What Marvel Heroes can stand toe to toe with Superman?
This is pure strength and durability, amping allowed
Right now the List is very short
War Hulk
Thanos ( for his freakish durability)
Most Versions of thor (after classic)
Photon (genis)
Classic Drax (amping)
Juggernaut
Hyperion (Supreme Power) (im being VERY generous here)
Gladiator (after having tons of sex, making the game winning shot and getting a perfect score on the SAT)
Re: What Marvel Heroes can stand toe to toe with Superman?
With Juggernaut and Thanos on that list, I assume you're playing fast and loose with the definition of "hero." I'll include a couple individuals who aren't technically "heroes."
standing toe to toe with superman? I'll assume bloodlust is off, and since you just said strength/durability I'll assume speed isn't a factor.
Beta Ray Bill- essentially the same as Thor, minus the godblast (?).
Immortal Hercules- No strength limit, unlimited stamina, crazy high durability and fighting skills
Warlock- The techno-organic version. Pretty much immune to pure physical damage, can adapt to powers on the fly, infect and absorb other targets, create high level tech from scratch, mimic powers he's seen before...the potential of this character is crazy high.
Adam Warlock- his default powers (strength, speed, stamina, etc) are lower than superman's, but he can amp himself with cosmic energy
Silver Surfer- self explanatory. It's the surfer.
Graviton- would own Superman 6 ways to sunday
Classic Apocalypse- in pure strength and durability? sure.
The Aquarian- superman would probably end up with an aneurysm figuring out how to hurt this guy. He might eventually do it, but it would take some creativity.

Re: Re: What Marvel Heroes can stand toe to toe with Superman?
Adam Warlock would probably lose to Superman if it is really head-to-head, ie with both starting close to each other. He may take it with some time to strategise.
Classic Apoc? I thought that was simply Trickster's version of Apoc who jobbed less than the current one. Is there a difference?
Eh? I'm following your rules. No need to be so hostile... golly!
