On a world where his strength was nothing, where his skin could be pierced by iron and wood, and even a knight's young apprentice could physically humble him, the Hulk's strength increases to the point that he is able to hold his own with the adult knights before being overwhelmed by weapons and numbers. Also note Hulk’s increased durability and -presumably- healing rate. The adult knights wail on Hulk with spiked maces and an ax yet Hulk not only survives but shows little harm. IH 302-303

II. DURABILITY AND STAMINA
A. Durability
High Evolutionary was able to knock the wind out of an augmented Hercules. But the Hulk… AVENGERS Annual #17
http://files.photojerk.com/Jonathan...ry-AVANN17a.jpg
Compare the above with how Hercules, whose power had been augmented by the Evolutionary’s evolution chamber, fared a few pages later...
http://files.photojerk.com/Jonathan...ry-AVANN17b.jpg
Even in the early days, the Hulk was said capable of surviving anything short of nuclear attacks. IH #5

Zzzax cannot consume the Hulk as he does others. IH #183
http://files.photojerk.com/Jonathan...Zzzax-IH183.jpg
For you Handbook quoters, the Handbook states that the Hulk will freeze at temperatures below -190 F. Here, Hulk is put in a fluid maintained at -250 F. They believe that the cold would paralyze the Hulk if he somehow awakens... But once the gas is cut off, the Hulk gets up right away. IH #186

Hulk is able to withstand radiation levels that kayoes the Thing and Heroes Reborn "Thor" and close a reactor door they failed to close. It's gamma, I think, so he may have been at an advantage... or a disadvantage. Gamma's got a mixed history of helping or hurting Hulk. AVENGERS vol. 2 #? (Credit: Mastermold)

VI. UNUSUAL ABILITIES
A. Mystical
The Hulk can sense the presence of magic and track its emanations.
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/8595/mysticsense5ho.jpg
Deep underground, the Hulk senses the approach of the Vision from above. IH #128
http://img54.echo.cx/img54/6928/mystical085fz.jpg
Separated from Banner, the Hulk is able to track his movements no matter how much distance separates them. IH #131
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/4463/followbanner0kc.jpg
Somehow the Hulk is able to perceive sorcerous nature. IH #308
http://img53.echo.cx/img53/8936/mystical021vb.jpg
the Hulk needs no map to locate the site of the original G-Bomb no matter where his starting point is due to the Maestro's spirit calling to him, which he has heard for years. IH #314 and 460
http://img53.echo.cx/img53/7569/mystical069qs.jpg
http://img84.exs.cx/img84/7689/maestrospirit5tg.jpg
The Hulk tunnels directly towards his target without having to check his bearings. The Vision says Hulk's sense of direction is almost supernatural. IH #445
http://img84.exs.cx/img84/9030/senseofdirection7hd.jpg
According to a conversation with the Maestro (which may or may not actually have been occuring), the Hulk will always resurrect. IH #460
http://img84.exs.cx/img84/4021/resurrect3xx.jpg
As Bruce Banner or the Hulk, he can see astral forms. IH #370, 426, and IH vol. 2 #82
http://img53.echo.cx/img53/8946/mystical049yd.jpg
http://img53.echo.cx/img53/7448/mystical035hd.jpg
http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/...stical117iu.jpg
The Hulk first hears the Thanos clone and then begins to perceive him. HULK/X-MAN Annual 1998
http://img78.exs.cx/img78/3881/thanosclone9ff.jpg
The Hulk senses that all is not what it appears. DEF #34
http://img110.exs.cx/img110/644/nebulon11tw.jpg
Is it just really good aim or is it a part of his "bordering on supernatural" sense of direction? MARVEL FANFARE #7
http://img145.exs.cx/img145/2135/aim7tx.jpg
B. Breathing Underwater And Speaking In A Vacuum
IH #129
IH #138
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6/underwater7wr.jpg
IH #145
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/1637/destroyer14vz.jpg

Speaking in a vacuum? What the? IH #112
http://img96.exs.cx/img96/8583/vacuum7ha.jpg
Hulk can adapt to any environment. IH vol. 2 #90
http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/4947/vacuum9ll.jpg
C. AFFECTING ENERGY?
Although not a power normally associated with him, the Hulk has had some interesting moments where he physically affected energy. Here's a few that I have scanned. Is it pure silliness, reality-altering strength ( ), or evidence of an as yet unexplored ability? You be the judge. "Just the facts, ma'am."
The Hulk deflects a gamma bombardment. IH #128
Hulk smash puny energy! IH #242
http://img143.exs.cx/img143/4599/energy5mz.jpg
The Hulk again deflects a gamma bombardment. IH #270
http://img159.exs.cx/img159/7558/galaxymaster29qf.jpg
The Hulk is able to lift and throw a being of pure energy. IH Annual #5
http://img78.exs.cx/img78/7231/blip28zw.jpg
