It said its getting a mystic energy reading. Mystical beings can be just as strong as Hercules who's a mystical being himself. Hercules strength was used to create the Hercs, not his blasting power, lol. If Herc STRENGTH is the measurement of Hercs, his entire power output, then that Hulk withstood power output equivalent to 133 Hercules.
Are you in denial that there are mystical beings as strong as Hercules (who is mystical himself)? They also mentioned in the scan that you posted that 1 Herc is equivalent to Hercules at his older self.
No, Hulk was not used as the measuring stick - you are misunderstanding.
Put it this way - An explosion gives off heat, sound and light energy, right?
I invent a device that can detect sound energy. And measure it in....Black Canaries, lol, where 1 Black Canary is the amount of energy expended by Dinah Lance blah blah blah.
Later on, I say Hulk's thunderclap is equal to 1000 Canaries. Is that the total energy? No. I am only measuing the sound component of the T-Clap.
Yes - they are using a mystical energy detector, which detects mystical energy. And gives the units in Hercs. It's NOT just getting a mystic energy reading - its SOLE function is to detect MYSTICAL energy.
Therefore, simple logic dictates that....a Herc is a unit of mystical energy.

This is like using a sound detecting device (your microphone on your Samsung) and saying hey, it's measuring light!!!!
It's a tool that was built around Hercules strength. His older self is equal to Herc. Its said right there in the scan. 1 Herc equals one Hercules. You're mentioning Black Canary scream. If they used her scream as a measuring stick for power output, yes, we would go by that. If they used her strength as a measuring stick, then we would go by that. If they used Herc strength as a measuring stick, then we would go by that. I dont think you understand that both physical and mystical beings throughout the heart of monsters were being measured in Hercs. The only way you'll understand it is if it was Superman.
Its a tool built around the amount of energy expended by Herc in one blow.
Later clarified to be MYSTICAL energy.
It's like your phone's microphone detecting the sound energy expended by me punching someone at full strength. NOT total energy.
I mean, I am pretty strong - nearly Tyson levels (lmao - not really). But the microphone is only detecting the sound energy, and gives that energy in units of decibels.
Its Hercules STRENGTH, MAXIMUM POWER OUTPUT in one blow. Yes, in some cases it measured mystical beings but it was used to measure physical beings as well.
She explains it here. Object and ENTITIES, we measure it in Hercs...
the pandora box was measure off of THAT INSTANCE. That entire scene is about the Pandora box. You're a funny guy. Anyways, Hulk LUNGS endured the Pandora box... an artifact that was said to be the most POWERFUL artifact on the face of the planet. Not only did he do that. He fought a bird that had a large portion of Zeus power thrown into it and broke its neck. Non World Breaker Hulk.
Yes, but the writer and creator of the Herc, Greg Pak, has written that it's mystical, and mystical energy detecting units are needed to measure it.
Your argument is as silly as arguing that Wolverine doesn't have claws because he originally didn't have them, or that Superman can only leap tall buildings lmao.
We'll have these arguments in another four years time.
I am arguing it can be retconned into the max mystical energy given off by a punch.
Just like a punch can give concussive force, AND say sound energy (the sound of my fist hitting a face). So all I am measuring is the sound energy, which whilst is more powerful from say Tyson than me (as he's better/stronger etc at punching), isn't the total energy.
And my reasoning? Subsequent depictions of the Herc needs a MYSTICAL ENERGY DETECTION DEVICE, as built by the lady who coined the term Hercs.
Carv wants it to be pure physical energy, so that he's going to take Hercs greatest punching/strength feats, multiply by 133, and call it a day.
When all I'm saying is that a Herc only measures ONE component of Hercules's punch, similar to how a microphone only detects the sound component of a punch. So you can't just measure the noise of my punch, and equate it to how much I can lift.
Where did it say it NEEDS a mystical energy detector to measure Hercs? I dont think you understand that scene. There was a reason a MYSTICAL detector was sent. A of the beings Herc was fighting during that issue/s was mystical.
