Or Lobo
Or Mr. Majestic

where as Hulk has a limit that increases.

when has Hulk been shown to have a consistent limit?

You really are just a fanboy eh 🙁

Again the question. Why isn't Curryman banned yet? 😈

I know of all people you are not calling somebody fanboy, your the King fanboy.

If we go by feats, Thor doesn't have any cap on strength and that's fact. Marvel writers will Thor, Hulk as strong as they need to be, its not out the realm of possible ability of Thor matching either Hulk or Superman in lifting. And that goes for Captain Marvel, ORion Majestic also!!

facepalm If that's the case, every character in comic history has unlimited strength

Shush.

not really, no

many characters have very well established limits in their strength

Spider-Man might be tough to nail down exactly, but nobody thinks he is pushing 50 tons (at least last I checked)

No. it's plain and simple. He thinks strength depends on writers(which is true in a way) we might as well accept every character has unlimited strength, no matter what your definition of unlimited strength is.

I agree with Oliver North.

I'm starting to think you all are taking this the wrong way....

Strength can fluctuate based on writer, but most characters have general limits- like Oliver said.

It seems that the High Herald level is where strength caps are left deliberately vague.

I don't think Thor matches a character like Superman based on historical feats, but I wouldn't be surprised if I read a comic where Thor busted out some feat that trumped Superman, Hulk and anyone else.

Thor, Hulk, Superman, Hyperion, etc. will typically be just as strong as they need to be.

This is probably the smartest approach to take. Based on comics.

100% concur 👆, Because we don't see Thor doing as much as his peers doesn't mean they he can't, if a story needs Thor to hold up Earth weight or resist the weight of neutron star or a score of plants they will make it happen, him or any herald level character.

Hulk and Superman are the strength guys...

Thors high end feats are usually more energy related.

That's like saying most Superman feats involve him wearing a cape.

Sure if "The Cape" was used as an almost indestructible shield, absorbs all sorts of energy, discharges all sorts of energy, allows him to fly at FTL speeds, enhances his striking power (all his best striking feats are with that hammer), transmutes matter, allows him to teleport between dimensions, and is basically a plot device that comes up with whatever power is needed to beat the villain.

If Superman's Cape does all that, sign me up for one.
