But I maintain my earlier stance that Hulk is not FAR and away stronger and more durable than Thor considering his high end feats of physical power. One has to consider not only cheese feats, but combat feats against incredibly powerful opponents.Don't get me wrong. Hulk in HotM was an absolute monster. But Thor has done some ridiculously powerful things throughout his history that sometimes get overlooked.
One that comes to mind is when The Demogorge feasted on multiple champion gods, only Thor was able to endure and break free from Atum's clutches. What makes it that much more impressive was the fact that it just finished feasting on multiple hell lords that included the likes of Set, Pluto, Hela, and Mephisto(skyfatherish characters in their own right). Not one was able to overpower the digestive process of the Demogorge. Contextwise, it is an incredible feat of strength and endurance. The Demogorge had also amped its power after feeding on said gods, but Thor broke free and started to tear shiet up even when his own strength was being sapped away.

Another incredibly impressive feat was when he hammer tossed the Phoenix entity and briefly ko'd it. What made it even more ridiculous is the fact that the force of Thor's attack sent the entity to a far off planet. Now if that was a herald he knocked, it would have been tremendous still when we take into account the distance the force of the blow produced... But this was the entirety of the Phoenix entity. Nutz. 😬
Description of scene from Hickman himself.
Here we've got a pretty epic confrontation between Thor and the Phoenix. What exactly happens in this scene. Does Thor hit the Phoenix so hard that it needs to stop and refuel?
[b]Yeah, the idea was here's was basically Phoenix versus a god, which, you know, seems like a fair fight. So Thor went and smacked the Phoenix so hard that he knocked the bird out. [Laughs] He thinks he won, but it lands on another planet and then all of a sudden the planet lights up and the Phoenix consumes it. At that point Thor realizes he's screwed, and we realize not even a god can stop it.
How about the time he and Bill indirectly destroyed Surtur's portal that dwarfed the suns? The portal replaced the core of Bill's galaxy. How powerful must the force be to create that kind of a shockwave? This is just stupid.

Along with Surfer and Scrier's herald, he tanks an initial attack(before shielding themselves) from 3 beings that were powerful enough to cause multiversal havoc.

Of course I'd be remiss if I didn't add this. He tanked multiple attacks from beings that on panel crunched a universe(s) to make a toy, killed multiple celestials, killed Lord Chaos and Master Order(and Inbetweener), killed Infinity and Eternity, killed the Living Tribunal who was stated to be the multiverse taken form.

Even more bonkers was when he and Hyperion started swatting and smashing a numberless horde of these Beyonders before ultimately falling. In a word, glorious!

And speaking of Celestials... 😏

Then we can add him things like the Midgard Serpent, or Godbomb world shattering, or pushing the World Engine which was essentially pushing against the "will" of the World Tree(cosmic axis of the ten realms which we now know are complete universes unto themselves). [/B]
None of those feats even show Thor having the necessary strength to destroy a planet with a single punch (which is billions of times less than what WBH did). If you disagree then which feat shows it?
The world tree feat is unquantifiable. It could have taken 1000 tons of force to achieve for all we know.
