Pre-reboot? Potentially Hulk, but that's it.

Post reboot? Plenty of people for the moment, though very few in DC if any; Superman's already been called the most powerful person on the planet.

all you can say is that he's strong enough to lock arms with oldschool surfer, and later he was "posing a threat" to thanos, though thanos was playing possum and thanos was never struck himself to prove he could be beaten to death

The reason I brought that up is because one of those statements is a lie. Two people can't be the most powerful on the planet.

He didn't "lock arms" with the Surfer. He physically overpowered him (prying his arms away from Runner's blast) while laughing in his face.

Going by feats there really isn't anybody who is physically stronger than superman if you looked at his entire history

PillarofOsiris
By feats you might be right. But based on his fights with certain people, he has clearly been overpowered (SBP as a good example).

Yea I know but on paper based off what he's done majority of those listed can't compete without amping....IMO he really is the strongest there is

IMHO DC isn't tiered strength wise like marvel is. What you see in Marvel, Zeus did to WWH and what Odin does to Thor on a regular basis doesn't happen in DC. DC emphasizes more on physical traits while Marvel is more energy based. In DC everyone dukes it out. . Infinity Man, Darkseid, Superman, DD, hell even the source. And the top Dog is Superman. No one in comics is stronger than superman. If skyfather level beings from marvel were to invade dc, and decide to duke it out, they will have to get in line. IMO There is Superman and then there is everyone else.

DarkSaint85
I thought Zeus duked it out with Hulk?

Diesldude
Yeah and put him in his place. That wasn't his first choice of attack, he was goaded into a fist fight by wwh. But those where just my personal feelings.

i MIGHT throw thanos in there, but he is by no means clearly stronger imo. he doesn't really fight prolonged h2h battles so it's a little hard to gauge exactly how strong he is.

KuRuPT Thanosi
I would say Thanos is stronger than Superman... Leo is right that its hard to define because of Thanos's lack of lifting feats and prolonged h2h battles.. But I still believe Thanos to be stronger.

I'd say Thanos is stronger.

Ignoring this craziness...

Captain Marvel is just as strong as Supes.
Adam is stronger imo.
Doomsday is stronger
Despero is stronger
Thor is a peer
Savag Hulk is stronger
Thanos is stronger.

The list goes on.

He's not wrong on all accounts. Some, but not all.

PillarofOsiris
He's basically only right about Doomsday (maybe), Despero and Thanos....And epicly wrong about the others.

JakeTheBank
The argument can definitely be made for Cap being equal, considering their direct contests of strength. Thor is a peer to Superman physically (not sure how one can disagree). I don't think Savage Hulk or Black Adam are stronger than Superman, though.

janus77
Savage Hulk is stronger than Thor, so if Thor and Superman are peers, Savage Hulk must be stronger than Supes too.

Is Count Nefaria stronger than supes?

I don't think Thor is a peer to Superman. Don't care what you guys say uhuh

not just "abc logic", but also comparison with Pre-C and Savage Hulk too.

Hulk's feats are pretty much there, punching through the timestream, ripping apart defences meant to guard against The Celestials ...

Physically, Savage Hulk > Superman.

I was going to be done with this thread but then I saw this nonsense. What feats would you say place Sentry above Superman in physical strength? I can't wait to hear this. (although I have to woner (great word) why I care what a guy who thinks Thanos solos a Celestial thinks).

Nothing any version of the Hulk has ever done on panel makes me think that any of them are above a guy who lifted infinite weight multiple times. I will say that POSSIBLY, Hulk could POTENTIALLY get stronger than Superman after being madder than he's ever been before, and I'm not sure how he could even get madder than he's been.... But by the time that happened he'd be dead anyway if Superman wasn't holding back.

People want to keep bringing up Hulk's fight against PC Superman as some sort of evidence Post Crisis, Pre-reboot Superman (PCPR Superman) would get wrecked. That's fine. Hulk didn't budge a PC Superman who didn't want to hurt him. Now compare that to Superman's fights with SBP, and Kal-L.

I agree, just look at the ease superman grabbed that electronic device that was making hulk madder than he normally would have been.

That device was also making hulk unreasonably angry. Now tell me if that's not AMP .
Superman removed it with ease, if he wanted to kill him, he could have created a mixture of xray vision and heat vision to fry hulk's brains. he could have done anything, while an amped hulk was doing everything in his power but couldn't even BUDGE superman. I don't know how that's a good showing for the hulk. I guess a person is considered in the same class if he step in the ring with superman at the same time.

The one where he had his hands on his hip and let an amped hulk pound away? Then used his supers peed to grab the device that was was enraging the hulk without the hulk even noticing. Superman wasn't fighting the hulk, at first he underestimated him, but when he got serious, the hulk couldn't do squat. But that's another story. Hulk has potential to reach superman, but i don't think it's humanly possible. Hulk will need special circumstances and an outside amp just to have a chance.

I only mentioned the cross over because it was brought up, carver wanted to pursue it further, but i rather not get a warning so I stopped. But to answer your question, the hulk was getting stronger because the device was making hulk angrier/madder and I considered that an AMP.

Wow. Never realized such a different perspective could exist, let alone that I would read it here.

I considered Hulk getting angrier and more frustrated because that unit consistently kept making noise, yes, but Hulk, who thought SUPERMAN was responsible for that noise, was getting upset about not being able to knock Superman out/away/etc thus getting rid of that noise. Insults to Hulk's strength, intentional or not, historically tend to make him madder.

JakeTheBank
That device also didn't alter his body chemistry to make him more susceptible to anger or boost his strength.
