Hulk can't breathe underwater, and soothing ocean sounds will calm the savage beast back into Banner form.

Noah puts the Hulk to shame. I don't intend to offend with this, honestly.

And current Hulk doesn't turn back in to Banner. And spent the last issue of Incredible beating up Gamma mutant sharks underwater.

The same thing that keeps Batman, Superman, and Flash from all being Mary Sues (nothing?) Anyway, Hulk routinely beats up Submariner, who has always been considered far more badass than Aquaman, so Hulk wins. While DC has done it's best to save Aquaman's rep from Super Friends, Aquaman is just out of his league here...much like Spiderman vs. Superman or Cyborg (Titan hero) vs. Silver Surfer.

honestly, the one good thing that can come out of universe reboots is that they can let you scale back on certain heroes powers. There's a certain logic in the storytelling behind a character continuing to push themselves beyond their limits and overcome their weaknesses, however when you have characters whose adventures don't end with the writer, the only things that can happen is for those characters to get more and more overpowered, or inexplicably nerfed. When you have your characters continually getting stronger, the only logical conclusion is that they become Mary Sues. And that's what happens to a lot of mainstream characters.

When he flips shit, there is always something that comes along to bring him down.

I once heard he lifted Mjolnir because he was stronger then the enchantments.

Hulk has well, what exactly? Is he just the most awesomest hero ever? Bah, Hulk still has "I turn into Bruce Banner at bad times" weakness. It's just not exploited much these days. The other heroes bs their way through their weaknesses too. Superman: "Oh no, kryptonite...I'm so weak!" *proceeds to knock Metallo through 58 buildings* "Whew, good thing the kryptonite didn't have time to affect me." Flash: "If I use my speed too much, I'll join the Speed Force...and become pure Speed Force...which just means I'll be 88 billion times faster and more ungodly. Gotta be careful...I'll use my speed to disperse through walls...run over water...travel faster than light...travel faster than thought...travel faster than time...travel faster than faster than time...yeah...any second now I'll be over whelmed by the speed force...any moment now..." Batman: *Gets shot 8 billion times in the chin. Walks over to thug and knocks him out.* Robin: Huh, I saw you get shot, Batman! How are you still alive? ? Batman: What, are you stupid??? Are you retarded or something? I'M THE GODDAMN BATMAN!!!!!! The writers ignore anything and everything that even slightly inconviences me! Robin: But there has to be a story reason that you could just ignore bullets... Batman: Fine, I'm wearing adamantium make up, happy now? Robin: No, that still doesn't make any sense...this is all so stupid...I don't understa... *gets brutally backhanded and knocked unconscious by Batman* Batman: Shut up, Robin, you're dumb and useless!!!!!

Incorrect. Currently Hulk and Banner are separated. Hulk found a life of peace, until the government came looking for him because Banner went ape shit trying to recreate the Hulk in himself. So Hulk is the hero, Banner the villain.
