Question
What effect would an Enterprise-D photon torpedo barrage (15 torpedoes) have on the following?

A) Galactus
B) Silver Surfer
C) Superman Prime
D) 1 Celestial
E) Phantom Stranger
F) Mr. Mxyz
G) Green Lantern
H) Surfer's board
I) Living Tribunal

Could the Metrons transport any of the above to a planet to fight?

Answer
Hi John -

15 torpedoes is quite a bit since they are encased anti-matter, so here are my thoughts...

A) Galactus - I'd imagine that would get his attention and could cause him minor system damage and/or contact burns to small areas of his body.

B) Silver Surfer - as tough as he is I gotta believe that that much concentrated anti-matter would cause him severe system trauma and damage that it would take him at least a while to recover from.

C) Superman Prime - Even as big and bad as he is that much concentrated anti-matter should at least give him some injury and force him to take notice.  I doubt it would debilitate him for more than a few minutes though.

D) 1 Celestial - I'd imagine it would cause irritation and some minor surface damage, and that the Celestial would notice

E) Phantom Stranger - He's hard to gage but I'd guess his physical body/manifestation would be obliterated, but he could reconstitute one in a matter of seconds.

F) Mr. M - If caught by surprise the explosion of anti-matter and energy would probably damage his physical body, but his essence would be fine.

G)  Green Lantern - If caught by surprise it would kill him, if he was able to erect a shield, he'd probably get banged around quite a bit, but would be relatively okay.

H) Surfer's Board - 15 torpedoes would probably damage it pretty badly.

I) Living Tribunal - He'd probably have a reaction similar to Galactus.

I think the Metrons could transport the Surfer, Superman Prime, Phantom Stranger, Mr. M and the Surfer's Board, but would have trouble with the rest.

Thanks!

Expertise

I am an expert on the storylines of most DC and Marvel comics particularly the X-Men, Justice League and most Marvel comics of the 70's, 80's and early 90's. The characters with which I am the most familiar are Daredevil, Iron Man, Batman, and the Avengers. I am a rabid Green Lantern fan as well and would put that as one of my favorite things in life! One thing I won't do is estimate the value of a comic book, if that is what you need check out www.comicspriceguide.com

Experience

I have collected comic books for 36 years and have close relatives in the industry who helped shape the direction of comics in the early seventies.
