zeus has been hurt all the time by ares, she hulk and namor, hercules atc atc. Zeus is always portrayed that way, his power is in his magic but he has a problem in physical fights. his best showing is beating up Hulk but that was also because his magic fists canceled hulks healing factor, and without his healing factor many could take hulk down and easily. Zeus was shown to get hurt and put on his ass by much lesser than a guy who break a dimension with each punch.

think about that from the next point of view. hulks healing factor is able to heal him from getting all his flesh burned up to his skeleton in a moment. no matter how brutal the physical damage he recieved he should be able to heal. when someone is able to heal from almost a skeleton no matter how bad the physical damage is, that person will heal up. however what we saw is zeus fists glowing with lightning punching hulk and his healing factor was canceled he couldnt heal. thats magic effect all day long.

Originally posted by JuggernautManiaHealing factors are written differently all the time, doesn't necessary mean it's magical punches especially since it was never stated iirc. Deadpool and Wolverine have healed from nukes in moments yet their HF have been taxed out on many occasions and if anything can tax out Hulk's HF why not a beating from a Skyfather? HF canceling punches was just a theory someone came up with.

Didn't Hephaestus say that Hulk was touched by Zeus' magic and that's why he wasn't healing? I could have sworn I saw that scan posted on this forum.
"You've been hit by Zeus. Your strength won't return for a long time and your wounds will only heal fast enough..."

To keep them fed.
How did he know Hulk strength was depleted (and he couldn't amp) and his healing factor was gone?

So they knew Hulk would go months without his healing factor and true super strength?
