Yes the Superman and Spiderman (with the first Hulk fight) comic was the tie-in of the previous Superman vs Spiderman comic. The Hulk vs Superman comic appeared after the DC vs Marvel series.
Originally posted by Rage.Of.OlympusGladiator tried the tactic against Thor but it failed because Thor was -by Gladiator's own admission- as strong as him. Not because Mjolnir is magical.
All we know for sure is it did not work on Thor when Thor hit Glads with Mjolnir, not with his fists.
Or are you suggesting that Thor is Hulk's physical superior by a significant amount?
We know that Glads was Supes copycat and on a very similar power level.

Hell, the first fight was published in 1980 which is pretty damn late in the Pre-Crisis era and when he was being toned down.
Well we were told in that Comic Supes could move planets, so that should give us an idea of his power level. But yeah for it to be a fight it could not have been Pre-Crisis Supes in his prime.

Yes and we know why it didn't work. Because Thor is without a doubt Gladiator's physical rival in strength.
What? How did you come to that conclusion? If Gladiator tried to no sell a punch from Hulk similar to Pre-Crisis Superman, he'd get floored. Gladiator may have been based off of that Superman, but he's nowhere near that level in terms of power. Not by any stretch of the imagination.
Neither Gladiator nor current Superman are capable of no selling a punch from Wonder Woman much less Thor or the Hulk.

He was still capable of operating on a planetary level but he was definitely watered down compared to the Silver Age era.
tbh im not even sure why im arguing here. Its obvious 80's Hulk was no match for Silver Age Supes.
I think I was just pointing out that the comic (spiderman/superman one) said "the outcome of this strange duel is in doubt" but I dnt really accept crossovers as canon anyway. They're mostly bull.. Wolverine beating Lobo, Storm beating Wonder Woman and Venom beating Superman comes to mind.

The outcome of this strange duel could be that Superman would eventually feel a blow from the Hulk and be moved by it, before the Hulk would exhaust himself. Which in turn would mean that Supes has to take the fight serious and beat the shit out of the Hulk.

Wrong.
He already had that opportunity and failed.

Wrong. He didn't want to hurt the Hulk. He found a way to defeat the Hulk without hurting him. That's what Superman does, you know.
Anyway. Maybe you should download the comic and read it, honestly, you don't know what you are talking about.

Maybe but anyway, that's why I said "till he would feel his blows" and there Superman would end the fight, hurting the Hulk. Though good for the Hulk, he found a nice way to stop his rampage...
