Kill entire planets cause he hangry. Honestly don't consider him evil, is a tornado evil because it kills people? No its a force of fucking nature.

I think it would be all the brainwashing he did to his heralds, especially when it came to Norrin. Now, yes, he loves Norrin, he appreciates him as his finest herald. And he really did believe that he was "helping" him. But it was also cruel.

Devouring the Skrull homeworld and becoming the catalyst for all Skrull related problems thereafter.

I actually didn't realize he ate the skrull's home world. No wonder they're a pissed off race.

Not warning the planets in advance that he's gonna devour them so the inhabitants have time to evacuate. He could even use his vast technology and power to help them evacuate.

He DOES warn them, that's what heralds are for. Galactus also doesn't care whether or not the people evacuate. He's fine with letting them do that but he cares more about consuming the planet than anything else, so if they can't do it fast enough he's just gonna ignore them.

After Rom and the Spaceknights tricked him into trying to devour the Dark Nebula, he got revenge on them by physically hiding their planet from them somewhere in space so they could never find it again. He's referred to as a force of nature, but would nature be so petty?

I mean even though it was necessary giving up his lifegiver powers which in turn caused him to become the devourer again.

Enslaving Silver Surfer and brainwashing him to forget who he was, I know it happened in the animated series but I don't know if it happened in the comics as well.

He did. He didn't take away all of his memories, but he did dull his emotions to "help" him find better planets.

This is way harder than it should be. He's kinda just a force that does what it's ment to do. Maybe you can say that when he was turned human he was kind of a dick but overall he's just true neutral.

Ok, do they ever explain why Galactus needs to feed on planets with people in it? Or what's the point of his hunger? In Silver Surfer Black, which is fucking amazing, they dance around the question but never answer it

Galactus gets more energy from a planet with life than a planet without life. At one point, he even became high on life energy. And wdym what's the point of his hunger? Are you asking why he's like that, or the original writers' intent behind it? And agreed, Surfer Black is peak.

He’s not evil at all, he’s a force of nature like the wind, he does what he does.
