Nah man, it’s like cats. Hulk has been leaving this trail of radioactive piss and hormones that he can follow back home.
No wonder comics is the lowest form of literature.
Piling stupid shit on top of each other has been Marvel’s way of doing things since at least Avengers Dissasembled.
It’s really ‘whoever’s turn is the strongest there is!’
That fear thing looks terrible because its another stupid “Uberboss of the month” like Mikaboshi.
It’s better than “This guy is the strongest because…uhhh…well…because…Fuuuuuck…”
Marvel at least tries to explain batshit crazy events. It’s their job to do so.
In any case, it still makes no sense that Arthur is lower tier than any other human fighter because he is the most skilled fighter and survivor there is.
He does not have superhuman durability like Dante or Wolverine, he does not have superhuman strength, the only thing he has approaching superhuman is the fact that he can use some magic junk and can double jump (sometimes). However, he still manages regular trips through Hell and kicks Lucifer and/or Astaroth’s ass in addition to the asses of everybody else along the way, through skill and finesse.
Arguably, the fact that he can double jump innately (sometimes) means that he can defy all kinds of other physics, but that has never been demonstrated. In any case, the fact is he’d die in a single hit to even the weakest demons in Hell, but manages to overcome all of them largely with medieval weaponry that often isn’t magical. No other human character has to consistently demonstrate such fighting skill and adroitness while also surviving through an inhospitable environment for a sustained period of time in human form. That should put him above all the SF characters, Spencer, Taskmaster, Captain America, Dante, and Vergil.
He’d also straight up beat Ghost Rider.
What’s wrong with that?
ftfy. Are you really commenting on literature?
/trollin
Are you really asking?
I’ve read the first two pages of Twilight; comic books can never be that low; also worthy of note, Danielle Steele poetry.
No not serious, just thought it was funny
For the sake of this discussion, everything Also it means they always have to top themselves with the next one (like that shield breaking image linked. They need to show that the latest guy is the baddest of all, so they break their established rules)
It’s just a pet peeve, all these beings that are the meanest baddie ever… and nobody noticed? Isn’t that somebody like Dr. Strange’s entire job?
Read incredible hulk 135
I understand that, but personally speaking, that stuff gets me hype. I mean, outside of character development and story telling, I like reading Marvel to see people beat each other up. So when a guy comes in and says, “I’m the best in town,” I’m like “oh snap, this fight’s goin’ down!” Yeah, I’m easily entertained, but at the end of the day, that’s what I’m payin’ for. But I totally understand how linear that line of thinking is, but to be fair, it’s not like every new bad guy’s more powerful than the last. The new bad guy is more of the new current threat. They’re all pretty nasty.
I think the problem is that they feel the need to top themselves, its my impression that one of the few set rules was that that damn shield was unbreakable. But they just HAD to prove a point
PS, if you know gotta admit I’m curious, is that Phobos then? If its all a hallucination I’m gonna look like such a tool
I got you. And yeah, that stuff happens. It’s a cheap quick way to make the other guy bigger and badder than before. Just like how in Chaos War, Mikaboshi went around taking out the top dogs like Galactus and the super gods. Cheap thrills, but what can you do?
As for the current big baddie, no he’s not Phobos. Fear Itself is dealing with Thor, Odin, and some Asgardian prophecy coming to pass. Right now, Phobos is dead and reunited with his dad Ares in the Elysian Fields. Plus, with everything that happened in Chaos War, all the Greek gods are stayin’ as far away from Earth as possible. Hercules, though de-powered, is still doing what he can to defend Earth. Anyway, that guy who broke the shield is called the Serpent, and he’s claiming that he’s the “true All-Father,” as in he’s calling Odin a big fraud. Pretty much it’s that same “everything you know was a lie–rules are being broken” story telling. It’s been hinted that this Serpent fellow is Odin’s brother, so I’m interested in how everything’s going to play out.
world war hulk…
I now hate you.
LegendaryDJ, yeah I get ya. Done bitchin’ too, sorry
It’s cool though. I completely understand where you’re comin’ from, and it’s a legitimate complaint. As much as a sucker I am for cheap thrills, I’d much rather have something more thought out than “who’s the strongest guy now–okay, the next guy’s gonna be stronger.” Save that for DBZ.
So where’s the most recent list. I wanna continue talking about, if its no problem.
I’ve never heard of Cap’s shield being able to store and redirect energy. You’re basically saying Cap is wielding Sebastian Fucking Shaw as a shield.
