The different powers that a character uses in the comics are based on the writers and how they want the story to proceed. Logically a very powerful character like the Silver Surfer or Thor can easily defeat the Hulk in a variety of ways. As strong as the Hulk is he is no where near as fast as Surfer or Thor who both move at light speeds so he should not be able to land a blow on them but he does because that is what the writers want him to do.

That is the main problem with fans of Thor who say that he does have many different powers but the writers won't let him use them because the fight would be too easy and fast.

Take a look how Thor beat Thanos and Mangog using the Anti-Force blast, or how he pushed back Galactus, Surter, and Ego (all characters who are far above the Hulk in power) using the Godblast, or how when he went into Warrior Madness, he easily over powered the Hulk and Drax (who at the time had the Power Gem).

Thor has always shown holding back his powers because he doesn't want to kill anyone but when he doesn't hold back he can beat almost anyone as shown when he killed the Thing and the Hulk during the Reigning story line, and that was with one arm, one eye and without the Odin Force.

Lets face facts, the reason Hulk has the fighting record he does is because the writers want him to win because of popularity. No other reason.

As for all the powers he has, a character no longer has a power only if it is explained away in the comics, like how Thor no longer has the Odinforce or time travel abilities, and not only that but in the Database, these claims have to be back up by comic references (specific issues). Just because a character doesn't use their powers doesn't mean that they don't have it. Unfortunately that is up the writers.

On Storm, I was not aware that she had super strength or durability. Please send me the page you speak of, I would like to see it.
