Top strength feats ever in comics

Started by janus773 pages

Hulk holding a planet together, punching across many worlds/dimensions from the Nexus of All Realities, creating a Thunderclap powerful enough to re-direct a head-on blast that destroyed a dimension.

moving planets/planetoids in space is only a minor feat, since you aren't operating against mass nor gravity (Sun's gravity isn't all that impressive at these distances or else the planets would fall into the sun or any stray satellite orbiting the Earth would fall into the sun), don't see what's so special about that 😐

Actually the sun's gravity is countered by centripetal force, that's why orbiting objects don't just fall in towards the thing they're orbiting. It takes even more energy to move a planet out of orbit of the sun than it takes to destroy it. Many scientists theorize that the moon was formed when a giant planetoid crashed into earth billions of years ago and blasted part of it into space that became the moon. This collision didn't even alter the earth's orbit - it was not powerful enough.

Colossus catching that ridiculously-huge shuttle free-falling towards the planet in Secret Wars. I know that it's nowhere near pulling galaxies, but for Colossus that is a HUGE strength feat.

i always liked when he burrowed under the blob, and lifted him. the artistic depiction on that page was very well done.

anyways, pc superboy moving no less than a dozen planets through space at once.

Never understood how Thor lifted the Midgard serpent as just before he couldn't even lift it's leg
He was put under a spell where his bones turned extremely brittle, and he needed to wear a special armor when he tried to lift 'Foom's' paw.

Off memory anyway.

Oh nice that would explain it, it's been years for me do you know what issue it mentions it? Also I thought the armor was supposed to match his old strength? I could be wrong as like I mentioned it has been awhile.

Juggernaut one-shotting the Stranger.

Thor #379-380. Pretty sure it's 379 though if you want to check it out.

I remember him saying that he was scared to break his bones with the armor before... but anyway, that's my excuse why he couldn't do it. srug]

Wondy, Supers and MM, moving the planet slightyly out of orbit.
Superman catching a moon sized ship and using nothing but elbow and forarm power threw it.
Wondy Helping herc Hold Paradise Island
Hulk bracing a mountain on his back.
Herc and Thor arm wresting and causing shockwaves thru out an entire valley.
Gladiator destroying a small planet in a few punches.
SBP destroying a planet with one double punch.

Your right Hela had cursed him with brittle bones for a while there..

When Krona mugged Galactus I was like... WOW!

Hulk uprooted an entire island and swam it cross-river; the island also had its own mountain.

One of the most awesome feats of strength is Hulk resisting those antimatter/matter orbs.

Only takes less than 1 ton of strength. The feat is invalid.

1. Superman overpowering thousands of galaxies of power in Action comics #782

2. PC Superboy moving dozens of planets at least millions of times faster than light with a smile on his face.

Insert other insane feats by Pre-Crisis Superman and Superboy for
the rest.

Let's neglect the Sun for a moment.
In the absence of the Sun's gravity, if one accelerates the Earth at a mere 9.8m/s^2 then this is the same as lifting the Earth's own weight (6.58x10^21tons). This acceleration is so slow that it would take about 2.5 hours just to move the Earth to the moon. Now to move the Earth any considerable rate one would have to accelerate the Earth at least 1000 times faster (to get to the moon in 9 sec). This would be the same as lifting a weight that is 1000 times greater than the Earth. Now adding in the Sun's gravity pull/centripetal force to fight against and this feat becomes astronomical.

He didn't. The scan says that the serpent was in ethereal form. Only the head materialized (as the official bios says). So lifting only the head is about the same as lifting a foot since the ratio of a snake's head to its long body is about the same as a cat's foot to its body.

Umm.
Not a versus thread.
