Thats the issue. The strength disparity never mattered in earlier comics. I despise feats for feats sake. It's as if each new event is turning into a micheal bay film.

Pre ret con Wolverine truly was a trans tier character, he was absolutely immortal (not exagerating - his ability to heal was an extension of his direct connection with TOAA). He was dropping characters like thanos, hulk, galactus, phoenix, gladiator,etc. with ease.

Then the changes started happening, where marvel had gained financial stability and no longer needed to use wolverine as their poster boy (who was their highest selling character during their darkest financial era. He saved marvel from bankruptcy in terms of propping up sales).

Marvel's new direction for wolverine was a more human character the new generation couls connect with. One who had visible faults, and weaknesses that were not overshadowed by extreme archetypal dominance.

Well, it did and it didn't.

In example the narration in his first apperance, where its stated that one hit from the Hulk might kill him.

He had a lot of sick stuff in the 80s, like his fights with Roughouse or when he was wailing on Grey Hulk, but it was always more about Wolverine being able to dodge the hits, not take endless punishment.

Yet he's been consistently shown to be able to hang until he recently got nerfed. That's y their rivalry was so intense in the 90s

Seems like Fury along with other Avengers thinks that the only person/being capable of stopping Hulk is another Hulk.

With the biggest amp any human being should possess. So yes, he did shoot Hulk with some type of Gamma ray. IIRC, it was a sneak attack. Take out the big gun, worry about the rest. That's what I got from it.

Glad to have you back. Don't understand your point though. Fury was amped to the point that he was capable of taking on the Avengers, after dispatching Hulk. Where are you going with this?

My point still stands. In fact, it is strengthened.

Fury KNOWS you don't need a Hulk to stop a Hulk.

What do you need because he had a team full of hero's that included Blue Marvel and he didn't send the team or any of them to stop Hulk. He even mentions that they need the secret weapon to do so and in the previous comic...he even brings up their chances being small due to Hulk.
