Gerald easily wins against the Eater of Worlds

WHO WOULD WIN?
Overview
This is a classic two-panel 'Who Would Win?' comparison meme. The top of the meme displays the text 'WHO WOULD WIN?'. The left panel features a large, intimidating cosmic monster named Drakorax, Eater of Worlds, shown holding the entire planet Earth in space, establishing him as an incredibly powerful, world-destroying being. The right panel shows a small, adorable, wide-eyed golden kitten simply called Gerald. The humor comes from the absurd, unstated punchline that the tiny, harmless-looking cat would easily defeat the seemingly unbeatable monster, playing into the popular internet trend of hyping up ordinary cute pets as far more powerful than intimidating fictional antagonists.
