What is Marvel ?

To start, we have Carol Danvers who, as Captain Marvel, has quite a few powerful abilities, including Super Strength.

Willow Wilson and artist Adrian Alphona breaking new ground with their critically acclaimed Ms. Marvel.

Carol's super strength is actually part of the 50 to 70 tons category, but we think she deserves a MUCH higher ranking, which is why we put her at number nine. The reason for this is that her powers are drawn from a cosmic force which, in the Marvel Universe, usually means some form of unfathomable, nearly infinite power. But, more importantly, Carol has the power to absorb energy and add it to her own, which can skyrocket her strength to beyond 100+ tons

NAMOR

Namor is often forgotten about when it comes to casual Marvel fans, partially because he's not utilized very much these days, but more so because he has not been seen in the MCU.

Regardless, the Sub-Mariner is actually pretty powerful, and deserves some credit for being one of the strongest Marvel superheroes. That said, let's just lay out the disclaimer that the strength level we are about to reveal only applies to Namor while he is underwater.

Though it is only when he is in his element, Namor's full strength is worth mentioning, and we are going to count it in the top ten because of how often he actually gets to use his full strength.

The strength scale puts Namor at a weight limit of 75 pounds, but it also mentions that he is "unmatched" underwater, which we think is enough to put him at number 9.

This choice might surprise some readers, but coming in at number 8 is the X-Men's resident southern sweetheart, Rogue

Most fans know that Rogue's main power is to absorb the life force and/or powers of anyone she directly touches. However, if she touches a person long enough,

Most fans know that Rogue's main power is to absorb the life force and/or powers of anyone she directly touches. However, if she touches a person long enough,

she can absorb their powers permanently, which is exactly what happened with Wonder Man, whose super strength and flight are still part of her power set, just like Ms. Marvel was before him.

This left Rogue with the power to lift upwards of 100 tons, possibly beyond.

hough Wonder Man was released from her body, she still retained some of his powers, including his god-like strength.

The reason we put Rogue just above some of the other 100-ton-lifting heroes is that she can further increase her strength by temporarily absorbing the powers of those stronger than her. It might be a bit of a technicality, but we're counting it.

THE THING

As strong as comic power can be, it is no match for brute strength, something that Ben Grimm has in spades.

In fact, brute strength is kind of The Thing's whole... well... thing.

Classified by Nick Fury as power level 8, Thing's strength surpasses a good chunk of the Marvel Universe, not just because of the strength granted to him by his rock-like body, but also because he has trained to increase how much he can lift over the years.

Because of this, The Thing has pushed his weight limit to 100 tons and beyond, even shown being able to power a machine meant to move a planet. In fact, we could possibly rank The Thing higher since he is essentially immortal, and if he keeps up his training, then there would be no weight limit he couldn't surpass.

WONDER MAN

Rogue got her strength and flight from Wonder Man, and the real deal himself is actually much stronger than the power-absorbing mutant.

Wonder Man's powers come from ionic energy that is tied to and/or makes up his body, the nature of his powers isn't always clear. Regardless, this energy gives his body a massive power up beyond the capabilities of normal humans, one of the powers being, of course, super strength.

Wonder Man's strength allows him to lift 100 pounds or more, depending on who you ask.
