Prove Hulk stands when she pulls the spear out and not after she pulls it out. Simple.

His knees are above the ground, not on it. Also, the weight was said to be on his BACK which means if he is standing upward, he still overpowered the weight.
But his knees are bent. Are you saying Hulk lifted a sun and then entered a yoga pose?

Those... are his knees? Not his feet?

He just goes from on all fours to kneeling upright and we only see him kneel upright after the spear is out.

He's standing in a convenient trench.

If anything, it looks like Hulk's knees only come off the ground because of the force of Proxima yanking the spear out.

Which, checks out. Apparently she's strong enough to casually leap and chuck an object with stellar mass so manhandling Hulk should be no problem.

Yeah, that's the impression I got from reading the scans.

I recognize that getting into the angle of Hulk's knees to the ground means analyzing the art on a level that was never meant to hold up to scrutiny.

But, we're only looking at the scan that closely because Carver's arguing about what happened in between the panels. There's no lifting feat based on dialogue or indication of writer intent but he keeps bringing it up so we're left to take a magnifying glass to the scan and look for any hint of a feat.

The physics of the spear
The weight of the star can be activated and deactivated. She increased the density after being thrown. It also has the ability to become black light that can trace its victims path (weightless) and poison them.
She controls the spear mentally. She can decrease the density and pull the spear out, etc

O...k?

I already did. With the scan I posted. Prove Proxima pulled the sword out when he was crouched over.

He wasn't crouched like he was before and his knees are above the geound.

Show me Hulk coming off the ground due to Proxima.

All of her staff abilities needs to be activated, unless you think Proxima is stronger than Hulk. She's casually carrying around something that had Hulk on his knees. If you think she is stronger than him, you are obviously trolling. If she isn't stronger than him, it means that the staff activates its weight when Proxima wants it to. Choose your poison.

Your scan doesn't show that conclusively, though. I can use the exact same scan to claim it proves my point. Neither of us can use it as conclusive proof, that's what I'm trying to say.

Isn't this what you said?

Now you're adding these special properties where the staff activates and deactivates. For the record, I agree that it does, by the way - I am bringing this up however to show how you're blatantly ok with adding interpretation where the comic does not state facts.

Oh ok.

So Proxima deactivated the weight, allowing her to retrieve the spear and Hulk to go from all fours to kneeling upright.

You know that she can increase and decrease the density at will? Obviously she will decrease the density before pulling it out.

Man you got him arguing against himself.

The spear changed colors as soon as she grabbed it "while Hulk was standing as shown in the scan" and snatched it out. Don't know why you are making this difficult while also changing your argument at least 3 times in this debate

First, he's not standing.

Second:

You have no idea what happened as soon as she grabbed it, because there is no panel showing that moment.

You have no idea whether Hulk was already upright when she grabbed it, or whether her grabbing it forced him upright.... because there is no panel showing that moment.

You have no idea when the spear shifted from stellar density to non-stellar density........... because there is. no. panel. showing. that. moment.

Your refusal to acknowledge the ambiguity is just proof of your bias.

Bruh, nobody cares about Proxima Midnight's spear.

Not like the Earth, let alone the ground beneath their feet, collapsed under the weight of the transformed spear's "star weight." Sure, it may have been a personal gravity well focused on Hulk's body, especially given Hulk's lifting feats, but it's not pertinent to this thread.

I get that you referenced this feat in direct response to Lobo throwing a star but that Lobo feat has absolutely nothing to with this thread either.
