Here's a scan from the comic:

"You've been hit by Zeus. Your strength won't return for a long time...and your wounds will only heal fast enough...."
Hulk spends the next few issues in intensive care, barely healing and being very weak. I was going to look for the interview but I think a direct scan is better (Also I'm lazy and a Thor fanboy not a Hulk fanboy) evidence.
Anyways, yea, Prime can't replicate what Zeus did.

Internal damage is meaningless to the Hulk, it makes no difference to his healing factor. Zeus' power did in someway nullify his healing factor. Somehow he was able to mess with it, Pak even went on to confirm that Zeus cheated during the fight. It might not have been intentional but it's still not something that Prime can replicate.
Sort of agree. I was asking about what exactly Zeus did, because I had read that line before and frankly I don't see how Zeus did anything to hinder his healing factor. Perhaps he beat him so bad his healing factor was taxed too much.
Not claiming Prime would be able to replicate what Zeus did though.

Yeah, I'm done with this. Who even brought up Zeus in this thread anyways?

I posted the comic as proof instead. 😐

I don't mean that Zeus' magic depowered Hulk or anything but his mystical nature f*cked with Hulk somehow as he couldn't get his strength back or heal fast for a while. Which is why Hephaestus specified being hit by Zeus.
By that I mean, even if Prime was more powerful then Zeus, I don't think he'd f*ck with the Hulk as much because pure physical damage doesn't overtax his healing factor that way.
Also, where are all the Hulk fans? I know one of them has the interview saved to dry their tears. I want to look for it, but I just don't care enough lol.
The hulk that fought Zeus was exponentially weaker than the one in HOTM. So they are not even analogues of one another. Further it is implied from the comments in the scan, as well as paks interview that hulks inability to heal was due to sometime unique to Zeus attack.
Simply put its irrelevant as SBP won't be replicating it at all.

About zeus affecting hulk's HF? Where?
The simple and speculation free explanation is that Zeus beat hulk so badly that his HF was overtaxed, not that zeus somehow messed up his HF.
IIRC, I mentioned how a weaker Hulk healed instantly from holes punched in his chest, to which Abhi responded by saying Hulk didn't heal from Zeus' as effectively. Too lazy to go back a couple of pages, so feel free to verify, anyone.
Anyway, my original point was that weaker and less angry forms of Hulk do have the capacity of nigh instant healing. Logically, HOTM Hulk would heal at a similar rate at the very least.

You are correct, that's how Zeus was brought up with a mixture of lowballing.

And it’s also questionable whether Zeus kept his word in the end. It was supposed to be a purely mano-a-mano battle, right? But isn’t Zeus throwing a lightning bolt at the end?
