What's the most powerful alien race in fiction?

Don't matter, Rambo can handle anything.

If Superman is any indication I'd say Kryptonians.

Mo Fuckin Yodas.

The Q....the can do literally anything

I also was going to say the Q.

Humans because we always fuckin win for some reason or another. And we are aliens.

The Q.

Duh.

Edit: oh evil, uh I don't know.

They're evil sometimes... even if a Q is entirely oblivious to it.

Q from star trek

God

What does God need with a Starship?

Do people still talk about Tribbles anymore? When I was a kid, everyone was always on about Tribbles.

I'm torn. I guess I'll have to go with the Ancient Ones. Cthulhu, Azathoth, Yog Sothoth. These are beings that no man can ever comprehend, much less combat. They live between the spheres of reality. They are conquerors of entire dimensions. The only thing even gods can do to them is put them to sleep, or banish them for a little while. Hell, Nyarlathotep, their messenger, will drive you insane just seeing him. Even a few Shoggoths can strip a planet clean fairly quickly.

Just the dreams of Cthulhu will drive people to the nut house. HIS DREAMS. Duders asleep, and still driving people crazy.

Being a Warhammer 40K fan, though, I gotta say, Tyranids are not to be underestimated. Those little bastards are fierce. And there are HUNDREDS OFTRILLIONS of them. Nothing makes an Adeptus Astartes flee battle. Not Orks, not Eldar, Not Chaos, Not Tau. But of all the enemies of the Emperor of the Golden Throne, Tyranids come the closest.

Yes this.

I'm going to go with the Aliens from the "Alien" series of movies. If you go into the science of them they are one of the most perfect killing species in the cosmos. Acid for blood, sneaky as hell, and vicious!

Q's race

Celestials from Marvel

Beyonder's race from Marvel

DC old gods

These guys manipulate reality on a massive scale, I could fathom why people think Kryptonians or Saiyans stands a chance.

I love you. And Ewoks. Don't fuck with the Ewoks.

I love you too, but I refuse to be affiliated with that Ewok statement. They don't even have a planet bro.

Yes this.

If you really think about it, what about the aliens who are in possession of these guy's galaxies? And so on.

But yeah, Lovecraftian False Gods/Old Gods/whatever you want to call them probably take the cake here.

Whatever Q is.

The Continuum is without a doubt the most powerful. Good call.

Assuming it just continues to scale up and up and up, which can't be proven >.<

Well, it's the assumption one would make, since we had a galaxy the size of a marble in our world, right?

The Zerg!

Saiyans.

Lrrr of the planet Omicron Persei 8!

Weeping Angles, Tribbles, Q, Zerg, Protoss, Wookies, Jawas, Borg, and Reapers.

The Terran Empire from the Star Trek mirror universe. Until the Klingon-Cardassian alliance took them down... and turned them into slaves... so... Klingassians?

@Samael2138: Like you I was going to go with a lovecraftian god, specifically Cthulhu.

But if I remember correctly wasn't Cthulhu defeated when the hero of the story rams a 19th century steam ship into his face putting Cthulhu into a coma? I don't think anything should be considered most powerful when it can be defeated with 100 year old tech.

I'm going to have to go with the alien from the end of MiB, good call on that @skittles I never would have thought of that.

As Quoted from The Call of Cthulhu, in Johansen's written account, after crashing The Alert into the head of Cthulhu, it bursts with "a slushy nastiness as of a cloven sunfish"- only to immediately begin reforming.".

But, as with most of Lovecraft's work, the details are rather ambiguous. It could very well be the dying words of a raving lunatic. Or a hallucination. Or maybe just what it says...

And, Cthulhu isn't even really one of the Old Ones. Quoted from The Dunwich Horror, "Great Cthulhu is Their cousin, yet can he spy Them only dimly."

The Consu from John Scalzi's books I'd guess, encased their planet in a Dyson Sphere, have the most advanced technology in the series, and I say it again: Dyson Sphere! Also they look like "giant, blade-armed stingrays".

Time Lords seem pretty intense.

And everything and everyone in the ME3 Synthesis Ending. Knowledge of countless galactic civilizations should help.

Orks

• outnumber all the other races (except maybe Tyranids)
• they get bigger and smarter the more they fight
• their culture is all about fighting and war
• they reproduce by spores and release countless of them when they die
• they produce their own ecosystem and food web
• they can change how things work if enough of them believe it

1. Are Gods considered an alien race?
2. Can comic book characters factor in this equation?

If both 1. and 2. conditions are met:

• The One-Above-All

The Saiyans

This fucker right here.

If it had landed anywhere else on earth it would've taken over... seriously, just a drop of The Things blood is capable of making people become infected. They are Necromorphs... ON STEROIDS!!!

F YOU!!! Now I have to rewatch it! The thing is my fav sci fi horror movie and certainly one of best moveies ever !

Mork, that dudes finger was deadly.

Time lords...

Just think about what could happen, if The Doctor was evil.

Q defo

I wouldn't say Time Lords - seeing as they were all wiped out by one of their own.

Celestials are worth being frightened of. Necromorphs, Xenomorphs and the alien from The Thing aren't evil in their design, but are ruthless killing machines and possibly very capable of wiping out entire planets. Also Predator - but not if you're a woman. Or a child. Or defenseless. Just don't fuck with them if you value your head.
