I don't know. Wonderman have some amazing showings. I don't even know who's stronger out of Wonderman and Nova Prime or Namor. Do you consider Namor recent fight against Thing as a low showing.?

They're all about equal though technically Rider should be able to go much higher.

Not many feats of strength to go on for Rider, so it takes some detective work. His Nova corps file says his strength is incalculable. Marvel (which usually low sells strength levels) has his strength rating as a 7, which is above Namor's. Saal with the full Nova force was vastly stronger the likes of Wonder Man, Thing et al. But I just base it on the what I know about how his power works, the relative ease that he heaved that 100,000+ ton technarch, no selling Korg punching him, the ease with which he slapped Venom away, stalemated the surfer in their little grappling match without amping, etc. Taken all together it doesn't take a genius to extrapolate where he is in terms of strength. And that's before he even amps his power level.

I agree that Nova is strong as hell (technarch, the stuff he did on the planet Galactus was eating), but I'm p.sure Surfer won that grappling match, seeing as he pushed the two of them down onto the planet making a crater.

Nope. Nova was on top (hehe) so if any forcing was done it was by him.

Actual looking at it again, the second scan it looks like it perhaps can be a side view as well. Either way its clearly not Norrin forcing Nova down to the planet.

As a side note, I love the way that the art team depicted their clash. Nova's gravimetric energies contrasted with the Surfer's cosmic energies. They really nailed that scene.

carver9
So where would you rank Nova mills?

Just as his nova corps file explains and the books show, his strength is based on however much gravimetric energy he's channeling. The same power he uses to open warps, or whatever is the same that he can use for physical enhancement and really doesn't have a set limit. One minute he could be struggling against Xenith, another he can temporarily over power a technarch sire. But for the sake of battle boards the evidence is a bit more demanding then supplemental comic files and what not, So I'd say he operates on the level of a Namor more or less. However being that the Nova force is an open ended plot device they could write him one-shotting elite strong men and it'll be no shocker to people that know the mythos.

so you admit that WBH would melt all of these guys with a single indirect punch?

You think strength and durability are one in the same? There are a couple of guys on this list that could sleep through the force that melted Wendigo and company.

That's assuming that the Wendigo in the Dark Dimension is on par with the strongest incarnation ever.

well realistically, there is a correlation between strength and durability.

comics don't always heed to that, but they often seem to.

You're technically right, however as you said, its not always the case. Rhino was stronger than old school Nova, but still nearly ko'd himself running into Rich while Nova was knocked away and (while annoyed) was completely unharmed.

Seriously, do you think that's funny? I don't get the compulsion for some people to broadcast their misogyny as if it made anything but them look bad.

dmills
Uh oh.

8swords
are all of them at their prime or at their current case?.. coz rulk was kinda weakened now right? correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he lose some abilities, plus some of his strength?

dmills
I've heard people say as of late that he lost his ability to absorb all energy types and can now only do gamma energy. But I was reading his solo book before I dropped it and the only thing I read was that he doesn't do it for fear that he won't be able to return to his human form.

He lost the ability after Omegex storyline IIRC.

I really don't think he needed to be neutered to that extinct the threat of not being able to return to human form even when face with certain death was enough to stop him from using them.I would have love for them to find some way for him to use them but only in the most extreme of circumstances.

I agree. What's crazy to me is that unlike say, The sentry, I actually dig the character. Why are they turning him into a Ben Grimm 2.0 idk.

How do you have Nova behind Thing and Korg when Nova no sold Korg and has physically phucked up Thing level opponents even in his old school incarnation? Or Korg above Namor. Wonder man above Korg when Korg knocked him the eff out? Wonder Woman last lol. Strange rankings man.

Thing is a good writer took over from Loeb made Rulk into a likable character he had an idea of how he wanted to write him what he wanted to do with him.He depowered him a bit from Loebs crazy shit but gave us a legit reason for it he seems to be taking it a bit to far now IMO.


Sentry on the other hand was a pile of shit that nobody knew what to do with.I don't like the guy but you can only blame the Marvel this guy had a lot of potential an if the writer cant bring that out it is his fault.

Parker is a good writer, I just don't like Rulk in the role of glass cannon. If he's a heavy hitter let him be a heavy hitter. Not just another token strongman.
