Strong Guy lifts #1, tho doesnt get past #2.
Rogue lifts #1, tho doesnt get past #2.
Doc Samson could lift #1, 2, and maybe 3.
Colossus could lift #1, 2, 3, and maybe 4.
The Thing could lift #1, 2, 3, and maybe 4.
Sasquatch could lift #1, 2, 3, and maybe 4.
Abomination could lift #1, 2, 3, tho there's no way he's lifting #4.
Wonder Woman easily lifts them all.
Obviously this is all dependent on the writer, but Wonder Woman has consistently shown she can lift all of these objects
Abomination is generally illustrated, somewhere around the angry Hulk level. He has very few feats to his name, but IMO he could lift anything short of the aircraft carrier. (Hulk regularly lifts objects of this weight, when calm)
Original Sasquatch was somewhere around Abomination, and was able to prevent a large plane from taking off. He would therefore be able to lift everything except the aircraft carrier. Current Sasquatch is depicted somewhere around the Current Juggernauts strength. IMO marvel is going through a transitional period, of 'power level increase'. Characters are starting to perform more impressive feats. With this i mind it wouldn't be hard to believe Sasquatch lifting a 747.
Thing and colossus are always depicted around the same strength level. I recently read a comic where Thing was having difficulty lifting a blue whale (These weigh about 150 tons). Both are probably capable of over powering a Full size Sentinel, but this brings them close to their limits. It would be surprising for any writer to show them lifting a plane as large as a 747.
A recent one, i suspect. As i live in jersey the format of the comics is different, for example the comic in question had a spiderman issue on the back of it. Im currently back in oxford so it will be hard to find out.
well what weighs more, a house or a 747? cuz i remember in a fight with Power Man a long time back Classic Thing lifted up a house out of its supports and slammed it on Power Man, and he has only gotten stronger since then.
it was in marvel knights 4 a few issues ago when they fought Diablo....I think the main reason he had difficulty with it was due to the fact it was fighting back...he also didnt think it was alive; it was a statue and then Diablo animated it into a real whale.
Well it depends on what house. Im sure Buckingham Palace weighs a lot more than a 747. The average house is unlikely to, its abit ambigous to claim that he is stronger since he last fought powerman.
His bio admits that his strength has fluctuated greatly over the years...his states may reflect some kind of average or something. Or he could simply be a six because he isnt in the "unlimited strength" category like Hulk and Thor.
Thing is constantly evolving and constantly absorbing more radiation. He has brought this up on the mutliple occasions he's fought himself at earlier points in the time stream...usually kicking his own ass in just two or three moves. This is why his powers have manifested in the "spikey form" where he was exponentially stronger by being exposed to another cosmic storm. Or when Reed took a piece of his skin and placed in a time bubble where eons passed by every second, resulting in the fragment evolving into an omnipotent being in control of every atom in its structure throughout the whole time stream (FF vol3 #58-60).
I've seen Thing hold his own against Thor in an armwrestling match, which says a lot. Despite all of the handbook, personally, I think Ben is above the 100 ton mark. But hey, that's just my opinion.
It all depends on the writer...although the Thing hasnt had to throw a single punch in the last nearly ten issues, except against some small automated alien ships, he appears to be the classic class 85 Thing because he's very small. This is different from the monstrous heroes reborn Thing that dwarfed Thor and was nearly the same size as a Savage Hulk. The Lobdell Thing was also pretty big and had no problem lifting the steel and glass pyramid of the Louvre and pitching like a baseball through an interdimensional portal. He also penetrated Terminus' armor which requires 100ton+ strength on par with Hercules according to his directoy bio. Claremont showed the Thing take on the Avengers in their own mansion, although most of the fight was off panel; that Avenger's line up did contain Ironman, Wonderman, and Thor. He also overpowered Ironman's armor on another occasion with Claremont and flung a full sized kree version of Giantman by the hand. Nonetheless, the present series illustrates him the same size as a normal guy...although this run looks like its over.
Thing looks like he's going to be pretty tough in his own series.

I was just refering to the actual armor which the directory points out is highly durable and can only be petrated by a 100+ character. The cover shows Thing's fingers going right through the armor of the chest plate which was not made of moloids. But yea, Im not sure if moloid terminus should be considered weaker or not, he was still superhumanly strong and his destructive power was eminating from his staff...The F4 had the Surfer helping them in that fight.
Petroleum tankers will be added to the lift contest weighing in at 650,000 and just for the fun of it the Earth that weights earth 5.978,000,000,000,000,000,000
