That expression makes her look like she's giggling, or someone is tickling her. Very cute.
I had always wondered about the character Galactus but I was never really into comic books, so I looked it up on Wikipedia last year. Apparently he looks like whatever he wants, really; he can change his size at will and appears to be a giant of the same race as the observer. So a human would see a giant human, and a kilraithi would see a giant kilraithi and a norn would see a giant norn and so on...
Apparently his true power is omnipresent and omnecient, however it's being constantly drained by containing a force of absolute destruction, making him mortal but godlike. He eats planets in order to stop the whole universe from dying.
As for his origin, apparently he was the last surviving mortal from the previous universe, and he just happened to be at the spot where everything imploded, and the previous universe's manifestation of life carried him into the new universe where he became a god. I think his name in the previous universe was Stanley or Galen or something... XD
Really interesting character anyway. One of the 'true gods' of the Marvel Universe, along with Infinity, Eternity, and Death.
