The current Superman is quite a new character and as such his powers are still in flux. I doubt he'll end up with a "multi-planetary scale" power level.
But in principle there's nothing that prevents characters from different publishers to have vastly different power levels. For example, pre-crisis Superman certainly was billions and billions of times stronger than Thor.
What Thor did there, and what people are passing it as, is similar to me saying that Superman [and the new gods] is capable of blowing planets with his heat vision, or holding them in his hand, based on this scan, where he is in the New Gods world, interacting with the normal [main DCU] dimension:
First of all, the Serpent didn't encoil Earth in normal space, he went into the Void [notice its size in Asgard space - nowhere near continent, country or even city wide]:
In the subsequent showdown we, again, painfully see that the Serpent is nowhere near continent/Earth sized, relative to Thor [thus the bull being used as bait, lol]:
It is flat-out stated that space [and time] aren't the same in the Void [as if this wasn't ridiculously obvious anyway - when Thor fishes the goddamn Serpent in a boat using a bull from its supposed Earth-sized proportions]:
In the Void [as in the New Gods world] the normal limits and proportions of time/space don't apply. That's why, eventough the Serpent was small enough for Thor to stand face-to-face with him, and get fished out with a bull, he was capable of encoiling the Earth, and crushing it with his etheral form [as seen in the normal space/time] from the Void.
It's a non-feat.
This feat has been one of the most baffling, well kept lies in the history of KMC.

I dunno about multi, but he's had moon busting/planet moving strength for quite some time, years even, before the reboot. It just seems to me that he hasn't lost much.

Where are the Thor fans? These dudes are not only saying that Thor's strength is like a toddler in comparison to Supes, but one of his highest regarded feats is a complete myth! They're chumping y'all mang!!
Yes I'm instigating lol. It's a slow day at the office and I demand entertainment damnit!

It's a little bit of trolling, or perhaps closer to freeposting than anything probably... but he's not targetting anyone in particular, and not really doing much harm.

Yeah I'm BSing around. Mostly. But I am kind of taken aback by the lack of a proper response to some of the claims and challenges that Supes fans have been making in various threads lately. Because lets face it, at the end of the day the things being stated here with regards to Thor vis a vis Superman (factual or not) by some are far more confrontation inducing than anything I've said lol.

With this in dispute and the World Engine one unquantifiable, like Hercules' "lifting the heavens" crap, what does Thor have left?
The hollow skyscraper? The shared Asgard feat with BRB and their magic hammers? The Midgard Serpent's paw?
How does this compare to post Crisis Superman? We already seen DCNu Supes lift a planetary level weight. If he has any other lifting feats in this category, we can safely say he's leagues above Thor in terms of "lifting" strength.

IOW, you're arguing that current Superman is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 to 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 times stronger than Thor.
