A lot of claims/comparisons are made about these two so I thought I would try and summarize the thoughts. Unless stated otherwise all of these are regarding Thor and Hercules on a purely physical level with no extra powers like Thor's storm abilities.

1. Thor and Hercules are both highly skilled unarmed fighters.

2. Both are highly skilled armed fighters. Both are very good with bludgeon weapons. Hercules is probable a bit better with some Greek weapons like a discus or a bow and arrow and Thor is probable better with a sword. (Seriously, how often is Thor seen with or noted to be good with a discus and the same for Hercules with a sword.) However, both are no doubt skilled to some degree with both just not ultimate masters of them.

3. Thor and Hercules are under normal circumstances physical equal in the strength department.

4. Thor and Hercules are overall equal in battle.

5. Hercules is SLIGHTLY more skilled with h2h due to inventing Pankration and fighting 99% of the time without a weapon.

6. Thor is SLIGHTLY more skilled with a war hammer/mace weapon due to fighting with Mjolnir 99% of the time.

7. Hercules h2h = Thor w/Mjolnir

8. Hercules w/Mace = Thor unarmed

9. Thor with his full energy powers is too much for Hercules.

thoughts?

1. Agreed.
 2. I'd say Hercules has more experience with more different kinds of weapons due to his various training and activities in wars. I think he's probably equal to Hawkeye in archery but hesistant to use it and it's been said that he's better than at least USAgent with the discus/shield.
3. Agreed.
4. Agreed.
5. I don't know if Herc is more skilled with h2h but it is one of his preferred methods in fighting, up close and personal. Thor tends to fight more at range.
6. I don't know about this either, Mjolnir is just a much more impressive weapon.
7. and 8. I dunno how you can say Hercules unarmed equals Thor with Mjolnir and yet Hercules with Adamantine Mace equals unarmed Thor. I don't think Hercules' mace really affects his fighting unless fighting something completely invulnerable where he'll need it. I'd say when fighting each other both tend to just smack each other so having a mace or Mjolnir. If Thor really needed to take out Hercules and he could refrain from taking the challenge as a matter of honor or something he could actually use Mjolnir well enough to take out Herc.
9. If Thor really needed to take out Herc and wasn't hindered by honor he could beat Hercules.

1. Yes

 2. Hercules Is Better 

 3. Hercules is Stronger Physically

 4. Without Pis i can see Hercules Beating Thor

 5. Hercules is  more skilled with h2h due to inventing Pankration and fighting 99% of the time without a weapon.

 6. No. but he is Way better in magic

 7. Hercules h2h => Thor w/Mjolnir

 8. Hercules w/Mace => Thor unarmed

 9. Lol no

 2. Hercules Is Better  

3. Hercules is Stronger Physically

Hercules Was Able to Knock Down Atum in Demogorge Form And Rip Adamantine Wall With Hit
He Withstood Magic of Sky father level Gods unharmed He was hit by thunderbolt of Zeus aimed for kill and survived without any serious injury 
He was hit by magic which was melting Adamantine on his forehead and was unharmed 
So i cant see Thor Harming him with Magic or winning physical fight

Why is Hercules better armed?  Thor has fought impressively with a sword and hammer and Hercules fights mostly unarmed.

What proof do you have?  All the comic comparisons and virtually all the handbooks portray the two as being equal.
    

Why do you disagree with Thor being better with a blundeon weapon.  As we previously established Hercules is better h2h due to fighting 99% of the time unarmed.  Since Thor fights 99% of the time armed why is he not to some degree better than Hercules in this field?
    

Today i posted picture of Rulk beating Thor and got like 8 replays saying that it was piss, leobforce, bad writing, wis and in recent issues Thor beat Rulk no one even thought that Rulk was depowered in "World War Hulks " because if thor loses it is pis pis pis or wis !

   

Hercules is fighting with weapons all the time he even has killed skyfather Level beings with Weapons

Yet Blow from Hercules can knock Atum off his feet and rip Golems made from adamantine and dent walls from the same material 

Thor is not better with blunt weapons he just has better weapon Mjolnir
   
Only reason people are saying that Hercules will lose to Thor is because Thor has more "powers"
It is not like they are going to harm Hercules or something it is just how overrated Thor is here
look at Thor vs Thread
 

"Thor wins "his enemy" is pure Piss !"
"Thor only lose to him because he was holding back !"
"pis pis pis pis pis"
"Thor one shots hulk"
"Hercules is no match for him"

lol this is getting old

thoughts?

I agree with all of this except:

2. Currently Hercules has been showing his skill using the Sword of Peleus, so he may possibly be a swordsman equal to or more skilled than Thor. I don't know.

3. Hercules has a slight edge over Thor in sheer physical strength. So Hercules is stronger than Thor. This is stated quite clearly in the original OHOTMU '83 (#5 and #11).

7. Thor with Mjolnir (and using to it's fullest potential) is superior to Hercules. Thor w/Mjolnir > Hercules.

8. Hercules with his mace is superior to Thor unarmed. Hercules > Thor unarmed

@seekquaze: I meant Thor using his hammer is superior to Hercules. It was a typo. Sorry for the confusion.

Sounds accurate. Though Thor's experience with Ragnarok have def improved his H2h

I think Thor is older than Herc by a decent amount. He only became the god of thunder after he received the hammer. I would say they are probably equal in terms of swordplay though Herc wins out in h2h and using a bow, not enough for a quick or easy win though.
