Why? He did the same in the myths. Hes a magical being.
"Thor being pierced by bullets"
Thats bad writting.
"Thor struggling to lift a Sky Scraper"
Low showing. Everyone has them. Its a way to lower guys that could practically destroy the earth with theyr figths.
"Spiderman beating Fire Lord"
Bad/sloppy writting. And Firelord wasent figthing back iirc.
"Abomination beating up the Hulk and then loosing against everyone else he has ever fought."
Same thing with Darkseid. Lost of respect from the writers.
"God force defeating Galactus"
A hungry galactus. That time at Marvel there was no cube beings and Celestials or whatever. Mephisto and the Skyfathers wer the next big thing. Even tho if you mean being driven away of Asgard as defeated, yeah.
"Grey Hulk destroying an Asteroid twice the size of a planet"
This one i actually dont get. Weakest Hulk ever pulls this one, but we dont see stronger versions doing it? A one time feat for me.
"Hercules Lifting the Earth"
Myth feat with a hero of magical roots. He didnt held it forever tho, not even close. Just the enought time to get what he wanted.
I don't claim that it didn't happen, It just its not consistent with his other displays. Maybe unrealistic is the word i mean. I don't mean realism in a traditional sense. I mean the distorted realism that is applied to comics. E.G. If Batman punched and Knocked out Superman (without the help of any exterior elements). One would generally conceive this as unrealistic.
Well played Olympian you have successfully countered everyone of my examples. I wish the 'Lifting the Heavens' and the 'Midgard Serpent' where more consistent with their other displays though. I mean characters can still be power houses without moving objects the size of planets. Also its ironic how the Thor sky scraper incident with Thor is seen by many as one of his more impressive power displays.
P.S. T- Bolts rock. I think they are trying to make Atlas the new Hulk.

On the subject of explosives knocking out the Hulk. Frank had had Bruce Banner hostage for a couple weeks. He'd kept him sedate and forced him to eat his "stew" so he'd get nice and strong. The "stew" contained explosives and a radio-controlled detonator. When he turned Hulk, Frank set off the few pounds of explosives in his tummy. That would hurt anyone.
it can cut any object in the multiverse.....it can even cut abstract concepts like time and stuff....he once made a wormhole in the fabric of space-time by simply cutting it with his claws....
Okay I know adamantium is the hardest metal (alloy) in the Marvel universe. I can't remember if it's referred to as the hardest substance, if it isn't then the hardest known mineral, diamond, could still be harder. Hardness isn't a well defined physical property anyway - traditionally relative hardness was used, where if substance A scratches substance B, then substance A is harder than B. Quantitative hardness is complicated.
Adamantium should be able to scratch any substance if it is the hardest known substance in the MU. However in order to pierce a substance a hard material must be projected with sufficient net force. Whether or not Wolverine with his enhanced human strength can put sufficient force behind a stabbing motion to pierce the Hulk is imo dubious.
i am not......he once cut a wormhole.....in space-time to escape from thanos the mad titan....thanos himself stated that the claws...could manipulate reality better then the god dam space gem
