How is it impossible even with unlimited strength? The very nature of unlimited meaning that there is no limit, means that when it comes to any physical feat it's possible, whether it's holding tectonic plates together or holding up a mountain.
I know you mentioned Superman's older comics, but him holding up quadrillions of tons with one arm is just as blatantly ridiculous, if not more so, than Hulk holding together tectonic plates (as he did in All Star). The Hulk feat would have actually placed his strength in that moment in the quintillions of tons, putting his strength and durability right up there with All-Star superman (durability due to being able to hold all of that opposing force together without being ripped in half).
WWH arc basically puts Hulks' strength and durability on levels par with All Star Superman (but not speed, so Superman would still win in a brawl).
David recently beating up Hellion was bullshit. Hellion can restrain Wolverine but not someone who's weaker, slower and has only some of his skill?

😖hifty:
the hulk thing is always kinda tricky cuz when the hulk was holding up mountains, shattering earth sized asteroids with one punch, swimming thru the ocean fast enuff to cuase tidal waves and breaking pure adamantium statues in the mid 70s to mid 80s superman was still juggling planets, and time traveling under his own power in that same time period, but ppl are quick to dismiss his as just pre crisis feats and should never be brought up in debates, but the hulk feats can stay when in actuality tho marvel never had a reboot of its own, they were churning out stories at that time that were very similar to DC in ridiculousness, and incredibility..especially if you read some of the older thor stuff, and see how bad ass he was then you'll wonder how he managed to suffer any defeats in this day and age.....
but anyway my WTF?!?!! moment would have to be when Cap gut punched the HULK 😱 at least 3 times i can recall in recent comic history and put him down, and also slamming him with the shield in the back of the head and putting him down...not to mentioned the nut kicking incident in the ultimates which also put him down...not to mention how he defeat ultimate hank pym by just doing gymnastics and having stuff fall on him 😘

When you're reading a comic and you come across a particularly impressive feat - regardless of whether it's accomplished by your favorite character, least favorite, or by someone you're totally indifferent concerning - at what point do you take a step back, stop suspending disbelief and just utter to yourself "Now, that's just dumb"?Regardless of whether it's moving planets with giant chains, or some of the weird pseudo-science explanations for the way technologies work, whatever it is.
Where does disbelief resume?
