For me, the coolest image was when he knocked the Abomination's left eye clean out of his head.

Alright guys, let's get rid of this 85 tons - 100 tons crap. For example...Sasquatch is supposed to be able to lift 70 tons and if this were true then he would only be able to lift an M1 Abrams tank, but in The Incredible Hulk Annual #8 Sasquatch is shown lifting a fully loaded destroyer battleship out of the water long enough for it to be repaired, and a fully loaded battleship weighs 120,000 tons.
At any rate, The Hulk holding up that mountain range is tops on my list.

Well, what's one person's crap is the parameters of another person's universe. It's not quite as ludicrous for Sasquatch to lift a 120 ton battleship if his upper limit is around 70 tons (per http://www.marveldirectory.com/indiv.../sasquatch.htm) than Hulk's pressing 150 billion tons.

Sorry, I know it's comics and at the end of the day it's not going to impact my relationship with my wife or my ability to pay my mortgage, but not even the Hulk should be able to do that. Just plain bad writing.

A "modern" Canadian destroyer is only about 5000 tons. Since the ship was still partly in the water, Sasquatch only needed to lift part of it onto the shore.

Sasquatch is a really bad example when it comes to strength as during his first appearances he was shown to be doing some stunts that were very "Hulk-like", such as the Destroyer or throwing around DC-10s. In later appearances, one of the Infinity Crusade
issues he was "nowhere near as strong as the Thing".

Ugh. I used to enjoy this character, much like Wolverine. Now they are gods disguised as heroes. Damn, there are times when I don't even know if Thor is as strong as these guys.

I miss the days when a Thing-Hulk fight carried substance and Wolverine took an issue or two to fully heal from massive or critical damage. Thanks.

Amen to that brother!

Cool, I never read the older Hulk comics.

150 billion tons!
