"Superman has done far more impressive feats of strength and has a greater durability"
Superman has more feats. Thats it. more appearances get it?.
Durability probably a slighty edge. Immortal Hercules is up there as well. Bulletproff and all together with healing ability.
Stamina. Hercules has the edge, he never tires and Supes does.
Strenght. About the same.
Figthing skills. Big edge to hercules.
Speed. Big edge to Supes.
Very close fight but since its a slugfest and Hercules has the durabiity and stamina to take super fast punches from Supes, its the strengh+skill combo that will take place.
The skill thing is a big factor that i didn't really consider.
Although Supes has made more performances he does some impressive feat in every comic i have read. Which is not that many seeing we don't really get D.C. in jersey but it is far more than Herc has done.
I saw those scans the other day that you posted with Herc vs the Hulk and the fight waasn't really that impressive seeing it was arguably marves two strongest characters fighting each other. It was impressive compared to the usual Marvel fights but nothing compared to D.C.
Gender: Male Location: Planning to take over the WORLD!
yeah, i thought so. i think supes would probably win as well, but i think he's a lot more durable too. he's taken some mighty spectacular blows and herc's been knocked out by stuff that makes me shake my head . . .
Herc is always written as a jobber... That sucks... He's the Prince Of Power!!! He should be able to kick Superman's a$$.... But, Supes speed and overall powers would do him in. Supes takes this fight. But this is a slugfest, and if Herc is written at his full potential, he'd KO Supes.
On a pure slugfest speed means less than skills. And supes has nothing on skills compared with Herc. This is comics where speed isent that overkill. Lets not forget Herc has super speed too. Just not at Supes level.
"Which is not that many seeing we don't really get D.C. in jersey but it is far more than Herc has done"
Having 4 titles make that happen. he has feats Herc never had. And Herc has feats Supes never had. The only difference is quantity.
"herc's been knocked out by stuff that makes me shake my head . . ."
Like when he was mortal? Thats to be expected. Or you mean against guys with his power. Supes has been Ko by cap Marvel before as well. And by a has tank explosion. Or strained lifting a 747. Im going by average not theyr low showings. Heracles as far as durability has taken shots from Thors hamer in the head and kept going. Has taken shots from the Stranger and the same happened. Hulks punches even mortal and he was stil figthing. Not to mention both Nova and Firelords attacks at close range and only the cloathes wer burned.
"I saw those scans the other day that you posted with Herc vs the Hulk and the fight waasn't really that impressive seeing it was arguably marves two strongest characters fighting each other"
I see them like Supes and Cap marvel. Youll never see alot of damage in one to another because theyr practically the same. Itsthe background that gets busted. Herc and Hulk do the same thing. Neither bleeds or tired but the backgrounds go to hell.
But never kills in comics. Just ask Mongul and Doomsday
And with herc being immortal. Hes going to get up and going like duracell.
Eh i know the lack of speed is a diference but this is slugfest. Its the kind of fights the Hulk had advantage against Hyperion and Glads before. Both are in close combat. Its punches, kicks and durability most.
10 outa 10 its not going to happen. Top tier heroes dont and never won 10 out of 10 aainst each other. Even Wonder Woman who seems like supermans ***** lately has a win against a mind controled Superman.
'stonger = about the same
Durable = about the same'
'why? you think he's stronger or just a lot more durable?'
olympian mann i like u. Your a sound guy and you've made some really good points but those scans weren't that impressive!!
The art was pretty crappy and you couldn't really see any real destruction.
Superman regulary perform feats that are more impressive than this. And Herc has never shown he can survive anything like a nuke. This is something that everyone will agree that Supes can survive

Blame the artist not me and there is destruction. First fight the train trail was all busted. And two mountains wer used in that fight. The one where Animal Byrne Hulk fought Herc, they busted the city more with just 3/4 punches total that we see on panel.

Regularly yes. The guys has 4 titles. You gotta have feats in the middle of those. Thor and Hulk have both survived nuks. I dont see Thor being more durable than Herc. In fact he has bleed in one ocassion fighting the Hulk, while the green monster never made regular Herc bleed.
And in this one not only they exercited enough force to push that planet (not earth) ou of orbit. They totally destroyed the mountain plateu where they wer armwrstling. As you can see after all that they wer still at it without a clear winner.
'And in this one not only they exercited enough force to push that planet (not earth) ou of orbit. They totally destroyed the mountain plateu '
Yeh but you can't even see this. If the narrator didn't say it you wouldn't know.
This and the mathatan incident are the only noteable feats that Herc has performed.
JLA: World War Three story-line: Superman was chained to the endless millwheels of the Mageddon machinery. His strength was used to move the gears of a weapon whose size dwarfed the entire Earth/Moon system. Once again it dwarfed the entire Earth/Moon System.
In Superman: The Earth Stealers, Superman propelled a massive space station, cylindrical in shape and stated to be 600 miles in diameter (the length of the cylinder, judging by the depiction, had to have been about 2500 miles ) by pushing against it. The weight was inestimable- it was constructed from all the natural resources gleaned from an entire solar system. A hyperspace portal was opened and Superman not only pushed it, he propelled it for 20 minutes through hyperspace (it was stated that they reached the halfway point at 10 minutes). He had to exert the power to move it at the same time that he had to deal with the stresses of hyperspace unprotected.
JLA #77: Superman contains a black hole in the palm of his hand for an undisclosed amount of time. Later, he produces static electricity sufficient to be "corralled" by Green Lantern John Stewart into containing the black hole. Superman then launches the black hole into a neighboring wormhole.
Action Comics #782: After emerging from the sun energized, Superman physically pushed WarWorld, (a small, Pluto-sized planet) across the solar system and into a boom tube. WarWorld did engage a full throttle countermeasure in resistance Supermans push. We can see WarWorlds engines (which encompass nearly an entire hemisphere of WarWorlds surface) firing in resistance, to no avail. WarWorlds; engines allow WarWorld to travel at faster than light speeds through space, so they generate the power to accelerate a planet beyond light speed.
