Who do you think would win, Superman or Hulk?

Question

I think no doubt superman. The fight would not even be very long as well.

What people need to understand is that it isn't a competition between Marvel and DC characters. The whole point of DC is that most of their heroes are mythic and godlike. They're the best of what we could ever hope to be. They're the gods that champion earth and humanity. They inspire humanity to be more hopeful and realize we are all worth saving or we could be worth saving if we dared to be better. The heroes in the Marvel universe for the most part are more grounded with more human vulnerabilities. They're easier to identify with as humans and have more human flaws. The universe is more cynical and human driven. It's more 'realistic' as far as comic books are concerned.

Now to get to the question Superman would rip apart Hulk. Superman has been tossed through an exploding star and came out unscathed, he's held a black hole in his hand, and he's lifted up a book with infinite pages. Remember it isn't a competition because most DC stories aren't about how strong or weak the characters are. It isn't what drives their stories. It's about hope, indomitable will, and the spirit to inspire the reader. The writers of Superman have said he is always just strong enough to overcome any opponent. Superman stories aren't about his incredible power. It's about how no matter what happens humanity will always have a guardian angel to protect us. He will NOT fail because he loves us so much even though we don't always love him. That may sound corny to some but that is fucking awesome to me. Would you want someone with the power of Superman to have doubts especially about his morality?

Now Hulk is incredibly powerful in the Marvel universe make no mistake. His character isn't about his power either but instead it's about how the human spirit can drive change in the world. Bruce Banner can dominate the Hulk alter ego who is incredibly powerful and harness it as a force for good. Remember Marvel for the most part is more about human driven stories. He's a human being with an incredible curse that he's turned into a gift or at least as close to a gift as he can possibly get.

They're both incredibly powerful characters in their own right but to compare them in strength is a disservice to them. They exist in totally different universes and serve totally different purposes as characters. At the end of the day all comic book heroes inspire us to be better. Whether it's being inspired by our godlike defenders in DC or the very human driven tales of Marvel, they're still great

Hulk would win, no doubt, his strength grows with his rage.
PS - Kryptonite is not the only thing capable of hurting Superman, he is also weak against Red Solar radiation, Magic, Psychic powers (e. g mind control, telekinesis, possession etc). Superman can't use his X-ray vision through Lead. Superman can also exhaust his Solar energy. Of course, someone as strong as Superman (or even stronger) can hurt him by using just physical strength, and we all know Hulk's strength has no limits, it all depends on how much angry he is at the moment.

Superman is like when you're a kid and you pretend to be superheroes and you keep adding super powers and changing the rules every other minute. Every new superman movie, comic, or cartoon gives superman a new power, or increases his strength, speed, and other powers. I love DC but superman is my least favorite character because of this. Superman would win against the Hulk unless Hulk somehow got a chunk of krypotonite. (possibly from batman cause he always has kryptonite) Superman would either fight him hand to hand until somebody won, pick him and throw him into space (Can the hulk breathe in space?), or use his heat vision on him. I believe it was an episod of the justice league where an alternate version of superman used his heat vision to burn through Doomsday's skin (which can withstand a nuclear blast) and then through his skull to his brain and lobotomized him. He could probably do the same to Hulk.

Superman. He's stronger and has lifted up to 16 quintillion tons. Hulk can lift 100 tons when he's calm and even though there's no limit as to how strong he can get, he doesn't have feats anywhere as impressive as Superman. Not even in World Breaker mode.

And even if he can get that strong, Superman will take him out before that. He'll also never be able to keep up with Superman's speed, durability, and intelligence. This also happened in a crossover and Superman won.

Jayded1 · Answer

I own a comic book store so prepare to be ultra-nerded. The guy who wrote the Hulk comic for a number of years now currently writes Superman. So no one more fully understands their power level. He went on record while working for DC and writing Superman that Superman can not beat Hulk. Basically at the start of the fight Superman is much stronger, the problem is the Hulk heals faster then Wolverine, Superman could rip him in half and he still comes back. Superman has a limit on his strength, Hulk has no limit, the stronger Hulk needs to be the stronger he becomes till he beats his opponent. So basically after some fighting he would just crush Superman, I mean Doomsday can do and has done it and he is a weaker Hulk. Superman has stated in comics a number of times he isn't really super tough, he is just super strong. He gets hurt all the time. Wonder Woman is actually physically tougher then Superman.

CasaNorba · Answer

this would be a real fair fight!

but as much as I hate Superman and the whole DC universe I have to give him the victory. I mean The Hulk may pack a little more strength than Superman during fight as he is gonna get matter and matter as Superman continues to evade his attacks but we must not forget that Superman is a lot faster than Hulk.

Superman can make tornadoes if he flies around in circles nonstop. therefore if he creates a tornado around Hulk he can no doubt paralyze him and cut off his supply of oxygen

But really... batman would win ;)! Ok, ok... seriously though, superman would win. He has before in a marvel/do crossover anyway.

fuqthegovt · Answer

31yo asking such a question? Man-child alert. But really it depends on the writers, since both are fictional characters. As far as I know (not a huge comic book fan) the Hulk has no weakness so if he happens to be in a long epic battle (I did watch an animated series back in 1982) and comes across some kryptonite during it Superman is fucked.

JudgmentDay · Answer

Man, The Hulk couldn't even beat the fucking Juggernaut, what makes you think he would ever actually beat Kal-El.

John_Doesnt · Answer

All the Hulk needs is some kryptonite, which you can pick up at a University.

Superman will win. All that Superman has to do is go up into space and then fly downward towards the Hulk at Near light speed which will vaporize the Hulk on impact. Even if Superman missed by miles the Hulk will still be destroyed by the intense heat generationed when Superman hits the Earth's atmosphere. A near light speed impact will smash each air atom like a atom smasher. The temperature will be hundreds of millions of degrees.

Gotta go with Hulk. Superman tires and passes out a lot, Hulk just never stops til his rival is down or dead.

BlueMaze · Answer

Superman, especially if he can recharge in the sun.

takumii · Answer

Hulk is a lot stronger than Superman, but Superman is overpowered. He would at some time , pick that green shit up and fly into space. Dunno if he can survive in space. Probably not.

BrittBratt2416 · Answer

Obviously superman.. he's the strongest hero ever. He has no real weakness.

Hulk, he is the strongest there is, there are no limits on his strength, and as he gets angrier, he gets stronger.
