I just dont see his feats being that abundant yet and with the recent DCnU reboot.. Aquaman doesnt have the feats to compete.
Remembering them doesn't make them valid.
As I said, quantity will always make more of an impact than quantity imo.

For all I know AM is stronger (know next to nothing about Arthur) but as far as feats go..Like Parmaniac and Nietzschean been telling he either can or has replicated most of those feats. Throwing/catching buses or trucks, knocking class 100 on their asses, supporting collapsing building, while under water causing a huge warehouse to collapse and using a tank (not mini-tank but A tank) as a bludgeoning tool. As for punching Superboy that far Pete did simillar thing to Scorpion. And while Scorpion is no Superboy this is about weight, not strength.
What im saying is, if the feats you mentioned are Arthur's best then they're pretty close. Only thing that seems to be out of Pete's weightclass is lifting a city block. But I dont know context behind this feat. If Pete pulled it off it wouldnt be the first time he performed a (seemingly) class 100 feat.
Those are the ones I had handy; I'm trying not to post too many until I get the thread up.

I've found that Arthur is for the most part the same; he's shown as being genuinly tough rather than amazingly strong more often.

I already argued about this feat because on panel (art) it wasn't THAT big.
I disagree, but for fairness:
And here he is in the same issue ripping through an Atlantean ship:

I'm trying not to upload too much until the thread is ready, as I don't want to spoil it too much. The city-block one was underwater, but after yesterday I really don't see people giving it much credit, so I omitted it.
In all honesty, if people think Spider-Man is stronger, then fair enough. I just don't agree, nor am I thinking that I will.
