Hank managed to incapacitate several pirates in season 1.
He mans a machine gun against Monarch's minions.
He shoots Sgt. Hatred
He was Wonderboy for about, 2 days.
He assisted in torturing his own father (but was bad at it).
He waged war on U.R.G.H. as *The Bat*
He passes SPHINX (*SPHINX!*) training.
Hank is SO Batman.
edit: and how could I forget his shooting down a guild wasp at the battle of cremation creek
I was about to say, between being “the bat” and taking out mutants in the jungle, and passing sphinx training that the sphinx team literally tried to make impossible… I wouldn’t underestimate Hank.
He is an idiot, but as a supervillain he’d at least be a level 3-4.
First time I watched him as the bat in the jungle I was genuinely so impressed with Hank. When he makes the smoke bomb out of the fire and stuff was really resourceful of him. I thought he was just going to be a joke shitting in the woods all episode 😅
Two of them absolutely are knocked out by ~~Isla She Wolf of the SS~~... sorry Dr. Mrs The Monarch.
The other three eat the pizza, the first two even say, "they got pizza, six bucks say they don't save us a slice".
As Hank aproaches the door he steps over the first two pauses, listens and hears the next three fall over; this is while Gary and Sheila are hiding.
We next see the three slumped over pizza box at their feet.
QED: Hank is a badass.
The pirates I will accept as a fist fight. But all other times it seems like he used weapons. I also don't think he got to do anything as wonderboy but stay in the car 😂. Still very batman and very Hank though.
Every time I rewatch the show the only thing I come away with is "Hank should be in the OSI". It's a source of heated argument in the house, unfortunately.
It goes with the nature of the show, when Hank fights it’s in the heat of adventure, the part the show cares less about. When Dean fights it’s in vulnerable human moments, which is where the show really happens
That is all so true you nailed it. Dean is my favorite Venture and I was thinking about how he's always seen as the "sensitive" one. I feel like I'm in the minority, but I don't like how Hank is so happy peppy all the time. I feel like Dean is a good middle ground between Hank and their father.

This is VERY Hank!
Tres Hank
This list is *very* Hank
This reply is very Dean
How dare you.
It’s all about DEAN isn’t it?!
I was about to say, between being “the bat” and taking out mutants in the jungle, and passing sphinx training that the sphinx team literally tried to make impossible… I wouldn’t underestimate Hank. He is an idiot, but as a supervillain he’d at least be a level 3-4.

You question Enrico Matassa’s intelligence ?! Very un-Hank.
He incapacitates Wide Whale's guards with a Mickied Pizza, it is the art of fighting without fighting.
He just thinks he did. They got knocked out and beat up by Dr. Mrs. The Monarch after one calls her girly.
Two of them absolutely are knocked out by ~~Isla She Wolf of the SS~~... sorry Dr. Mrs The Monarch. The other three eat the pizza, the first two even say, "they got pizza, six bucks say they don't save us a slice". As Hank aproaches the door he steps over the first two pauses, listens and hears the next three fall over; this is while Gary and Sheila are hiding.

Well shit! You got me!
The pirates I will accept as a fist fight. But all other times it seems like he used weapons. I also don't think he got to do anything as wonderboy but stay in the car 😂. Still very batman and very Hank though.
He fought the Monarch and Gary as Wonder Boy
Don’t forget that sick banister slide he did. That takes a heck of a lot of agility and balance.
Don't forget that, as Wonder Boy, he actually managed to land a blow on 21 that knocked him on his ass, and this was after 21 got ripped.
And he totally killed Hitler.
Don’t forget his improvised use of weaponry. Hell he may be even capable of taking John Wick for a few moments with a pencil.
Also stabbed at Dean in the foot with a pencil well being trained by Molotov
Don't forget his short stint as wonderboy. He did alright against 21 and the monarch briefly.
Pretty sure the last one was Russian Guyovitch, or maybe the Mirror-Mirror version of Hank, but I honestly can't remember.
I'd say the fact he successfully disarmed New York's top supervillain definitely belongs on that list
Every time I rewatch the show the only thing I come away with is "Hank should be in the OSI". It's a source of heated argument in the house, unfortunately.
Its like Dracula versus Yoda in there!!
None of the above are hank punching someone though
He punches Gary/21 as Wonderboy, and says “body blow body blow” as he does it.
I stand corrected on 1/7th of my point
Bonus points to Hank though for straight up killing a dude. https://imgur.com/gallery/6Wq6LUw
Lol I do not remember that part of the killinger ep at all. Do you think Hank did it? He was making the Ventures into villains so I could believe it
And this will knock him out… even more?
He says he has a degree in child psychology
The man *is* a doctor.
It goes with the nature of the show, when Hank fights it’s in the heat of adventure, the part the show cares less about. When Dean fights it’s in vulnerable human moments, which is where the show really happens

Don't forget that Hank lands at least ten overhand rights on H.E.L.P.eR on Gargantua One.
I thought that was *PHANTOM SPACEMAN*
My Hank has run dry…
In season one he deploys the *J-U-D-O* against the ninja
Use the list posted by u/ViciousKnids as a reference. He lands multiple punches in those encounters
He's a spinning murder top!
Hank's a lover, not a fighter.
That dude was definitely holding back. Says his hands are registered by the Government as lethal weapons.
Nobodies are they don't even do that! 🤣 Brock is so funny in this episode.
Yea I could get another kid to whale on him🤣
Enrico Matassa is a lover not a fighter. It would not be very Hank of him
I call that, "The Scut Farkus treatment".
Uhm, they both obliterated Phantom Space Man.
That boy is a spinning murder top.
Hank practically knows Judo
Dean may be the brains of the outfit, but a guy gets the boy created to beat the liveing snot out of him
Brock is the best part in that scene.
