    Hey, if Hulk is fucking strongest there is, maybe we should just stop the fucking tournament right now.

    Didn't the Illuminati trick Hulk into a tiny spaceship and blow him off into space? Oh, that's right, they did. Can't THOR beat Hulk in terms of brute strength? Oh, yes, he can. But obviously silly J'onn will just prance around in tights and lose.

    Make no mistake, I love the Hulk. He's great. He's the HULK! But the bias for him is clearly showing here. Yes, he's strong and totally kickass awesome. but so is Martian Manhunter. Calling his powers retarded is... well, retarded. What's Hulk's power? Oh, he gets big and mad and green and invulnerable and smashes shit. Whoo.

    Just so you know, Thor is not as strong as hulk.

    Thor is not strongest there is.

    Thor did not crack onslaught's armor in half by hitting him hard enough to create an explosion the size of a nuke or something.

    Okay... so, I broke my own vow and voted. Because if there is one thing I hate more then Martian Manhunter, it's intellectual dishonesty...

    I have to admit that I generally just vote for whoever's had the most badass moments, not always who's the strongest.

    But it's very hard to beat Hulk's strongest there is moment, although Spectre-x is telling me now about some of the stuff J'onn did in Morrison's JLA.

    I think everyone is tired of the overpowered characters and their fanboy support group constantly screaming how "you can't beat him/her because (some ridiculous power here) beats anything!"

    In my mind the Supermans and Uncle Sam's and Bigby's with vorpal sword shouldn't have been in the tourny to start with. But since they are lets not jump down one another's throat simply because we find ways not to vote for them.

    Uncle Sam? Didn't matter anyways, as hardly anyone voted for him. He should have at least made it to the third round. But hey..whats done is done.

    That's the thing... and the reason Hulk lost for me... he is the absolute strongest... but Martian Manhunter is the absolute most versitile... and come on, you don't even need to watch a video of Hulk to understand what his essential tactics are going to be. He's a touch transparent.

    I really do understand the need to find ways for your heroes to win, especially in these over-powered matches... but, I said it before... how on earth do you defeat someone who: can fly, move at close to the speed of light, turn into any substance, become insubstantial, become invisible, is a high powered psychic, and can turn into a giant, hulk eating snake?

    I mean... come on.

    Yeah, I don't think some of these guys should have been in the tournament, but they were allowed in so now you gotta deal with the inevitable. I wasn't around at the nominations so I don't know how they slipped through.

    Whoa whoa whoa, I can go along with J'onn being able to beat the Hulk, he's versitile enough that it would work, but you're being ridiculous if you say J'onn is tougher then the Hulk. J'onn beating Hulk involves strategy and guile, not brute force.

    The limitlessly powerful Hulk is the one completely unleashed from his human reasoning and all that jazz. It's why Gladiator Hulk was chosen - a pure Hulk would be totally and utterly unbeatable.

    I'd say that Hulk has a slight edge on J'onn with brute force in this situation. I see Hulk around a thinking Doomsday-level here (versus mindless Doomsday), so he'd be able to put a pounding on J'onn but would likely get as good as he gives. Also, it's doubtful that J'onn would fall from a couple of Hulk punches - he's taken far worse before and kept on tickin'.

    The power that controls his magic thunderbolt comes from Zeus, the Greek God with power over thunder and lightning. Tell my why its implausible for the Norse god of lightning to not be able to exploit that as a weakness.

    Yeah, but that was in the Marvel vs. DC thing and since those fights were voted on by fans we have not been using it as reference.

    So the outcome from that fight does not really count. But the same strategy could be used.

    Odin beats Thor. Always. Odin is more powerful than Thor. And so is Zeus. By a very large margin.

    And the DC gods are generally more powerful and god-like than the Marvel gods.

    And it doesn't matter anyway because Marvel now has compelte control over his own lightning anyway.

    So no, Thor can't mess with it.

    The transformation that brings out Marvel is powered by magic lightning. Which im willing to say that Thor would know about...being a god and all.

    The Silver Surfer comparison is way off bat. Marvel is no where near that beyond Thor in terms of power and neither is the source of that power. Enough of this exaggerating your pick so he wins bullshit.

    Zeus is above Thor in terms of total power because he is the king of the Greek gods. So in terms of toal power his is above him, however, they both control lightning. On that level they are the same.

    Wikkipedia says that Marvel transforms with a bolt of magic lightning. Im going to go with what they say over you as you tend to exaggerate your chosen pick for a fight.

    I agree that Marvel can have control over his lightning. But that power is overridden when in a fight with the god of lightning.

    So as I stated before, the Silver Surfer comparison is bogus.

    Yea, Zeus isn't sitting around on some cloud just waiting for people to shout 'SHAZAM!' so he can zap them.


    And while Zeus might be a more powerful god in other areas, I would say that in the realm of lightning he's no more powerful than Thor. God of lightning is god of lightning.


    Spectre, a couple of your posts on this page are the sort where you ought to consider, then maybe not hit 'Submit' on. You're now basically just saying we should scrap the rest of the fight and crown Marvel winner.
