I have a huge issue with the hulk holding back thing. He gets stronger as he rages but he has been stated to hold back. Makes absolutely no sense. It's either one or the other. How can his anger fuel his rage making him the strongest there is yet he still is holding back?
Are you crazy? Firestorm and Light are ****ing flying straight at him.
They're pretty much baseline human if they don't use their powers.
I agree that Adam wins this in a landslide, but his fight against the society was an absolute joke. Instead of taking the time to depict something resembling a proper fight yoy have 30 heroes dogpiling him.
We are referring to WWH (not any other incarnation). That specific version was later stated to have control over his power (without having to get more angry).
WW Hulk is way too much. Adam is brutal in dc but come on Hulk is built to beat people up. Adam is nowhere near as strong, is not level headed, and his durability is a joke compared to the Hulk’s.

hulk wins or at least a split. i really hate this overrated version of adam. implications have always been clear to me--heroes were pulling punches. we are told he's not the strongest or fastest. he's vicious. this hulk was NOT pulling punches and would absolutely match adam in viciousness. in a straight slugfest--which given their mindsets is what this would be most likely--hulk wins. if adam collects himself and fights smart he'd get wins, and it's probably a split.

He fought a "holding back" team including almost every hero in DC with Thunderbolt and they couldn't put him down. I imagine they jumped in and were throwing careful attacks - like the Z-Fighters did to avoid breaking a punching machine - and then lept away.
Also the only one there that was stronger than him off the top of my head is Thunderbolt. There's a lot of emphasis on the statement and not a lot put on who actually would be considered stronger.
I don't recall them saying that anger was no longer relevant, just that this version had a very high baseline of anger and strength. Being an intelligent version of the Hulk, he could also hold back despite still being angry and strong. But I think as we saw at the end of WWH, he could still get angrier and stronger.
I was always curious who the 'stronger' one is, compared to him. It clearly implies physical strength (since it was talking about strength, speed and 'power' separately), but...I just don't see it. I'd assume Power Girl, due to this scene written by Geoff Johns: http://i.imgur.com/LFMI11F.jpg
But, looking at their confrontations, it's impossible. Adam clearly looks stronger.
I think it's talking about Martian Manhunter.. [the writer of that issue is John Ostrander, who wrote him extensively].
So a good assumption of what was implied is that Jay is faster, J'onn stronger, and Thunderbolt more powerful.
