10 Most Ridiculous Things The Hulk Has Survived

7. Shot Point Blank By Havok - Incredible Hulk #391

Immortal Hulk
Marvel Comics

Cyclops is one of the most powerful mutants in the Marvel universe in terms of sheer raw power. In fact one of his only competition for that title is his own brother, Alex, better known as Havok.

Havok's whole deal is absorbing cosmic energy and converting it into raw destructive power. The worst part is that he has much better control over it than his brother does, since he was never in the car accident that took away Scott's ability to control his power. Meaning that he can be far more creative with his output of power. Especially when fighting someone like The Hulk.

Obviously, "converts cosmic energy into destructive energy blasts" translates for most people into "get the f%$k out of the way right now". But The Hulk is not most people, so when he and Havok came to blows, he decided to just tank a full power blast from Havok point blank.

Naturally things do not go well for anyone in that general area, but of course The Hulk survived. Sure it took him a sec to get back on his feet, but that's a lot better state than literally anyone else would be in, were they in his place.
