You might not like it, but the logic is sound.
What does that have to do with anything? The fact is, the Surfer achieved these feats thru sheer power. The fact that it was the Power Cosmic and not thru Gamma irradiated strength is completely irrelevant to this debate.
Sigh. Taking a step to shake a continent is pointless as the Surfer has wrecked planets. Thor not stopping the Juggernaut's charge is irrelevant as his powers go beyond just strength and that is why he is high herald (Hulk is physically stronger, yes, there is no doubt). Threatening is not doing and dimensions don't fight back (given time any high herald can destroy a dimension if they're not stopped). Someone stating it =/= to it being demonstrated on panel, otherwise Thor has lifted infinite weight before (also Beyonder's been retconned so what he said has been retconned as well). What Surfer did versus TWO high abstracts trumps everything Hulkie has done vs the now-retconned Beyonder.
He wasn't temporarily KOd, he got hit in the face by the hammer when he got caught by surprise and he turned him to glass before he was able to follow up the attack. :-/
Geez, and YOU'RE accusing ppl of LOWBALLING....!
TI Thanos is NOT old Thanos. If what has been shown on-panel is true, he's well above old Thanos (due to the fact that the Surfer is now being portrayed as extremely well below him. Unlike before when the Surfer was actually just a level below Thanos).
The Beyonder was retconned, but the Hulk's power has never been, hence the madder he gets, the stronger he becomes. Would you give me a clear answer? Do you believe that if the Surfer ever tried to go toe to toe with the Juggernaut that he would succeed by defeating Cain of old? The Hulk vs the Surfer as you know has always gone to the Surfer, because of energy leeching. If he tried to combat the Hulk without leeching, he would be dominated.
I said, that the Hulk's power punching would mess up any of those guys if he hit them with blows that broke through dimensions. Now if you turn around and change what I said, you are obviously not addressing my statement but side stepping it. It has taken far less than a punch with the power to open a dimensional rift, than what these guys have been put down by in the past.

Since you brought it up, just what are those levels? Strength wise I mean.
I'm interested in the answer to this as well.
