@Illuminatus: What do you mean kratos wasn't incredibly strong in gow 3. He was able to resist being crushed by Cronos and atlas, which is comparable in size to atlas in the comics. Herc did this in the comics, and this is one of his most incredible feats of strength in his comic book history, just as much as pulling Manhattan. Kratos also ripped Helios's head of in Gow 3, and did a whole lot of other stuff, like rip undead legionaries in half, push Gaia's hand of a cliff easily, which definitely weighed tens if not a hundred of tonnes. Gow seems to hint at him being among the strongest of all the god's and demigods, all of whom have superhuman strength. And i ain't just making this up. Look at http://godofwar.wikia.com/wiki/Kratos to see his power's, and you can see the power's of the other god's there as well.
Also Kratos, being the god of war, is incredibly skilled in combat, and will show no hesitation to kill at the first opportunity given to him. He is definitely more skilled in combat than Herc in the comics, and as i said before Herc has no weapons. Kratos could just as easily rip out his soul with the claws of Hades or impale him with the blade of Olympus before Herc punches him, which is unlikely to K.O him.
