Superman is very quick to change fighting styles, and has a very underrated tactical mind...is hulk stronger? at base levels, no, but i dont see why he can't surpass it... the problem is how high he has to go to surpass it... superman is considered by many to be THE preeminent physical being in DC... put simply, he's as strong as he has to be to beat the enemy he's fighting... it sounds kind of cheesy, but how many writers have used that in their stories?
and then there's everything else... there's the heat vision that can do everything from spreading far enough to reheat the earth's surface and prevent a new ice age, to performing precision brain surgery... and thats not counting the sheer offensive potential of a weapon that has one-shotted the likes of despero...
cold breath, wind-breath, a genuis intellect, well honed fighting skills...
for me, that package is too much for damn near anyone who isn't a god or close enough to one...
you know i don't agree as far as sacrifice goes... 😛
Actually I can fully agree and support this point of view vs Regular Hulk. What I dont think people get is that Hulk as represented in WorldWarHulk is already far beyond the levels of a pissed Savage Hulk at the start.
WWH's base levels are at least on par with current Superman's levels of Durability and Strength off the bat.
The freezing and heat will do next to nothing to WWH. He is impervious to extremes of both cold and heat.
Even with Superman's durability edge, Hulk is still very difficult to do any real damage to. People seem to dismiss Hulks HF and just how powerful it is. It shames Wolverines, and only strengthenes as the fight goes on....Wolverine's wears out as he bleeds.
Were talking about a monster than has lost over 90% of his flesh and regenerated it back while still advancing. Thats durable as hell. So yes Hulk is capable of bleeding, taking damage etc but it matters little if in the next few moments its as if nothing happened - without so much as a scar being left as evidence.
Then you have the energy source - what fuels Hulk has been called in-exhaustable. You HAVE to calm him, or otherwise shut him down from this source somehow...or its endgame. Hulk will only get stronger, more powerful and heal faster as long as he remains enraged.
