That seemed like kinda low-end for a high heralds though.
Hercules should both be able to/and absolutely need to kick a Hulk to Mars to knock him weak enough to do a ground and pound.
I get it that they are more earthbound heroes and no Thor/Surfer I just feel like the collateral damage and stuff looked like Rhinoish level

I wouldn't necessarily call it a bad showing since Herc himself said Hulk usually withstand the attacks he is dishing out. Anyways, I dont like Maestro and he obviously isn't as powerful as he should be due to a lot of circumstances in this story.
I enjoy Herc being written like this tbh. Hercules is the son of Zeus, the God of God's. Hercules should be the most powerful physical character in any comic imo and yes, if I was writing him, he would treat people like Hulk, Thor, Superman and Juggernaut like fodder and can only be beaten outside of physical means. He should be the pennacle of physical perfection in the Herald and trans tier. This is just me speaking and the writer obviously thinks exactly like me. Here, in the same book he states Hercules is the most powerful being in existence...
I said it before: One character looking good doesn't take away from another.
The only time that it's just unacceptable was how Immortal Hulk beat Unworthy Thor. Thor did way worse than Sasquatch, Wonder Man, Hercules, and was literally inserted in the story just to get beat up. He did nothing to serve the narrative. Pak gave Thor more respect when he said they needed to call in Thor to stop Immortal Hulk.
1) It needs to be retconned and (2) Thor needs to beat the utter shit out of the Hulk with his bare hands soon.
Unfortunately, Thor actually has a strong mythos. He doesn't need a hundred guest stars a run to create tension.

When was it said they needed Thor stop immortal Hulk ?
And that will never happen man. Marvel is weirdly afraid to let Thor have a very convincing win on Hulk.
A bit late, but idc.
Apocalypse wins the last match, meaning Krakoa wins. Arakko responds by unleashing their entire army at them.
But Scott and Jean have the entire population (sans some members of the Quiet Council) of Krakoa, PLUS Saturnyne brings the Cap Brit Corps back, PLUS Cable's sword isn't actually his personal weapon, but the S.W.O.R.D station.
End of the story? Arakko and Krakoa are at peace once more. Oh, and Jubilee brought some fairies in to help in the fight.

Yeah, I guess we are just meant to accept that even thought the Starlight Citadel etc couldbring in MJJ and an entire domain of Furys if needed, they still feared the hordes.
Lady saturne didn't seem scared of them at all tho, I believe it was hinted that she could have stopped them herself.

meh. . they never really explained how powerfull the enemies are, especially the horde the enemy has. I mean there are plenty of OP feats some xmen have that could easily beat the enemy. but suddenly they cant do it here cause plot which is a big meh story wise for me..
I think it was more quantity over quality... considering their armies were trying to take over a multiverse, the powerful mutants were either subject to saturne (Jamie/MJJ) or apparently retconned (Franklin) or not allowed to interfere.
