re: Hulk from Avengers

Of course either character could win. There are contradictory results all over the comic books - mostly IMO as a result of certain writers liking some characters a lot more than others, but also because when two people fight you can get different results from fight to fight. These threads also make me wish for the ability to selectively remove certain posters from a thread because they are so upset about other people liking a different comic book universe or movie that they feel the need to enter those threads and stir shite up.

Anyway, Superman taking the Hulk to the Sun would be a winning move if it didn't take a ridiculously long time to get there (think about how long light takes to get to the Earth and how difficult it would be to repeatedly punt a Hulk there). I'm not sure that would destroy the Hulk but I think the DC comic book literature indicates that the Sun's relationship to Superman's power would make him both unharmed by being there and almost unlimited in his power when he's close).

FWIW, I find it really annoying that more people (comic book writers as well as fans) don't automatically understand the Sun's environment to be a more punishing location than the center of a nuclear blast. Do people really not understand the scale and power of a star compared to a relatively confined explosion? Do people still think the sun is a giant burning piece of charcoal or fiery horse that rides across the sky?
