Eh, Superman, Atlas, Hulk, Thor, Hercules, any of them could really make a decent claim to being the strongest of the strong.Except that he was holding something up that would fall, as the Greek Gods would have made it fall without Atlas holding it up.
It's an outlandish feat, sure, but its still a feat.
This is to say that even if the sky was falling then it doesn't have to be falling at the same acceleration (thus force equation) as a material object.

If Atlas didn't hold it up, it would fall.
And besides, and let me emphasize this:
IT'S MAGIC
Y'know.

Your statement is utter stupidity.
Gases or not gravity exists and it has nothing to do with the weight of one gas versus another.
If I had 1 ton of feathers and 1 ton of bricks, which would be heavier to lift. The answer is the same assuming that they have the same density. Mass. Surface area. Etc.
Your lack of reasoning makes me glad that it is easy to spot a high school drop out a mile away.

You should consider some things first, then it's possible to apply math to it. You should try the following three things imho, it think it's worth further pursuing.
Possibility 1:
Atlas had to lift his Grandfather Uranos (the Sky) in order to prevent him from raping his Grandmother (Gaia), a moot point though since Kronos cut off his dick and he lost interest some thousands of years before Atlas started. Anyway, Gaia is as big as out Earth or maybe like Greece, they didn't believe earth is round IIRC 😉. Uranos had to have a similar size, maybe a little bigger. So Hercules/Atlas had to lift an floating Continent or Earth at best.
Possibility 2:
Atlas/Hercules had to seperate Earth from the rest of the Universe, which would be quite impressive, though then again, Earth is round and if he pushes in the north, the south will "touch down". He still wouldn't most likely lift the Sky or the Universe but rather push earth away with his legs (you always "lift the leighter weight" if you brace it, physics), now we know that the legs are stronger then arms, but anyway, he pushes earth away with his legs and "he stands on his head".
Possibility 3:
The Atmosphere is coming slowly down and Atlas/Hercules holds it in place before it collapses. This is impressive as you would have to figure how much our atmosphere weights but it shouldn't be as much as earth, right? Depends on the pollution and the ozonsphere.
Since, the Grandfather doesn't care or Earth is a part of the Univers and our Atmosphere does just fine by itself it proves that Zeus had to tell his Grandgradnfather to rape his Grandgrandmother or he had to let Earth fall toward the Universe or vice versa or he let's our atmosphere collapse, which makes Zeus an really big dick, sorry, a big ass, like Odin... Skyfathers in Marvel are assholes 🙂.
