Popeye has altered reality with his punches, as in your example. I'd say Popeye.

A better fight would be Popeye vs WBH.

I think this showing is better. Hulk punch so hard that he punches through time and not only does he punch through time, he reverse time all across the M.U.

Exactly. popeyes punch is able to reality wrap. punching a bull creating a whole meat stand out of him with plenty of meat sliced and ready in any form posibble. his punches alter reality to a very high degree. he wins.

Do you believe hulk can punch a bull and create a whole meat stand with a sign and writing on top of that? do you believe he can alter reality instantly with a single punch?

riv6672
If he does, he's cuh-raaaazy!

CosmicComet
I'd rather see Popeye vs One Punch Man.

Stoic
Even with the special effects created when Popeye punches, I can't see how the force of his punches are greater than the Hulks.

Surtur
Popeye can even just punch away magic.

Digi
Popeye has toon powers. This isn't even a fight.

riv6672
^^^this.

Popeye has better videogames so he wins smile

The OP doesn't talk about which one has punches that can create the most exotic, mystical, reality-bending etc effects though. It's very very specific: who punches HARDER.

Sure, punching a bull so that it transforms into a meat stall complete with a sign is a crazy reality-altering feat, but it's got nothing to do with punch-strength. Can someone post an example of Popeye punching something with any sort of force even approaching a top-level Hulk punch? Doubt it.

carver9
That changes things. Two Hulk's fighting shaking the planet.

Rulk and Hulk punches felt at the core of the planet (and right after this, they continue shaking the planet).

Of course it has to do with strength.

He's no spellcaster or energy manipulator so unless its noted otherwise he's so strong he bends reality.

Ridiculous argument. The only 'reality-bending' going on here is how you're twisting a feat which is admittedly weird and inexplicable and saying "Ta-dah! Because Popeye is strong, he must be bending reality with his super punching-power". When in fact all we see is a pretty stupid b/w cartoon cheese feat. Hulk has dozens and dozens of on-page examples of punching-power feats that are all worthy of an all-star mention.

I don 't even really like Hulk. But I like even less the trendy 'toon-veneration' that goes on on KMC.

riv6672
^^^I'd still favor Hulk on lifting feats, if that helps. stick out tongue

Aren't ALL of Hulk's feats achieved by strength, despite logic dictating otherwise?

How does he grab energy? He's super angry, so he can.

How does he punch time?

How does he resist teleportation?

Transmutation?

All done by strength.

Reality is just another barrier that is cracked by Popeye's strength.

Bentley
What's worse, that's Popeye holding back!

I'd change 'strength' to 'striking power' having thought on it, but you're right, in that its how Popeye does what he does.

Slightly off-topic question: does the burly guy with the beard who is Popeye's nemesis ( I don't know his name) ever show similarly outrageous strength feats in the Popeye-verse, or is it just him?

DarkSaint85
Pluto? He's usually stronger at base, until Popeye eats his spinach and then goes all out.

Bentley
What's this Blutocracy? I hope your mistype was because of some cellphone technical stupidity.

DarkSaint85
thumb up.

For some reason my phone thinks Pluto is a more probable arrangement of letters....

HaHa, Pluto...!

I dislike gag/parody characters in battle boards so Hulk 10/10

Hulk punches so hard that Donald Trump became president

Hulk punches so hard the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead

Hulk punches so hard the Undertaker lost at Wrestlemania 30

Hulk punches so hard multiple famous celebrities died last year

Hulk punches so hard Lionsgate actually decided to create a Power Rangers movie

Those are just a few things Hulk had done with his punches smokin'

Dareangel
If Hulk will punch so hard that we will finally get a new mortal kombat movie, i will turn into hulk fan.

riv6672
So no real answer then.

He punched so hard he reversed time.

MF DELPH
I actually think Popeye wins. Popeye could likely achieve any effect Hulk has on panel with a single punch whereas Hulk can't accomplish many of the things that Popeye can. And yes, Popeye's feats are via strength. The spinach is just the catalyst. Popeye hits so hard he bends reality to his will upon impact.

was it with a single punch? and breaking the time barrier is something done by many characters. altering the physical world with a punch is something else.

Yes, a single punch reversed time throughout Marvel Universe. Who has punched so hard time went backwards in a Universe?

well SBP, Superman 1 million while extremely depowered. punching the time barrier is different than altering physical reality without any plot device used to punch it. while punching time, everybody are using some kind of devise to alter the time. its not a big deal since kal kent did it while being so depowered to the point the metal man crew who are just metas posed a threat to him.

Who ever punched their woman hardest. That's the real debate. There's a case for both.

riv6672
Is there?
Dont recall Popeye ever hitting Olive, much as she played him and Bluto against each other.

wuleecat
Jeepers, Bluto smacking Popeye down to the thickness of a coin using just his chest? That's some crazy feat in itself.

More supplementary questions: is spinach universally strength-enhancing in the Popeye-verse (and have Bluto and Olive ever tried it? Wasn't there also a guy who used to eat tons of hamburgers and had a funny-looking nose, or am I confusing my cartoons?)

I think Sweepea once ate spinach and powered up; possibly Popeye's pappy too, iirc. So there may be a benefit to those genetically related to the Popster.

As for Whimpy, the hamburger guy, who'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today: nah, it didn't make him stronger. He just got in trouble trying to get burgers.

As for this thread... HHH: Hulk hits harder, but Popeye has more versatile punches.

Popeyes dad was even stronger than he was.

If Popeye ever hit Olive it probably had the result of causing her to simultaneously have an orgasm, become pregnant, and give birth. The kid most likely popped out already raised and ready to enter the workplace.

Popeye doesn't have time to raise kids, he punches reality itself and has it do it for him.
