It didn't seem overly impressive to me when Thor's been doing "mountain toppling " punches since back in the day, and has never even come close to the absurd strength feat Kal performed. Even if strength =/= punching power...
Yeah...It wasn't an attempt to demean the feat, it was me expressing that the text wasn't that special. Heaven forbid I feel anything other than awe or amazement right though? Good to know we have superman fans like you to enforce proper feelings. Sheesh.
a). Toppling mountains is a high feat for Thor, in terms of somewhat quantifiable strength showings. Not high-end, but high. The fact you treat it as "eh" for Superman indicates that either you're finally accepting that Superman is on another strength level entirely when compared to Thor, or that you're under the impression that 'toppling mountains' is 'meh' for top tiers. It's not.
This can be seen, just by looking at Thor's respect thread and his strength feats. Very few ar at or above that level.

And that's a respect thread. Taking every Thor comic ever into account, moving mountains very is up there.
b). What you did was paint a 'meh' picture for the feat, by chopping the most unimpressive part of the entire scene. "toppling mountains....punching so hard the effect is felt in the Earth's core and the Justice League satellite that is floating in Earth's upper atmosphere, also displaying powerlevels above his casual Earth pushing levels for 5 days without sun.."
And you're like:
"toppling mountains? meh"
facepalm
That's a very disingenuous way to take a scene.
