As Bruce Wayne, he can buy Marvel from Disney and discontinue the production of Hulk's comics.

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmus.org 14 points 9 months ago

That makes me angry.

See what I did there?

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 19 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Loved the time Spider-Man defeated the Hulk by telling a joke, which made him revert back to Bruce Banner.

Batman can't do that, though.

[–] Pronell@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Maybe Batman could use calm, reasoned debate and bore the Hulk into reverting.

[–] TubeTalkerX@kbin.social 4 points 9 months ago

That scene would have been perfect if he'd taken his glove off.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

The Credible Hulk always cites his sources.

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 8 points 9 months ago

Well, he didn't actually complete it.

[–] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 16 points 9 months ago

Pays for Bruce Banner to have therapy and anger management to work through his PTSD and anger issues.

[–] Xariphon@kbin.social 16 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Hulk Repellent.

More seriously: prep time, massive amounts of sedatives, or a phone call to Superman to get him to deal with it instead.

See also, any time Batman has had to deal with similar DC villains: Doomsday, Darkseid, Bane, etc.

[–] discostjohn@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

Bane is nowhere near as strong as Doomsday, Darkseid, or the Hulk, but I get what you're saying

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

or a phone call to Superman to get him to deal with it instead

That would be convenient, if Batman hadn't killed Superman already.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Shoot him with a dart containing a massive dose of propranolol. Adrenaline cannot bind in Bruce Banner’s body, making him unable to trigger the transition to Hulk. Batman beats him up easily.

[–] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Well, movie Banner tried to kill himself with a gun and the Hulk spit it out so I don’t think a dart would have an effect. Unless the release of those chemicals and its spread is faster than the speed of a bullet then it’s probably useless.

Comics Hulk is a different story and depends on how he’s written because Hawkeye has killed the Hulk with a special arrow in Civil War II.

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 2 points 9 months ago

How easy is it to pierce his skin with a dart?

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Is that how it works for us? Wowsers

Crossfit montage!

[–] mods_are_assholes@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (3 children)

Batman lures the Hulk into a custom designed electromagnetic levitation cell. Hulk is purely physical, if he can't touch the walls or floor, he can't move and he can flail all he wants as he rotates helplessly in the middle of the EM chamber.

As long as it has power, Hulk is neutralized.

Edit: As @HessiaNerd mentions below, Hulk Thunderclap. I don't know if Hulk is immune to vacuum but if he is then that might counter thunderclap. If he's not immune to vacuum then Batman would not use this as you know, 'no killing'.

[–] wahming@monyet.cc 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Low pressure atmosphere to counter thunderclap

[–] discostjohn@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

Hulk can survive being in a vacuum, no problem

[–] CouncilOfFriends@slrpnk.net 9 points 9 months ago
  1. Don't make him angry
  2. If Hulk is already angry, light a lavender candle and play some calming music
[–] Lauchs@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

He'd probably cure him.

Or, pull the world war Hulk move and jettison him into space.

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmus.org 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hulk: HULK SMASH STUPID BATMAN FOR SENDING HULK TO SPACE!

[–] Lauchs@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I'd love to see Hulk grabbing, twirling and tossing Batman using his cape against him.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

That fight would last about 2 seconds of Hulk got ahold of him.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago
[–] bl4ckblooc@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

There was a comic where they were fighting, and Batman dropped a pellet of knockout gas then got Hulk winded so that he had to breathe in the gas.

He also has some suits that would help, like the Anti-Predator armour or Justice Buster armour.

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

mech bat suit or other vehicles, knockout gas

[–] Blackout@kbin.social 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hulk has balls right? A good swift kick in the balls should do it.

[–] m0darn@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago

I don't see what could possibly go wrong

[–] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 4 points 9 months ago

Telling the Hulk that the sun is getting real low and hold his hand.

[–] xia@links.hackliberty.org 3 points 9 months ago

Send him into orbit.

[–] ashok36@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Ammag radiation.

[–] droning_in_my_ears@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

He'd be controlled by a pro fgc player while the hulk is controlled by me.
