And we all know that herc is a much better fighter.
Doomsday never showed ANY kind of speed feat, just something indicated from a low meta.
hercules NEVER lifted an entire island. he did DRAG manhattan though . . . and a future version DID ko zeus.
even still, i don't see herc beating dd. again, even dos dd had some uber feats before meeting superman. if herc went all 'warrior crazy' he might pull it off. i would give him a couple outta 10 cuz he's my main man, but dd takes a solid majority.

I think that is a little bigger than Manhattan.

Didn't Hercules and Thor almost tilt the Earth off its axis when they were arm-wrestling? 😐I find it hard to believe that DOS DD wins.
you mean as mentioned in this tongue-in-cheek feature?

call me crazy, but somehow, i'm not all that willing to take THAT particular featire as very meaningful. 😐

believe me--i WANT to see a definitive scan showing him holding the firmament/heavens/earth. like i said--herc's my personal fave. so if that's not the one, make with the sharing. 😄

Why not? The authors were being silly. But the characters were being portrayed fine.
cuz it's more joke than anything. if the writes are being silly, and they're the ones WRITING it, how can you claim it's an accurate portrayal?
silly writer=silly writing=meaningless story imo. and besides--that's a combination feat. TOGETHER they generated the force required. a nice enough feat, but not the same as one of them smash a planet. 😬

That was reaffirmed much more recently:
Its an accurate portrayal because Herc and Thor were always depicted as equals. And both of them are insanely strong, so it makes sense. And yeah it was a silly story...it was only like 4 pages long. And while I know its a shared feat, those two feats (the Heaven one and the one you just posted) right there prove Herc's strength is much higher than DOS DD's.
Originally posted by psycho gundamI'm saying it would be close either way. WW Hulk was well above him while I don't think dos Doomsday is.
nah, even dos dd would beat him down. herculese is a better fighter, definitely top 10 of all super heavyweights, but he can't put dd down.the bone claws/spurs would make the difference.
