From the Hulk's profile page on Wiki:

The Hulk possesses the potential for limitless physical strength depending directly on his emotional state, particularly his anger.[41] This has been reflected in the repeated comment, "The madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets." After probing, the entity Beyonder once claimed that the Hulk's potential strength had "no finite element inside."[42] His durability, regeneration, and endurance also increase in proportion to his temper.[43] Greg Pak described the Hulk shown during World War Hulk as having a level of physical power where "Hulk was stronger than any mortal—and most immortals—who ever walked the Earth."[44] The Hulk's level of strength is normally limited by Banner's subconscious influence. When Hulk allowed Jean Grey to psionically "shut Banner off", he reached a scale of power on which he managed to overpower and destroy the physical form of the villain Onslaught, at a time when it had reached a level with the fictional godlike entities, the Celestials.[45]

Now, I'm not exactly just discovering this. I've known this for years, and I imagine most people with even a casual interest in the Hulk probably already knew this too. But it's always bothered me. I'm sorry, but nearly infinite strength? Power matching the fricken Celestials? That's bullshit, dawg. The Hulk is a creation of science and should abide by the laws of physics goddamn it. And yes, that includes comic book physics.

Ya feel me?

[CHEEZMO™]

Superman.

[JCX]

No, I think Superman is much worse.

[Agent Cooper]

I feel ya.

[Escape Goat]

Hulk isn't a superhero.

[AceBandage]

Superman can't fucking die and he seems to constantly be changing what his powers can do.

[Maklershed]

Yeah OP I think he is. I heard he takes ketchup packets and napkins from McDonalds all the time.

[Poyunch]

How can Superman be cheap when you can walk outside your backyard and pick up a piece of Kryptonite?

[Slayven]

The Flash is much worse.

[FairyD]

Goku.

[ep85]

hmph.

[The Technomancer]

I read that the Hulk once shoved a continent. I'm sorry, but the mass ratio is just too ridiculous for me to accept.

[Eschaton]

I'll take Goku for 500, Alex.

[itwasTuesday]

And then you turn the page.

[Dali]

Can't Scarlet Witch like alter reality and has the even more powerful power of undefined, ambiguous... ummm.... powers. You can't get much more powerful than the random abilities a writer decides to pull out their ass.

[Oblivion]

hmph.

[enzo_gt]

Superman.

First post is wisest post.

[Ninja Scooter]

Batman would still kick his ass.

[Anth0ny]

Dark Phoenix. Play MVC3 and you'll agree!

goku

[Chamber]

The Green Lantern/Silver Surfer/Dr. Fate types are way cheesier. Their powers basically encompass everything.

[Slayven]

[Arnie]

That's like asking which shit smells the worst.

Superhero's by their very definition aren't meant to be equal or fair, and thus are pretty cheap. Even Batman with his vast wealth to invest in super gadgetry shit.

[Averon]

I wouldn't say so, op. The Hulk's been beaten plenty of time in a one-on-one fight despite him being mad. Hell, Zeus (newly resurrected) handed Hulk his ass very recently.

[DreD]

hmph.

[FairyD]

Scarlett is just too crazy. The fun of hulk is the precise fact that his strength gets stronger the more he gets pissed off.

[flem1]

Nah, it's Superman who is cheaper.

[Dali]

Except the color yellow!

Quasar > Green Lantern

His strength may be theoretically unlimited, but his ability to feel/generate/sustain rage is very much limited.

Anger is finite.

Yeah, think about that one.

[CHEEZMO™]

Also, Dr. Manhattan if you count him as one.

The guy is effectively God.

[itwasTuesday]

Wouldn't Proteus and Franklin Richard be up there with Scarlet Witch?

[Oblivion]

Nah, it's Superman who is cheaper.

What the hell?

edit:

[IG]http://i.imgur.com/FrBDV.jpg[/IMG] Yeah, think about that one.

Also too, what the HELL?

[Slayven]

Scartlet Witch is powerful but there are other mutants more powerful then her. Like Mad Jim Jaspers. Dude was a threat to the multiverse with his powers.

[Riposte]

The Hulk is the strongest there is, but only conditionally. Power-level doesn't really matter too much in comic books though. Even someone like The Sentry, who was being built-up as a god-level character with a dark side, was put down quite easily. (Gravely disappointing considering how great The Dark Reign storyline was.)

[Poyunch]

Squirrel Girl!

[The Technomancer]

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FrBDV.jpg[IMG] Yeah, think about that one.

...how...has Batman compensated for the stress?

inb4 "prep time"

[Escape Goat]

...how...has Batman compensated for the stress? inb4 "prep time"

Doesn't matter. Hes the goddamn Batman.

[ep85]

Jars are no match for hulk.

[TheKaeptain]

Firestorm and the Flash say hello.

[Slayven]

Wouldn't Proteus and Franklin Richard be up there with Scarlet Witch?

Franklin yes Proteus no. Franklin created a whole universe from scratch to save most of the marvel heroes. Proteus biggest feat is making Wolverine cry like a little girl.

[Dali]

Wouldn't Proteus and Franklin Richard be up there with Scarlet Witch?

Proteus was originally allergic to metal dude. His reality altering is cool and all, but you kind of drop a few rungs when you can be defeated by a roll of Reynold's Wrap.

[enzo_gt]

Dark Phoenix. Play MVC3 and you'll agree! goku

I raise you:

[Bay Maximus]

Professor X is pretty cheap as well.

[d[-_-]b]

Batman, why is he not dead...

[Pandaman]

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/TMpTf.jpg[IMG] Squirrel Girl!

aka: the anti-life, slayer of all that breathes.

[evilromero]

Wait, I thought Superman was only powerful on Earth? Isn't he just a regular dude by Krypton standards? I mean, General Zod has an equal chance of killing him, isn't that right?

[DiscoJer]

Threads like this make me glad I mostly read Richie Rich and Scrooge McDuck comics as a kid.

The only DC ones I read was Weird War Tales. Which should be a TV show or something.

[KingDizzi]

Goku.

I've never read comic books but having watched superhero movies and Wikipedia, the dragon all characters are all fucking ridiculous. Goku and Vegeta for example can destroy planets for fun and all kinds of shit, was there not a cross over with superman and Goku? As for mentioned with superman struggling to life a plane while Goku and Vegeta can destroy a planet, it's pretty clear they are pretty fucking cheap.

[Ezalc]

If we're naming heroes we don't like then Wolverine.

If we're naming heroes who are actually cheap then any that can bend time and space.

Also how is Batman cheap, do you know how much money prep time costs? *rimshot*

Supes doesn't struggle lifting a plane.
