I think supes is still stronger then cap by a small amount but its true. Supes is stronger by feats. BUt then again supes could be said to be stronger then thanos due to his billions of lifting feats. Just becasue someone dont have the feats dont mean he or she is not in the ball park.

Sup>cap in strength barely, unless going all out or sundipped.
Thanos>supes in strength period and he still dont have the lifting feats that supes does.

1. Superman
2. Captain Marvel
3. Wonder Woman

CM's strength is a notch below Superman's, but not to the point where Superman can easily overpower him. His physical attributes alone allow him to hang with Superman, regardless of the source of his powers. Granted, he is embued with magic, but generally speaking, his punches don't inflict "magic damage" on Superman. The Stamina of Atlas and Strength of Hercules puts him on roughly even footing with Superman BEFORE he decides to amp his fists with magical lightning or use the Shazam! ambush attack. It also doesn't hurt Supes that he technically gets stronger every day where as his peers remain at the same level constantly for the most part (a "clever" way for DC to keep Superman as strong as he needs to be 😉 )

I've always viewed CM as just a notch below Superman in terms of strength. Again, the difference between the two of them is so small that it doesn't really make a difference when they fight. CM has a ton of other attributes that, in combination with his strength, make him a formidable opponent for Clark.

In terms of strength, I think that WW and CM are just about equal. Billy is more durable than Diana, but she is faster and a lot more skilled. The only real support for saying that CM is stronger than her is using ABC logic, which is always flawed in my opinion. They've fought and stalemated and Clark has stated that their strength is comparable. That's good enough for me. When Superman refers to CM as his equal, I think durability plays a large role in that.

Question for CM fans, what are Billy's best speed feats?

As for a fight between CM and WW, I would give the slight majority to Diana. Unlike Clark, Billy doesn't have any decent combat skill. H2H exchanges would be in Diana's favor, which makes up for her lesser durability. The bracers would take care of most of the projectiles thrown. And now WW has lightning of her own.

And then we have the lasso. I'm awaiting some scans of Billy's speed feats before I delve into this.

And WW is stronger than DC Hercules. That's the way she was written. Hera wouldn't have it any other way! 😛

I've always thought that Supes was portrayed as the strongest, and although he lacks Supe's feats CM was regarded as an equal in strength, with some decent supporting evidence. WW was a little below them but makes up a lot by being a better fighter.

There have been varying opinions from writers. I think it was Grant Morrison during his JLA run that said CM is the only leaguer who can armwrestle Superman.
