No, that wouldn't happen at all, because Hulk is nothing like those characters.

nah. The marvel universe consists of a lot of mutant and other types, I think the Superman types don't fit in well. The most popular heros in marvel are not even close to hearld class characters. Spiderman, captain America, wolverine. Supes needs to stay in D.C. comics.
As far as who would be better in the marvel universe superman or thor, id have to say thor for sure.
If Superman's rights are owned by Marvel would they be able to keep his history and interactions with the other DC characters? If so I think just having Superman stay as he is without re-imagining him or changing his character history one bit would work, and having his story in Marvel be that he somehow got sent to the MU in some kind of dimensional rift event and can't ever return to his native universe under any circumstances (the event being impossible to replicate) would work fine enough. I wouldn't have him join the Avengers though. I think he should work directly for the U.N. and have tensions with the other heroes as he becomes the new global golden boy. Maybe even envy by other heroes (save someone like Captain America). I think eventually they should have an arc where the difference in frequency of sunlight between the MU and DCU cause his power levels to fluctuate and come more in line with Marvel's. It could be done right but I feel it would have to treat Supes history with absolute respect. The brand has earned that level of consideration.

It would probably be the crown jewel of a larger acquisition of DC's properties. Disney would buy the rights from whomever is the financial muscle of DC, and then after promising (lying) to keep the two separate, they would inevitably merge the properties into Marvel entertainment.
Think UFC buying Pride or the WWE buying out the WCW.

With Disney as it's (Marvel's) parent company, I could see that happening on some level in the future. And not just with Superman, but ALL of DC's stuff. Who is DC's financial muscle? Warner Bros?
Yeah, WB is the owner.
If Disney bought DC, it would be a sad, sad day for comics, imo.

Joe Q is now Chief Creative Officer of Marvel Entertainment. He's got a bigger role in all of Marvel's endeavors now and you'd better believe that he still has his hand in firm control of Axel Alonso's puppet strings.
Ouch.
The only chance I could give Superman at Marvel would be if Quesada had absolutely no input in to it.

Which would sadly mean there's no chance at all. Marvel comics is a SMALL portion of their revenue, but at the same time the overall brand comes from the comic material. Everything would go through Joe Q as a result because it's all a part of the overall direction of the toys, films, animations etc. Abnett and Lanning's run on "Nova" and "Guardians Of the Galaxy" were the first casualties of that new business model per Joe Q himself.
