* ParanoiaFuel: The series is ripe Paranoia Fuel [[FridgeHorror if you think about it too much]]. That cute girl with the glasses you always see ordering lunch at the local cafe? She's a PhysicalGod that is always hungry and is constantly suppressing the urge to ''eat you''. ''You and everybody else''. And she thinks of ''everything'' as food.

* ExtremeOmnivore: Galacta; she lives on Earth, tries to leave the locals in peace, and eats alien invaders and bioweapons. It takes all her willpower to NOT eat the yummy Earth. [[spoiler: And it has gotten even worse since she became pregnant.]]

He doesn't want her or his unborn grandkid to be destroyed.]]
* KirbyDots: Galacta [[http://twitter.com/#!/Gali_girl/status/1873418623 reveals offhandedly]] on her [[CharacterBlog Twitter account]] that mere humans [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm cannot perceive the Power Cosmic where it affects reality]] and blank it out in their minds. She further {{lampshade|Hanging}}s that some people call the visual result "Kirby Dots".
* LastOfHisKind: Subverted, as Galactus is revealed to have a daughter, the titular Galacta, created via [[TrulySingleParent spontaneous generation]], and [[spoiler: she's pregnant]] -- but this was later confirmed to be non-canonical.

She's a PhysicalGod that is always hungry and is constantly suppressing the urge to ''eat you''. ''You and everybody else''. And she thinks of ''everything'' as food.
* PhysicalGod: Unlike Galactus, Galacta is closer to a typical Physical God in terms of power scale since she isn't quite as powerful as her father. [[spoiler:Her unborn child the Tapeworm Cosmic (no, really, again) will probably fit the bill, too.]]
* PlanetEater: Gali has the same cravings her dad has, and is ''capable'' of devouring planets, but she keeps this urge in check by working as a superhero, feeding on malevolent forces of energy (which would be destructive if left unchecked). In between those feedings, she spends a lot of time trying to control her insatiable hunger by eating bacteria, mostly because anything more filling and she might go on a feeding frenzy that would destroy the world. [[spoiler:However, she's pregnant, and her baby has the same cravings even now, while still in her womb.]]
* PregnantBadass: [[spoiler:Galacta]] currently qualifies, technically, although she isn't pregnant in the same way humans are. (It's similar, however.) When her hunger for life energy was increasing to the point that the temptation to consume the Earth became harder than ever to resist, she thought some evil parasite had infected her, and tried to steal the Ultimate Nullifier from her father's ship in an effort to purge it from her (even though the risk of destroying herself in the process was great). When ComicBook/{{Galactus}} stopped her from doing so, she found out that the "parasite" was actually a child she had conceived in [[TrulySingleParent the same method that he had conceived her.]] (She was, in effect, pregnant; the reason for her incredible hunger was simply, she had to eat for two.)
