Pre-Crisis Superman vs. Post-Heroes Reborn Savage Hulk

Superman would be crushed by the Hulk. Superman, or any other DC superhero, has no strength level chart, and he has never shown an act of strength greater than that of the Hulk (Please do NOT give me the moving the moon argument. Superman did not have the force of gravity, or any force resisting him when he moved it. Hulk shattered an asteroid twice the size of the earth in space with a punch.) It is then safe to assume that Hulk is stronger than Superman.

Superman would get crushed. Superman draws his energy from the sun. Hulk could pummel him through the earth's crust, there he couldn't absorb any solar energy. Then, Hulk would commence beating the daylights out of him, similar to the manner in which Darksied did.

People often underestimate Hulk's speed, strength, durability, and battle cunning. Hulk isn't nearly as fast as Superman, nor can he fly. (Note: Superman can NOT, I repeat, can NOT move at the speed of light! He can only fly, not run, slightly faster than the speed of sound.) However he is certainly not slow by any means. Hulk can run much faster than any sort of automobile and has a jumping ability greater than anyone; He can leap into space in a single bound.

Hulk is also insanely strong. His strength is limitless, thus there is nothing that he cannot destroy, Superman included. During the Secret Wars, Hulk carried a 150,000,000,000 ton mountain. Superman has never displayed a feat of such strength. May I remind you, this was not his limit of strength, as there is no upper limit to his might.

Hulk's regeneration factor is greater than anyone in the Marvel universe, including Wolverine. He once regenerated from a virtual skeleton in minutes. Even if Superman wanted to kill (or was capable of killing) Hulk, it would be impossible to do so.

Hulk has no weaknesses for Superman to exploit (his only weakness being his mind and gullibility). Superman has three very exploitable weaknesses, Kryptonite, Magic, and deprivation of Sunlight. If Hulk can deprive Superman of sunlight, it's no contest. I understand that Superman is way more popular, but I'm talking about science.

Superman could never beat the Hulk with strength. His only chance would be to calm him down.

Good Argument

I think you confused Pre-Crisis and Post-Crisis though. Pre-crisis Superman could juggle planets, blow out suns, and fly from one to the universe to the other. His power was reliant on the writers imagination, which can often be limitless. Post-Crisis Superman thankfully was toned down. Pre-Crisis Superman would beat the Hulk. His power is limitless. The Hulk isn't.

Hello again Draco,
Was the Pre-Crisis Superman the one that moved the moon? If so I was referring to him.

Hi, Supessucks!

No, Post-Crisis Superman moved the moon (when he was Electro-Superman). Pre-Crisis Superman would probably eat the moon because in the 30s' everyone knew that the moon was made of cheese.

Notwithstanding this superman is very powerful, Hulk's power is also in fact limitless. I don't pay much attention to the comics that defy all laws of physics. Primarily, it would be impossible to juggle planets as the directions "up" and "down" are relative to gravitational pull, and for an object to "fall" it would have to be pulled towards a sufficiently massive article in space. As for "Blowing out" a sun, stars are not combustion reactions, hence the feat is essentially impossible, and requires no further scrutiny. and I think you mean flying from galaxy to galaxy, not universe.

I agree with you.

Cool

Dont most comics defy the laws of physics? Damm son what the F*ck are you talking about.

I was shocked at your lack of bias, especially when I saw your name. (sarcasm)

Some do potty mouth, but not quite so blatantly as others.

yes I suppose I was a tad biased. How could you tell?(sarcasm)

I figured there are more than enough superman fans.

I was thinking about changing my name, any suggestions?

wolviesucks sounds good.

Deep in my heart I reluctantly agree, but he's much better than that Cyclops fellow. Are you a DC fan by any chance?

I read both Marvel and DC. I am not biast towards either one.

Thats "biased." I understand typos, I do it myself often. I'll admit my deferrence against superman, its just that his millions of blinded fans give him more credit than he is merited.

Ummm, don't take this personally, but you talk about Superman defying physics? You do know punching an asteroid twice the size of Earth is almost worse than moving Earth right (wouldn't something that big be it's own planet with twice the gravity and it's own atmosphere)? Anyways, apparantly you don't seem to know too much about Pre-Crisis Superman, so is you don't mind, I want you to check this out:

Hulk has the potential for limitless strength, but against Pre-Crisis Superman, he stands no chance. You're talking about a guy that could sneeze a galaxy out of existence here, Hulk ain't up for that. And Hulk has been beaten by foes no where near as PC Supes. Now don't get me wrong, I like Hulk far more than Superman, but, you gotta accept the fact that Pre-Crisis DC works on a much higher power scale, and Hulk couldn't even compare.

The writer's of this pre-crisis superman comic seem to endow him with random unrelated abilities, which is understandable for the time period. However in the strength category, Hulk could perform, and has performed greater acts of strength than these (except for perhaps hitting a baseball around the world, and hurling space shuttles into distant galaxies.)

Superman is stronger, faster, more intelligent and has more powers...isn't it obvious that he wins?
