~ Galactus vowing to destroy Earth to get his revenge on marvel heroes after his defeat. |
Galactus is a major antagonist and a boss in the video game Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. He was a powerful and cataclysmic cosmic entity that was consuming the planets to survive and wished to devour main Skrull planet Tarnax IV. Throughout his attempt to consume the top Skrull world, he encountered the team of superheroes, called Ultimate Alliance, who wanted to save the capital of Skrull Empire from him and steal the Muonic Inducer from Galactus. And so the evil creature decided to stop and prevent the marvel heroes from stealing this powerful artefact from him. This version of Galactus is notably much more malevolent and irredeemable than most of his other incarnations.
He was voiced by Gregg Berger.

At dome point of his life, he threatened the planet Zenn-La and recruited its inhabitant Norinn Radd to become his herald Silver Surfer, who searched for the living planets for Galactus to consume. However, at dome unknown point of their history, Surfer betrayed the evil devourer and started helping the marvel heroes against his former master.
