He went for a center of mass stab against Superman. That's a killing blow.

If Steppenwolf would have had his axe knocked away the AM would have still went for killing attacks against him.

If he doesn't have the propensity to do so, then he won't do it from the get go- something you have argued many a time.

So prove he has the propensity.

So he DID go for a killing blows against Superman, having just been told to restrain him by WW, and having just brought him back from the dead?

Whatever happened to writer's intent *sigh*.

Your made up story sounds fascinating, though, it really does.

Would love to see close-ups of this 'bladed trident' though.

I gave 3 examples of him going for killing attacks. You gave 1.
Changing the goalposts to MORE POWERFUL unarmed combatants is meaningless.

I asked for him going up against unarmed combatants. Were your examples unarmed?

Not that it is relevant to the discussion but
What does going up against means exactly? Arthur attempted to stab Superman in the chest area.

I've not even seen the evidence the Trident could do any significant damage to Hulk, so not sure how relevant the above argument is until we can establish that.

They havent even officially confirmed Hulk gets stronger as he gets madder.

Something again Ang Lee did make clear in his one film.

So yeah MCU has done Hulk dirty (somewhat) in multiple ways. The Snap was the perfect time to confirm his healing abilities but I guess they wanted She-Hulk to the rescue instead.

Aye, that too.

The Leviathans were said by Zak Penn, co-writer of the first Avengers, to be probably like three million tons. While that figure is incredibly stupid and would make them cartoonishly dense this still means that Penn saw no problem with having Hulk punch and flip something which weighs three million tons.

Even the most charitable estimates of Aquaman's submarine feat put it at about 20,000 tons or so (accounting for not just the submarine's weight but things like drag and displacing all that water so quickly), well short of Hulk's strength.

Only Kryptonians have feats or statements around or in excess of strength like that in the DCEU.

I assume that was an offhand joke, as it's completely inconsistent with what we've seen of the actions and durability and Hulk's later feats.

Then again, maybe Hulk is the most powerful Avenger 🙂

He should be the "Strongest".

But Captain Marvel and maybe even Ant-Man seemed stronger in Endgame.

The issue with Hulk is that not only did they absolutely drop the ball on him in the first place, but due to his licensing rights being all screwed up through several companies, he's the only Avenger who hasn't had 1-2 solo films or a show after the formation of the group to really show off and solidify what it is he can do and show off how powerful he can be on his own.

We had 08 Hulk(Norton) from before but aside from having the scar Abomination gave him, he's basically a whole new person and his powers are treated differently. Then Ruffalo shows up in Avengers. After that, he's in every Avengers film, and is a support character in Ragnarok, and a support in She-Hulk. But Cap has 3 movies, Ant-Man has 3, Widow has 1, Hawkeye has his show, Iron Man has 3, Captain Marvel has 2 and is always the strongest no matter what, they really hammer that home. Like all the f*cking time.

Thor has 4. Panther has 2. Spidey has 3. Falcon and Bucky have their show as well as being showcased in Winter Soldier/Civil War. Wanda has her show and is the big bad of MoM. Strange has 3 if you count No Way Home. Hulk has only ever been help for others and it's just a shame to see how he's been treated over the past decade+ since they essentially nerf him into the dirt every chance they get to make someone else look good or just to say screw Hulk I guess.
