Thor or Hercules?

[MajinShenron]

I've been wondering about this match. Both of these are from Greek-Gods. Well, Hercules could of been but decided to be mortal. These characters are incredibly powerful. But I know they are some-what in the same level class of fighting due to reading comics they fight Hulk. They both lost to Hulk, but did not do bad at all.

Personally, I think Thor would take this one. He has defeated that some heroes consider very hard easily. He can also fly which gives him an advantage. And last but not least he has an incredibly powerful hammer, strong enough to injure Godzilla (really, he did injure Godzilla).

[Odin's Lapdog]

er...thor isn't from olympus. Thor if i'm correct is from Asgard.

as for the match, i'm sure it must have been done before. If i remember correctly hercules is actually stronger than thor but with his hammer thor has a greater advantage in actual combat and takes the victory.

[deathshead2]

Its been done alot. Now I would like to see beta ray bill fight Herc.

[Anubis]

Thor's from Asgard not Olympus. Herc is stronger, but Thor is more powerful, which is why he wins in an all out fight. If we're talking hand to hand, no powers whatsoever, then Herc takes it.

[Speedball]

i'm voting fo neither. Ares can own both of them, and just plain more badass.

[Anubis]

Well, Ares would fight dirty, but I doubt he could take either in a fair fight.

[GNR]

I love both.

according to this, thor gets taken out badly...

[KingOfDreams]

I'm inclined to side with Thor if he's allowed to use his powers. And to repeat, Thor is a Norse god, not a Greek god.

[blksuperman2]

Man that's funny. Was that real?

"What monumental insilence!"

[Kurosawa]

If Thor absolutely had to win, he would win. If they're just fighting for fun (and they do that a lot), then it's a tie.

i'd say so

[Guyverjay]

If Thor absolutely had to win, he would win.

Batman/Superman logic strikes again

[Genesis 1.0]

Hand to Hand: Hercules is a better fighter

All out battle: Thor. He's got the flight, the speed, and the weathercontrol and blasts.

[Darthphere]

The Mighty Thor.

[ssj wolverine]

As stated Hercules is better at hand to hand combat but the god of thunder is more powerful and would defeat him.

Scary.

Your knowledge is a lil bent

Herc is a superstrong demi-God of nothing.

Thor has an office as a God,... that of Thunder.

they are in the same strength class but thor wins hands down.

[Elijya]

Man that's funny. Was that real?
yup. Marvel had a couple cartoons in 1966

[Silicon Surfer]

I haven't seen those since they were relatively new. They had several, Captain America, Iron Man, and Namor are the ones I recall at the moment. Ares wouldn't stand a chance against Thor. Zeus himself once said that Thor was as powerful as all the other gods of Olympus combined after he fought Zeus to a standstill during the Trojan War.

[Guyverjay]

1)Thor didn't fight anyone to a standstill, Zeus was trying to make him give up and was hardly expending any effort. Using ONE hand Zeus over powered Thor in a test of strength as easily as I change my socks. Thor was on the floor and beaten.


2) Zeus didn't say that at all. What he did say is

"Verily not all the titans together ever resisted me so strongly, in the days when the cosmos was young, nor all the gods of olympus when they would have toppled me headlong from my throne"

That is the equivalent of Superman saying " He's the toughest foe I've ever faced" which he seems to say every five minutes. Ie it means NOTHING

You really think Thor is more powerful than all the TITANS combined or the entire greek pantheon? LOL

[bkhedr]

i'm voting fo neither. Ares can own both of them, and just plain more badass.

They'd both pwn Ares.

[MajinShenron]

Not really, due to the fact I own both the comic where Hulk beats Hercules and when Thor uses the hammer on Godzilla.

[Anubis]

Oh well, that makes you an expert.

[ang_hulk]

when did thor hit big G?

Godzilla, issue 23.

[TheCorpulent1]

Godzilla's a *****. Thor's taken down Fafnir, Fin Fang Foom, and the Midgard Serpent. Any one of them would hand Godzilla his/her/its ass. :p

As for Ares, not only could Thor and Hercules both beat him, they have both beaten him. Multiple times, I think.

[XwolverineX]

Thor, easily. Hercules shows his inner suckyness in Kingdom Hearts 2.

[3dman27]

Wrong Version Of Hercules Though

Thor couldn't beat Godzilla, and Godzilla gave the Avengers and FF4 much trouble. Yet, they couldn't beat him physically. Want to read the comics?

And response to Kingdom Hearts, thats a Disney Hercules.

[TheCorpulent1]

Not only do I not want to, I'm actively trying to think of a word that fully describes how much I don't...

Nope, nothing's coming to me. :(

[MajinShenron]

So, you dont want to read them yet you say Godzilla is weak? Kind of an ignorant thing to say.

[Darthphere]

Edit

[bkhedr]

Hey does anyone know is Herc is back up to full power?

I know Zues depowered him pre-onslaught, and during Avengers Volume three he mentions to Thor how his "godly power is diminshed"

I've heard no mention of anything beyond that. If the Ares miniseries is in coninuity then I imagine he is back at full power (it would only make sense for Zues to give him back his godly might/immortality)

Anyone know for sure?

[Speedball]

has anyone even read the new Ares Mini?
he's gonna be a member of the Avengers soon. not sure when though.

[jaydawg]

Rumor has it, its gonna be after Civil War.

[Anubis]

I thought they just said he was gonna be on a team, nothing about the Avengers, or has that changed?

[TheCorpulent1]

I've been enjoying the Ares mini-series. Oeming tends to be pretty liberal with power levels, though, so if he and Herc come to blows and he beats Hercules, I wouldn't be surprised. It flies in the face of pretty much every previous fight they've had in Marvel canon, though.
So, you dont want to read them yet you say Godzilla is weak? Kind of an ignorant thing to say.
Blissfully so. You should know a thing or two about that, given that 1) you believe Thor is a Greek god and 2) your entire basis for saying Thor would win this fight is that he hurt Godzilla and Hercules got beat by the Hulk. :)

[XwolverineX]

Wrong Version Of Hercules Though


They're all the same. :o

Ok, I dont know why I said he was a Greek God. Odin would be so upset :( But I dont think you read my statement clearly. I said both of them fought Hulk and Thor seemed to have done better. And I used another example to show Thor's strength by saying he hurt Godzilla.

[TheFalcon]

I think Thor would win.

[Superman \S/]

Thor gets my vote.

[Warhammer]

Thor wins.

[32CAGE]

Thor is more powerful and wins although Hercules is a better fighter.

[TheCorpulent1]

They both ultimately lost to the Hulk more often than not. Thor's won maybe once or twice, and he's lost in fights that were a lot more one-sided than the Hulk's fight with Hercules. I'd say that if Hercules and Thor had the same number of fights against the Hulk, rather than Thor's many and Hercules' one notable one, their records would be about the same. Neither of them seems to be able to outdo the Hulk on brute strength in a straight fistfight, and they're both dumb enough to keep fighting the Hulk on those terms.

[rodhulk]

Thor would take it.

[Vartha]

er...thor isn't from olympus. Thor if i'm correct is from Asgard.

as for the match, i'm sure it must have been done before. If i remember correctly hercules is actually stronger than thor but with his hammer thor has a greater advantage in actual combat and takes the victory.
Thor doesn't need to use his hammer to call on the weather. So I think in a fight with thier powers Thor would win, but, I think Herc would win in a phiscal fight.

[jaydawg]

They're all the same. :o
Which proves once again why you're an idiot. So I suppose X-men: Evolution's version of Wolverine (who can be stopped with one kick in the shin courtesy of Kitty Pride) is the same as the raging killer of the 616 books. :o

[GNR]

Namor single-handedly took down Ares.

[TheCorpulent1]

Everybody has at some point. I justify it by saying an individual battle isn't a war, so Ares can lose those. But really it's just because he sucks. :(
