how is that possible?
the hulk can't fly, although he has a huge jump fly but no way he can jump all the way to the asteroid travel at light speed to destroy it.
this is fishy.
in DC, everything is sooo overuse like superman can hold the black hole, that is impossible.
by scientific theory, nothing can escape the black hole even light.
in dragon ball, it makes more senses.
goku can't destroy a planet with his own punch because his mass is tiny compare to the planet.
however by using qi (energy), it is possible to destroy a whole planet.
this theory can be test if we have like a 100xxxxx the power of the atomic bomb, which is possible to blow up the planet.

The Hulk has also been shown shattering an asteroid twice the size of Earth with a single punch, with the help of hydraulic catapults launching him into space at great speed
The Hulk's potential for strength is absolutely
limitless. And why should Marvel or DC have to follow any universal laws of nature? It's their disregards for these laws that make their characters superheroes. So what if he didn't reach light speed? I wouldn't be suprised if all he needed to do was wind up his fist while standing still to destroy the asteroid.
And I've said before, they depowered modern age Superman, so it's not like he can hold apart black holes anymore like Silver Age Superman, so it's possible for Goku to defeat that incarnation. By the way, I'm aware of the speed of the Instant Transmission (it's not called "instant" for nothing

) But Silver Age Superman surpasses the speed of light to freakin'
time travel, as well as visit different dimensions. Yeah, Goku can instant transmission himself to heaven and hell and the Supreme Kai's homeworld, but I don't think he can time travel with it.
Really, there are characters in the Marvel and DC universe that dwarf the powers of DBZ characters, namely the cosmic entities Such as Galactus, Eternity, Death, The Living Tribunal, The Beyonder, The Presence, The Word, the Spectre, The Endless, Lucifer Morningstar and Michael Demiurgos, Kismet...the list goes on. Characters like these have the power to manipulate reality to their will, and judge and decide the very workings of the universe. Hell, Galactus, Death, and Eternity represent abstract concepts of the universe brought into physical form. How the hell do you kill something like that, unless you were a cosmic entity yourself? And as I recall, the Supreme Kais (essentially the cosmic entities of the DBZ universe) were weaker than Goku and Vegeta.
By the way, Boo is technically the strongest in the DBZ universe, considering he was a match for SS 3 Goku, and yet he never ran out of energy, whereas Goku did during their final battle, thus prompting the use of a Spirit Bomb.
