Hands down, no hyperbole and skimming thru their canon comic history. Feat-wise who is the better of the two?

Hulk crushes thor in strength, that's for sure.

In close H2H combat, slugging it out & lifting, pushing and striking strength, healing factor, durability & fighting speeds...Hulk smash thor! But in overall versatality thor dominates hulk.......pretty easily, he has a much wider array of powers, and that's coming from a really big hulk fan, but in a feat vs feat between thor an hulk......thor is more impressive, although hulk has the potential to be a lot more impressive and live up to the basic character outline = pure & Utter near limitless strength.......

Hulk wins in healing and the last 6 years he's winning in strength.

Before that Thor had him in just about every category there was, unless we're specifically excluding every single non-herald fight the Hulk's been in. Which, you know, is about 90% of his fights

It's a very charming notion, that someone who gets brought to the brink of death by the Abomination could compete against what Thor regularly deals with, but hey, that's how it goes!

Yea I'm not taking any sides yet just trying to gauge where they rate next to each other solely based off feats

Hulk strength, Thor versatility. That was easy.

Thor literally matches a Savage Hulk's strength in a grappling contest for an entire hour, from Defenders #10:

Hulk tears an island from the ocean floor and then he swims with the island held above his head...! (Third picture shows the island in scale.)

The Hulk's increasing strength vs. An Elder's most powerful force field. Guess which wins.

Your links does not work.

The Hulk pushes apart the spheres of an anti-matter bomb... then hits one with such force, it overcomes the inertial field.

Overall. And based solely on feats.. Not strength and versatility categories

Hulk crushes Thor in terms of on panel feats.

A good majority of Thor's "feats" are really just Mjolnir doing it's thing. Thor's two best feats that don't involve Mjolnir that I can think of are : surviving multiple shots by angry Celestials and resisting Wolverine's claws as much as he did.

They were glancing blows, for crying out loud...

Sin, you should through out what categories you want discussed

The characters are different. Hulks is more one dimensional as his schtick is strength so he beats Thor soundly in strength feats, while Thor has the versatility/ energy projection stuff. Pretty straightforward

Mjolnir doing its thing is Thor doing his thing. Can't separate the two since it's part of his power set. It's part of the character. It's like separating Orion from his astro force/harness.

i thought i was specific. I know that hulk has better strength, thor has better variety etc. What Im talking about is overall. Based solely on how they perform on panel, who is the better herald?

In strength under Pak, sure. As a whole? Not really. Thor's energy projection/absorbing/random ass powers as well as facing way more impressive threats than Hulk as a whole are firmly in his favor.

Also you can't really divorce Thor from Mjolnir as it's a part of his character and has been since the 60's.

Thor generally deals with threats greater than what Hulk deals with.

u cant really call that a fight

the tier difference is huge, but he made them aware of him which is the point.

Define "better", because that's a REALLY vague term to use for a thread.

This is the Problem with Hulk fans. They use every Hulk feat possible despite the fact that Hulk strength/power level varies depending on how angry he is. I honestly thing that when Thor stalemated Hulk for one hour should be enough proof to indicate how weak Hulk can actually be. Yes obviously after some rage increase, he will eventually surpass Thor, but at starting level, HELLL NOOO

So the way I see it
Thor is better in a lot of ways including strength. Given enough time however, Hulk surpass it.

ROFL you're drunk.

Me?

Hmmmm....lets put it this way. Superman is your favorite character right, or Aquaman. You have all his powers an know how and you have to face Thor or Hulk. At their best who is the deadlier adversary?

Superman is my favourite DC character, but not my absolute favourite.

I'd rather face Thor, because Thor could be reasoned with.

If neither could be reasoned with, Thor would be the one i'd want to avoid.

Hulk is stronger. His base is at HH level now. He is no longer the "weak when normal, powerful when angry" Hulkster.

it varies, imo the best depiction of the whole "tho vs hulk" scenario was in incredible hulk annual v1 #2001.

?

you know, a book

For the past few years, base Hulk is >= typical Thor in strength.

i was replying to those who say that hulk is equal to thor in strength, this showing varies over the history. and the best depiction was in the issue ive stated where it shows that hulk is stronger but thor is more powerful.

reading it now

Thor is the better of the two feat wise.

This is up for debate? Thor hands down. Totally different class of enemies and threats.

Classic Hulk has the crazier feats i.e. punching through a time storm, affecting the multiverse? with a punch, stopping a tear in space from expanding with brute strength, re-directing a dimension destroying attack with a thunderclap, taking heavy blasts from Galactus, the links don't work anymore, so there's just a couple more, ill send some thor ones in about 20 minutes

Thor resists a force "as though half a planet" were bearing down on him, from Thor #140:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rength14140.jpg

Thor resists the gravimetric pull akin to "that of a neutron star" and busts out, from Thor #281:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rStrength25.jpg

Thor actually lifts the Midgard Serpent away from the Earth. Note that the catastrophic effects of such a feat are actually physically felt on Earth, from Thor #327:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rength31327.jpg

He lifts him again in Thor #379:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rength35379.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rength36379.jpg

Unquantifiable, Thor's mortal essence "grows," granting him the strength and will to push the Worldengine and reverse the Yggdrasil Tree, from Thor #494:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...rength42494.jpg

Impossibly, his Asgardian skin receives a direct slash by Wolverine's adamantium claws which leave only scratches on his face, from Wolverine vs Thor #1:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...evsThor01Pi.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...urability46.jpg
(IMO one of his great durability showings)

And if that's not impressive enough, he's also no-selled a pummelling by both Maxam and Drax (w/ Power Gem) in Thor #469:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...y32469Blunt.jpg

And what does "a blow that could shatter diamonds" do? It makes Thor blink, from Avengers #401:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...y36401Blunt.jpg

Thor survives the concussive blast of vibro-mines which are capable of shattering apart alien steel in Thor #281:

So are you talking about if you have Thor's or Hulk's powers, how would you deal with Thor or Hulk?

If I were Thor and I'm facing Hulk, I would just use my powers of Teleportation and send Hulk to Ginnunggagap(the Asgardian Void).End of Hulk there w/ in 3 seconds

If I were Hulk, I would hope Thor goes for the melee fighting combat.Which Thor would probably do.I'll try to bash Thor until he's done for.Of course this will take longer time :

Thor wins due to having more super-powers that Hulk will never have
