The OP doesn't talk about which one has punches that can create the most exotic, mystical, reality-bending etc effects though. It's very very specific: who punches HARDER.

Sure, punching a bull so that it transforms into a meat stall complete with a sign is a crazy reality-altering feat, but it's got nothing to do with punch-strength. Can someone post an example of Popeye punching something with any sort of force even approaching a top-level Hulk punch? Doubt it.

Of course it has to do with strength.

He's no spellcaster or energy manipulator so unless its noted otherwise he's so strong he bends reality.

Ridiculous argument. The only 'reality-bending' going on here is how you're twisting a feat which is admittedly weird and inexplicable and saying "Ta-dah! Because Popeye is strong, he must be bending reality with his super punching-power". When in fact all we see is a pretty stupid b/w cartoon cheese feat. Hulk has dozens and dozens of on-page examples of punching-power feats that are all worthy of an all-star mention.

I don 't even really like Hulk. But I like even less the trendy 'toon-veneration' that goes on on KMC.

^^^I'd still favor Hulk on lifting feats, if that helps. 😛

Aren't ALL of Hulk's feats achieved by strength, despite logic dictating otherwise?

How does he grab energy? He's super angry, so he can.

How does he punch time?

How does he resist teleportation?

Transmutation?

All done by strength.

Reality is just another barrier that is cracked by Popeye's strength.

What's worse, that's Popeye holding back!

I'd change 'strength' to 'striking power' having thought on it, but you're right, in that its how Popeye does what he does.

Popeye wins

Slightly off-topic question: does the burly guy with the beard who is Popeye's nemesis ( I don't know his name) ever show similarly outrageous strength feats in the Popeye-verse, or is it just him?

Pluto? He's usually stronger at base, until Popeye eats his spinach and then goes all out.

What's this Blutocracy? I hope your mistype was because of some cellphone technical stupidity.

👆.

For some reason my phone thinks Pluto is a more probable arrangement of letters....

HaHa, Pluto...!

I dislike gag/parody characters in battle boards so Hulk 10/10
