Yeah. Just because Hulks powerset revolves around being angry....doesn't make him any angrier than a normal guy who snapped and became a mass murderer.Hulk still draws the line at killing,no matter how angry he gets.
Castle doesn't.
By that logic any murderer has gotten angrier than the Hulk.
Wolverine is the angriest man in comics then.
Bane is a pretty angry guy. Born in prison and carried out his father's sentence until he escaped at about 18. For most of that time he had to fight in prison death matches and/or resist drowning in his cell that would flood to the very top every night. Oh and his mom died in prison while he was very young, and he had to killed an adult prisoner at age 8 who wanted to rape him.
Also too much venom drives him into a wolverine like berserker rage.

Hulk's also supposed to be the strongest one there is, and you'll find plenty of posters who rank other characters higher.Thats all i was asking. 👆
I just thought it was funny that Hulk was in there. Hope I didn't sound upset.
I still think Batman, getting so mad you become basically a metahuman has to be pretty up there.

This is entirely subjective, but I'd have to go with Wolverine and the Punisher. The reason is even though anger is a habitual part of their personality, it is a character contrast to their existing empathy and deep buried compassion. Wolverine and Punisher are not evil people, at least not in my perception, but they commit evil acts against those they believe deserve it because of how extreme their levels of anger become.
Orion and Superman have been angry and their anger can result in massive danger and destruction, but they don't have a usual pattern or development of anger, it's more as though they just snap when they are unable to restrain emotion.
Lobo has expressed anger many times, but he is naturally sadistic, naturally evil, and has little to no empathic qualities to contrast with his anger. Whether he is angry or not makes no difference in what he would do to another being. He would torture and kill someone simply because he felt like it, and no anger is even required on his part to get to that point.
Thor, like Superman, has shown anger many times, and actually has a greater pattern of anger and rage than Superman does. He went crazy when he was drunk on the Power Gem of course, and he's beaten Iron Man nearly to death and tried to kill Angela and Jane Thor in his natural rage, but I just don't perceive his anger to be on the same level as Wolverine and the Punisher - it's more like spoiled God anger, the anger of an offended God, an ego that was bruised - while Wolverine / Punisher's anger derives from long festered pain and misery which grew over the years.
Batman is angry and has deep buried anger and is obviously not a mentally stable being, despite his efforts to retain his sanity. He has snapped and has been unrecognizable many a time when his emotions get the best of him, but he has not done anything close to what the Punisher or Wolverine have done in terms of brutality and violence.
The Punisher is the Angriest character on this list, followed by Wolverine in my opinion.
