    Just so everyone knows (how could they not know?) Bigby's "wolf form" is fucking huge. Not a normal sized wolf.

    And yeah, he could use the vorpal sword.

    This Hulk is fairly intelligent, right? He's not gonna get distracted fighting a bunch of monsters? Also, how does the Baxter Building help Cable and Ambrose, assuming they're the only ones able to get through the building's defenses and the ones looking for weapons?

    He has hands?

    He's also got a fair degree of superhuman abilities in the wolf and human form. Resilience and all of that.

    But could he use the sword in wolf form?

    The Hulk isn't a moron in this incarnation, but he's badly outclassed in the smarts department by the other three.

    So he either gets the sword, or is a wolf? Because wolves can't really carry swords.

    But normal Hulk might just be having too much fun fighting the monsters of Monster Island to be a real threat, while a smarter Hulk will at least be able to keep on task, which is all I wanted to establish.

    Shockingly, he can shift forms pretty much at will. He also has a bad habit of being a really clever, sneaky, underhanded plotter who frequently avoids direct confrontations and naked displays of power in favor of byzantine schemes that catch his oponents off guard.

    All this from a guy who can bring some serious whoop-ass to the table when he does finally choose to throw down.

    That didn't answer my question. When he turns into a wolf, he would have to drop the sword.

    Yes, of course. It's unlikely that'd he allow the sword to be used against him in that way though. More likely he'd stash it somewhere if he needed to go wolfy for tactical purposes.

    Even in human form, his senses are incredible, they are really almost Superman/Wonder Woman level sight, smell and hearing. He's almost empathic when he wants to be. Getting the drop on him would be impossible for these particular oponents.

    Oh, I wasn't implying that someone would use it against him, I'm just saying that he wouldn't be able to easily go back and forth.

    Yes, he's a werehuman, technically, meaning he has the standard werewolf weaknesses.

    And before you argue, Bigby himself has said silver will put him down.

    Actually, "were" means "man". So a werehuman would technically be a man-human, or just a male.

    Can anyone in this fight really take out the Hulk? I don't think so.

    As for the second advancer, I'm leaning toward Bigby or Ambrose. How much of a reality manipulator is Ambrose Chase?

    if I was the Hulk I would just punch Bigby's head off. This is not meant to start a debate, 'cause I'm pretty much gonna ignore what you guys say anyways.

    Hulk doesn't just posess superhuman strength and durability, he also posesses vast superhuman reflexes and speed. Easily greater than Bigby. And as far as fighting goes, Hulk is not stupid in the slightest.

    And basically yeah, even with the vorpal sword Bigby would have a really really hard time taking Hulk down, simply because he probably wouldn't be able to kill him right away, and you can be god damned sure of the fact that when Hulk notices that this dude has a sword that can cut through him like butter, he will avoid that little pigsticker.

    And come on, any altercation between Hulk and Bigby with Bigby in wolf form will end with Hulk wearing Bigby as a hat.

    Ambrose has fought worse things, probably, what with being a Planetary agent and all.

    So.

    Ambrose and Hulk whoo

    I really, really do hope that The Hulk spends all his time fighting on Monster Island. It would just be cool. Let the other three sort out who gets second between themselves.

    Alternatively, Bigby hatches a cunning plan that involves leading the monsters across the countryside, stopping all who oppose him.

    Before anyone tells me, I know that's probably not going to happen. It's not a real plan. It would just look cool. Like the Bee Plan from a round ago.

    In any case, I'm giving this to The Hulk, like any reasonable person should. For second, I'm wavering between Ambrose and Bigby. I hereby challenge supporters of both to come up with the single most badass moment for that character, so I might compare and contrast.*

    *This is most certainly not a ploy to get a chance to see more scans from Fables and Planetary. Not at all.

    Yes, except that this Hulk isn't a slobbering retard, but in fact the most recent incarnation of the Hulk who is about as smart as th average joe, and pretty much a genius when it comes to figuring out how to smash shit.

    But it doesn't change the fact that that's not the Hulk in this competition, just like the Rouge in this contest is the current version.
