Plastic Man doesn't just stretch.
He can practically become anything he can imagine.
Just like Impossible Man.
Reed stretches.
Plastic Man is WAY beyond stretching.
Wow... Plastic Man is NOT equal to Impossible Man. Impossible Man is a very adept matter/energy manipulator. Plasticman is a low level shapeshifter/stetchy guy (for lack of a better word. 😮) No comparison.

remeber that plas and his son are the two most versatile strechers there are. they can actually turn into stuff like shapeshifters while every body else like reed and, Elongated man just twirls around and junk. that being said plas crawls up hulks ass and turns into a giant spiked club. and spin around as fast as he can
That sounds really gay, but what would it do besides tickle Hulk, and get Plasticman really messy?

All the incarnations of the Hulk, except for the Grey Hulk, can lift approximately 100 tons when calm. The Grey Hulk starts off at approximately 75 tons. As the familiar old addage goes, "the Madder the Hulk gets, the Stronger he gets." During times of high stress or anger, an increase in adrenaline causes the Hulk's strength to increase dramatically. There has never been a limit shown as to the highest strength the Hulk can reach thus it is assumed it is limitless. The Hulk has shown many incredible feats of the years, including holding up a 150 billion ton mountain during the Secret Wars and breaking open Onslaught's armor when the combined might of the rest of the world's heroes couldn't even make a scratch in it.Enhanced Lung Capacity: The size and strength of Banner's lungs, like the rest of his body, are increased when he transforms into the Hulk. On a single good inhalation of air, Hulk can last hours--perhaps even days--without needing to take another one. This makes it possible for him to spend an extended period of time in outer space, or under the ocean. The Hulk has also used his lung capacity as an offensive weapon in several instances by inhaling, and then blowing the air back out at high speeds.
Breathing in water and space: There have been several instances in the past where Hulk has not only spent extended periods of time underwater without breathing, but he has also moved his mouth and spoken beneath the waves. Until recently, this was unexplained. However, in Incredible Hulk v3 #77 it is finally learned that the Hulk has the power to develop a gland that can create an oxygenated perfluorocarbon emulsion that filled Hulk's lungs, allows him to breathe and move his mouth as if he was speaking, even though his words are apparently still inaudible to the naked ear.
Leaping/Jumping Ability
The Hulks's leg muscles are augmented so much that the Hulk can travel miles in a single casual jump. Jumping is the standard mode of transportation for the less intelligent incarnations of the Hulk. The Hulk has been known to make it into the earth's atmosphere on a single leap. Given the strength of the leap and the angle of trajectory when landing, the Hulk can create large craters and limited seismic activity when landing. Among the many physically impressive feats the Hulk can perform, his ability to leap miles in single bounds is one of his most underrated abilities. The Hulk's leg muscles are incredibly enhanced, and are probably the most advanced on Earth. He can leap up to three miles in one jump at incredible speeds. In fact, on more than one occasion Hulk has been able to propel himself into orbit on his leg muscles alone. His powerful legs are not merely useful for transportation, but for attack as well. Hulk is capable of leaping at his target--even speeding jets high in the air--and take his enemy by surprise. If Hulk used his leg muscles offensively more often, such as kicking moves, he could probably cause some serious damage.Dynamic Durability
It has been stated that the Hulk possess a dynamic durability in relation to his increase in anger. Similar to how the Hulk gets stronger as he gets angrier, he also heal quicker and his skin becomes tougher. It is not known if the increase in healing and skin-toughening is related to IncarnationAccuracy: The Hulk's uncanny sense of direction may also account for his deadly accuracy. Hulk has jumped at, or thrown objects towards, fast moving jets and caught them. The Hulk is also able to accurately leap from place to place, knowing exactly where he will land. He has jumped from miles away and was able to hit a humanoid, moving target. The Hulk's instinctual accuracy also has made it possible for him to strike "speedsters" capable of superhuman speed.
Hulk jumping into space, fighting in space, falling from space.
Plastic Man goes inside of him, but he'll get blown out..

God he can breathe in space!!!

Hulk jumps into space with PM all over him, PM freezes in the Sub Zero temperatures in space. For PM, it will get cold very fast, then Hulk will proceed to fall into the atmosphere burning PM up in the atmosphere.
What are those pictures of? Hulk jumping into space and Hulk falling from space. Can PM survive or not be rendered unconsious by the reentering the atmosphere? How much heat can he take? How much cold can he take?
PM would be inside of Hulk for that time Sentry...and there's places he could go that Hulk wouldn't be able to easily expel him.
Besides that, he'd just slip out of Hulk's grip if he tried to grab PM and jump. PM would never be making the trip to outer space in the first place. Short of energy attacks, it's next to impossible to take out PM, and PM has plenty of attack options (juries out on the breathing issue, but if Hulk needs to breathe PM could block it, the ear-jump to a brain-rape has also been mentioned multiple times). Maybe Hulk would survive these but then we're just looking at a stalemate. And a "tie" is the best Hulk could hope for here.

That only applies to being underwater - it's similar to gills, the perfluorocarbon has to be renewed, otherwise he'll consume it all, and there's no more oxygen in space, right? So the supply comes from the water itself. It's useless in space. So Hulk can't breathe in space, and he definitely can't live without air.

It applies to space as well, demi. His body actually draws energy from an extradimensional source. He can live without food, air, or water indefinitely.
It's strange... Why does everyone assume that simply because Plas is more powerful than Reed is, Hulk doing to Plas what he did to Reed is totally ruled out? It's not like Hulk was struggling with Reed, or almost failed. I mean, If Eel can't defeat Bane, what chance does he have of defeating Hulk?
Considering the fact that Hulk's insides are equally as durable as his exterior, how would Plasticman entering his body damage him?

Untrue. He's not the Juggernaut. If what you're saying is true and he gets everything he needs from an "extradimensional source" (wtf??), then he wouldn't have needed to develop that little polyflurocarbon thingy in his lungs, would he? He developed it because he needs air, and he sometimes evolves in ways to adapt to his environment. So he developed a way to supply himself with oxygen, but he stills needs a source of oxygen to keep that lung gill filled. Water will supply it. Space will not. And don't tell me that it was something he's always had...it wasn't. He's suffocated and passed out from lack of air plenty of times.
He's been up in space many times in the past and not need to breathe as well. This fight will end quick. You think he'll pass out instantly as he hits space? No. It'll take hours, days even, before he even needs to breathe. As soon as he jumps into space with PM on him, PM will either freeze in space or burn in the atmosphere.

The Hulk has also used his lung capacity as an offensive weapon in several instances by inhaling, and then blowing the air back out at high speeds.
Now let's address the fact of PM going inside his body before Hulk jumps into space. If PM is fast enough, Yes Hulk has achieved supersonic speeds before, and can react fast enough(highly unlikely), it is a logical attack, but other than the mouth, nose, ears, and god forbid, his anus, there are no other ways of entry into the Hulk. What does that accomplish? He better be careful not to go into Hulk's stomach, he will probably melt in the Hulk's stomach acid. His accelerated healing factor will kick in, and Hulk's antibodies will expel PM from his body in a variety of different ways. Vomiting, sneezing, god forbid, diarrhea. Hulk's antibodies could very well kill or Incapacitate PM for Hulk. PM as powerful as Impossible Man??? Pfffttt..
He acts like him, but power wise, he's totally out of his league. 😄
I never argued that Hulk couldn't jump into space, just as I never argued that it couldn't be used as a viable strategy to beat Plastic Man. I'm just stating a fact here to correct a misconception. Hulk needs to breathe. He holds his breath, like, whale long, but he still needs to breathe.
That said, it's not a viable strategy for beating Plastic Man. Hulk can reach space, but he can't reach orbit by jumping. If he did, he'd be stuck in space. He always comes down, which means he's never reached orbit, which means that he'd come right back down, which means Plastic Man would come right back down which means PM won't be cold enough long enough to freeze to the extent that he'd lose.
Might burn up on reentry, though.
If he falls back down just like that, it's not orbit, because orbit, by definition, means he's, well, orbiting the earth. I'd chalk it up to artist error. He's in space, which I agree he can do, but he's not in orbit, unless the captions (which I can't read) say that he was actually orbiting for some length of time until he went into re-entry.
