Who Would Win: A Fight Between The Incredible Hulk (2008) and Infinity War Thor with Stormbreaker

There is a common belief that the 2008 version of The Incredible Hulk is the strongest or the best live-action representation of the character. This argument ignores the fact that the same character is present in Avengers: Infinity War, where he faces off against a more formidable version of Infinity War Thor with Stormbreaker. Let's delve into the details and analyze the outcome of this hypothetical clash.

Thor Without Stormbreaker vs. 2008 Hulk

While many fans and critics believe that the 2008 version of the Hulk is overpowering, it's important to remember that he is essentially the same character as the Hulk we see in the Avengers series, just in a different era. The Hulk gets stronger the madder he gets, making him a formidable opponent. However, in a physical fight without his iconic hammer, Thor may struggle, as the Hulk is a creature of raw, instinctual power.

Thor with Stormbreaker vs. 2008 Hulk

When Thor wields his mighty storm-based weapon, Stormbreaker, the outcome proves to be one-sided. The strength and precision of Stormbreaker, made for the King of Asgard, make it a formidable opponent for any character. A single swing could easily chop off the Hulk's large head in a_thanos-style decapitation. In a clash of physical might, the inclusion of Stormbreaker ensures that Thor comes out on top.

Strength Comparison

In the Avengers: Infinity War, Infinity War Thor, even with the Odin Force and armor, is not invincible. His strength is demonstrated in feats such as nearly destroying the Eastern seaboard with a single step and beginning to tear up the Dark Dimension in a clash with Red She-Hulk. While he nearly beats Sentry before becoming the World Breaker, it is still a testament to his raw power.

The World Breaker Hulk

When comparing the World Breaker Hulk from the comics to the Hulk in the MCU, it's clear that the World Breaker Hulk is a different beast altogether. The World Breaker Hulk can nearly destroy the Eastern seaboard with a single step, begins to tear up the Dark Dimension, and beats Sentry in both MCU and comics. In the comics, the World Breaker Hulk is even more powerful, capable of holding together a planet larger than Earth while beating Thor into the ground despite the edge Thor had with the Odin Force.

In the absence of a World Breaker Hulk in the MCU, the closest version is the World Breaker Hulk from the comics, which leaves no doubt that Thor would not stand a chance. The World Breaker Hulk's levels of power are not a match for even a slightly enhanced and experienced Thor.

Conclusion

While the 2008 version of the Hulk is a powerful character, the Avatar of the Devourer of Worlds, the World Breaker Hulk, is an entirely different level of power. In the hypothetical scenario where Thor faces the 2008 Hulk, the outcome is clear: Infinity War Thor with Stormbreaker would win with ease. Without Stormbreaker, Thor may struggle, but with it, the fight would be no contest.
