    Prime, certainly. He's an amped up version of that Superman.

    Everyone but Thor I'm guessing.

    Edit: cross WB Hulk off list outside of outside of dark dimension and wishing well magic.

    There is a difference between busting a planet by punching it and busting one as a side effect of leaping off it and Gladiator doesnt really have the kind of feats for the latter , even setting aside the "Superman was on the dregs of his power" thing here

    Although narratively Prime was a Pre Crisis Superman, by feats and actual events he was all over the place

    His strength, though is pretty salutary I guess, even if (quite) far from the heights of Pre Crisis Superman

    Considering the planet in question appears to be much smaller than even our Moon, everyone listed could replicate it except for maybe Gladiator and Thor and in Thors case mostly because he isn't a character known for having much force in his jumping, but he could crack that planet any other way easily.

    Thanos could crack it with a single step let alone a jump and so would WBH, in fact they could do it to planets around Earth size.

    What are you basing your size estimates off of?

    Likely...not outside of wishing well magic for Hulk. So, not really.

    Why not Gladiator?

    The crater left after Forger slammed him into the ground, that was seen from far away space and up close that didn't look like it was more than maybe 5-6 meters in diameter.

    What does wishing well magic have to do with it? When did Hulk wish to bust a planet?

    Because he doesn't have the feats to suggest he can do something like that, the character is wildly inconsistent and has been rather underwhelming in quite some time.

    Given your standards for other characters, that he punched up a planet and has done things recently like physically overpower Jane Thor would seem to stand him within your requirements for this just fine.

    For the record, I don't think Gladiator could do it, just that buddy's standards should mean he could, were he to be consistent with them.

    edit: annd he banned, nevermind.

    The size of the planet makes no sense as you put. It was specifically designed to trap hundreds of Supermen due to its heavy gravity which trapped them.

    Sorry for the late reply. I dunno what my standards are, but Gladiator 4-shotting a dead world and choking out Jane Thor(he didn't physically overpower her, he just blitzed her while she was distracted and even if he did i dunno what that has to do with busting a planet), doesn't really meet my requirements for having powerful enough legs to destroy a planet by jumping, unless we severely downplay the size of the planet.

    The gravity is not what trapped them, Superman literally lost the ability to fly, so every time he jumped he would fall back, cause he couldn't jump far enough.

    In order to choke someone out in the manner he did (I think he was just straight grabbing her throat from the front?) you need to be stronger then they are. Otherwise it would be extremely easy to break that kind of grip.

    A weaker person can choke a stronger person for sure, but generally only with an actual technique and an advantageous position.
