    Abaddon’s power would be immeasurable. With his blessings from the Chaos Gods AND The mark of Galactus I image the marvel universe would deem him a serious threat. If this even occured, it could result in a war between the 40k universe and the marvel villains VS The marvel heroes. Which in the end, would not be good in any way for the heroes.

    What impact could this have on the WarHammer 40k universe?
    A wholly unpleasant one no doubt. Abaddon is powerful enough without the Power Cosmic. And without Silver Surfers inherant mercy, or indeed any mercy at all. I do wonder if the first thing Abaddon would do is lead Galactus into the Eye of terror and destroy any possible rivals.

    What impact could this have on the Marvel universe?
    Again, a hugely negative one.

    How would this affect the Black legion and possible Black Crusades?
    Abaddon already has a Planet Killer, (That he really should use more…) but the extra power given to him could make then next Black Crusade a whole other type of threat. Instead of one herald, Galactus would have millions.

    Would the power cosmic nullify the blessings of the other Chaos Gods, or would it just be as just another blessing/ from a powerful deity? (Mark of Galactus?)
    Mark of Galactus. Imbues Power Cosmic, model must always march towards nearest enemy model and force a surrender. then the world turns into cheese (Or some such chaotic mess)

    Would this increase Galactus’ influence in the WarHammer 40k universe?
    Well anything would. He doesn’t have any at present.

    Would this increase the warp’s influence in the Marvel universe?
    I do wonder. Would marvel super-powers end up aas warp powered individuals, or something else?

    What would be the reaction of the four Chaos Gods: Tzeentch, Slaanesh, Nurgle, and Khorne?
    Indifference. Its all a game to them. Another player merely makes it more interesting.

    Could this lead to conflict with Galactus?
    Absolutely, but no more than with each other, or any of the other Gods.

    Why does EVERY character from Warhammer 40k look like a freak?

    What makes you say that? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I could say your favourite character looks like a freak, does that make it true? No.

    Most sci-fi characters look like freaks. It can be a complement.

    what do you expect it’s sci fi lol. It’s the same reason why the script of almost every sci fi show is laughable.

    Where you see freak, others might see epic. I for one LOATHE Galactus’ design.

    Abaddon should be in more match-ups on this site. He is an extremely powerful being of Chaos.

    “I for one LOATHE Galactus’ design.”
    I personally would like it if in the main Marvel U, Galactus changed appearance to resemble his movie form in response to the emotions of the human race, and something the Gah Lak Tus was established as his new modus operandi. This would be simple to implement as every race sees Galactus differently, so after all these years he might look different.

    Alright i’ll clarify…I LOVE SCIFI!! And evil/creepy looking characters i can find to be very badass or freaks. Just to me, i think a lot of the 40k characters are freaks…just made to fit the evil stereotype. I think some of the Space Marine guys are just plain cool tho.

    I vote Galactus should look like a Gaint fuzzy bunny or perhaps an eggplant.

    Hey Admin, what program do you use to get that “fade into” effect between Abbadon and Galactus?

    Ha Ha. i know all the graphic designers are going to hate me for saying this (ExpertImp) – But I use Fireworks (NOT Photoshop) for all of the images you find on this site. – Admin

    And I for one loathe both of the designs, never liked the look of Space Marines or Galactus.

    Chaos Gods are an interesting bunch. Nurgle for example is just as likely to add a bloated gut to absorb heavy fire as he is to turn your foot into a particularly painful tentacle… or give you fly wings. Not ones to help you fly, just be really annoying. He’s fun like that.

    As such, the Chaos Guys tend to look a little… Gribbly.

    I’ll try and find some online pics of Abaddons Lieutenants. It was in the Old Chaos Marine codex, three or four guys, all looking various levels of awesome.

    “Just to me, i think a lot of the 40k characters are freaks…just made to fit the evil stereotype.”

    Well, the principal concept of 40k visuals is of a gothic future. This means that everything is made to look more lavish than its necesary. However, you are chastizing an entire universe by the looks of just a few models.

    Most of the grotesque individuals will come from chaos, but the are others that are far more streamlined and certainly not as vulgar.

    First, we have the Tau in their very slick and streamlined look:

    http://www.newboldworld.com/ICG6/ImagesICG6/Aun%20Shi1626.jpg

    Then we have the necrons and their very monotonous appereance:

    Then there is the Orks with their patchwork design:

    Then the Tyranid with their xeno-bug look:

    http://www.mrocznyraj.pl/sklep/images/produkty/wh40k-Tyranid-Broodlord.jpg

    Then the Eldar grace:

    http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/7753/eldar62sz.jpg

    As you can see, there are numerous 40K denizens that are hardly the kind of look you might call “freak”.

    “I’ll try and find some online pics of Abaddons Lieutenants. It was in the Old Chaos Marine codex, three or four guys, all looking various levels of awesome.”

    I have been aching for GW or FW to make these four into a playable selection. I would LOVE for them to be a single HQ choice for Chaos Space Marines, sinse we no longer have Lieutanats, and have them join separate squads.

    Would be nice for them to give bonuses when joining squads with the Icon of the God the Champion follows.

    Meh, I guess thats too creative for them.

    A brutally savage herald of Galactus is nothing new.Guys like Morg and Terrax have both been ruthless killers who enjoy sending worlds to their doom.A Chaos Space Marine would probably enjoy it just a weensy bit more.

    Not just a Chaos marine. Abaddon is the Warmaster of Chaos.

    actually if galactus gave abaddon the power cosmic to make him his new herald, he would probably wash away abbadons memory and strip his “blessings” of chaos;

    hmm if had all that power galactus would defently erasse his memories if not then you could begin to say goodbye to most of the universe
