I mean fearing and avoiding the nuke is one thing. That doesn't mean he couldn't have survived it. Its kind of like Thor in Hulk's cage in Avengers. I think he didn't know if he could survive...and he definitely didn't want to test his luck, if you know what I mean.
Edit BTW I ain't claiming he could have survived it.

While I read that Superman comic, I was asking myself the same thing. Could he survive it, and why is he flying away. But from seeing him get the one shot concussion to KO at the hands of Helspont, I'm really questioning whether or not he could tank a nuke. After all his impact with the moon created a crater, but nothing that he wouldn't have shaken off prior to Flash Point.
This may seem odd, but I like this Superman more than the nothing can beat him if he put his mind and soul into it, Superman. It gives him more flavor.

Current Hulk just tanked a nuke though that engulfed a good portion of the planet. Avengers Hulk is a freaking monster. Not clear what Hulk you are talking about.
I'm not sure what Hulk that Avengers Assemble Hulk is. That Hulk should not even be counted as canon, I mean have you read his dialog? He's back to being Savage persona Hulk, and that doesn't fit with the mainstream title. Nor does it give an explanation as to why he's back to the "Leave Hulk alone", "Hulk no dummy", and "Hulk Smash... uh?". I have always despised the dumb versions of the character. This seems to be a spin off of the Avenger's movie.

I agree. That concussion was nasty, but we don't know just how powerful Hel is. Apparentely he is quite powerful.
I don't mind Superman willing himself to do something...what I don't like is him doing that becoming the status quo for every single event.
Kindda like Fairy Tail and Naruto(well shonen manga in general) where the chars win simply because of the power of their friendship/emotions/will! It gets old fast.

I did not say that it wasn't canon. I just said that it doesn't make a bit of sense. Do you recall the Avenger's re-recruiting the Hulk? Do you recall when he got hit in the head in his mainstream book to cause him to become mentally challenged? I recall the Movies version of the Hulk, and him being dumb in it. Also what was the explanation behind Thanos getting out of the cancerverse? What happened to Richard Rider, and why hasn't someone at Marvel gotten fired for not reading, or sticking to continuity. You see where I'm going with this?
Ah Ok, I saw the scan, and I see your point, the Hulk would have survived the nuke that Kal decided to prudently fly away from, but it does not prove that Kal would not have been able to survive the hit, he just decided to spare himself from senseless harm.
