universe without us seeing how strong that version of the character is.
Morlun is absolutely stronger than Tombstone. But put him up against a proper cosmic character with cosmic style feats like Silver Surfer and I'm going to back the cosmic character 100% of the time.
As I explained previously Morlun's "vulnerablilty to radioactivity" requires him to be somehow tricked into absorbing it (like how Spiderman injected himself with radioactive fluid, thus contaminating his life-force). If he doesn't absorb it, radioactivity isn't really a problem for him.
Exactly. And even with prep the plan he came up with was highly risky. He injected himself with the radioactive fluid and then basically stood there thinking "I hope Morlun catches up before this stuff kills me."Originally Posted by master of read

I'm pretty sure that Morlun still has a vulnerability to like, 99% of the powers of your average cosmic character. Like, tearing adamantium is nice and all, but can he resist having his blood transmuted into marshmallow fluff?
This is true. The real threat behind the Inheritors was more that they could traverse the multiverse seemingly at will (the Web of Life) and they would come back from death in an instant (because of their clone factory).
For the purposes of Rumbles, the first death is the KO. And with that in mind, the overall threat is greatly reduced.
(I still love that Tombstone's essentially been evicted out of his own thread so that we can talk about Morlun vs. cosmics. You're small scale, Lonnie! This is the big leagues!)
