Continuing our Marvel vs. DC series, we’ve decided to pit the two titans of these comic book universes. I’m talking about limitless super strength. I’m talking about nigh invincibility. Yes, fanboys and fangirls, I am talking about the Hulk versus Superman, the Irradiated One versus the Man of Steel. I am talking a battle that could potentially leave our planet in pieces, collateral damage like we’ve never beheld.
Again, for the noobs, here is the breakdown on strengths and weaknesses (emphasis on strength):
SUPERMAN
Strengths: Supercharged by our yellow sun and armed with a staunch moral code, Kal-El, the Last Son of Krypton, can fly at near the speed of light, shoot heat blasts from his eyes, and freeze stuff with his breath. He also x-ray and microscopic vision and super-hearing. Eclipsing all that, however, is the Man of Steel’s invincibility and strength. In his current incarnation, Superman is strong enough to hurl mountains, withstand nuclear blasts, fly into the sun unscathed, and survive in the vacuum of outer space without oxygen.
Weaknesses: Kryptonite is Superman’s primary weakness, as it subjects him to pain and nausea and neutralizes his superhuman abilities. Prolonged exposure to the radioactive stone will kill the Man of Steel. Loss of yellow sunlight has also been known to neutralize his abilities but not kill him.
THE HULK
Strengths: Filled with gamma radiation, the Green One possesses strength, durability, endurance, and healing that increases with his temper. It has been said there is literally no limit to his power potential, as he has withstood impacts that split whole planets, temperatures comparable to the Sun’s core, and nuclear explosions. He can leap across continents or into orbit, move at superspeed, resist psychic control, see astral forms, and home in on his place of creation in New Mexico. In his human form, he possesses one of Earth’s most brilliant minds.
Weaknesses: Anything that reverses the anger, terror, or grief that causes Banner to turn into the Hulk will change him back into Banner. His love interest, Betty Ross, has been known to cause these reversals. The unpredictability and uncontrollability of the Hulk’s transformations can also render him helpless at crucial moments. Also, some have succeeded in siphoning the gamma radiation out the Hulk’s body, thus reducing him to helpless Bruce Banner.
So now it’s your turn. Vote on who would win below. Tell us why in the comments below.

The Hulk would win and here’s why.
going toe to toe, both are seemingly invincible. both have superhuman strength. Superman has heat vision, freezing breath and super speed … none of which will matter in a fight against the Hulk. the Hulk can do the super jump and withstand pretty much any kind of blast depending on how mad he is. in a straight-up, put up your dukes, fight to the finish it will come down to a battle of wills and since the Hulk is fueled by his rage I give him the edge.
if Superman, can read some poetry, sing lullabyes, tell funny jokes, or do the Riverdance and somehow change the Hulk back into Banner, Banner would have enough sense to get some kryptonite and it’s a done deal anyway.
@ClassesnCareers SUPERMAN BABY,HAVE YOU SEEN TOM WELLING ! WOW
#Superman vs. The #Hulk: Who Would Win? http://www.classesandcareers.com/college...
All i have to say is have you seen Planet Hulk? All the Marvel superheros were so scared of thei guy that they sent him to another planet because he was (is) so powerful. This is the same guy that beat onslaught and the Maestro. I must admit it was the Professor Hulk, whoo is his strongest iteration I must add who beat the Maestro. Even though I keep hearing people say that Superman is stronger (yet to be seen) Superman has never held up half the planet like the Hulk has. I agree to have these two fight it would probably last a really long time. Supermans speed has nothing to do with this fight because if it does, why din’t supes use his speed when Doomsday killed him. And we all know that the Hulk is much stronger than Doomsday. At least we admit that the two most powerful super heroes ever, are Superman and The Hulk. If Marvel and DC ever did battle all the Hulk and Superman would have to do is wait until it was their turn because they would rip through everyone else easily.
finally ive been waiting for this
Superman wins 100%
lets see hulk is strong but it will take him a while for him to get strong enough to defeat superman
superman can just not fight the hulk and bye bye hulk
he turns back into bruce
Superman is on another level than hulk
and there is also an antidote for the hulk to calm down superman could just get that
but really superman would destroy the hulk no doubt
I agree with lilrico. Superman is already at his strongest. Unlike the hulk, who, t his starting strength gets hurt by freakin wolverine. Now, yes, Hulk has held up part of the planet. Would you like to know why superman hasn’t? Maybe its because he isn’t a retard like the hulk. The hulk is like a stupid version of superman. He’s strong, but he has no head. Keep in mind, this is Hulk. Not Prof. Hulk, not red hulk, or gray hulk. Just the regular green guy. Oh, by the way Tiny, how the heck is Banner supposed to have kryptonite when, A. there is none in his universe, and B., he just transformed from being the hulk, so he’ll be lucky if he is still even clothed? You completely disregarded superman’s head powers. His ice breath would at least freeze hulk for a few seconds. That’s all supes would need to chuck him into space. And superspeed does count for something when fighting the hulk, if you have super-strength and can fly too! And superman did use his super-speed when he faught doomsday. How can you know he didn’t? The frames in the comic actually show a brown and red blur to the onlookers. Oh, and are we allowing technology?
I honestly hope you all know about superman’s fortress of solitude. Where he keeps his phantom zone gun. With it he can send his enemies to a pocket dimension, never to return unless he wants them to. Honestly, what could the hulk do to super strength and intelligence?
All of you hulk fans forget one thing,superman holds himself in check out of respect for life.he refuses to take a life.So say the hulk hurt or killed someone superman loves what would happen then,imagine if superman got truly angry,he has unlimited power he could draw from the sun,if he lost control he would destroy the hulk.Superman’s full power has never been shown or explored.imagine him in a rage like the hulk,he would mop the planet with the hulk.That would be a good plot to put into a comic or movie,it would be a clash of the two most physically powerful beings in the superhero universe.
Ok, if all Supes has to do is wait for Hulk to change back to banner, then all the Hulk has to do is find some kryptonite, right? Let’s keep it even. I dn’t recall the Hulk being a killer either. Neither the Hulk nor Superman has ever really used their full power, if they did everyone they fought would be deceased.
Luke, if you want to go with intelligence, I don’t think you want Superman to fight The Professor Hulk, need I say more? The Prof would already know all he would need was the kryptonite to defeat him, right?
We all know that the Hulk is a grappler and a bruiser, no martial arts here, just a raw beatdown attitude, as he gets madder he gets stronger; unlike Superman who does tire out in a long fight. Just look at how tired Superman got when he fought Doomsday and Darkseid.
What about superman quickly tossing Hulk into space? He would not die, but he would get calm. I mean, he’s floating around in space. He might revert back into banner, and then, hulk’s instantly toast. Also, there is the phantom zone projector. That would probably get rid of hulk. Also, superman is pretty fast, faster than hulk. Imagine what the flash coud do to the hulk if he had superman’s strength. Well, slow him down a bit, and give him the abiity to fly, and you’ve got Clark. The hulk would be swinging his powerful fists like two sledgehammers, while supes easiy dodges around them with his superspeed, landing powerful blows to hulk’s head and chest. Eventualy throwing hulk into the sun, or a blackhole or something.
btw, just because proffesor hulk is smart doesn’t mean he’ll know about kryptonite. Especially as there is none in his universe.
Luke, if it was that easy Superman would have done that to Doomsday, right? If people are saying that the Hulk and Doomsday are almost equal in power, I think not, The Hulk is stronger, I digress, Superman could have exerted those traits in his fight with Doomsday, but he didn’t. So why would he all of a sudden do that when he fights the Hulk. Past battles depict a lot about how a person fights someone who’s really powerful. Also take another look at the Hulks powers again, he can stand heat as intense as the core of the sun. In a fight in the past the Hulk backhanded Supes and knocked him to Jupiter, so I guess it all depends on who’s writing the story. Switching topics for a sec: in the the crossover mag there was a race between Quicksilver and the Flash and the first race Flash destroyed him; Quicksilver learned about the speed force in DC’s Universe; remember there is no speed force in Marvel’s universe. Once, QS tapped into the “speed force” he was just as fast and a little bit quicker than the Flash. The Flash came to Marvel’s universe and it was no contest QS dusted him. We all know that for some reason DC makes it’s hero’s so much stronger because of their universe but Marvel’s hero’s adapted and came on level or rose above. Your move!
Don’t forget intelligence will help out the Prof Hulk in more ways than one. Prof Hulk is the strongest Hulk so that will pose serious issues for Superman. I do admit that if Superman and The Hulk banded together no one in the universe Marvel or DC would be able to stop them. Look at Planet Hulk and you’ll see what I mean!
first, when did we start using proffesor hulk? Well, I suppose that’s fine, I’ll just use Composite superman then. Composite superman will destroy Proffesor hulk. He has all of the powers of superman, and most of the legion of superheroes powers. This means he is three times stronger than superman, can shrink, grow, shoot lightning bolts, have power over magnetism, stretch any part of his body, shapeshift, have telepathy, invisibility, can consume anything, phase through solid matter, inflate into a large ball, the ability to make things super-heavy or super-light, can generate heat and light, can morph into three people, has x-ray vision that can see through lead, AND has a 12th level intelligence. (phew) Now I KNOW, a smarter version of the hulk will never be ale to defeat him. If you really want to use proffesor hulk, that is. We could always go back to regular superman vs regular hulk, where it is less of a curbstomp in superman’s favor. You can have no argument against CS. What will P hulk do, break one of his bones? Oh wait, he can stretch any part of his body. He is three times stronger than supes, and thanks too his 12th level intelligent, is as smart, or nearly as smart, if not smarter than P hulk.
CS also has no weakness to kryptonite. Btw, yes, QS can beat flash, but only when he’s in his universe. If it was anywhere else, where they oth get all their powers and abilities, Flash wins every time. Also, flash is awesome andpeople like him, and quicksilver is an arrogant jerk who got beat by spiderman before. Spider-man! One of the weakest heroes in marvel, if you take his obscene popularity out of the mix.
Well, since Prof Hulk is one of the iterations of the Hulk, it is a viable opponent. Composite Superman would be a nice opponent for Prof Hulk. I’m not adding in any extra powers from other hero’s in Marvel, gotta keep it on thwe Hulk vs Superman with their own powers nothing borrowed! Never forget that no matter what the madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets. He always seems to rise to the level of his opponent, hence The Maestro and Onslaught. And what happens when the Hulk ties composite Superman in an knot or something (just fodder for the argument).
Luke,
QS beat Flash when he came to Marvel’s universe, minus the speed force! I agree head to head Flash wins, but, you have to take into account in DC’s universe there is the speed force and QS matched him step for step once he got the speed force down, and he beat him head up in Marvel’s universe. Without the “speedforce” advantage Flash is toast.
Also, never said the Pietro was a hell of a fighter, which he is not. I agree, being that fast and letting Spidey beat you, real lame.
Let me bring up Superboy-Prime. He is an example of what Superman can do when he does not hold back, have any moral compass, and is strictly driven by rage and revenge. Prime, has killed several (possibly 47) Green Lanterns, and countless other DC Super Heroes and Villians. The ENTIRE DC Universe knows that Prime will and has the power to destroy planets and every person that he comes across, bar none. So if that is what tiny Superboy-Prime can do, imagine what Superman can do, if he decides to let loose.
Know in World War Hulk, we see Hulk, not as a idiot who can not think or reason, and just smashes, but one that has average intelligence. Strength and other powers on par with Superman( for the Marvel universe). Hulk, proves himself as a wise strategist throughout the series, and even as a prudent leader. Hulk destroys creatures that no one else could destroy on that planet, proving that he is in the class of powers of Superman.
trying to decide who would win Hulk or Superman is like trying to decide Chicago or New York pizza. But in this example Superman could win “IF” he takes Superboy Primes’s attitude and just rips the Hulk in half before things get out of hand. the Hulk will win if Superman goes his usual boyscout route and takes his time. WW Hulk shows that Hulk will destroy his enemy, while Superman has yet to show he is willing to tap into his potential serial killer side and tear people a new one.
So maybe the question should be who would win Superboy-Prime or Hulk?
SuperBoy_Prime of course. Always bet on the deranged serial killer, they seem to always win. And he seems to be the only person in either Dc or Marvel to actually have TRUE INVULNERBILITY, and he really uses it.
What about Lobo vs the Hulk? I think that would be pretty interesting. In essence, Lobo cannot die. He has been banned from heaven and hell. He has shown the ability to heal from a single drop of blood, and later from just a severed head. He also has really cool toys, resistance to mind control (not much use in a hulk fight) and some really cool and devastating weapons, along with a space bike and the ability to breathe in space. I would be rooting for Lobo, because he’s funnier and cooler, but, it could go either way. Does anyone know the extent of Hulk’s healing abilities? Is it just instantaneus, or can he grow back limbs too?
good points Norris, but I really hope you are THE norris. If not expect for a sudden roundhouse-kick related death.
I saw in World War Hulk that Hulk healed fairly rapidly, from wounds that pierced his entire body through and through, but I have not seen him recover from an amputation. IN WW Hulk, it is said that the Hulk’s blood rejuvenates the planet, by growing plants from his blood. So whatever that means. It does not help in the fight, but he heals extemely fast!!
And yes I am the REAL Norris, since it is my first name. OUCH!!!
This message has been taken over by Chuck Norris’ mustache. The Hulk is no match for me.
I agree on the superboy-prime thing. If both were fighting to kill their opponents, then supes would instantly take it. If he saw hulk beating up a city or something, then he would just smack hulk around until realizing that there was no way to beat him except by killing him. However, if they both got teleported into some pocket universe, and were forced to fight each other to the death with the loser getting his universe destroyed… Superman has shown that he will cut loose if sorely provoked. He would probably kill hulk if he had to protect his universe. Then again, knowing superman, he would probably convince hulk to help him defeat the guy who teleported them there, but if he had no choice, I think that he would quickly rip hulk apart before he can get to the required strength level.
Doomsday would murder Hulk. He is as strong (if not stronger) and fast as superman, which is why he couldn’t have just chucked HIM into space. Hulk might be strong enough to afford to be retarded, but doomsday is a beast. To make him strong and tough, scintists that were trying to make a him into a superweapon (and we all know how THAT turns out), put him on a the most hostile planet ever. After he was killed, they resurected him and did it again and again, until nothing could hurt him. Unfortunatly, Doomsday didn’t like that so he murdered them all. He now has an intense hatred of people in general. Yeah, the hulk has destroyed some stuff, but when doomsday crash landed on a planet similar to earth, but more advanced, he punched everything until there was nothing taller than him. Doomsday would quickly rip hulk in half, like superboy-prime would.
Luke, Really, Doomsday would murder the Hulk, now I know you are crazy. If Doomsday is that powerful, The Hulk would just get super mad and rip him to shreds. Remember, if Superman can beat Doomsday, it has to be agreed upon that the Hulk will have no problem with him. Doomsday is a beast but he is not in my opinion, in Superman’s and The Hulk’s League. Superman Prime, who is 3x’s stronger than Superman will give the Hulk fits, but once again, no one knows how powerful the Hulk gets when he becomes royally pissed off. If all the heroes in Marvel could not handle him, and there are some seriously powerful heroes in Marvel; remember they shot him to another planet, in Planet Hulk becaue he was way too powerful to leave on the Earth. All I’m saying is we do not know the upper limits of the Hulk’s powers when he is pissed of to the highest point of pissivity <— is that a word?
hulk has unlimited strength superman has a set power level which means that when superman reaches his level thats as far as he can go (not saying he stops he cant gain any more power) but the hulk can get much more power
If I recall correctly, the people who sent hulk to space were ironman, reed richards, dr. strange, and some other guy. While they are decent heroes, they are not as good as DC’s. If a smackdown wouldn’t work, what about sickness? Poison Ivy might actually have a shot. Since you don’t know too much about DC, you might think that some loser who can make flowers grow is lame. Well, her power are WAY more complicated than that. She can once almost killed Green Lantern, because she was able to make him contract a deadly disease derived from plants that completely immobilized him. In some versions, she can completely control alien plants as well. I haven’t seen hulk show immunity to viruses, and have seen him put to sleep with enough tranquilizer darts (fired by deadpool) so that way might work. Now, why don’t you ever consider the fact that Doomsday could quickly kill the hulk. Just quickly rip him in half, before he can do anything. You said he could get super mad and rip doomsday to shreds. What if he didn’t have time to get to doomsday’s strength level. And what about Vixen? Right now, in the comics, she is one of the strongest people in the JL. She can steal people’s powers. Not just powers, attributes (taking some of red arrow’s archery skills and nailing a target two football fields away the first time she picked up the bow. Imagine her fighting the hulk, but systematically stealing his strength for herself when he gets too strong. He could be defeated that way. Also, is it all right if we expose superman to some kryptonite? just to make this fight fair. If he was, then he would without a doubt emerge victorious from the fight. I’ll explain how in the next comment. First, what do you guys think of Lobo versus Hulk, or Lobo vs. Wolverine?
Lobo vs Hulk is a very interesting match up. Lobo is a great definition of invulnerbility. 1 drop of blood and he was able to reconstitute his body. His strength is a worry though. In Marvel vs DC comic book Wolverine destroys Lobo. They describe Lobo’s strength as superhuman but there are so many examples of it!! Sometimes he is as strong as Superman sometimes he barely as strong as a Spiderman?!?
Hulk would destroy Lobo, but he would reconsitute himself from whatever is left and come back again for another fight. I guess it comes down to some heros and villians in comics have powers and abilities that just make them a bad match up for a fight. They really can never be defeated one way or another. Hulk can not die really, Superman just needs to be hibernated in the sun, Lobo needs just one drop of blood, and Wolverine probably needs to just be able to breathe(maybe).
My question is what is the defination of Invulnerability for DC and Marvel? Some people who have invulnerbility get killed, while others who have it can have bullets bouncing off of them. Wonder Woman is a good example of what a real super hero should be like. She can only take SO MUCH damage before she is REALLY HURT.
Norris, I agree what is the definition of invulnerability? Superman’s invulnerability has been exposed because he was killed, and the Hulk isn’t invulnerable if he turns back into Banner if he’s hit with tranquilizers. WOnder Woman, Iron Man, Batman, Captain America, Spiderman, Green Lantern, GreenArrow, Hawkeye, and many others from both universes can die; they may be take a lot of damage but in the end they can die. Even Demi-Gods like Heracles (Hercules) and Thor can be destroyed. We have seen Darkseid and Doomsday neutralized; even Superman Prime has weaknesses. So it all depends on the circumstances. These debates pay off when people look at them logically. Good lookin out Norris!
Andre, We appreciate your comments on our Marvel vs. DC posts and wanted to invite you to our latest: Darkseid versus Apocalypse. Keep those comments coming! They really make these posts.

Superman vs The Hulk.
Well this would be a very long long fight. On one hand I can’t see Superman killing the Hulk because Superman dosn’t kill and he intends to hold back alot.
On the other hand The Hulk might be able to match Supermans strength but after that it would be a problem for the hulk. Superman can use his super speed to avoid most of the hulks punches. Even if the hulk can jump high in the air Superman can easly dodge him while hes jumping one way.
Then you gotta remember Supermans abilities to freeze things as well as heat vison. The X ray vison would come into play as Superman could easily be waiting anywhere and the hulk wouldn’t be able to see Superman but Superman would see him from afar and no where to hit the hulk.
If it was just a battle of power vs power it would be a draw. If the Hulk could get kryptonite then he would win. Very few villians have made Superman bleed without kryptonite or magic. If Superman faught the hulk in the sun superman could just absorb energy from the sun and get so powerful that the hulk getting mad wouldn’t matter.
So over all Superman would win. Keep in mind Superman has defeated clones of himself and even 3 other villians with the same powers he had at once{Superman 2}
But if Clark Kent faught Bruce Banner then Bruce all the way being how I would take a scientist over a reporter anyday of the week.
Norris, that wolverine vs Lobo fight made me SO mad. You see, because in most cases, DC would pwn marvel, so theylet the fans decide, then valiantly tried to find a way to explain their poor choices. In acuality, Wolverine has as good a chance of beating Lobo as the thing beating superman. The fans voted for Wolvie because they heard of him more. It was completely retarded. Hey Steve, I wouldn’t be so quick to say scientists are better than reporters. In superhero universes, when heroes first get their powers, whose fault is it (indirectly, in some cases)? Scientists. They make so many mistakesduring expiraments, it’s ridiculous. Without scientists, we wouldn’t have dozens of hero/villains. For example, Metamorpho, Dr, Manhatten, Wolverine, Cyborg, Spiderman, Cheetah, Mr. Freeze, Parasite, Clayface, Doctor Octopus, The Green Goblin, The Hulk, Deadpool, Sabretooth, the list is endless!
everyones saying “oh well the hulk wont find supermans weakneses” well nethier did dooms day and he f***ed up superman plus superman has a set power level hulk has no limit to his power. can people shut up about DC being able to pwn Marvel because they cant every person that DC has Marvel can counter with other people like superman,captain marvel. darksied,thanos. dooms day, apocalypse. so every Marvel hater saying shit about how DC is better does comic books really matter in real life (yes i do read comic books and i do enjoy them but they dont matter in the least bit there just there to read and enjoy)
Superman vs The Hulk would be a very long battle. Frankly the earth would be no more.
The reason I pick Superman would be because Superman can change his power attacks around. He could blind the hulk with super speed attacks and the hulk would never be able to catch or keep up with him.
The Hulk wouldn’t be able to avoid freezing and heat powers of Superman. As far as strength I can see the Hulks punches hurting Superman but not killing him. Very few people have made Superman bleed without kryptonite or magic. If the Hulk used either one and then attacked Superman,superman would be killed.
And Supermans X ray vison would be useful in this fight because he could be standing behind a wall or far away and the hulk would never see him coming.
So Superman wins but not easily.
Steve3o: I beg to differ; if Doomsday killed Superman, and Doomsday is supposed to have Hulk level strength, why do you think Superman would fight any differently against the Hulk? The Hulk made Superman bleed in the DC/Marvel crossover mag, and it was a very short battle, 3 pages, by the way DC’s writers had Superman win that short battle go figure, I digress. Also in the crossover mag Superman hit the Hulk with the full force of his heat vision and Superman said. “I doubt even you can withstand it completely.” The Hulk took it without even a scratch, and yes all you have to do is get the DC versus Marvel crossover mag. So I would think his freeze breath would not be a factoe either. If Superman was going to beat him by using his superspeed, he didn’t use that strategy against Doomsday, so it’s pretty likely he won’t use against the Hulk. We are talking about DC and Marvels strongest heroes, so to compare them do this, what is Supermans best feat of strength? The HUlks is he literally held up half of the Earth for an extended period of time, so you tell me who’s stronger. One thing about the Hulk, he has and never has used an unfaid advantage to beat an opponet, so he could care less about magic or kryptonite. Superspeed does not work against the Hulk simply because his shockwave with render it useless. Bring the facts Steve!
Superspeed is useful if you can FLY too, andre! Shockwaves won’t work and you know it. Superman could easily dodge around hulk, if he ever tried any shockwave stuff, he could simply hover in theair, if he wasn’t already. By the way, yeah that was really cute, the hulk holding up the world. Superman has actually punched a hole through the time dimension and was sent 83200 years into the future. He also did this in a weakened state. You know, I think that trumps holding up the world (which superman could easily do).
Andre
The Hulk could match Superman in a battle if it was just power vs power. It would be a very long battle.
But the Hulk is only power and rage. Superman has super speed,strength,freezing and heating abilities,he can fly around the world and turn back time,and X ray vison. In other words if Superman flew his fastest around the world once and flew full speed at the Hulk,he could punch a hole right through him,if not knock him off the planet.
Your also forgetting that Supermans power comes from the yellow sun. If he flew the Hulk into the sun and absorbed the suns power,no matter how much the hulk got mad he would be killed.
The only person in marvel who could kill Superman in my view is Apocolypse since he can’t die.
But if Superman has beaten enemies with the same power and force he has,then how would he have trouble with the Hulk. The Hulk is only strength. Superman could dodge every punch. The Hulk gets madder and madder yes,but you can’t use power against someone you can’t catch. And even though the Hulk gets mader sooner or later he will still feel pain. Superman can change his attacks from super speed to freezing to heat vison and the Hulk would never be able to keep up with the changes. So Superman walks away after a long long battle with the Hulk. Too bad the earth would be destroyed after the battle
Steve30,
I hear you but of that is so, how did Superman lose and get killed by Doomsday? If Superman would deploy all those tactics against the Hulk, why were they not used against Doomsday?
Andre
Superman wasn’t really killed by Doomsday. What happend was Doomsday and Superman each went for a fatal blow and Superman flew him up above the earth and then came flying down while locked with Doomsday and he drove Doomsday into the earth which temporarly killed both. But they both returned later in the series. Superman has used freezing and heating abilities on Doomsday. My guess the reason why they didn’t kill Doomsday was because Doomsday is also from krypton just like Superman. He had Supermans power and had more rage. Doomsday also dosn’t feel pain so thats why he had Supermans number. But only for a short time
Now the only thing worse then a Superman vs Hulk battle would be a triple threat battle on earth between Doomsday vs The Hulk vs Superman. This would be the longest not to mention the most brutal battle ever
Steve30, well done, I agree with you a Doomsday vs. Hulk vs. Superman would be no joke, I would like to add a fourth player from Marvel; who do you think would fare better against those three titans The Silver Surfer, The Mighty Thor/Hercules or Juggernaut? We have to at least get another ridiculously powerful person from Marvel.
Also, in the crossover magazine Thanos was equal to the power of Darkseid, so I don’t know who would win between Thanos and Darkseid.
Andre
The only one who can be added to the battle is the juggernaut. He is in many ways like Doomsday and The Hulk,he keeps coming no matter what. If you took these 4 men and place them into battle I can see the earth being too destroyed to be repaired. Forget global warming being a problem because it wouldn’t have destroyed the earth fast enough.
Either way if the 4 got to battle each other then I can’t see anyone walking away. Not even Superman would be able to take on all 3 of them if they faught him together. And Doomsday dosn’t get along with anyone no matter what they are after. And the Hulk and the juggernaut wouldn’t co exsist without them going at it.
Steve3o, I would have to agree with you. In the Marvel /DC crossover, after Superman defeated Thor, Iron Man, She-HUlk, Vision, and Hercules almost killed Superman before Aquaman rescued him. So I agree Superman or The Hulk could not last against the others by themselves. Good stuff Steve3o!
Hulk would win for sure! Easily the superman movies show me DC’s view of your Superman . Superman 2 without his strength got beat up like a Lil bitch at the dinner. If that guy had sups power superman would be calling him master. The last super man he was getting his as handed to him,I mean dragged by his hair perty much crying. That’s not my hero maybe yours and his outfit screams I love men. These are a facts ,plus hulk is stronger and he’s hometown earth.
sorry, but hulk has absolutley no chance look at their strength levels. Hulk has held up the earth before. while this is pretty cool, it has nothing on superman, who has actually punched a hole in the space-time continum, and held a black hole in his fist. He has also turned back time, if we count the movies. Hulk has never shown this type of strength. Sorry, but this is just too much in superman’s favor.
Hulk never ever showed his true power . He is not in the buisness to f*** with a black hole or go in time. He breaks shit and he dosent need our tiny sun in a large universe either. And he dosent ware blue pantyhose to show off his junk. He his raw power . P.s does super man have a green card? I believe he I’s a illegal alien. I think hulk should knock his Rue Paul ass back home.
Don let me tell you something about this battle. The Hulk only does things one way and thats with power. He could match Superman with power attacks.
But the Hulk wouldn’t be able to keep up with Supermans other abilities like freezing,X ray and heat abilities. And how does the Hulk catch Superman when Superman can move just as fast as the flash. Superman can also fly around the world and turn back time itself. So how does the Hulk use power on someone he can’t catch?
If the Hulk had kryptonite or red sun power or magic itself I cant see the Hulk beating Superman that easily.
The Hulk would win on pure merite alone. Hulk has a can handle any x ray vision superspeed and freezing temps, got it no more supeerman this and that , he is overrated in D.C , in marvel world witch is true world , its has N.Y and so on superman would be sucking hulk %$#* for a dollar. superman is a panzy a alien dressed in drag %$#@ superman.
Finally, someone realizes that the Silver Surfer is really that powerful and Superman would have a serious time with him if they fought. I really couldn’t tell you who would win. Paul, you are the man, irrefutable evidence is what we needed. One last thing, the Surfer is powerrful but remember he cannot anwas not able to handle the Hulk. Just look at the Planet Hulk series and you will see why they had to jettison The Hulk into space. His rage was to great for any hero in Marvels universe to handle. Just food for thought!
Power Brokers,
Did any of us realize that Marvel and DC’s strongest hero was made from some form of radiation? Superman coming from Krypton and using Earth’s yellow sun to get his powers; and The Hulk got his from exposure to gamma radiation.One more thing we have never really seen either of these powerhouses really, really, angry enough to see what their top strength level could actually be. I would agree that the two of them versus Marvel’s and DC’s heroes/villians would be no contest Superman and the Hulk would wreck shop.
I think I should mention this to ramp the ante up a bit, In the DC/Marvel Crossover mag, when the Justice League took on the Avengers, Superman was given permission to weild Thor’s hammer; at the end of the battle Superman tried to pick up Mjolnir and he could not. I wonder if you DC’ers watched Hulk vs Thor or Ultimate Avengers animated movies (it’s also in some of the old MArvel comic books, the Hulk is the only person to ever lift Thor’s hammer without his permission (I can’t forget that Wonder Woman lifted Thor’s hammer with ease, only because of her connection with the God’s). So, if you were using like scenarios, you would ahve to say that the Hulk has Superman in the strength department on this feat alone. I’m waiting on you DC homers to (try) and refute this bit of information, bring it!
Thjis battle is dependant on many variables. Are we talking Silver Age Superman (current) or Golden Age Superman? Silver Age is close to his Golden Age in terms of power but not quite. Marvel and DC had Superman vs the Hulk and the Hulk couldn’t even move Golden Age Superman.
I would go for Superman since he never shows his true strenght. He always holds back and has taken even Darkseid (a God) out many times when he doesn’t hold back.
Now if we want to go with Prof Hulk then we have to go with Superman Prime AKA Superman One Million For those who know, he needs no introduction. To those not familiar, he creates and destroys universes at a whim.
The Roman says,(It doesnt matter what the Superman fans say) Hulk would beat that pajama boy down to the ground. golden age even stone age superman.
@ The Roman,don fan, and aguy
tsk tsk, so many superman haters. I think it’s kind of funny that you think hulk will beat supes, and yet you have no solid argument to back it up. Most likely, you are 12 year old hulk fanboys (explains the profanity use) and are mad that your champion can lose.
Superman will win, he does have the will power to overcome any obstacles.
Although Hulk can get stronger the longer he fights, he doesn’t have superspeed and flight which Superman can use to hurl him to outer space or lift him as he pleases and render him unconscious while traversing the upper atmosphere!
Luke the info is posted, now where is your the data to back up your solid argument?
Luke,
Nice try, but I think you need to read whats below and then rethink your synopsis of Superman beating the Hulk. His powers and a few more tidbits about the Hulk’s abilities and unlimited strength are mentioned. And I say again, if Doomsday can kill Superman, He has no chance against the Hulk, read he info and weep: Please pay attention to LIMITLESS STRENGTH.
Here is the site you can go to to get more information; http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner) I am looking for a site that lists the same info about DC’s characters; if you know of one please listit so I can do heroby hero comparison.
Superhuman Strength: The Hulk possesses the capacity for vast levels of physical strength. The Beyonder once stated that the Hulk’s potential strength is limitless[173]. His strength has been additionally described as limitless [174]. However, each of the “core” Hulk personalities possesses a base strength level. While in a functionally calm state, the Gray Hulk is able of lifting 70 tons, the Savage Hulk can lift about 90 tons, and the Merged Hulk can lift about 100 tons. The incarnation sometimes referred to as “Green Scar” is the physically strongest of all the primary Hulk incarnations. After being exposed to energies from the exploding warp core of the ship that brought him to Sakaar, his base strength level was dramatically increased. While in a “calm” state, he was capable of lifting over 100 tons. However, while in an enraged state, adrenaline surges through the Hulk’s body increasing his strength considerably beyond all his limits. Among his impressive feats of strength are supporting a 150 billion ton mountain [175], smashing true adamantium [176], holding his own against the West Coast and the East Coast Avengers teams for a prolonged period of time despite being greatly weakened before the fight began due to separation from Bruce Banner [177], eventually knocking down the Human Torch, Thing and the Invisible Woman, in a casual battle among Hulk and them [178], holding his own against Wonder Man, Iron Man, Scarlet Witch and Vision while the narration states that Hulk’s power is indeed greater than their combined might [179], overcoming a huge energy absorption machine imbued with most of the combined power of himself, the Silver Surfer, Doctor Strange and Namor [180], overpowering Thor[181], stalemating Thor in hand to hand combat while Thor was in the state known as the “Warrior’s Madness” that amplifies his strength tenfold [182], knocking the Juggernaut to his knees with only two blows[183], holding a black hole core with his bare hands [184], almost breaking the East Coast and threating to break the entire planet by the sheer output of force from his body [185], overcoming a field of energy powerful enough to change the orbit of a planet [186], destroying an asteroid that was twice the size of Earth due only to his physical toughness, as the structure’s impulse was produced by the contraction and relaxation of his legs and the jets only prolonged the great speed of the impulse [187], breaking a space-time barrier with two punchs [188], cracking Onslaught’s armor after an enraged Savage Hulk emerged[189], holding together the tectonic plates of a planet[190], destroying a device designed to fight against the Celestials[191], sending concussive energy throughout countless dimensions only because of his power as Hulk antecipated Ironclad’s jump towards him and attacked defensively to remain untouched [192]. Thor even recognized that the Hulk may be physically stronger [193]. The Hulk also grows stronger the more radiation he absorbs [194], and the more dark magic he assimilates[195].
Superhuman Speed: Regardless of his size, Hulk’s superhumanly strong legs allow him to run at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. However this speed does not grant him any enhanced reflexes or agility as smaller foes exploit his size and use it to their advantage. Despite this however, he has been fast enough to catch mortar shells shot at him[196].
Superhuman Stamina: The Hulk’s body counteracts fatigue poisons that build up in his muscles during physical activity. In an enraged state, he is capable of exerting himself at peak physical capacity for several days before fatigue begins to affect him. However, much like his physical strength, the Hulk’s stamina does increase as he becomes angrier [197].
Superhuman Durability: In addition to great strength, the Hulk’s body possesses a high degree of resistance to injury. The Hulk’s skin is impervious to conventional blades, adamantium and vibranium being amongst the very few metals that are truly capable of piercing his skin. The Hulk is capable of withstanding high caliber bullets, explosives, pressure extremes, falls from orbital heights[198], maximized heat without blistering, maximized cold without freezing, and great impacts. The Hulk has withstood the impact of a ground zero nuclear explosion [199] and the full force of the Human Torch’s Nova Blast, which has a maximum temperature of 1,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit, without sustaining injury[200]. He was also able to withstand temperature hotter than that produced by stars[201], planet-splitting impacts[202], and a blast from Galactus[203]. The Hulk’s durability, much like his strength, is fueled by rushes of adrenaline while angry[204].
Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite his high resistance to physical harm, it is possible to cause the Hulk injury. However, he is capable of regenerating damaged or destroyed areas of his body with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. For example, during a battle with Vector he repelled all of the skin and much of the muscle mass off of the Hulk. It took the Hulk moments to regain the mass and be completely healed [205]. His healing factor also enables him to recover from any physical transmutation [206]. Hulk also heals faster and more efficiently the madder he gets[207].
Resistance to Psychic Control: In many instances, the Hulk has demonstrated great psychic resistance as a side-effect of his rage and the multiple personalities inside his mind[208].
Immunity to All Diseases: The Hulk is immune to all known Earth-based diseases, including AIDS [209]. He can operate under intense conditions for extended periods of time due to his body not developing fatigue toxins quickly.
Superhuman Leaping Ability: The Hulk is able to use his highly developed leg muscles to leap great distances. While calm, he is capable of leaping roughly 3 miles. However, as he becomes enraged, his strength increases considerably, which means he can jump much farther than usual. On more than one occasion, the Hulk has nearly jumped into orbit[210]. The Hulk has also been known to cover a distance of 1,000 miles with a single leap[211]. Another example of his leaping ability is shown during an encounter with Hercules, when Hulk jumped on top of Mount Olympus from ground level, in a single leap [212]. The Hulk also shows incredible precision with his ability to aim his jumps and landings. He has grabbed missiles out of the air on multiple occasions and landed on tiny islands that were barely visible from the height he fell from[213].
Adaptation to Hostile Environments: There have been several instances in the past where Hulk has not only spent extended periods of time in oxygen-less outer space without suffocating, but he has also moved his mouth and spoken in these environments. It appears that the Hulk’s body is able to adapt itself to new inhospitable environments whenever it is necessary[214]. Like his healing factor, it is believed that this ability is also fueled by his rage and the madder the Hulk is, the quicker the Hulk’s body will adapt.
Underwater Breathing: The Hulk has been seen on the ocean floor a number of times and is able to breathe due to his body developing a gland which creates an oxygenated perfluorocarbon emulsion which fills his lungs and equalizes the pressure[215]. He is therefore able to breathe fluid and avoid decompression and nitrogen narcosis.
Extrasensory Perception:
Astral Form Perception: The Hulk has the unique ability of being able to see “astral forms”–or ghosts[216]. This power has come in handy when working with his fellow Defender, Dr. Strange, who is able to leave his body in an usually invisible, ghost-like state known as an astral form. Banner subconsciously feared his father’s ghost would come back to haunt him, and so Hulk developed this mechanism to allow him to look out for him. Recent events have shown that the power to see astral forms may now extend to Bruce Banner. However, it was suggested the clarity of the astral forms is diminished when compared to the Hulk’s ability to view them. The Hulk’s ability to see astral forms may go beyond just seeing individual spirits. Hulk once experienced a whole town in the middle of the desert that faded away into nothing. While it is possible it was merely a mirage, the issue suggests it is possible Hulk was able to see a town that didn’t exist in our plane of reality that no one else could see.
Homing Ability: The Hulk also has a seemingly mystical homing ability that enables him to locate the area in New Mexico where he first became the Hulk[217]. This extends even if he is in another dimension. An image of the Maestro explained to Bruce that the reason he was able to do that was because the Maestro’s spirit was there, calling to him. However, since the Maestro was resurrected the Hulk has continued to return to the gamma bomb site, suggesting that there is more to his ability than merely the Maestro’s spirit. This homing ability has also been used to find people on rare occasions. For example, the Hulk was able to dig a tunnel underground exactly in the direction of Onslaught, to which the Vision noted that the Hulk’s sense of direction “borders on the supernatural”. While it is possible that Onslaught was mentally leading the Hulk to him, there were other instances of Hulk demonstrating this ability. Hulk’s instincts led him to Rick Jones and Betty and the Hulk located the Abomination with no prior knowledge of his whereabouts.
Luke, i’m pretty sure you are not going to let me one up you and not make a case for your boy Superman being stronger. I have now given you my research, read it, study it and respond to it with data that backs up your affirmations, and like I did, please include the site you got your info from just like i did. Let’s make this thorough, if I have to I will continue t beatdown your theory that Supes is stronger than the Hulk. Bring it!
OK heres the deal. In terms of limitless strength and power, Hulk is by far the winner. Not only invincible at full rage, but getting stronger and stronger without end.
Superman is strong but his strength has a limit even if/when he would loose total control. He DOES NOT get stronger like the Hulk. All the sun does is give him his strngth back, but if Superman would be exremely low, it would take some time for him to recharge. Hulk wouldn’t give him that chance.
Im not saying who the ultimate winner is. There are MANY scenarios that could make either of them the victor. Here are a few.
Clowdy day and no sunlight, Hulk has Superman pinned on the ground and keeps whaling on him. Hulk is the winner because as he keeps whaling without stopping, his rage and strength increase to limitless and beyond, eventually knocking out or kiling Superman(if he even can be killed by physical force without giving him a chance to recharge).
Superman just knocking or flying the Hulk into space. No air. Superman winns.
These two are truly the strongest titans of their respected universe (DC and Marvel). Both have strenght that can not be matched as well as the will that is the driving force behind their strength.
Depending on what situation, what curcumstance, what limit you create in your scenario, any one of them could be a winner.
@ Andre
LIMITLESS says it all. If Superman has strength as maybe 3 Hulks, thats ok BUT, Hulk’s strenght continues to grow and it is not stopping, EVER, unlike Superman’s. Superman may be strong but he has got a limit. Now ppl could say ok, Hulk can get stronger than Superman. But just beacuse the Hulk has limitless strength that can far outmatch Superman’s dont assume that Hulk is automatically the winner. Superman has got many other strenghths and ways to get around the hulk. It could be hard because averything he would throw at him would be pointless if hulk is only getting stronger and stronger.
Hmmm id suggest just hovering way up in the sky and letting him cool off. Then when he does quickly fly back down and snap his little neck. ha ha but seriously. thats one scenario.
Again, depending on the scenario…anything is possible. Im just making a point that is as obvious as 1+1=2, meaning that if you have LIMITLESS strenght bound to Hulk, then you MUST acknowledge that Hulk CAN get stronger than Superman, waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy stronger depending on how angry he gets. The longer the fight, the more rage. Not as soon as the fight starts of course, but eventually he can. Not accepting this theory is saying that 1+1 does not equal 2. Simle as that. Now…Hulk is stronger than Superman. where the fight goes from here, i’ll leave it up to them
I’m not trying to be funny but the only way Hulk can beat Superman is if the Hulk goes back in time, before Kal el landed on earth, and smashed his crib. Because I’ll be serious with you, I don’t think with all the Hulk’s phenomenal power, he could have taken Superman even as a baby. (ka-el got his powers when he landed on earth as a child)
Now I know the hulk is scary. I mean with all this extrasensory powers and extra gland ability and insane strength. I know the hulk’s ability to do these things has something to do with his relentless emotion to HAVE HIS WAY (this is why he was able to grow the gland in the first place) and yes he is incredibly strong and he gets stronger with every emotional outbusrt. But please, please, please, puh-leeeeeassse..do not ever think for a second that the hulk can take on SUPERMAN. It’s just not physically nor mentally a possibility. Now since this thread is based on fact and not opinion, I will tell you the fact on why this is not possible.
Superman is INVULNERABLE. There is absolutely nothing known and unknown that can defeat him. The myth that kryptonite is his weakness is just a metaphor to explain that he is indestructable because if you notice he has been almost killled by kryptonite more than once. Note the word ALMOST. He has been shackled with it in water, whilst it hunng on his neck in superman the movie, he has been zaaped by it in superman 3, he has been bombarded with it countless times in comics, and yet HE JUST KEEPS COMINNG BACK. If kryptonite couldn’t do the trick how on this planet or any other existence can the hulk do it?
Another important factor that most be noted to all of you is that this thing about Superman having a weakness in the form of his heart is another falsity, which I am surprised you all haven’t seen yet. Superman’s heart is actually his greatest strength. It was his heart that made him regain his powers in superman 2, it’s his heart that makes him make the right decisions and actually be the savior of a primitive planet, and whether you have noticed it or not, it is his heart that is the organ that the earths red sun metarphorically stands for. Remember what Jarel said; they only lack the light to show the way. Superman IS THE SUN, he IS this earth that he saves, he isn’t just a superhero, he is actually the embodiment of goodness, of light. This is why he keeps cominng up with so many different powers, this is why in no comic book or movie have you ever seen superman use all his speed or power; except once when he lost control and spun the earth round it’s axis….TO TURN BACK TIME. As in he became godlike just because he chose to do so. SUPERMAN doesn’t possess power he IS power. The beyonder, doomsday, the entirity of DC is but a tale in the long journey that superman is on; they are the things that he came to earth to experience as well as the humans he helps. His intelligence has already fortold this in the fortress of solitude, in the pod he came in as a child, in his everyday dealings with earthlings. He simply holds back, because holding back is part of the responsibility he must show. Long before spiderman’s great strength great responsibility slogan. Superman stands for more than truth justice and the American way. Superman stands for human kind and beyond. Notice I haven’t even mentioned his feats of strength, because to say something like that about superman is too base. The guy simply is much much much much more complicated than mere strength. The man can’t even be stopped by kryptonite for goodness sake.
This is why my friends, there is no way that the hulk can get the best of this being, this alien, the kryptonian, the man of steel, the adopted son of planet earth. Superman.
@Judith
Kryptonite CAN and WILL kill Superman IF you expose him to it in strong doses over a longer period of time. The only reason why you never saw Superman truly dead in a movie is obvious, the film makers and writers for commix couldn’t,… no WOULDNT let someone like Superman just die. The script was specifically written for that dumb hooker to feel sorry for Superman which made her get into the pool and remove the Kryptonite shackles off his neck. What would the movie have been if he died?
Go back in time, rewrite the movie to JUST THAT.
Go to the opening premiere and listen to the words of the people who are storming out of the movie. I BET YOU A 1000 bucks you are going to hear just this sentence “total waste of $8, ridiculous!!!”.
Saying that kryptonite will not kill Supernman is like saying physical trauma can’t kill you. You CAN and WILL die if youre exposed to enough of it. Same goes for poison, burns, and whatnots. Yeah he is invanurable to earths physical matter (i.e. bullets, fire, lasers…on and on) but beacuse he was created, a weakness had to also have been created. Im pretty sure by now now you have watched enough movies and cartoons to realize that every Superhero who is created in our imagination has to, HAS TO have waeknesses and Super villans. A movie would not be written without the couter balance which is what thrives the plotline (will he survive the kryptonite?; will he beat that giant destructobot?)
You and I bot know that he WILL. Unless you’re watching a true story where the hero is popped in the head (which usually happens in real life) your’e going to see your favorite Superhero alive and well, and at the end he has saved the day and everything is fine and dandy. And even if they write the plot theta he truly does die, they will come back with a sequel and revive him oh hell this is all common sense why am i even writing this???
Let me just post the same argument I used on the Marvel vs DC page earlier:
Superman’s speed alone is enough to stagger hulk. Since he can fly, and unlike many other speedsters, take a hit from hulk, hulk is going to be in trouble. He is fast enough to not only dodge Darksieds omega beams, but use them to his Darksied. As admitted by the Hulk’s strengths feats, while he can get up to a pretty good speed, he has no superspeed, since quicker and more agile opponents have been able to exploit this. You think hulk being able to destroy the earth is something? Superman could crack the earth in half with far less effort than hulk did. He cracked one of Saturn’s moons in half when Lex Luthor became president because he was mad. Also, at full strength he has been shown to be able to lift 200 quintillion tons (http://www.comicvine.com/superman/29-1807/superman-feat-thread/92-23326/). That’s straight from the comics, not Wikipedia. Also, don’t be so quick to write off superman’s heat vision. The technology earth has is enough to measure the temperature of stars, but not enough to measure the heat of Superman’s heat vision.(http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/863/supermansheatvision30nk.jpg) He has also used it to raise the temperature of an entire planet. He has heard things millions of miles away, and survived a sun eater, as well as destroying an entire planet and defeating thor. (http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f98/t371890.html)
The Hulk has bled. And if he can bleed, he can die, limitless strength or no.
Luke,
Has the Hulk ever died by the hands of one of his enemies? No, nuff said! And remember Superman hit the Hulk with his heat vision at full blast, nothing, so what’s next?
Do you have any idea hw ridiculously illogical that sounds? Just because hulk has not died doesn’t mean he has never been defeated, i just mans that he is very luck he has never met anyone who managed to kill him. You mavel fans claim that dc’s heroes are overpowered, but since Hulk has never met his match, that takes a whole lot of suspense out of his fights. Hulk hit something. He hit it again, and again, and again, oh look, he got punched! Now.. oh he hit them again. Superman for one thing is more interesting, and was one of the first superheroes (the first one to matter) ever. He has a wide range of powers, is not legally retarded, and uses his head. Hulk is just some crazy monster.
@ andre
Also, when you said that the hulk could easily beat the flash, I don’t think that you quite understand the magnitude of Flash’s speed. When he runs at near his full speed, he cannot be seen, and everyone around him are like statues, so, in the several minutes it takes for hulk to see and understand what is hitting him, try to throw a couple a punches, and finally think of making a shockwave, flash could have decided that hulk is too angerous to be kept alive, vibrate through him, and leave him nothing but a green stain on the ground.
That would’nt really play a big role in the fight. Superman still managed to beat hulk in the DC vs Marvel crossover. He could just instantly rip him apart. Hulk couldn’t do much against strength that starts off way stronger than his own, AND intense superspeed, not that Quicksilver crap, like Flash superspeed.
Everyone use your brain superman is not smart by any means when he fights he fights head on so if hulk and superman were to get into a fight it would be a very long battle one where superman would literally die from exhaustion. because even though both have impressive resumes holding up planets and punching holes through time and space the huge advantage hulk has is the fact that he has unlimted power the more the hulk gets frustrated the more damage he takes the more power he gains. Here is another huge disadvantage superman punches first and figures out a plan later so unless he runs away and figures out a weakness he will never ever defeat the hulk.
P.s Hulk is raw energy so the speed thing is not a big deal because he is just as fast. and he can create a necular exsplosion with just clapping his hands.
If you looked at the crossover fight, it had stipulations that DC did not apply to Superman, the first one to stay down for a few seconds was the one who lost; Superman got put down first, so he should have lost. That’s what you get when DC is in charge of the crossover plot. I think you forget that the Hulk has an instantaneous healing factor, he could be rippped in half and heal himself, Superman is strong but as soon as he hit the Hulk, the Hulk would immediately increase his strength, if what you are saying is true. The Hulk is capable of lifting 100 tons in his weakest state (not as the gray Hulk) so Superman would not beat him that quickly. Also, if you paid attention to the crossover mag, Supes conceeed tha the Hulk was the tougest, strongest being he had ever fought; and this was after the battles with Doomsday and Thor. I also keep wondering why you DC’ers think Superman would beat the Hulk, when he was killed by Doomsday. If his speed is such a factor, why didn’t he use it against Doomsday? Remember the Hulk is stornger than Doomsday, so I’m not feeling the ratonale. Also, one last note, Superman in all his power was not able to lift Thor’s hammer without his permission. Read The JLA vs Avengers crossover, The Hulk has picked up Mjolnir numerous times. I feel you but it’ll keep going
You don’t know that. Hulk never actually has lost any limbs, or been seperated from any part of his body in any way. Since that has never happened yet, you can’t say that for sure. Also, Superman starts out WAY stronger than the hulk. Without even breaking a sweat, he managed to crack one of Saturn’s moons in half. He could destroy earth with almost no effort. It took a lot for hulk to just threaten the earth.
Also, Doomsday HAD superspeed, if you read the comic, you would have seen him and supes fighting in superspeed. Hulk was only able to lift Mjolnir because of his increasing, strength. I already said superman is WAY faster than Hulk, flying at speeds that were near lightspeed. Also, I said FLYING. This is something hulk cannot do. Superman could just fly away and let hulk calm down, then come back and freeze him or something. He could also immediately throw hulk into space at the begenning of the fight, since Hulk has no way of propelling his way through space, the fight would be over, even if hulk can now apparently breathe in space, he would still probably calm down. And banner cannot breathe in space. I just want to know how hulk could get around that. Superman can easily just break whatever planet they fight on, then, since he can fly, he has options. Hulk may be able to destroy the planet as well, but he would just have to wait until fortune pushes him into the gravitational field of a planet. Superman starts out being able to hold more than 40 quintillion tons. That beats hulks starting point of 100 tons. That means he can at the very least snap hulk’s neck. I know that wouldn’t kill him, but it has been done in the comics, and took him a few seconds to heal from it. By that time, superman could have ripped hulk to pieces, and ripped every one of hulk’s internal organs out of his body. I am not exaggerating. Lastly, before you say it, yes, I know how Prof. Hulk would beat superman. Why do you focus on him so much? This is hulk, not Prof.
Luke, nice info, but if you look at the Hulks powers, he has superspeed also. You also forgot about the Hulk jumping ability, he jumped from Earth to Mount Olympus, to battle Hercules, so as long as the Hulk has a base to jump from he can and will make it to various places.
Well, jumping that far is quite impressive, but it doesn’t really change much. He may be able to jump really far, but it’s in only one direction. He cannot alter his direction. I can see him jumping at suerman, and superman dodging him. What then? Hulk’s at the mercy of gravity. Also, his superspeed is more like a truck’s. As he builds up his speed, his momentum carries him forward faster. In a straight up fist fight, he is slow enough for guys like wolverine to dodge around his fists. Superman can fly at the speed of light. That’s got to be at least a hole in hulk.
Superman flies at near the speed of light, I still ask the question, if you DC’ers say that Doomsday ison par with the Hulk, how can Superman be killed by Doomsday and why would the Hulk not be a match for Superman. To settle this we need to set up a battle between The Hulk and Doomsday, to put this nonsense to rest. The Hulk is the strongest one there is. Now, if we use Prof Hulk or WW Hulk, once again Dooms would not be a contest. Professor hulk defeater The Maestro, who was ten times stronger than him; it was The Hulks future self, so I just don’t understand why Superman would just layu waste to the Green Behemoth. Please fill me in.
Just look at what I’ve been saying Andre. Superman already starts out at his top strength, and Hulk starts out at about 100 tons. Superman HAS contained a black hole in his hand, warmed up an entire planet with his laser vision as well as punching a hole in time. He could just rip apart hulk before he gets to a strength level that’s too much for him. Finally, the trump card, if worst comes to worst, Supes can just break whatever planet they are fighting on, and leave hulk floating in space.
Luke,
Go to, http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner) and lok at the Hulks powers and tell me if they don’t rival or even exceed Supermans. The feats of strength alone are mind boggling.
Here’s a good quote from the unstoppable Green Giant,
“Then why do you suddenly look scared? Maybe you see that you could be ten times stronger than Hulk, and it still would not matter. Not when all Hulk has to do is become ten times as mad!!
– Savage Hulk”
This is why I give Superma his props but he would lose. He’s as strong as he is going to be, all the Hulk has to do is become madder, then it’s over.
actually the hulk can breathe in outer space and it doesn’t matter that he cant fly because the madder he gets the stronger he gets including his leg muscles. if supes does fly away that clearly shows he is not man enough to take him on head to head. Hulk has also punched a hole the space time continuum and held the entire world together, he also threatened to break earth with the stomp of one foot. He is an infinite times stronger than doomsday because he is always gets stronger the more you hit him. He and supes could barely survive that. If supes lets go of his morals then maybe just maybe he has a chance. And for those of you who say that he will freeze or melt hulk, hulk has survived temperatures equal to the big bang explosion, and temperatures near absolute zero. So supes has a slim chance of winning.
But how long would it take for him to get mad enough to get to that strength level? If someone one hundred thousand times stronger than hulk, with the intent to kill him, how could hulk survive long enough to reach the required strength level? In my eyes, someone like Doomsday or Superboy Prime could best him. And if you argue that Hulk is stronger than Doomsday, then let me tell you this. The marvel heroes couldn’t deal with Hulk, so they blasted him into space. The DC heroes couldn’t deal with doomsday, so they put trapped him at the end of time, and he STILL managed to escape. Also, Hulk’s feats of strength may be good, but I’m pretty sure punching a hole in time beats holding up the earth, and Hulk barely managed that. Supes could easily crack the earth in half without even thinking about it.
Luke,
Look at the Hulks powers:http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner):
Crypto Man after he was boasted with strength greater than Thor’s [176], overpowering Thor [177], holding a black hole core with his bare hands [178], almost breaking the East Coast and threating to break the planet by the sheer output of force from his body [179], overcoming a field of energy powerful enough to change the orbit of a planet [180], pushing spheres of matter and antimatter apart [181], destroying an asteroid twice the size of Earth due mostly to his physical toughness and to the impulse generated by the contraction and relaxation of his legs [182], breaking a space-time barrier with only two punchs [183], cracking Onslaught’s armor after an extremely enraged Savage Hulk emerged [184], holding together the tectonic plates of a planet[185], destroying a device designed to fight against the Celestials[186] and sending concussive force troughout countless dimensions due mostly to his power [187]. Thor even recognized that Hulk may be physically stronger [188]. The Hulk also grows stronger the more radiation [189] and the more dark magic [190] he absorbs. I hope this put that nonsense to bed.
Luke, just a few more facts my good man.
Superhuman Durability: In addition to great strength, the Hulk’s body possesses a high degree of resistance to injury. The Hulk’s skin is impervious to conventional blades, adamantium and vibranium being amongst the very few metals that are truly capable of piercing his skin. The Hulk is capable of withstanding high caliber bullets, powerful explosives, pressure extremes, falls from orbital heights [193], maximized heat without blistering, maximized cold without freezing, and great impacts. The Hulk has withstood the impact of a ground zero nuclear explosion [194] and the full force of the Human Torch’s Nova Blast, which has a maximum temperature of 1,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit, without sustaining injury [195]. He was also able to withstand temperature hotter than that produced by stars[196], planet-splitting impacts[197], and a blast from Galactus[198]. The Hulk’s durability, much like his strength, is fueled by rushes of adrenaline while angry[199].
Hey you guys! I believe this is clearly not possible.On is DC one Marvel, they will never meet, not even in a parallel universe.
Very impressive, except for the part about the human torch, he sucks. Otherwise, I see that the Hulk would be a very serious challenge to supes. The one thing that you don’t seem to know is that doomsday is WAY better than hulk. For one thing, he CANNOT die. If you kill him with say, an antimatter gun, he’ll immediately come back to life, with the change that the antimatter option won’t work again. If superman managed to defeat him, then Hulk shouldn’t come as too much of a shocker too him.
Luke,
Still, 1,000,000 degrees fahrenheit without sustaining injury is impressive even if the Torch isn’t. Also, it said “He was also able to withstand temperature hotter than that produced by stars.” As far as sheer power Doomsday would pale in comparison to the Hulk, no matter how strong Doomsday is he could never overpower, or outlast thet Hulk. I wish they would do a real crossover mag with heroes from DC versus villians from Marvel and vice versa, you know what I mean?
I came up with the most powerful from DC vs the most powerful from Marvel. My four most powerful from Marvel are, of course, The Hulk (World War Hulk or Professor Hulk), Thor, Silver Surfer and Extremis Iron man vs. My fourmost powerful from DC; of course Superman (Superman Prime possibly), Shazam, The Martian Manhunter and Green Lantern. If you have a different eight let me know!
BOTH ARE NO JOKE. I HEAR YOU HULK FANS SAY HULK CAN LIFT 150 MILLION TONS, DOES THAT WEIGH MORE THAN A PLANET? NO, THATS ONLY A MOUTAIN.
SUPERMAN CAN MOVE PLANETS. HE IS TOO FAST FOR THE HULK. YOU SEE HULKS POWERS B/C HE IS A RETARD. AS FAR AS SUPERMAN, HE HAS BEEN HOLDING BACK FOR YRS. YOU GUYS NEED TO SEE/READ SUPERMAN ALLSTAR. THEN YOU REALLY WOULD SEE THE TRUE POWER OF SUPERMAN.
EVEN WHEN THESE COMIC SMARTIES PUT THE TOP 10 SUPERHEROS IN A FIGHT, HULK ISNT EVEN IN THE TOP 10.
SORRY HULK FANS!
You guys forget the proffesor hulk is a mix of the green hulk where he gets the bulk of his power, the grey hulk for his slick behavior, and banner mind. But I think the only real hulk is the savage one. The orignal, hulk at his weakess can lift 100 tons that’s his starting strength. He can heal him self faster then any other character bar none.
Well, knowing Hulk’s constantly growing strength, and and Doomsday’s resurection powers, that fight could concievably continue forever.
Also, those would probably be my four from Marvel, DC wise, I’d say Green Lantern, but Hal Jordan endowed with the spectre. Instead of Shazam, I’d throw in Firestorm and the Flash, taking out J’onn J’onnz. Martian Manhunter, while not my first choice, is certainly a force to be reckoned with. He is the most powerful telepath in DC comics, but the Flash is just too fast. I can hardly wait until 2012, when all these superhero movies are coming out. Thor, Captain America, Green Lantern, Deadpool, and possibly Superman 2.
Luke,
Nice choices for DC forgot about the Spectre and the Flash. I amn stoked about al the Superhero movies also! I still say if Marvel and DC got together and made a Superman Vs. The Hulk movie, it could possibly be the top grossing movie of all time. Your thoughts.
well first who ever think that hulk can beat superman is a idiot and should jump off a roof were talking about a guy who can push against 200 quintillon ton(that’s a lot of 00000′s)WITH ONE ARM AND STILL DID NOT FIND AN UPPER LIMIT IF SUPERMAN RELLY WANTED HE’LL BITCH SLAP HULK IN TO OUTER SPACE AND BEYOND AND THE HULK WEIGHT WHAT ABOUT 1 TON
I,ll tell you one thing he Superman wont have a chance against the silver surfer.
Dre give it up they are bunch dc lovers superman is gay!
C. WISE:
go to http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner), the Hulk can lift more than a planet and he can do much more just read his abilities and strength, then bring it again.
Soo many great posts here. Bottom line is that Hulk has unlimited strength over superman. Ok, we got that. Wikipedia has a good site that displays his strengths. Hulk can lift planets, stop black holes, etc.
However, He doesn’t possess the speed or intelligence Superman has.
Superman was soooo fast, he reversed the rotation of the Earth thus reversing time! All he has to do is reverse time to where Hulk is Bruce Banner or not as strong, grab his ass and hurl him into space. Superman wins! Superman can zoom into space, use his super vision, fly down to the Hulk before Hulk realizes it or has time to get stronger, and then hurl him into space. Hulk will die.
What’s all this strength good for if you can’t even catch superman? Superman can literally fly down to the Hulk, and throw or knock him to the outer limits of space in 2 seconds or less before Hulk can even react.
End of story, Superman wins!!
i think your all stupid the obvious winner here is ronal mcdonald, not only is he one of the most recognizable faces in the world he also sells great food and has an awsome can do attitude and gets all the bitches. so stuff use all, Maccas FTW!
Superman hands down would win in this bloody battle. Does Hulk have cold breath or heat vision? Nope only his strength which stops short before Superman.
ok we all get the hulk has no bounds to his strenght but in this fight that is simply not enough goin against superman who can match his ONLY MAIN SUPER POWER (unless you want to talk about his useless power of sheding his blood and grow plants i mean the irony in that is stupid)
i bet superman prime can crush silver surfer
lazy00prim:
If the superspeed thing is true why does Superman have somany problems with Darkseid and Doomsday? Just looking at Supermans battles with those two tells me he will be seriously thrashed by the Hulk. Doomsday is an equivalent to the Hulk in many ways and he killed Superman and Darkseid takes it to Superman all the time, so you have to come with a different argument because the battles with Darkseid and Doomsdays speak volumes for the Hulk defeating Superman.
lazy00prime:
The Silver Surfer has superman beat hands down, no contest, Superman flies at near the speed of light; Silver Surfer flies lightyears, plural, in mere seconds. Any superhero database has the Silver Surfer listed as the Strongest superhero in both DC and Marvel. How do you combat that?
well starting with darkseid he have many ways of beating his opponents without strenght for example in final crisis (great comic by the way) darkseid used the anti life equation to become one with everybody on earth thus stopping superman form crushing him cuz if he sup did anything to darkseid everyone else would feel his pain (brain over muscle)
what about time trapper (older vertion of superman prime) vs silver surfer
Superman turn back time by circling really fast in opposite direction to the earths rotation, he cause earths spin to reverse.
Hulk Catch! *throws the cosmic cube* *hulk catches and wishs superman was gone* *Hulk wins* this is becuase the cosmic cube is capable of transforming any wish into reality!
Ok here is something many of you are forgetting. One While superman’s is at his peak he was still killed by doomsday. now all that crap about how superman limits his use of his power and strength out of respect of life is bullshit cause he fought doomsday at full power and was defeated. If it is true that he limits himself then the Hulk is the same way. The hulk manages to destroy cities, towns and even countries and yet no one is killed amazing. Is cause the hulk is weak? no it not he just that smart where he wreck the world and everyone lives. Ok next intellengence super man does not compare to the the hulk and here’s why. One If superman is so smart why does he charge into every battle unprepared. Sure he is strong but he is well known and his weaknesses are public knowledge. Hulk has banner’s mind which has been known to outsmart even the Leader or and even tony stark. Banner has even work with the hulk giving him tips and pointers on how to beat his enemies. Sure Supes has the phamtom zone gun like that’ll will do anything. banner has an oldstrong force gun which gives him the power of the whole planet when he uses it. Strength wise Superman is at his peak that is true. The hulk however will keep getting stronger as time goes on. One thing the hulk said was “It doesn’t matter if your ten times stronger then me when all i have to do is get ten times as mad.” His strength increases with anger as well as speed durablity healing etc. And honestly sure if Superman superman went back in time and stop or kill banner it doesn’t mean he can survive the amount of radiation being produce from the gamma bomb going off. Remember Gamma radiation is supose to be the most potent radiation out there. That’s like krptonite time ten right there. but superman is ether not stupid enough or he is not smart enough to do something like that or else when Batman die he would have went back and save him from that ever happening. Last thing hulk’s power is not limited like superman superman gets his power from yellow sun rays that it. So if it’s night time or for some reason he on another planet that doesn’t have a yellow sun or if our sun stops producing yellow sun radiation then superman is a normal human being. Magic has also been known to disrupt and even take away his powers. Captain marvel from DC univence and even black atom had beaten superman because they use magic since their transformation are magic base. Hulks power comes from three things one his anger, the angrier he is the stronger he is. Magic while hurts superman makes the hulk stronger as well since it is energy hell even cosmic energy makes hulk stronger if it hits him. And last any form of radiation whether it is krptonite or gamma radiation or even yellow sun rays hell the stars at night and the moon light makes him stronger that was one thing that made the maestro so strong. it wasn’t anger but radiation from a nuclear war that had happen. and like i said before if superman is so smart why does lex luther out smart him why does darkseid outsmart him. Technology if you want to go there then superman has the fortess and a dimension gun then banner has a weapon that gives him the power of the planet. he has create a fortess design to hold him and his infinite power if need be it evens holds the red hulk. Oh and before i forget he had even made armor and mechines that is able to go toe to toe with him for a while.
and one last thing before i’m done. The hulk has one last power that even superman is weak against and that is the fact that the hulk can release and absorb any amount of radiation and sadly for superman his magic shield of his can’t protect him against that kind of radiation. Now before anyone starts saying that superman beat the hulk in DC vs Marvel comic remember it was the professor hulk that superman fought and It does not get stronger it gets weaker as time goes on until it changes into banner due to it’s rage because of a safeguard that was install into only the professor hulk only.
I also forgot to mention that the hulk is able to adapt to any situation that shows itself such as when being drown in water his lungs adapted by producing a chemical that allows him to breathe in water. when in space his body had certain muscles contract and his skin had harden to be able to withstand being space with out a pressure suit. It has even adapted to the point where inspace he absorbs radiation and energy to repair his oxygen depleted cells. His body had even adapted to the point that as long as he remains in his hulk form banner can live almost forever. He has even been known to adapt insistently to anythreat that comes at him such as energy being drain such as being in deep pressure waters or the vacuum of space and even being hit by rays and energy blasts that have been know to kill and or destroy planets and godlike beings by either producing more bioenergy to overload said weapon or force certain aspects of his ablities to be push even farther to be able to withstand what is happening to him. the people that had created the hulk had even stated that the hulk was created as a defense that is design to keep banner alive at all time. If the enviroment is not safe for bruce banner then He will remain in hulk form until the threat is either remove or the hulk has relocated himself to a safer environment. His healing factor is even to the point when being hit by a ray that was burning away the hulks skin muscles and even organs away his healing factor push itself to the point where not only was the damage tissue was being repair it even grew back hell his healing factor even rejects anything that might accerate his healing beyond what the hulks body deems as safe. He had even withstand temperatures hotter then the core of the sun and his body even adapted to where his body becomes hotter whenever he is exposed to temperatures colder then what would freeze a normal human being. his strength increase to the point where sooner or later he will be able to run as fast if not faster then the flash. so yeah in a head to head fight the Hulk is the strongest there is
Hulks power at his highest anger is 150 tons. Supermans power is so far beyond that it’s 40 Quintillion tons. Seriously want to compare 150 to quintillion? So strength goes to Superman. Even “if” hulk got mad enough the fight would be over already.
Speed: Hulk is fast for his size but it’s not SUPER speed. He’s about as fast as a race car, MAYBE. Superman is as fast as a light switch. Which means instant. Might be faster actually because he can turn back time. Hulk can not even SEE his enemy.
Hulk has no other abilities. Superman has heat, freeze, super light speed running and flying. And he has an unstopable heart and will. And by the way, Superman LET Doomsday win, because of the human damgage being done. Superman was then RE born even stronger.
Can’t believe this is even a question. Superman can just chill out on the moon and beat the Hulk all the way on Earth. I enjoy heroes from both DC and Marvel, but any real fan of either one knows Superman is the greatest of all time.
Superman would win fairly easy, and actually did already for the record.
Power – Superman holds 40 quantillion tons, while Hulk a mere 150 tons at his angriest. Really want to compare 150 to 40 quantillion? Superman won in a few minutes.
Speed- While Hulk is fast for his size, he does not have super speed. As fast as a race car, maybe. Superman has light year speed, meaning he’s as fast as a light switch. Hulk can not even SEE Superman. And every punch or anything from Hulk would be EXTREME slow motion to Superman.
Hulk has no other abilities besides power. Superman has an arsenal including his power, run the speed of light, fly the speed of light, fire balls and lazer from his eyes, super breath, freeze breath, and xray vision. Plus he is totally indestructible. And don’t forget his greatest powers are technology, and his heart and will.
This isn’t even a question. I love both Marvel and DC, but any true fan of either one knows that Superman is the greatest of all time.
Oh my god Hulk wins he fought Sentry a hero with no weakness and has the same strength and speed (hell maybe even greater ) lost against the Hulk super man loses, and don’t give that bull about him spinning in time and beating the hulk like that cause why not do it with all the Cullen’s he fought or friends he lost, cause Superman is f’n stupid, if Superman is as strong as y’all say he would taken care of every villain with ease but its just all BS, Batman give Superman a match and he’s only a man while y’all make him look like a God come on really hands down Superman wins, superspeed will be no good if you got him to the point were you can’t hurt him just saying.
Dame auto I mean hulk wins
Prof Hulk isnt some made up Hulk like Composite Superman. He is the latest evolution. We are talking the Hulk of the day and the day is now. So we use the Hulk as he is now. Supes has the edge off the top. But we all know in any prolonged battle he loses. Heat vision .. cold breath.. cmon.. these are top tier Supers.. like throwing a bus at either one of them is going to do it. Supes can drop a mountain on the Hulk and do a 10 count.. but when Hulk gets out he will knock Supes to Jupiter and beyond.
Thank you Cody21, if Superman is all that you say he is, why did he die at the hands of Doomsday and why does Darkseid give him fits? Black Adam beats him everytime because Superman is vulnerable to magic. The Hulk is as strong as Superman starting out, then the Hulk gets stronger as he gets madder. Superman is as strong as he is going to get, so stop with the speed thing, super breath, heat vision, and all the other non-sense, Hulk wins hands down. Pure power is wht wins bwtween these two titans. Bring it non-believers!
Yes dame awesome Hulk hits this that’s all I got to say.
Ha y’all Superman guys don’t got nothing to say now huh cause hulk got this, speed and heat ray y’all are funny lol and going back in time classic lol so Hulk win Superman lose simple as that.
This really depends on the incarnation of each. If you take the STRONGEST version of the hulk (The Green Scar) and the STRONGEST version of superman. Superman would rape (look-up Superman-Prime from DC: One Million. Now if you take Strongest hulk versus New Earth Superman (cannon) the fight would be way to close to call. As said above Superman actively restrains himself so he does not destroy everything, and while the Hulk does not come out the cut as strong as Superman the hulk does have extremely potent Healing capabilities and he can get angry. And as the Green Scar he retains his intelligent and he knows how to fight using different weaponry. Now on Superman’s side IF he understood how powerful the Hulk was he could kill him in one blow but anyone who reads DC knows that Supes does not go for the kill,at least coming out the cut. Now as the fight goes on he would probably understand that he needs to go all out but by then the Hulk would be fighting on on Superman’s level. Now once both of these two powerhouses are fighting at full power the planet is as good as gone. Both of these fighters can fight for weeks, maybe even months. and they do not even need oxygen. And those who say supes could wait for Hulk to calm down are dumb-asses. Hulk does not have that weakness anymore. The ONLY possible way for any one of these heroes to beat the other is for one to get the others weakness. And that is more a matter of chance. More than likely it would be superman in this case, not because he is smarter but because Batman would study hulk, make a gamma-reducer (like Ultron did), and use it on the Hulk. While this could just as easily happen on the hulks side with Hank Pym and Reed Richards superman’s weakness is a lot harder to come by then the Hulks.
In a one on one fight with JUST The Green Scar (Hulk) vs. Superman the fight would destroy the planet and maybe everything else along with it and end up being a stalemate with both of the dying from exhaustion.
Now add in the resident smart-guys to help i have to give the edge to Superman only because the Hulk’s weakness is a lot easier to use against him.
Superman wil not fight to avoid the Hulk’s rage. Hulk drags Superman deep underground away from all yellow sunlight and beats the tar out of him, while keeping him from resurfacing. Superman may not be killed but his butt has been kicked.
rage + will + altered human = 1
superpowered alien + morals = 0
BTW
anyone remember a Superman comic where he would have been defeated by a fellow Kryptonian who was the strongest on Krypton? He tricked (Phobeg?) into taking a piece of gold kryptonite, thus robbing him of his powers permanently.
superman would win to the hulk
because he can use super breath,and heat vison,and strength,and speed.
After seeing a few movie trailers I thought it would be worth a trip to the cinema to see it After all ive been wating for this movie for a very long time I might just bite the bullet and end up seeing it, its not usually my cup of tea but ill give it a go !
Superman will have a unfair advantage aganist the hulk, because Hulk does not think when he fights, he just throws punches. Superman can think his way out of situations, then get overwhelmed by his enemies. Hulk can’t even beet the Abomination. Two laser shoots, and the abomination would go down, hard as a rock.
Bullshit y’all do not know shit Hulk will win easy, if Superman could do all that shit all y’all Superman fans say why dose he not beat his bad guys?
ok guy lets get down to this easy OK.BOTH OF THEM ARE GOOD BUT YOU GUYS GIVE THEM WAY TOO MUCH CREDIT OK.they say the can do all this things but yet you see them getting their as kicked all the time and their creators just maximizzes their strength for fun. lets start with the hulk
Hulk weakness: he fights in a pattern.hulk fights like and animal .he just attacks never thinks.if you fly fast and hit him reapeatedly at great speeds he migh or might not see them coming.soo you have to throw him of balance.
Supermans weakness: i have seen supermans fight and let me tell you he never blocks never uses superior speed .superman relies on just his strength and flight .take it away and he is some shyttt.all his other powers he never uses in a fight .
soo you see both characters are just strong and invunerable but based on what i have seen they give them way to much credit and they are not GOD soo one will Die.
SOOOO ALL OF YOU ARE DUMB THEY ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO CAN CHALLENGE BOTH OF THOSE CHARACTERS. CHARACTERS THAT STOP OR ABSORB POWER.GODS.MYSTICAL BEINGS. LIKE SERIOUISLY LOOK UP EVERY MARVEL AND DC CHARACTERS SOME PUT SUPERMANS AND HULKS POWERS TO JOKE STRENGTH IS NOT EVERYTHING .
NEITHER SUPERMAN OR HULK POWER MAKE SENSE THE DEFY SCIENCE WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE NOTHING WITH SUCH A SMALL MASS CAN MOVE MOUNTIANS AND PLANETS AND FLY AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT THE FRICTION WOULD KILL YOU AND THINK ABOUT IT TIME TRAVEL ISNT POSSBLE.SOOOO BOTH CHARACTERS STREGTHS ARE FIGMENTS OF YOR IMAGINATION.
Again people, listen up, if Superman will win easily with his speed, freeze breath, heat vision and strength, why does he not beat Doomsday and Darkseid with ease? The Professor Hulk is probably the Hulk Superman would fight, and The Professor Hulk isn’t the strongest Hulk, the Green Scar Hulk is the strongest, and I’m not even counting the Maestro, who was beaten by Professor Hulk. I almost forgot, Superman hit the Professor Hulk with the full fury of his heat vision in the crossover mag, didn’t even faze him. Also, don’t forget who cracked Onslaughts armor, and don’t forget who is the only one to ever lift mjolnir without Thors permission, Hulk. Superman tried in the crossover mag and mjolnir didn’t budge.
Bring it people. If they ever decided to make a Hulk vs. Superman movie, it would be the highest grossing movie of all time, comments please.
look to all super-man’s pussy fans
the hulk has pure limitless power
he’s able to do the same things as super-man if you give him time
the angrier hulk gets the faster stronger better healing factor and a harder skin he gets
hulk was thrown to the sun he got out with no scratch or burnt
hulk has caught the sentry
hulk has defeated dr strange
hulk faces villains that are much more stronger than him to the point of killing hulk with one punch but he still gets stronger!
look
the longer you hit and fight hulk
the higher chance that you’re dead
freezing doesn’t mean any shit to hulk
he is able to survive tempture beyond 0
hulk can stop black holes
hulk can smash and lift up planets
hulk gets stronger faster a better healing factor and a harder skin when he gets angrier ,hit with radiation dark magic and cosmic powers
hulk has healed a broken nick in seconds
hulk was hit in the heart as BANNER with wolveirne’s claws in wolverine vs hulk movie and he didn’t die
he transformed to hulk and kicked every one’s ass
’nuff said super-fags
Ok I know alot about dc and marvel and watch and read and love both, i have collected comics for a long time and I just wanted to point out that the hulk has punched through time and space and held a black hole together and has not limit to his powers and for mr “KRIPTONIANKNIGHT’ the hulks max strenght is not 150 million tons at his angriest that is just his starting strength at his weakest. And I mean come on batman beat superman what is up with that. And batman has trouble with the joker so that is pretty weak. Bar none it would be a awesome fieght but supes would not make it. I mean I think
Gladiator from marvel would whipp supes maybe.
hulk would beat super man because hulk grows stronger and there is no limit.iron man also said it in planet hulk animated movie hulk is fast he can go toe to toe with super mans speed he can breath in space.He will definately withstand super mans punches,heat vision. superman cannot easily throw hulk to the sun. hulk will not let him atall afterall gladiator was gonna do the same thing but hulk mad e him deaf hulk is the strongest one there is.
i want someone to show me how superman could actually win
http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner)
http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Superman_(Clark_Kent)
these are the only websites you need..compare the two and youll see hulk would win easy
The hulk hands down , superman has the speed thats it , hulk is stronger by far . The hulk has no definite strength as long as he can get mad , he will get stronger. Supermans strength is very high but its not infinite , after 15min of fighting superman would realize online way to end the fight would be to somehow grab the hulk and take him into outterspace and leave him and pray he never came back.
But once again toe to toe , hulk beats the s-curl outta supermans head.
Other ppl who would beat superman who arent gods
* captain marvel
Gladiator ( shi’ar empire)
Galactous
Apacolypse
Thanos
the hulk would win beacause no matter how superman try
he can’t kill the hulk beacause he has no limit on his strength and everytime hulk gets mad he will be more powerful superman will die
None of them will die since both of them are immortals DAVID .
Hulk would win by miles
because everytime he gets angry he gets stronger.
Superman can get smashed with the Hulk Smash.Ohey
i forgot Hulks Smash can take down max 17 buildings.If Superman shoots with his boring stupid laser eyes Hulk can
just use his hands to proctect his self and jump up to him
while Superman is shooting and just give him an strong
headboot and he will fall and while he is falling Hulk can just do
a Hulk Smash and Superman is died
so the Winner is the only one Hulk
and the loser of cours shiet Super man or actualy Super
loser
if superman challenged hulk,abomination,red hulk,gray hulk,green she- hulk and red she-hulk for sure superman will die
the hulk will gonna crush the face out of superman
to all dc fans if you have not heard about gladiator he is the marvel version of superman but hulk manage to beat him so that means hulk is stronger than superman
As a Superman and a Hulk fan I think Superman would just LET the Hulk win. As he did with Doomsday, because! of the human damgage being done. Superman was then RE born even stronger!!!.
If you think of it, Superman gets stronger every time and when he wants to. If I may say, supermen would just have Doomsday and the Hulk taken care of.
As a Superman fan I think Superman wont waste his time trying to prove who is the strongest right??
who knows we just have to wait and see until they come up with a movie or something
oh by the way, Imagine if it was Superman vs. Doomsday vs. the Hulk vs. wolverine. That would be awesome!
The whole thing about Hulk’s unlimited strength is balderdash, since in all likelihood the green one would revert back to Bruce Banner before he got mad enough and hence strong enough to equal Superman in native strength. I find it also likely that Superman, being a fast study of his foes’ abilities, would know he have to unleash his awesome in full before Hulk could anger himself to the proper dimensions to give Superman a run for his money. I think also that Superman would be the foe to give Hulk/Banner that fatal heart attack that’s just waiting for him. The radical transformation from Banner to the Hulk has to wreak havoc with his nervous system, and his perpetual rage doubtlessly makes his blood pressure a bomb just waiting to take him out. Superman , a cooler head and smarter, faster, stronger fighter, is just the one to have Hulk drop dead due to his own raging ways.
hulk would win, it would be a unique battle maybe in the beginning but superman has a difficult time defeating DOOMSDAY but since the fight will progress THE HULK SMASH LITTTLLLEEE MMMMAAANNNN!!!
superman has no unlimited power but hulk has every time he gets mad it’s bye bye to superman
superman would kill hulk witout doubt because like Luke said..if lois was to ever die from da hulk superman wont think twice before killing hulk.
Exactly David . But there is a version of Superman that has unlimited power called “Superman Prime” but that doesn’t matter, Hulk has unlimited power too .
hulk is just hulk he dosen’t need a prime or something but superman does to equal his streanth to the hulk
superman’s heat version,freezing breath won’t work on the hulk hulk has gone to the sun survived in a freezing planet of 0 temp. and superman can’t kill the hulk beacause he dosen’t have the strenght to match the infinite strenght of the hulk
supahsole you cant kill the hulk period. he regenerates to fast no matter what the man in the cap does to him it just wont work the only chance that sup has in defeating the hulk is hopeing that banner comes out, prime example of a great fight for the hulk look at WW hulk last battle, the Hulk lives to fight how ever he’s not a killer once more read world war hulk. he would no go out and kill lois how ever even if the man of steel got all mad the hulk well get madder the scary thing is the hulk loves to fight and the thoughter the fighter is the better for the hulk sup has no chance in betting the hulk his best bet is not to piss him off or use his super speed to get away and hide
superman will win because his super right dc fans huh what?!
edge when hulk gets angrier hulk gets stronger it’s gonna take a thousand superman to match his streangth
hulk is more devastating more dangerous and more destruction than superman himself he alomost destroy the earth and superman can’t beacuse he dosen’t have the enough strength to destroy the earth and hulk is also the savior and has the power to make the world at peace
Well you have a few wrong facts here DAVID. Superman is way stronger than Hulk,but Hulk’s increasing power is what later makes him stronger than supes . And also,superman has sneezed and the result of it was a destroyed galaxy .Peace?Hulk is a destructive monster dude!But if someone tries to be on his side and try to help and understand him,Hulk’s on the good side .He is a member of the avengers .
As for edge, your reason as quite silly and funny and doesn’t even make sense .
but he is still stronger than superman and the madder he gets the stronger he gets and supes can’t kill the hulk
He’s only stronger than Supes when he’s mad enough. Well Hulk and Supes are immortals they can live forever but they are NOT true immortals. A true immortal is someone who can’t die by any kind of way,take Deadpool or The Beyonder as an example.
THE INCREDIBLE HULK WINS !!!
Chuck Norris approves.
this is pretty easy really superman wins hands down there are a million ways superman can kill the hulk i will discuss a few then use your imagination.
lets starts with strength the standard superman if faster than the speed of light thats faster then the synapses in your brain anger is edorphines released in the brain before these chemicals can even be made in the brain superman wins easy and lets just say he waits lets the hulk come out, now hulk is only as fast as the speed of sound supers is faster he can easily pick him up fly into the sun and throw him in game over for mr hulk lets see him regenerate when all cells are destroyed.
next superman laser vision is stong enought to destroy planets in a single bound, this is seen in superman prime and superman blackest night comics not silly movies. lets see the hulk beat that also i want to remind people when hulk it shot by bullets they pierce his skin its just that he regenerates so quickly there is no damage, superman laser vision would burn every last living cell on hulk no where to regenerate from. and there is ice breath could also be used to kill hulk freeze before he turns and shatter him.
moving on lets talk pure strength not gonna lie hulk is one stong M****** F***** he is said he hold a planet from splitting into 2 and his strength depends on rage rage is caused my chemicals in the brain as hulk is a mutated human his still carries basic human function hence rage chemicals in brain. lets talk superman now he can moves planets use his flight and sure strength he is also said to be holding two black holes in the param of his hands stopping an entire universe from being destroyed also when superman prime went up against monarch and ripped open his armour let out pure energy that destroyed a universe only superman remained and countless other times where superman and shown strength far beyond the hulk.
bascially superman wins every single time
also superman prime no magic or kyrpotnyite effects him he had no weakness
eat that bitches
i meant speed lets start with speed *
hulk is stronger than superman by miles
Superman vs. The Hulk wouldn’t just be a battle of strength. That would be like saying DC vs. Marvel and the only people who can participate in the battle are those with super strength and flight. Both Superman and Hulk have other powers, you know. Superman does have something Hulk doesn’t have, though. Super-speed. It has been shown in the comics that Superman can avoid bullets “just as easily as lawn furniture”. True story. The Hulk would definitely lose to that.
Oh, and those people who keep using Doomsday as evidence that Superman would lose, please stop looking at Doomsday as someone similar to the Hulk. Unlike the Hulk, Doomsday is extremely fast. Sure, the Hulk can run very fast, but that’s pretty much all the speed he’s got. Doomsday caught Flash using only his quick reflexes. And Flash was running that time at super-speed. That’s why Superman couldn’t use his super-speed as an advantage against him.
superman died in the hands of doomsday
black bolt is much as strong as superman and gladiator but sentry is stronger than superman but hulk defeated them by his own hands and with his anger with him so the hulk wins
=)
superman can breath in space nuff said absorb enough sun boom launch hulk into space
You f***ing idiot superman wins every time,Hulk gets FASTER,STRONGER, a better healing factor,and a harder skin the angrier he gets.
Dude,Hulk was thrown to the core of the sun before and he got out of it with no scratch or burnt,he just got stronger.
Superman’s Laser eyes are nothing compared to the Sun.
Freezing Hulk won’t kill him,he was froze before a million times and always breaks out.
Superman sure outfasts Hulk,but Hulk gets faster with anger.
Same goes for strength,Hulk can keep getting stronger till he reaches Superman’s class and beats him.
hulk is strongest there is
If there really was gonna be a fight wouldn’t Superman realize that Hulk is only putting up a fight because of his anger ? I’m pretty sure Superman would out think Hulk then kill him. And which superman is everyone using as a basis ? Because there are some immortal ones.
“hulk kicks super-man’s ass”, has a point. Hulk fights up to his opponent. The stronger the opponent, the greater Hulk is. Superman has died before in source, when has that happened to the Hulk outside of made-for-TV films, rather than canon? No matter what Supe’s brings, Hulk will answer it with greater force. Hulk was designed to counter Superman in every way, and he does.
As, David said. Hulk is strongest there is. You can’t check rage.
The Hulk Wins!!!
hurting Bruce Banner is not a good idea he would simply regenerate and turn into hulk
totally agree, its not like superman is the most brilliant strategist in the world, plus this is a head to head competition, if the Hulk its all pissed off and smashing up down-town, Supes isnt gona sit there and wait for him to calm down hes gona atack him and the hulks gona give superman a close up view of his fist. and yes hulk is the strongest there is.
Its true. Both Hulk and Superman have insane power. I myself think it would be a tie. The Superman we speak of would never kill the Hulk, No matter what, while the Hulk has attempted to kill someone (Thor). Superman would knock Hulk around for a while, but thanks to his Regenrative abilities, he would continue to come back. Him being constantly knocked around would only get him angrier, and he would begin to rise in strength. Now some say Superman would just avoid him with his superspeed. I disagree. His leg strength would also increase, making him much faster. Now at this point, people will say, He will fly hulk into space. Once more, I disagree. People have tried that with Hulk, and Hulk has forced them back down into the atmosphere, and that made him angrier, and Hulk has beat them sensless. If you wish to add on, please do. At this point, I say it is a stalemate.
Andre, addressing one of your comment a while back, Superman didn’t do the things that Luke was saying he would do to the Hulk during the Doomsday fight is because he had to lose and die. It was part of the storyline the writers needed him to die. Don’t bring up that fight again it was to sell comics. Wouldn’t you buy a comic entitled “The Death of Superman” I know I would have HAD to buy that one.
to all dc fans marvel only needs telephathic characters like professor x,the leader and apocalypse they will erase every memory they got so they will lose =) LOL
I hope you hard core DC’ers will finally concede who will win in this “ficticious” debate, lol; if you really want o end this just go to the DC Marvel crossover mags and you will see that Superman was not able to pick up Thor’s hammer, and the Incredible Hulk has picked it up many times, I for one, think this puts an end to who will win, The Hulk hands down, nuff said, excelsior!
Luke,
You have won this debate hands down. This is the internet, where people don’t listen to facts, but they simply reiterate their ideas and reject reality. You have the actual comic books backing you up. Good job, man. The case is settled, and I am content with what I have found.
As for the rest of those in this debate, SLOWLY read Luke’s comic scans with an open mind. Superman does things I have NEVER seen Hulk do. 200 Quintillion tons beats 100 billion tons by quite a long shot. Hulk holds up half the earth, Supes splits a moon of Saturn by himself. Supes is faster than flash. He moves beyond the speed of light. His strength is unmatchable after he spends time in the sun. And the list goes on.
As for Andre’s last post, those dc vs marvel crossovers are fan-based wins, not actual capabilities.
Any conflicting opinions should be supported by scans, not rhetoric.
Mike Jones, Nice post but you forgot to mention that Superman was infected with a virus by Lex Luthor (watch Allstar Superman for the story) and then come back with the real (ficticious) facts. In his non-infected form Superman is not lifting 200 quin, and who says the Hulk cannot lift 200 quin, it has never been put before him, would you agree? It has been proven that the Hulk has no limit to his power, so no limit means, NO LIMIT! Also, if you want something that is not fan based explain why Superman was not able to lift Mjolnir and The Hulk does it repeatedly?You would have to admit that picking up Thor’s hammer is a true test of strength that transcends Marvel and DC. If you want to make this somewhat fair you have to bring all the facts not just part of the facts. I like your style Mike Jones keep bringing it. Also, go to http://marvel.wikia.com/Hulk_(Robert_Bruce_Banner) to get a true list of the Hulks powers and untapped capabilities.
If anyone would read marvel’s definition of the hulks powers you would see that he too has super speed. Its just that as he gets angrier and faster the power in his legs causes the ground to shatter underneath him with each step. So in theory not only could he easily become as strong as supes but he also can become just as fast in hand speed and reflexes thereby nullifying the speed factor. Hulk is in a class of his own, just as others stated the 300 quintillion or whatever tons supes can lift has never been presented to the hulk. If they had a benching contest and hulk couldn’t immediately match him, he would get pissed and throw the 300 quintillion ton weight into the next county. So ends supes, he has limits. He CANNOT win against someone who has limitless anything. It was also stated the hulk can regenerate missing limbs and vital organs as well as survive underwater and in the vaccum of space with his gland that, produced by sheer force of will and anger by the way, indefinitely. Shit for all we know hulk might get so mad and fed up with supes he’ll will himself into some kryptonite
Picking up Thor’s hammer isn’t really a test of strength. It’s about who is worthy and the Marvel writers obviously don’t want Superman picking it up. That’s not really an arguing point because it’s not about strength.
Soooo, Carter, what you are saying is an enraged Hulk is worthy of picking up Thor’s hammer as he is pummeling Thor? It is about strength, in this sense. Don’t forget Wonder Women did pick up his Hammer because of the family connection. What is a test of strength for The Hulk and Superman minus any other versions of them both, that will give us a true measure of who is more powerful? Looking at Supermans and The Hulks feats of strength they seem equal in a relatively calm state?
It has nothing to do with being able to pummel Thor or strength. Superman is more than strong enough to do it it’s just only certain people can pick it up. Wonder Woman because of her connection to the Gods. Hulk because he is a Marvel character and the writers want him to be able to do it. Superman has more than enough strength, the writers just don’t want him to pick it up.
To be able to answer your question about “feats of strength” you first need to let me know which Superman you are putting against which Hulk and it has to be fair.
Carter, Regular Green Hulk vs. Regular Superman! Also, do you believe the Hulk couls lift 200 quin like Superman? Remember Super man was infected with a virus wheb he lifted 200 quin.
Hulks strength transcends everything. He hasn’t lifted the quintillion tons because it’s never been placed in front of him. Just as you stated, carter, the writers say he has limitless strength so there is no equal. Hulk is an indestructible force of nature and superman, with all of his outstanding credentials, will fall to him.
It’s not an argument of who’s strength is greater it’s about who would win a battle and having more raw strength doesn’t mean that someone would win.
Superman has unlimited strength? So does the hulk, plus unlimited regenerating abilities, and just wait for him to turn back into Bruce Banner? it’s not that easy, especially if Bruce Banner lost full will power of the hulk. Plus he granted the hulk full control, so he can transform in and out whenever he wants, because he learned to control it. so its not that easy.
And Super Mans moving faster than light is pointless since he would be traveling backwards anyways, so that shouldn’t even be counted xD.
The hulk can withstand heat of the sun and then much much much more. He can get faster and faster, and stronger as he gets angrier, also his regeneration abilities increase as he gets angrier. Superman moving fast as light would be traveling back in time, which would be pretty much useless. The hulk can just thunder clap him away if superman is traveling really fast, plus, his thunder clap can shatter planets, and then some also. and then lets say Bruce Banner lost full control of the hulk, the hulk would be even stronger than his is now, and pretty much be invincible so yea. that’s pretty much all I have to say.
Hulk wins
hulk wins barely by a close victory. Superman uses his abilities(laser eyes or whatever, ice breathe, etc) on the hulk which basially only slow him down but gives superman the advantage but as we all know the hulk get angrier therfore his strength, speed and healing come into play. In a toe to toe punch out the hulk wins by far. Supiess speed and flight make this a good fight cause he can pick hulk up and punch him acros the world and repeat but both sides of this should know that hulk won’t be out for the count.
That’s where your wrong. Raw strength is exactly what would determine the outcome. All of supes other powers are easily negated. It would come down to who could hit who harder, and hulk wins each time.
Hulk his da best
His other powers do matter. It doesn’t matter how strong the Hulk is if he can’t see or catch Superman to hit him. And don’t say that it didn’t help against Doomsday because Doomsday had Superspeed too.
Ok lets lay it down real quick. Superman is a great all rounder but no matter what he has nothing on hulk. Hulk has taken many energy blasts from characters emitting high amounts of energy or projectiles i.e Thor, Ironman, Dr Doom ect. So lets forget Supermans heat lazers eyes. Freezing the hulk has proven to be a fail at so many different times so forget Supermans cold breath. So whats it down to then, strength and speed. Hulks strength starts on par with supermans (for all you fools who think its lower) the angrier he gets its like a +5 for each of his skills, abilities and general strength not to mention speed and shock waves he may emit. Supermans is at a set amount, no increase unless he comes in contact with more yellow sun ray. Problem with that is if he has too much he will die. Hulks strength has gotten so high he both held and broke the f***ing space time continum with a single punch and yet still it hasnt shown to stop increasing. Hulk can adapt to ANY condition within an instant, if they were fighting near high traces of radiation harmful to both hulk would adapt and superman would be screwed. All in all it would be a good fight but no matter how you swing it even if superman tried to calm hulk down there is only one person that can truly calm the hulk and that is Betty Ross. Everyone else seems to be patronising towards him. Also if superman used his speed eventually hulks anger will enable him to catch him so theres still no argument. Either way you see it Hulk is victorious.
Oh yeah also hulk was kicked out of hell by loki’s daughter meaning he is not allowed back in. That says a lot.
Among his big feats are supporting a falling 150 billion ton mountain using leverage[169], ripping through a bunker designed to withstand an explosion of thousands megatons in magnitude[170], eventually overpowering the Invisible Woman, Thing and Human Torch[171], defeating the Fantastic Four[172], defeating several X-Men[173], figthing against the Scarlet Witch(prior to House of M) and Wonder Man, Iron Man and Vision, while the narration states that Hulk’s power is even greater than their combined might[174], matching the Super Adaptoid after he acquired the power of 100 heroes like Vision and Iron Man[175], fighting against the West Coast’s and East Coast Avengers teams during a prolonged period of time despite being well weakened due to separation from Bruce Banner[176], almost breaking the East Coast and threating to break the planet by the sheer emission of force from his body[146], destroying the Crypto Man after he was boasted with high physical strength above Thor’s [177], overpowering Thor[178], pushing spheres of matter and antimatter apart[179], holding together the tectonic plates of an entire planet[52], overcoming a field of pure energy with enough power to change the orbit of a planet[46], destroying an asteroid twice the size of Earth with a single punch due mainly to his greater toughness and to the impulse generated by the contraction of his legs[180], with the tremendous energy becoming work, overcoming a power-draining mechanism which contained much of the combined power of himself, the Doctor Strange, the Silver Surfer and Namor [181], holding together the entire space-time structure to impede the Defenders of being sucked into a fissure [119], smashing adamantium [165][182], breaking up the space-time continuum [86], ripping out a spetacular device designed to fight against the Celestials[183], and to overcome Onslaught’s strength by neutralizing an immobilization [130](who was at least Celestial level in raw power[184]). Unlike what some believe, the last feat was accomplished by the Classic Savage Hulk, since the Hulk is not physically separated from Banner and he speaks in the third person. Thor himself stated that the Hulk could be stronger[185]. The Hulk also grows stronger the more radiation[55][186][187][188] and dark magic[189] catalysed.
Incredible Hulk Vol 1 #135 i think it is relating the breaking the space time continuum.
Carter, the Hulk has superspeed, check the powers of the Hulk: Superhuman Speed: Regardless of his size, Hulk’s superhumanly strong legs allow him to run at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete (about 700 mph). Nevertheless, this does not grant him any enhanced reflexes or agility as smaller foes exploit his size and use it to their advantage. However, he has been fast enough to catch mortar shells shot at him.
Once again, if Superman is so fast and his speed will keep him from harm, why was he killed by Doomsday, who is a pathetic version of the HUlk?
gamma beats hydrogen/helium. go hulk!
check out my pg on fb called marvel vs. dc under fictional characters
for those of you stating that the hulk is much stronger than doom’s day you are wrong.
when the hulk comics were released the hulk was barley able to life a car. recently all the comic book heroes have been buffed up.
super man would simply fly the hulk into space and be done with it. superman can fly around in space and the hulk cant so he would eventually calm down and die
hulk
i believe supes would beat the hulk because of his speed. all it would take is for superman to drown him or suffocate him, imagine superman driving hulk down to the center of the earth.
hulks power is from gamma rays and supermans is from the sun, hydrogen and helium(as someone noted above). and gamma rays are more powerful than helium and hydrogen(the sun) HULK WINS!
Can you read Andre?
Yes, Carter I can read, why!
Superman would win, there’s just so much he can do to give him a tactical advantage over The Hulk.
You dumbasses Superman fan boys.
Hulk has super-speed,if we use logic,Hulk’s muscles get stronger as he gets anger,so his leg muscles would make him faster.
Therefor,unlimited speed.He can catch supes if he’s mad enough.
Now we all must admit that they both are immortals,but not true immortals.
Immortals are people who can live forever except if someone kills them,but a true immortal can live forever AND can’t be killed.
Hulk and Super man aren’t true immortals.
Besides,Hulk lifted any weight in front of him.
Take anything against him and he’ll win.
The tougher and stronger the fighter,the more chances of him getting killed because fighting Hulk harder just makes him angry.
And if you manage to hurt him,your chances of being killed are as high as a baby getting killed with a shotgun.
Exactly. Who is to say that hulk cant lift the however many quintillion tons that supes can lift? He hadn’t had to but he also hasn’t failed at doing something as simple as lifting. On marvel’s official website super-speed is listed in hulks powers. It states specifically he has the capacity for super-speed due to his increases in anger. He chooses to use leaping as a more effective way of travel because when he runs at super speeds the ground crumbles beneath his feet. Simply put, hulk has no limits where superman does. Once he hits that limit hulk will jus go harder and pummel him.
I would go with tie but more on Hulk for winner:
If battle took during day: Superman would win, he needs solar to stay full energy.
If battle took during night: Hulk would win, with superman no solar: losing energy and Hulk keep raging.
Most important of all and you all forget one thing: Hulk would win easy, even nothing will stop him if Superman said “I am the strongest there is.” There..oppppps. Game over Superman, u maxed Hulk’s angry which has no knowing strength and hulk will stop at nothing until Hulk proves Superman that he is the strongest there is.
one hulk speed isnt unlimited he has a terminal velocity due to friction and iineffeciency build up as the floor can take only a limited amount of pounding from his legs which isnt up to quicksilver who is way slower than flash (superman is roughly flash speed). Superman toe to toe in the beginning is way stronger than hulk. hulk is strong but he cant lift continenta at base strength. remember superman lifted apokolips roughly 4- 5 times earth . also superman reaction time and mix and mash powers up will prove difficult for the hulk. hulk is ridiculously strong but he”s been taken down by wolverine. superman can only be defeated by wolverine level like character with strategy and planning not a fist fight.so i give it to superman
also the gamma radiaition and kryptonite highly irrelevant superman is weak against kryptonite. not gamma radiaiton
also supes is more awesome and iconic noway would any sane person allow something that powerful fall to a mindless beast
note altho using some extended wikipedia page to write down all of hulk achievements superman has done some just as badass and much worse so thats highy offpoint.
supermans weakest incarnation base strength is 800000 tons . hulks strongest future versions base strength is 150tons and that one had been doused by extra amounts of radiation and he absolutely handed hulk hid ass. ho would u say the 70 ton pumping proffesor hulk will win. also the current superman is way stronger he can move planets hod black holes with one arm. hes taken a punch from flash who when at full speed shunted his MASS to infinity and still was up, albeit shaken badly. if hulk tries to tank that hes dead.also hulk can be killed in a battle against red hulk he was impaled. next superman can shatter planets with blows carry things and constructs that are far bigger and denser than earth.also note superman holds back considerably. he is CONFIRMED as being exceeding darkseid’s strength considerably, even darkseid admits its because of superman self restraint. plus supermans heat vision has evapourated massive bodies of waters in seconds and hes also frozen rivers in seconds too. NOW TO BE HONEST HULK IS F***NG STRONG But before he reaches supermans level it woud be over.also i beieve hulks limitless strength doesnt make sense he absorbed a limited amount of energy and gained limitless power. the power he absorbed isnt close to a sun. so i do belive hes strength has an upper limit
I never got the chance to read comic books cause where i’m from we dont have any,but i’ve seen cartoons,movies etc. so i’m gonna relate to those.
Luke you say that Hulk got hurt by Wolverine like it’s an enbarrassment but maybe u dont realize that there aren’t many superheroes or villains that can kill Wolverine,he’s more idestructible than Hulk or Superman.
There are a lot of things to take in consideration in a fight between Hulk and Supes beside their power,like people,intelligence,The Fortress of Solitude etc.
If they would fight in an area with people Hulk would have the advantage but Superman already has a big advantage in his intellect and he could also use the Fortress for help.
But if you put these guys on a planet with no inhabitants,with yellow sun,no kryptonite and for Superman to not know the real identity of Hulk so he can fight him without morality problems then i think that the chances for Superman to win are below zero.
Even if Hulk were to revert to Bruce Banner we all know it only takes a push for him to change into Hulk.
So i think that Hulk would win,no contest against Superman because his anger has no limits therefore his power has no limits and if by some miracle he would be able to use his intelligence then nothing would stop him.
HULK SMASH SUPERMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually we’ve seen this fight, at the very end of World War Hulk. Hulk v Sentry.
For those not familiar with Marvel, The Sentry is the most powerful superhero in the Marvel universe. He’s a cracked out Superman if Superman ever realized just how scary his powers make him (what happens when you fly at light speed in earths atmosphere? ick.) .
They called in the Sentry, despite his objections, because he is the Ace in the hole, the only one who has more sheer raw power then the Hulk. When they clashed, the Sentry knew his opponent, knew what was at stake.
They fought.
They slagged half of midtown doing it, despite focusing all of their considerable power inward on each other. In the end, Robert (Sentry’s alter ego) thanked Banner/Hulk (’cause they had become one, balance form) and then passed out.
Superman wouldn’t, couldn’t be prepared for that fight. It’s not how he thinks, it’s not how he fights. Because at end of it all, Superman is a child’s dream( and the child in me will always love that), flying on wings of hope and honor. He has the strength to survive. But he was given it.
The Hulk is always prepared to fight, because he is always fighting himself. He is the monster, the nightmare inside of all. He is the anger, the frustration, the fear, the sense of injustice. He has the strength, not to survive, but to overcome.
When Superman has spent half his life shaking at the thought of what he’s capable of, and still get up and save the world, and getting punched in the face for his trouble, maybe then he’ll be strong enough to bet Hulk.
comparing poundage ain’t nothing because feats of lifting great weight and such is done on a regular basis and the weight scale stops at (in excess of)100 ton class because you don’t bother counting up pounds. let the comics speak or themselves. The Hulk is a raging monster powered by massive amounts of gamma rays. He does not get tired and physical stress just makes him generates(absorbing the ambient energy needed) more gamma power to fuel his strength. His state of mind contributes to the stress level also and we all now the sayings: Getting tired? The Hulk never tires!I can only get stronger! the longer hulk fights the stronger Hulk gets!The madder hulk gets the stronger hulk gets! Hulk Smash!! Hulk is strongest there is!!!
Wow the hulk cause supper man not fighting the hulk come on that would only make him more mad witch would make him more strong as it says up top hulk can withstand the sun so heat blast dont mater supper speed can let supper man get more hits but inturn make the hulk more strong an sense the more mad the hulk gets the more energy he gets so fighting him for long points of time would be no problem for the hulk but for supper man he would get tried over time and his freeze breath is usless beacuse the hulk can bust out or jump away from it
(I haven’t really read the comics with the cross overs)
In a real fight between the two i dont think either hero would know each others weaknesses so pointing out that super man is vulnerable to kryptonite and the absence of a yellow sun or that the hulk cant breathe in space and needs anger, high emotion, to fight is unfair. if the two meet it would be pretty extreme circumstances, two different universes coming into contact, so i don’t think either will know much of anything besides the obvious about each other.
That being said a lot of the above scenarios wouldn’t happen. instead of being bias to your favorite hero i think we should think of a real scenario and stop posting hyped up stats that seem to be very circumstantial for example:
the super speed argument: obviously the hulk has strong legs but that is not what super speed is. Even if he can run 700 mph how fast can he accelerate to that speed? even if both heros have the same max speed the hulks overwhelming size cripples his ability to accelerate(change speed) in a small amount of space so superman can achieve a higher speed in a smaller amount of space due to his relatively small body but other argument suggesting that superman is faster then flash is ridiculous if the flash is vibrating his molecules then supes can’t beat him in speed
super strength arguments: if you take the defining characteristics(where their power comes from) of superman and the hulk both have unlimited strength but in a real world scenario superman will not have just absorbed a bunch of solar radiation when he goes to fight the hulk so the 2 or 3 hundred quintilion ton thing is circumstantial so the hulk would win in strength if superman fights him unprepared because he has a limit
Healing factor and other arguments: the hulk has fast regenerating abilities superman doesn’t it is that simple in a regular scenario if the two met hulk would have the advantage because eventually no matter how invulnerable or strong superman is the hulk would eventually reach or surpass his strength level and he would be able to hurt him regardless of super speed fatigue is a major factor for superman but not one for the hulk a side effect of cell regeneration is very good stamina
in the end i think the hulk would win
THIS IS A SCENARIO BETWEEN REGULAR GREEN HULK AND REGULAR SUPERMAN ANY OTHER HYPED UP VERSION OF SUPERMAN USUALLY ARE REALLY CIRCUMSTANTIAL AND ANY OTHER VERSIONS OF THE HULK ARE IRRELEVANT BECAUSE THE TITLE SAYS SUPERMAN vs. THE HULK NOT PROFESSOR HULK OR RED HULK OR ANY OTHER VERSION OF THE HULK
Superman definitely! He just floats at a safe distance somewhere in the outer atmosphere while the Hulk wastes all his energy trying to jump and catch him!!!
Alright ive been waiting for this. My money is on Hulk all the way. See the hulk has NO set limit of power, his power is his rage. And since there is basiclly no cap on Anger or rage, the hulk has pretty much endless power. See people on here are saying Superman could blind the hulk with his super speed. However the hulk has been known to have great reflexes and be very durable. If Superman were to fly at the hulk with super speed, the hulk could easily catch him and land bone crushing punches on him. And the more punches he throws the angrier he gets, which means every punch would be stronger. Also, Superman’s heat vision and freeze breath would be useless because the hulk has been able to withstand nuclear explosions, tempetures equal to the core of the sun, and he has even started to breathe water on occasion. Another thing the Hulk has unmatched enduranced. In WW Hulk he basiclly fought the whole Marvel Universe, and when he was done he barley broke a sweat. And even if Superman somehow injured the hulk, he can regenerate his tissue at an unbeliviable rate, making it almost impossible to hurt him. Overall the Hulk is basiclly Raw Power. He may not be able to take down people such as the Silver Surfer or Galactus, or people that have magic or cosmic powers, but I think he would beat Superman in a fight.
Nice one Les, I agree. In the crossover mag Superman hit the Hulk with the full force of his heat vision and the hulk did not blink. If the hulk can stand The Human Torch’s hottest Supernova ay 1 million degree’s and the Sun heat, Superman’s heat vision does not have a chance.
