    I've heard that the hulk died before.  Now does anyone know Who killed him, what caused him to die, and which character in Mavel UNIVERSE can kill him.

    Killed "for real", i don't think it ever happened, unless to serve some plot with a further twist (old trick) or in "what if" situation, like with Wolverine once.
    The only Hulk that really died and had his magazine down was Hulk 2099, but that's from another Marvel Universe.

    Many can kill him
    But only maybe as powerful as Galactus and above can with strength
    Because their limits would be truly higher than his

    Thor's strength maybe matches Hulk's... for a little while.... Just untill he get's pissed for real. I'm sure breaking his neck would be a task way beyond his level. But hey, what can i say, they didn't ask  me to write the story, they asked someone who was drunk...

    Professor X could easily kill him, but that isn't something he would do. The easy part is killing the Hulk, the hard part is keeping him dead.

    Hulk has had lots of temporary deaths but the only way to truly kill him is to instantly kill Banner and I do mean instant! The reason why is because you can have Banner get shot in the head but as Banner lays dying the Hulk will take over and keep Banner alive..

    Who killed Hulk? Did it ever happened?

    Thor cannot kill the Hulk, after a while Thor will get owned by the Hulk, have you seen the movie Hulk VS Thor written by Marvel, after a while Thor's hammer literally got knocked of his hand by Hulk due to his immense strength.

    I know that WWH have defeated most people (stalemate the best) quite easily, and groups such as X-Man and Avengers. In WWH, they never managed to kill the Hulk, I think Tony Stark used satellite missiles which direct some type of... wave to reverse the process of the Hulk, and they buried him underground afterwards.

    I thought he can't die, he even tried to suicide (which failed), Bruce Banner tried to suicide, not the Hulk.

    My only problem with this evidence is that WWH sucked. And I tend to dismiss bad writing from these types of discussions.

    @RandomThang: The idea was awesome. I was as pumped as anyone when they said the Hulk was coming back looking for a little revenge. At that point I was all ready to see Stark and Richards knocked down a peg or two and the hook they were using (that this Hulk was more dangerous cause he had Savage Hulk's power but with Banner's intelligence) had me itching to see what they'd do with him in the coming fights against other heroes.

    Imagine my disappointment when every time the Hulk was faced with someone who could defeat him, the only explanation given was, "well, now he's so angry that he can win this time".

    I read the whole thing, but after the first couple issues I'd given up on them doing anything remotely interesting with the situation and accepted it was basically "Act of God" for the Hulk. When they had the Hulk-hippies talking about people who'd been hurt in Stark and Co. fights with villains, I audibly groaned. You knew from the beginning what the twist would end up being, and them trying to make the Hulk's actions in any way sympathetic or justifiable was just sad.

    I have no problem with Hulk taking out people above his weight class; the same way I have no problem that Batman does the same thing on a regular basis. My problem is with HOW he took them out. The excuse that "he's just angrier than ever now" is lazy and unimaginative. There were no interesting or well-thought out battles; it was just Hulk steamrolling everyone cause the writers decided he could.

    Another story arc had a similar way of explaining the logistic errors in it. I believe it was, "It's magic. We don't HAVE to explain it."

    @TheCowman: It's actually not that bad, it's better than Superman suddenly gaining super fist will power and punches Lurther away when he's glowing with Kryptonite, if Hulk is going to be like Superman (popular and easy to make money with), making him extreme is good, better than every single ridiculous super power heroes out there.

    The "magic" type and I don't need to explain it, it's seen in most, so why would you bother with it, it's like Karate Kid apparently a human being, beating down a Kryptonian or Superman who is suppose to be weakened by Kryptonite, suddenly "ignores" it.

    Hulk's power is that his strength grows every time he gets angry, and it is unlimited, so you don't need to know "HOW" he took them down, as it is so clear.

    It's like "HOW" did Deadpool keeps surviving in extreme circumstances, it's because he's been "cursed" and he cannot die, so, accept it. This strength grows with anger thing, is not as extreme as so many many more out there.

    True.

    But I don't like those either. I love Wolverine, but I hate it whenever he's portrayed as some unbeatable, ultra-cool badass. I love Batman, but can't stand it when they write him as completely unflappable and elitist to other heroes. I thought Superman lifting a continent made of kryptonite was one of the dumbest things I'd ever seen.

    Just cause the Hulk isn't the only victim of this kind of thing doesn't make it any easier to swallow. I always like my ultra-powered heroes to be about even. It keeps things balanced and interesting. When a hero is given an instant win clause like the Hulk's "unlimited strength"; I lose interest immediately and can even start to dislike the character if it persists long enough.

    Cause the trouble is, the Hulk DOESN'T just have "unlimited strength". If all that happened was that he got stronger, that'd be fine, since other forms of attack could still be used against him. But it seems like he also gains the power to circumvent the laws of reality. Physical strength should not give you the ability to break someone's hands on the astral plane when it's already been established that that can't happen.

    But nope, the Hulk's SO strong now, that he can just do that for some reason. If it doesn't bother you, then fair enough. Personally I can't stand it; but that's a personal thing. I know some people DO like to feel that their favorite character is unstoppable, but I've never really been that way.

    he is marvels physical embodiment of strength, hulk was intended to be that big monster that needed to be taken down with tactics, brain and teamwork

    Which, again, is fine if that's what they do. With WWH though, we HAD the other heroes teaming up to stop him with tactics and brains and were treated to the Hulk steamrolling them for no other reason than the plot saying he could. I have no problem with Omega level threats that require a group to defeat. Dark Phoenix and Thanos are two obvious examples.

    But both of them were still defeated when the heroes teamed up to take them on. With WWH, all we got was "The Super-Badass Hulk Show, starring the Hulk". I like the Hulk. But not when he's written poorly and/or lazily.

    Ok , i understand that, but wwh wasn't poorly written, in fact, it was a great story,if hulk just easily beat everyone then would it be poorly written, but he struggled and in cases outsmarted people

    Eh, if you say so. I remember him pretty much straight duking it out with everybody and completely no-selling everything they'd try. I don't recall him outsmarting anyone, except maybe if you count getting close to Dr. Strange and crushing his hands.

    His astral form's NON-CORPOREAL HANDS. How's that make any kind of......

    Oh right, cause "he's NEVER been THIS angry before!!!"
