But there was forum bias. You can squirm around it but there is no denying that. If you want to argue Hulk was so much less powerful than Thor before 90s you've to ignore 99% of their encounters.
Hulk vs Thing wasn't a, discussion in 70s much less 90s. Thing straight up ran away from Hulk and at one point stole a cab to get away.
Hulk has always been a very good match for Thor and frankly the level of disrespect for the character at times is ridiculous on forums.
I think both abhi (did not capitalise for you stilt) and Digi is on point. The Thor vs Hulk fight back then is basically a personal opinion on what you think of thought the outcome should've been.
Are you f*cking retarded? In JiM #112 Stan had Thor ask Odin to completely strip Mjolnir -and himself by extension- of his godly powers and they went to stalemate in h2h. The huge gulf in power is illustrated by Hulk being unable to wrest Mjolnir out of Thor's grasp or do basically anything against his vortex etc. He was literally hitting a brick wall trying to match Mjolnir.
30 years later, even with the artist being HEAVILY biased (To the point he wrote another issue 10 years later after. Like Pak, it was an obsession), Stan had Hulk get the advantage but STILL had Thor completely separated from Mjolnir and fought Hulk in pure h2h to a near stalemate.
Stan had Thor firmly superior to Hulk in every category but strength and to any idiot who's read classic Thor, the power of the Thunder God, his inability to just stay down and his hammer is what made him an unstoppable force.
Again, you're a f*cking idiot. Hulk couldn't beat Thor in h2h when he utilized no other power. What do you think would happen if he used his full power? Under Lee and Kirby, he'd annihilate the Hulk to the point it wasn't even worth debating. He existed on a completely other scale compared to every other Marvel hero for like 30 years.
Stan has said numerous times that Thor is the most powerful hero in Marvel and how does he write the three most iconic battles in Marvel history for the top competitors?
Vs. Surfer? Thor holds back significantly and Surfer is hugely amped. Flat out said Thor is way more powerful.
Vs. Hulk? Thor is flat out more powerful when using his mystical abilities and stalemates the Hulk in h2H and specifically strips himself of his godly power to make it a FAIR fight. Hmm, so if Thor used his powers it would be unfair? Idiot.
Vs Hercules? Thor puts away his hammer and godly powers, is holding back and Mjolnir is beyond Hercules comprehension, and only losses after he has his strength cut in half (Might be thinking of two different fights as one but whatever)
What a shocker. What a contradiction. There is clearly no pattern of events here that suggest huge handicaps have to exist for Thor to make it competitive.
You're an idiot and if you ever want to battle zone classic Thor vs. classic Hulk/Surfer/Hercules lmk. I know you love threatening those. Let me take your lunch money and spank your ass so bad your mom disowns you.
Fagg0t.

Hey mongoloid, Stan himself wrote Hulk as the most powerful being on Earth while Thor also appeared in FF 25. Same was again Reiterated in Amazing Spider-Man 14. He wrote that only mjolnir could do what Hulk did in Avengers 5.
Hulk not being able to wrest mjolnir was because of the enchantment. Thor created a dimensional disruption and hid away from the Hulk.
What a mighty power.
By stalemate you mean beat the everloving shit out of him, right? Hulk took six hammer shots and only had a minor nosebleed.
What else do you expect from a puny god?
Except no? Thor was threatened by bullets under Stan and a mortar koed him.
Hulk was considered equal to him even then.
Hahaha, that's why Hulk matched non holding back Thor with mjolnir shot for shot in Hulk 300? Or had advantage over him in Hulk 254?
Its mere hypothesis if Thor could beat Hulk with mjolnir as he never did.
That's why Stan is a fickle man. Later in SS enslavers Reed flat out says Surfer is the most powerful being in galaxy and does far better than Thor against the same foes.
Only mjolnir was stripped of power.
Hulk was flat out said to be the most powerful being on earth by Stan Lee. Mind showing the same for Thor?
Hercules was always a ***** so no arguments there.
Hahaha, did something happened to you Rage? Did the gamma fans molested you or something?
Also, I was saying it partly (only partly) in jest. There are so many top-tier bricks, it's hard to keep score, but imo, Hulk should be strongest there is (what can I say: I'm a purist and that's Hulk's tag) ... but he's got a lot of competition (WBH aside).
