Have you got the whole page or even the issue number of that panel?

From that scan we dont know if thats a mystical representation of earth, or some other facsimile because such a feat is beyond even Zeus and Odin going by appearances and bios. I really dont think it was literally the planet earth because such a feat is celestial level. Have you got the appropriate issue number? I'll try downloading it tonight.

it comes from a flashback of Hercules' when talking to Thor in The Mighty Thor issue #356.

Zeus can lift 95 tons and Odin 75 WITHOUT tapping into their mystical/cosmic power sources.It means they can accomplish that feat if they wants.

That was while telling a story to children full of exaggerations; the childern were all fans of his, except one in the back who's favourite was Thor.
At one point he describes lifting all of Manhatten to flatten Thor with, but not even the kids believed that - Herc smiled to Jarvis about the cynicism of today's youth! 😂

"Ya know the good thing bout Olympian is, he really likes Herc but knows how to conclude a match...... even with Herc loosing in it !!!"

Thanos was created and -always- written to be that strong. Its fine with me.
"Is that an actual feat of comic book hercules as opposed to the mythological one. If so what issue did that happen in?"

Its a feat taken from one of the myth versions/sources.

There was another instance where it was stated.

Of course he doesnt pull feats like this all the time, but then again neither do others. This doesnt make Herk stronger than Thanos in my pov. Thanos has destroyed a planet when he faced Drax before. And has higher combat feats in his rep, one involving Hercules itself.

"Thats a feat that sound beyond the likes of Odin and Zeus let alone Herc."

Handbooks aside i wouldnt agree. Everytime Herk and Thor have faced theyr fathers (and having them fight back) they got served. Like this time when Zeus was figthing the Avengers and didnt noticed it was Herk who was approaching.

Herk was ko after that.

Talking about Herk and Zeus only now, this is accurate with the myths where Zeus was definatly stronger to a point when even other Gods wer afraid to go against him.

"That was while telling a story to children full of exaggerations; the childern were all fans of his, except one in the back who's favourite was Thor.

The part that is bull its how he described the fight with Thor. He tells that feat the same way he tells other labours and he didnt changed any. Why only that one?

The page in question its this one.

I always wanted to know what was the force acting apon it i.e gravity i doubt that but if it was the newtons and if not gravity what was it

I dont aplly science to myths. You have other mythology that deal with heroes hitting the moon or pulling it. This is just another one.

Or simply since Hercules its pretty much a magical being label it as---magic---

Like Thor with the Midgard Serpent.

Not to mention he says and its accurate that he lifted Atlas "celestial burden". In most sources its the Heavens, in others its the Earth. Marvel so far as used/stated about the earth one.

From what I saw of the last link, hercules downfall will be his arrogance.

You only noticed now he is arrogant? Thats part of his charm 😛

I knew he was arrogant to an extent, but not as bad as that. 😆

Like he would ever admit to be weaker than Thor 👿

He has a heart too, he changes it right back when one kid starts to whine about Thor losing it.

I take your point Olympian but electrical energy is not kinetic 🙂 Supes still wins though my friend 🙂

I think Thanos would still win, but these are how the stats go i think. Although i think the stronger classic Herc would beat Thanos.

Uh, no.

Strength - Thanos, by a massive degree
Speed - Thanos. FTL reactions.
Agility - Hercules
Durability - ahaha Thanos by a lightyear
Fighting Skills - Thanos. Older and more experience
Intelligence - Thanos, by far VERY far
Experience - Thanos is older.

Question is Thanos in h2h like cap and batman good meaning knowing all forms of martial arts or does he just brawl and tend to come out on top.

Well he did trained Gamora i think.

Beat me to it.

For some UNKNOWN reason, Thanos is a f'ing master of h2h combat.

Strenght: Thanos by far.Hercules in half god form is equal to Classical Thor without his hammer, Thanos usually beats Thor so it's right.
Speed: ROTFL at FTL reactions.Thanos reaction times is in the metahuman range but FTL?Come on be serious.
Agility: Hercules, but Thanos showed to be quite agile from a huge guy like him.
Fighting Skills:Herc has trained since his child years, Thanos has the experience over him, but the skill is close.
Intelligence: Herc has never been a genious, but in terms of tactics and battle attitude, he is worth.

Thanos handled a speed blitz by Gladiator and Surfer. His reactions aren't simply meta.

They may not be FTL, but they are amazing.

You're saying Herc is a better tacticion or on par with Thanos in that depo? Please.

Herk is not above or equal in that. My guess is that he is saying in Battle tactics he is worth. He knows the stuff.

And that would be my approach.

Lets not forget while Ulisses and the rest took i dont know how long, Herk overun Troy in a short period of time.
