Tbh, any elite would be significantly hurt or negatively effected by the shockwave of WBH's feat. If you take it with full faith and credit that he (and Betty) essentially vaporized Savage Hulk physical peers amped by 1000 or whatever, I think only the delusional and most rabid fanboys would argue against that.
Of course, given the other elites feats in question, there's more than enough to suggest them surviving as well.
You're welcome, Carter.

Nobody's saying they wouldn't be hurt.
Pretending the truly elite heralds would be too badly hurt to continue, or even vaporised, is pushing it a little, I think.
Well, more than a little.

Yeah, I know, but it's best to solve Carver's problems for him from time to time just so he doesn't hurt himself. He's like a toddler.
Yes, though I can definitely understand the argument for it though I ultimately disagree with that assumption that they would be Gamma'd to death.

But watching him fall down is part of the fun. Spoil-sport.
I'm surprised nobody had post scans yet of the Kang/Thor feat.
IIRC Kang used his energy or something that made about half the planet weight upon Thor. It brought down Thor IIRC but in the next scene it showed Thor playing possum and got up from that weight easily. I could be remembering it wrong though?
Anyone have scans of that?

Just compare that feat (the crown jewel of wbh power) vs the best durability feats of say, Annihilators.

It is. But sometimes it just gets annoying to see him butcher his own argument when the core of what he's trying to say isn't actually totally insane.
Obviously, given his allegiance, he's going to take it to absurd levels, but I can watch only so much self-inflicted harm before I have to do the right thing.

That wasn't why I mentioned them.

I suppose with how rare that is, you take it when you can get it.
lol, do the right thing. This is the internet.
Originally posted by zopzopAs I said, the character is a shape-changer. It isn't even in a solid form most of the time. Have you read all of these, or just remembering a couple scans? Because it has appeared over and over and each time the narration goes through these details one way or another. The thing basically exists in both dimensions in a kind of dual state, but can shift more into one realm if it chooses. It has never been said to be anything less than capable of encircling the planet. What is shown of it does vary.:
To add fuel to this fire, when the serpent appeared again in the 90s, on Earth (not in the void or other dimension), it was nowhere near planetary size. I think the narrator said it "stretched for miles". That's about it.
Which is why the writers have never even tried to give it's appearance any kind of consistency.
But, it's hard to argue something if statements and scans and history are getting ignored. When I have time, I will dig.
And, I can't find all the Polaroids that I used to have of it.

lolwut, you've effectively latched onto an attempt to "bust" a non-myth.The Midgard Serpent varies in size and length depending on how it manifests on the planet. The instance Zop showed, which was a dead Midgard Serpent, didn't even come remotely close to being the same thing as the one that Thor removed from the planet. Nor was the one that manifested itself in Thor: Disassembled. At least on panel. For all we know, it could be in its "globe encircling" size as it referred to as the Midgard Serpent, but it wasn't shown in the comic nor did it achieve the same effects as before, so I wouldn't personally claim it was, but its not impossible.
Using examples of those where the serpent clearly isn't shown to encircle the globe as evidence as to why Thor lifting it is a non-feat is pretty ridiculous to say the least. And the argument concerning the difference between Asgard and Midgard to be the same as the difference between normal DC reality and that of the New Gods is laughable. It is completely not the same thing at all.
I never personally attempted to quantify the Midgard Serpent as calculating the weight is a test in futility, to say nothing of the resistance such a creature would exert. But to go to the lengths as to render it a non-feat? 😂
Really not surprised, unfortunately.

Actually, its clear cut that teh midgard serpent which was shown in Thor 327 encircling earth did that feat because of the void, you are welcome to bust that non-myth buster though. Not surprised by your reaction to that though.
Yes, I read the comic and I'm aware of what happened. Don't need you to try and break down the comic for me, thanks.
You're not surprised by my being amused by your fanboying over Phil? Makes sense, I guess.
