*NiceJobFixingItVillain: Lex Luthor’s determination to be the one to kill Superman ultimately backfires. While Hulk and Superman are fighting, Luthor uses Banner’s Gamma Gun to try and kill Hulk (obviously unconcerned about the risk to Superman in the process), but without Banner to configure it properly Hulk recognises that the weapon could kill everyone in a hundred-mile radius, prompting the two to stop their fight so that they can work together to destroy the weapon.

!!''The Incredible Hulk vs. Superman'' provides examples of:

* GeniusBruiser: The Hulk quickly adapts to the fact that Superman is a) invulnerable and b) can fly, and uses various tactics that don't involve brute strength (such as spitting cactus needles at supersonic speed to bring him down.)
* InsultOfEndearment: The Hulk has "Cape Man" for Superman.
* LightningBruiser: Superman attempts to grapple the Hulk to calm him down, only to find himself almost instantly flung into space, causing Supes to remark, "How can someone that big be so ''fast''?"
* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d when Lois Lane asks how the Avengers can possibly call themselves "Earth's mightiest heroes" when Superman has never joined their ranks.
* TranquilFury: Superman stonily tells Luthor he understands ''why'' Hulk gets so pissed off all the time while keeping his cool.
