In his second apperance (Uncanny X-men 121... it might have happened in 120 I can't be sure) he lifted an threw a jumbo jet a mile with ease, this is out of the Hulk starting strength class. The whole reason Sasquatch was created was to be the vessal of some mystic spirit (or something like that) and he was stronger then Hulk at the time.
srankmissingnin, do you even read other people's posts? I already mentioned that in Uncanny X-Men #120 Sasquatch was shown easily lifting and throwing a DC-10 plane and that should put him in the 100+ class. However, Hulk is still stronger. Get him angrier, he gets stronger.
And which second appearance are you talking about? He has appeared in many different X-men comics as well as comics from the Hulk, Wolverine, Avengers, Deadpool and of course the various versions of Alpha Flight.
And Sasquatch was not solely created to be a vessel of the Great Beast Tanaraq, it was an accident.
Walter Langkowski originally learned how Gamma Radiation had turned Banner into the Hulk. Langkowski tried to replicate the process with himself as the test subject. He thought he was successful because he discovered he had transformed into the 10 foot 2000 pound Sasquatch.
In truth the Gamma Radiation was not what had given Walter his powers. The power of the experiment breached a mystical barrier between earth and the Realm Of The Great Beasts. During the split-second dimensional breach, the essence of the Great Beast Tanaraq escaped, taking refuge inWalter Langkowski'sbody giving him the power of taking Tanaraq's form at will.
Things happened (a very convoluted story involving Walt's soul) but eventually Walt regained control of his body, faculties, and his ability to control his transformation into Sasquatch.
