If you read the interview, it was only said to be semi continuous, but that there was nothing about it not being canon. It took place in the 616 past, so should we conclude that it was canon?

The writer said it was a past tale. Are those kind of stories unusable on KMC?

Not sure how much of a role Tutinax's fear inducing powers played in the battle. Assuming none, the he should an advantage in the beginning but eventually lose.

yep according to Snider it is canon, but semi continuous with events that have gone on within the Marvel U.http://www.newsarama.com/comics/Hulk-Thor-Battle-Snider-100311.html
Haha, Thor fans really shot themselves in the foot by asking an interview. The story took place in a one shot along side another obviously non-canon tale so it would have probably been ignored but now it's semi-canon.
It's ultimately an irrelevant outlier but still hurts.

Thor didn't really look like he went all out in that fight.
He didn't? I mean when they were moving at light speed because of that device, Thor seemed to be putting in work. The dialog didn't suggest that he was holding back or anything. Then again Tutinax was all up in his face, which would kind of make it hard for him to do anything else but engage him in a brawl.

The book itself is canon. The events which transpired in it...as the writer states in the interview, Banner could possibly be recalling them wrong by his statement "Yeah, right...and then I woke up." Of course, people, both Hulk and Thor fans, want to make that scan mean something more than it's supposed to be, and given the vast history of attempts to use Mjolnir against Thor, it's definitely an outlier and shouldn't be seriously considered something that falls within the norm.

I was thinking that the book was less credible because Snider wrote it. The fact that his father Dee Snider happens to be the biggest Hulk fan in Hollywood may have had something to do with it as well. I wonder how people would have felt if Perez or Simonson wrote it? All the same, it was still within 616 canon, so it happened even though it was rated as only being semi contiguous.
We all know that fiction is what it is, and Aunt May could have just as easily been written to have done exactly what the Savage Hulk did from any given writers perspective. It's the explaining part that becomes difficult. Yet, it being the Hulk that did it, leads to it being less far fetched however.
