Who could Stop the Celestials from Judgeing Earth

If the Celestials Decided to Judge againist Earth who Could Stop them Really.?Really the only Power that might repel them could be the Molecule Man.But I dont belive that Owen could defeat all the Celestials or one now that his Power has been well reduced.The power of Galactus comes to mind and the Ultimate Nullifier but I doubt Galactus would fight on Earths behalf.Besides a Battle like would Destroy Earth and That would also be like Putting a Pork Chop in Front of a Starving Lion.Galactus would probaley Try to Eat Earth, really only Hope might be The Watcher he does seem to be Fond of Earth and has no Love for the Celestials.The Infinity Gaultlet could Drive them away or Kill them but that Presents a Universal problem in the Wrong Hands.Maybe the Star Brand if Someone could get it but really it does not look Good for Earth.Maybe Doom or Richards could come up with a Plan,but I would not count on it.So how could the Celestials be Defeated and Driven from Earth RPG People what are your Thoughts on this Issue.Oh yeah the Asgardians Tried to Beat them it did not go so Well the Earthly Gods dont Have the Power the Celestials Have so that Plan is out Your Thoughts on this.

The Starbrand could easily drive off the Celestials (The Living Tribunal was reluctant to battle its possessor and considering he exceeds Eternity in power the Starbrand would easily match the Celestials). Uatu wouldn't try and drive them off and doesn't have the power to (he couldn't handle Galactus after all) even if he did try, and yes Owen's power levels have been screwed from when after the Secret Wars he could take on Eternity and win.

Considering the levels of power that would be unleashed in any battle where the opposition had the actual might to take on all of the Celelstials, it would hopefully NOT take place in our solar system or even our galaxy... lest the battle itself make the entire idea of judging Earth a moot point.

There really is no way to stop the Celestials from judging Earth. So, that leaves us with making sure that they judge in our favour. As this has happened before, we should be able to reproduce the results!

The Celestials are hardly the end all be all out there and they've been 'stopped' on more than one occaision.

-The Eternals could probably make it happen
-The Asgardians pulled it off before as well, so some other Pantheon of Gods could probably step up and make things too much of a headache for the Celestials
- The Phoenix Force was shown to be sufficient during the Judgment War in X-Factor, so unleashing that bad girl on them will probably drive them back
-If the Sentry really does possess the power of Tenthousand Exploding Suns, then that tells me it'll probably give the Celestials a hard time

Honestly, i think Galactus is a bigger problem.

*blinks* Since when are any of those enough to affect the Celestials? When the Eternals attempted to challenge the Celestials one shot to kill Zuras and the Uni-Mind was toast, the Asgardian's couldn't win or even prove more than a minor inconvenience when animating the Destroyer (and all the earth's pantheons were given a clear warning to stay out of the way or have all their dimensional access routes to earth permanently closed), and the Judgement War was more of a fragment of the Phoenix Force and all it did was destroy The Hand of Judgement as they exhausted themselves and really was little more than a test the fifth Host supplied to determine if they were worthy of continuing by showing that they could unite in the face of a world-threatening threat.

Galactus is only the more obvious threat because his nature requires him to feed on living worlds and must do so frequently (especially when you consider on the cosmic scale for a 15 billion year old organism it's almost as if he never has time to do anything else). Outside of the Beyonder and Pre-butchering Molecule Man about the only time we see anyone anyone challenge the Celestials it's in a What-if. Prime continuity the closest we've seen anyone come to defeating a Celestial was Thor when he got inside Exitar and attempted to stop it from cleansing that one planet and even then he was just a minor delay (and no way to know for sure if it wasn't just some kind of challenge arranged for him in a fabricated setting similar to a Danger Room and never really at risk at all).

I agree. The Eternals got wrecked. And the Destroyer armour was invested with a portion of the power of EVERY Skyfather from Earth's pantheons in it's construction... and "only" animated by the collective souls of the Asgardians, so...

There simply is no good way to combat the Celestials. Besides, look at the unrivalled potential they instilled in humankind. If any race is worthy, its humanity... which has staked its claim and held it against entire intergalatic empires. No way we are going to be found not worthy. And in fact, that is the precedent set in former Celestials judgements, so we're golden.

I still thought it was funny when the Beyonder took Boom Boom to that alien world to watch him lay the smack down on the Celestials.

That was pretty funny, since you see the Celestials as these aloof entities against which none of their experiments or nearly any entity below the Big Four (Death, Eternity, Oblivion, and Infinity) could stand. Then *BOOM* up pops the Beyonder to smack them around and give them a bit of a humbling 'there's always someone bigger' lesson that they could use. Although since we don't know what the point is of their genetic experiments other than they seem to intentionally install DNA that leads to considerable evolutionary advancement perhaps being unable to evolve and change themselves they're trying to evolve the next generation or learn how to capture that quality for themselves.

At least until the fifth Host, and we've no idea how many tests go by before they leave you alone. They did though judge against Earth due to the High Evolutionary's success in the what-if for the Evolutionary Wars (although by the time that they noticed normal humanity had evolved to the point they were able to rival Eternity in power and easily destroyed Arishem which sent the other Celestials running in presumed terror). Hard to know what kind of criteria that they judge by or what it takes to satisfy them, although I think Gaeia must know considering she was instrumental in creating the Young Gods and presenting them as suitable examples of mankind's being able to meet their goals. So apparently how you 'defeat' them is by proving worthy at which point they go away.

I'm not sure though if humanity had 'unrivaled potential', the 'normal' skrulls might have had the same potential but the deviant ones with their starting powers wiped out the normals before we could find out. Looking at the backstory on Earth the Earth Deviants almost did the same thing several times and only Celestial intervention gave normal humans a chance to reach the point that they're at now. So perhaps the only difference between normal humanity and normal skrullians was the skrullians didn't get Celestial intervention to rescue them like 'we' did (perhaps because once they were a dead-end they abandoned the experiment, much like they did Thane Ector's people).

The Etenals were Toasted and The Asgardian /Odin/Destroyer Melted to Slag.The Celestials have only been Stopped by the Infinity Gaultlet and by the Beyonder.Loved it when the Beyonder Kicked their Arses.I personally Dislike the Celestials a Whole Heap,but that is my Personal Dislike.I belive Galactus could Devour a Celestial he did in a Alternate Universe when he Devoured the Dreaming Celestial.But Galactus is a Cure that is worse then the Disease.The Celestials are nearly Unbeatable end of Story.
