Top 3 Marvel Characters Stronger Than Hulk
Hulk has been regarded as one of the strongest characters in the Marvel universe for years now. He has god level strength which increases as his rage grows which makes him one of the most fearsome in the universe. However, there are still some Marvel characters against whom The Hulk does not stand a chance. Here are the top 3 amongst them.
The God of Mischief’s plan blows up in his face, with Hulk taking a severe beating. It’s such an embarrassing moment for the hero that he refuses to come out for the rest of Infinity War, forcing his alter-ego, Bruce Banner, to merge with him. Thanos may lose the war, but he certainly wins his first battle with the Hulk.
Nevertheless, Thor's track record against the Hulk illustrates the same dilemma faced by every other Marvel titan. Thor has scored numerous victories and stalemates throughout the decades, and he's more than capable of knocking out a baseline Savage Hulk, either with or without Mjolnir. However, in events like World War Hulk and Fear Itself, Thor's innate Asgardian strength is less relevant as the Hulk approaches his upper levels of strength. Once Hulk has grown angry enough, Thor needs to resort to strategies other than mere punches.
Both Hulk and Sentry are beings of potentially limitless power constrained by deeply damaged human psyches. Sentry's effectiveness fluctuates according to his mental state. This creates a remarkable inversion of the Hulk's own psychology. Bruce Banner becomes stronger as his emotions intensify, while Robert Reynolds grows more volatile. If Sentry uses the power required to defeat or kill the Hulk effortlessly, Robert Reynolds has to pay the price for it, and the Void is bound to take the Hulk's place as a danger to the world.
Thanos
The only way to kick off this list is to highlight the character who haunts the Hulk’s nightmares. At the start of Avengers: Infinity War, Thanos and his Black Order board the Asgardian ship in search of the Space Stone. Rather than hand it over, Loki sics his former sparring partner on the Mad Titan, hoping to end the villain’s quest then and there.The God of Mischief’s plan blows up in his face, with Hulk taking a severe beating.

Thor
Thor has historically been the hero most consistently portrayed as the the Hulk's equal, largely because Thor usually happens to be present when the Green Goliath loses control. Thor combines his naturally immense Asgardian power with magical weaponry, weather manipulation, energy projection, and thousands of years of combat experience. Multiple battles across Journey into Mystery, The Avengers, and The Incredible Hulk have established a recurring pattern. Thor can match the Hulk physically for extended periods with the help of Mjolnir and the power of the storms, but he has learned that containing or outmaneuvering Bruce Banner's alter ego is a much more effective strategy.Nevertheless, Thor's track record against the Hulk illustrates the same dilemma faced by every other Marvel titan.

Sentry
Sentry may be the only major Marvel hero whose upper limits are portrayed as being as ambiguous as the Hulk's. After all, Robert Reynolds suffers the same problem as the Hulk, possessing the power of millions of exploding suns, yet not being able to control it without awakening dark impulses and endangering everyone around him. Sentry's most famous confrontation with the Hulk takes place in World War Hulk, where their massive power output leads them to cancel each other out and revert to their regular human selves.Both Hulk and Sentry are beings of potentially limitless power constrained by deeply damaged human psyches.
