Technically yes and no while fighting him at night will mean he won't be able to absorb sunlight he does have sunlight stored in him he really is a solar battery it just means if you were giving him all he could handle he couldn't recharge unless he left the planet and Hulk would get killed by Superman he may eventually get stronger than Superman but, it's not like Superman's just gonna stand around and let it happen in all truth Hulk's not fit to wash the feet of Superman, Wonder Woman, Silver Surfer, Thor, etc you get it.

Hulk's certainly as strong as Superman.

I have the comic you're talking about. Hulk fought Pre-crisis Superman (who's a tad stronger than today's Superman, mind you,) to a standstill. Near the end of the fight, Superman ignored one of Hulk's punches (which puzzled me, considering that an earlier punch knocked him out of Metropolis,) blocked another, and then destroyed the device that was causing him to be so angry. But then, I gave it some thought. Pre-crisis Superman was a total cheesefest. Nothing he did would surprise me. Heck, knocking him out of Metropolis was a hella feat on Hulk's behalf.

Superman wins this fight because of superspeed. He doesn't have to let Hulk lay a hand on him. All he needs to do is defeat Hulk before he becomes any sort of a threat. If Superman didn't have superspeed, Hulk would smash him.

Umm if you actually read the comic it was more than one punch he ignored many blows had no effect but he could tell hulk was getting stronger with each blow, ha you just like to look at the pictures eh? But anyway whatever I couldnt resist that one, sorry

Crossovers don't count. But Superman wins becasue of his speed, strength, range attacks, flight, and is stronger than Hulk at the start of the fight.

Can someone tell me where it says crossovers dont count, like an official statement from both DC and Marvel? Im not saying they both didnt say that I just want to see it.

crossovers are more like What If stories than anything.

It's 50/50 depending how superman fights hulk, if superman uses head which is 60% of the time he will win by using his other abilities, but if tries to brawl with the hulk blow for blow like he did against doomsday will get curbstomp bad.

Superman kills hulk in one punch.

Not true....first again Crossovers are NOT canon. And if they were Marvel vs. DC even the weaker Smart Hulk stands a Chance against Superman..Supoerman there gives all he can and only defeats him by giving all....

crossovers are not cannon in my mind if its based on a fanboy vote

the original crossover did not count as pre-crisis b*llox

hulk versus post crisis supes

Hulk has a chance. but i think 7 out 10 supes takes it.

Okay fair enough ,to me that just makes it that much worse on the poor hulk, based on what they can do within the series strongest "versions" of them they both have unmeasurable strength they can move planets thats about it for measuring strength I think. They both can move planets but supes doesnt have to wait and build up to that point etc Then supes other abilites obviously win him the fight IMO the speed most of all, hulks max speed is way way less I think he can only propel himself 300 mph is that right? Supes moves at near lightspeed with little effort....and I forget how fast that is 600,000,000 something mph? Hulk should get dizzy and throw up while supes is flying circles around him. Hulk would not be able to land a punch. I think I already mentioned it hulk getting knocked into space etc, cant hold breath more than a few hours. Knock supes into space he will just fly back at ya. Yes and I know about the 99 crossover but again supes was trying to reason with hulk in that one instead of just taking him out havent read it all but seen enough of it to know that. Hulk needs some kind of extra help to win thats why my money would be on on the smart version of hulk as the only one to stand a chance by knowing enough to get kryptonite or say some magical incantations maybe, haha. Poor Hulk hes strong but thats it. Way outclassed and I havent even mentioned any of supes other abilities yet.

ok anyone studying my posts knows i am not crazy about ridiculous power levels but hulks power can be riiculous too in which case hes gotta a chance.

speed hulk has instantaneously accelerated to nearly 25 000 mph when he nearly lept into space. punching power destroyed an asteroid allegedly twice the size of the earth

Don't forget the newest power Superman has! He now has the ability to get stronger as his stress level increases. Has that been mentioned here, yet? So now Hulk's single biggest advantage is gone....

didn't know that. is this limitless. super man does sem to pull new powers out of his butt all the time. thank goodness he can't time travel anymore. please say he can't time travel

Between flight, super-speed, intellect, range attacks, and comparable strength... the fight is Superman's to lose, otherwise he wins.

Well, a few months ago in Adventues #375....ok, ok, he still can't time travel. But I can't think of a scenario in which Hulk could win.

Also, Superman is a better fighter - he started using techniques Bruce and Diana taught him to beat Zod. He also is actually over 10,000 years old and spent all those 10,000 years in a war. Seriously.

the bias of hulks strength has gotta be in his legs and feet.

picture this:

half ton of already ticked off green muscles gets an irritating tap on the shoulder from a red and blue boy scout. hulk already mad is ballistic when he sees who has interupted his rampage - a dude in red underpants. a size 39 foot hurtles towards the red undies at 25000 mph and hits squarely on supes not so invulnerable nads

a month later a disatisfied lois lane leaves clark kent for captain marvel

Mind you he might have done her a favour. I mean, he would take projectile ejaculation to another level. 🙂

eww!!

delete mental image... delete mental image

Hell yeah.

Superman would come up to hulk, who was already pissed off beyond belief.

Hulk sluggs him so hard the impact is felt and heard on the other side of the planet.

Superman dies.
Hulk might break even his hand, but superman would be broken.

yeah and hulk hand heals in seconds and goes about his busines.

haha...so now we're starting with the assumption that Hulk is at his maddest and Superman is at his most stress free?

BIASED

You nailed it right there! If Supes fights smart he'll win. If nothing else he can win by ringout by super-speedily grabbing the Hulk by his pinky toe, dragging him up into space and flinging him out of Earth's orbit.

If he tries to brawl he's in trouble. Use Thor as a yardstick, since Marvel acknowledged Avengers/JLA as being in continuity in a recent Avengers sourcebook. Superman had to go all out to KO Thor, and even then it was close. (If Thor had fought smarter instaid of brawling, he might have won, but that's another thread.) When Thor and the Hulk have fought, especially then they've brawled, Hulk has significantly gotten the better of Thor almost every time. Particularly Hulk's healing factor gives his his biggest advantage. At the end of their biggest ever fight, Thor had plenty of fight left in him, but was battered and bruised while Hulk seemed unharmed.

Hulk wasn't even that angry, he finally just got bored and quit!

If Supes tries to go fist for fist, he'll get more of what Doomsday gave him.
