You can roll you eyes of course -- but it doesn't make Hulk's showing any bigger of a feat. You can remove the coal feat, sure.
I'm keeping it, because it's funny. Although ranking it is pretty much just guesswork.
There's a difference between outliers [some of the feats in this list] and non-feats [or better said, not considerably impressive feats]. The Hulk feat is not an outlier, because the parameters concerning its magnitude are simply not impressive.I don't want to argue that Superman can punch the DC Universe away just because he punched the QWEWK one away because I do not have the required data to make that assertion. I don't blankly make false equivalencies that all Universes are equal -- and even moreso if I was in the situation to the Hulk feat where there is even counter-evidence, like light/sound and composition parameters -- which completely nullify it. As I said - "Universe" and "Cosmos" are not information about its size or composition. We have the information about its size and composition in the very issue the showings takes place.
Well let's look at it again. Before the punch that created the light, there was actually light beforehand when the Dark-Crawler first appeared, and Bruce could see just fine until the Scepter of Shadows turned everything dark. So it seems that the statement "Creating an accidental release of heat and flashing light which illumines an eons-dark cosmos" was contradicted, since it wasn't dark for eons beforehand. But one way to reconcile this is to say that that statement referred to the entire cosmos/dimension being lit up, as opposed to just part of it. Under this interpretation, the light we saw previously didn't illuminate the entire dimension, but that light would have been traveling at lightspeed (probably). So in order for the light created by the Hulk's punch to light up the entire dimension, as opposed to just part of it, which normal light failed to do, then that light must have been traveling faster than light. Yeah, makes very little sense. Let me see if I can try to phrase this idea more simply:
- Statement: The dimension was dark for eons
- Assumption: The previous statement referred to the entirety of the dimension, and wasn't counting local light sources that only illuminated parts of it
- Fact: There was light in the dimension before the Hulk's punch, just recently (and not eons ago)
- Assumption: That light before the punch didn't light up the whole dimension, which is why it could still be referred to as an 'Eons-dark cosmos'
- Inference: The Hulk's punch lit up the entire dimension at once
As to how this relates to the dimension's size:
- Fact: There was light in the dimension before the Hulk's punch, just recently (and not eons ago)
- Assumption: That light before the punch didn't light up the whole dimension, which is why it could still be referred to as an 'Eons-dark cosmos'
- Fact: Light travels at lightspeed (although possibly questionable due to weird dimensional physics)
- Inference: The light present before Hulk's punch was traveling at lightspeed
- Inference: Even traveling at lightspeed, that light failed to reach the far ends of the dimension, because it didn't fully illuminate it
- Inference: The light released by the Hulk's punch, which did fully illuminate the dimension, was somehow traveling faster than lightspeed
Wonky dimensional physics? Who knows.
I'd agree that it's probably about as large as Earth given that light covered the entire dimensionin moments -- I'll give you that, so we've found common ground here. So a space about big as Earth illuminated, alongside a deflection of multiple islands-busting.So I'd say the Update I put is fairly accurate.
If it was the size of Earth, then wouldn't the light that was present there beforehand have been enough to fully illuminate it?
As for the rest, I'll post an updated list with some notes in a bit.
Point is, there's debate about this feat, that it may not be as impressive as I've ranked it, but there is debate about a lot of other feats here too, such as the infinite book one.
Lol... of course he scratches out Hulk fts.
See what I mean? They NEVER ask superman fans for proof.
I'm trying to be as unbiased as I can and give different characters equal benefit of the doubt here. But I do think Superman's feats make him stronger than the Hulk (in most versions and circumstances).
Hulk lifting the weight of a Star, Hyperion holding back two universes, Gladiator containing an explosion that would have annihilated half the solar system and collapsing a star and tearing apart a black hole.
I have seen these but in this thread you should post scans.
. Destroying a multiverse with a punch which was a lie, why didn't he question that?
I don't know about Superman doing that, but the SBP feat posted (once I read all the context) did legitimately have him doing that.
Better than being choked out by a snake.
To be fair, I recall that the writer of the snake incident had stated that his intention was for it to be an enormous, monster-like snake, thicker than a large tree trunk, but the artist drew it a lot smaller than he wanted. Still a pretty low showing, though.
Pretty sure theres some feats of Mon El moving stars too.
You should post them so I can add them.
