They pull on an unbreakable rope, standing on indestructible terrain.

Which side wins?

The 2 princes.

Thor and Hercules are pulling when suddenly the entire rope goes entirely o superman and wonderwomans side

Both are flying and are disqualified by panel judges whobaccuse superman of flying and using superspeed to win.

Superdickery gives marvel the win.

Rage.Of.Olympus
No flying involved? Team 2 all day.

Generally a tie. Circumstances may side one team over the other. The balance of physical power is essentially equal, as Diana is classically as strong as Hercules, and Superman and Thor are in the same class in direct strength vs. strength (though Supes can apply his strength in ways Thor can't readily, but that doesn't apply here).

Hardly.

Even in the worst case scenario, Diana = Herc, Superman is still a little stronger than Thor. Team 1 still wins.

iceman24567
Diana = Herc not so much all are stronger than Diana

Sasaraixx
The gods would disagree.

? Diana has demonstrated consistantly, in multiple comic "re-interpretations" over the decades, as being "as strong as Hercules", and certainly over the past decade or so as being nearly as strong as Superman, to the extent that they can be functionally considered equals in terms of raw strength/power under normal circumstances (as Supes himself acknowledged in "The Circle" and in stories after that). While not wanting to get down to the nitty-gritty of who can exactly lift "x" weight, Diana=Hercules, in general strength, and Supes and Thor are more or less equal (any "god-power" advantage Thor may have, contextually, not readily applying in a scenario like this one). Like I said, a tie, assuming no "cheating" occurs (flight, power-counter attacks, et al).

Not really. I'm assuming this is Hercules at the level that his equal to Thor. Meaning I'd rank them as....

Superman = Thor =/> Hercules > Diana

But that depends on how you view their fights. Does Thor get dragged down to Hercules' level or does Hercules get dragged up to Thor's level?

I view Diana as being stronger than Hercules. In her exact power description by D.C. she is blessed with strength greater than that of Hercules.

Now some may say the the greek Hercules is not the same as the Hercules of Marvel or the Hercules that CM is based off of. Well I can't speak for the former the certainly CM is indeed based off the greek Hercules. Otherwise, why would D.C. show the actual greek Hercules when CM obtains his power, and why would D.C. use the name Hercules for CM's strength power instead another name (like the one BA uses)?

As for the former (Marvel Hercules) we can only use feats to determine who is stronger. So based off one of Diana's greatest feats, I calculated her to exert the force of the weight of the Earth.

Both have the strength feats to match either, and both are so close stating one is stronger than the other might as well depend on who you like more so yea, I might as well take that stance.

Completely baseless.

By the way, Thor has the feats to match each of Superman's.

Oh my god, Superman moved a planet with help! ohno

Thor and Hercules were generating enough force to move the planet out of orbit while arm wrestling.....

According to best feats,
Thor maxes out in the mid to high hundreds of millions of tons. Superman exceeded 50 earth weights of force several times.

Thor and Hercules were generating enough force to move the planet out of orbit while arm wrestling..... The Thor Herc feat was not part of the canon. It was for fun. Also Thor and Herc took many hours to move the Earth out of orbit. That means they were exerting a much smaller force than the weight of the planet (the acceleration was small). And since it was 2 of them then each was exerting half of that force.

Not really. Thor has the feats to match Superman.

Seeing as how Thor shrugged off the weight/force of half the planet on top of him, making it one of the most impressive quantifiable feats out there, I highly doubt so.

When was this?

Where was this stated? As far as I know it has not, so in that case stop coming up with your own bullshit and passing it off as fact anytime someone brings up a Thor feat that messes with your illogically perceived limit to Thor's strength.

Where does it state it they were wrestling for many hours? They were only wrestling for moments. It stated that because they are immortal the stalemate can go on for hours, days, years, decades, centuries etc.

They never did so.

Not really.

You have no problem bringing up Superman moving the planet, and his never moved a planetary body alone, ever, and you're complaining about me bringing this up?

I go with Superman > Thor = Hercules > Wonder Woman. Ok now for all you Wondy die hards, calm down before you throw a tantrum. The differences are marginal so they all still belong in the same class. When I say Superman > Thor, it's not substantial in a way that he is cearly and very much superior to him. That goes for Thor > Wonder Woman as well. With that said, I'm gonna go with a stalemate. The combinations given here lead me to believe that this will be more of an endurance battle. I don't think one group is so much stronger than the other that there would be an early winner in this contest. I think it depends on which group will tire faster. That's usually the case in a tug of war anyway.

Thor and Hercules were generating enough force to move the planet out of orbit while arm wrestling..... Moving a planet is far different than shaking the axis enough to rock it out of it's natural orbit.

Like a car getting stuck in snow, and people pushing trying to rock it till it gets traction and can go versus lifting it up and carrying it back to the road.

Eh? It was stated that they were literally generating enough force to literally knock the planet out of orbit. I.e they were generating enough force to literally move the planet out of it's orbit etc.

Now, I'm no expert on planet moving, but I thought the most impressive shtick of planet moving, was moving the planet out of it's orbit or something akin to that in regards to gravitational effects?

Not the same as saying, pulling a planet against the gravity of the sun or something.

You must defeat all evidence to destroy the argument. Defeating only one doesn't make the argument invalid. I argued other points about this feat as well. It is clear that they were struggling for a mightly long time. Hours is just a good guess since they both have incredible stamina and based of the narration. No I'm not complaining, except for the exaggerated fun factor not included in the original story. It is fair to bring it up as long as you know that Superman supplying even 1/3 of the force of the pulling still was greater than 50 Earth weights of force as my calculation shows. Imagine a force smaller than the weight of 1 Earth. Thor was supplying only half of that.

Animerican
superman once pulled a solar system to the other side of the galaxy.
superman and diana would win if it was vs thors dad and zeus with supermans strength alone.

Animerican
also superman is so fake that if he lost he could fly to the past and help hiself win the match.

BattleMage
It would be a very long match, But team 2 should end up pulling off a victory here. This seems to be Hercules type of game.

Animerican
superman would win because he is superman. even if diana mentrated all over the ground and rope to raise the stakes.

Are you using pre-crisis feats?

I'll note there's a couple sources, one of which is the Spectre, that says Diana is the second strongest being on earth behind Superman.

She's matched strength with Captain Marvel on occasion, who has the strength of Hercules, and of course, Hercules himself. So I'd say Diana being able to match Herc is fairly a given.

And Thor and Herc was not even trying to move the planet that's why it's so impressive.

Captain Marvel is Supermans equal and he can stack powers.

What does Wonder Woman matching DC Hercules in strength have to do with Marvel Herc?

I agree there is not a great distance strength wise. Do you think she's stronger than them?
do you list superman as way stronger?

the arm wrestling moving earth feat is even more impressive bacause it was only the strenght of 1 arm of each person. supes used all the muscles in his body with help....

Quote: "superman and diana would win if it was vs thors dad and zeus with supermans strength alone."

You don't really believe that do you Animerican?

Zeus or Odin could instantly amp themselves way beyond anyone in this thread. If some herald level type with monster strength could just walk up to a skyfather and over-power him with strength alone you wouldn't see them rule pantheons for thousands of years they'd be dropping like flies. Of course Odin is in limbo/void right now and Zeus hasn't hit puberty yet but that's neither here nor there smile.

Kasper Gutman
If we can kind a agree that this is a fairly close match. Wouldn't the fact that Superman being mortal and subject to fatigue that the other demi-gods and god here don't have to deal with make him the weak link if this tug-o-war lasted for weeks/months. Ooooh. For example, could Superman temporarily take over Atlas' burden...yes. Could he hold it up for multiple years...no.

Unless Superman is constantly exposed to fresh sunlight, I'd imagine his reserves would falter before Thor and Hercules would.
