As for Hulk holding up a mountain what STRONGEST said earlier about Hulks strength Augmentation is correct, so there is no need for me to go over that old ground. Fact is DC heroes are way over-pumped.
Then I say that because the Hulk's strength augmentation is based on adrenaline, his body can't pump enough of it for him to lift more than several times his body weight.
I beg to differ. I think that the Hulk could hang with some DC heroes, what about Hulk vs. Batman??? Realistically who should win that?
In a slugfest, the Hulk would win. But if it were the Savage Hulk, Batman would just duck out of sight, wait for him to calm down and revert to Banner, and punch him out.
If DC heroes were powered on lines simmilar to Marvel Hulk could take some of them.
If Superman was powered according to Marvel's class 100 system,
yeah, I agree that the Hulk would beat him. He might give the Hulk trouble due to having more manueverability in mid-air, but he'd still get his clock cleaned.
But this shouldn't even be brought up. You have to argue about how characters are according to their respective companies, not how one company or the other would handle all of them.
You ever heard of the animated DC Universe that was created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm? The Hulk would destroy that version of Superman.
That's hogwash, Hulk can change his strength level with his anger levels, Iron Man is a guy in a super-battlesuit, he can take a few punches, but not a barrage of them.
No, but this still proves that if the Hulk can't any madder, he can't get any stronger either.
Thor is a god for goodness sake.
That means nothing. Being a god doesn't mean you can beat any mortal. Well, at least not in a comic book. Wonder Woman is a demigod, but she still can't seem to beat Superman, who is mortal.
Don't under-estimate Savage Banner, he is slightly tougher than a normal man, he was able to KO 2 guards at the asylum at the assylum where he was held prisoner.
In No Man's Land, Batman took out a number of trained fighters, one at a time. Only one of them even made him break a sweat. Hell, most of them were taken out with one blow. Batman also knows a number of nerve strikes. With them, one could kill with a single blow (as shown in Knightquest) if he or she desires. Batman could also beat the Savage Hulk the same way a hunter or wrestler can beat a crocodile or bear unarmed: by tripping him up and putting him in a hold that both hurts and incapacitates him.
Plus, being "slightly tougher than a normal man" is very suspect. Does that mean that he's tougher than a peak human or just tougher than the average human? In any event, he edges Batman out in strength alone at best. Even then, he's not much stronger. When you factor in the primitiveness of Savage Banner, he's not going to beat somebody like Batman, Captain America, Daredevil, or the Punisher.
Hulk can survive in the vacuum of space, and GL can't really drain Hulk if he is enraged, he would simply replace the lost power, since Hulk's abilities are based on his unlimited strength.
The Hulk can survive in space, but so what? GL can just leave him to float in limbo. It's not like to win a fight, you've got to kill the opposition. But just for fun, GL could attack the Hulk without him being able to fight back. Besides, if the doesn't float into a planetary atmosphere before he inevetably reverts to Banner, he's out of luck.
Your idea of the Hulk replacing his lost gamma rays seems to rely on GL just standing there and waiting for the Hulk to increase his anger after the initial drain. It's gonna be really hard to come back
from being turned into a scrawny scientist.
Besides, a squad of constructs can be attacking and distracting the Hulk from all sides, making the replacement of the gamma even harder.
Surfer has took Hulk punches, but there are issues where the Hulk has knocked Surfer flying.
Being launched is very different from being hurt. Superman launched Doomsday with a punch in the early stages of their first battle, but he still couldn't hurt him until the last few rounds of fighting.
No offense Gimili, but you seem to be playing down the Hulk quite a bit.
No, I am not. I am merely judging him according to how he is portrayed. Simple as that.
