Ergo, if Superman, in is original appearance, is "more powerful than a locomotive", then Superman, being the benchmark for other heroes and villains, has a "normal" bench-press limit of 250 tons. Sun dip? Depending upon the star, with Earth's Sun doubling his strength, while a White star triples. And, since Doomsday is the equivalent of Krypton's "Grey Hulk", he should be treated as such: if a Kyrpton at his physical peek can lift 1 ton (or 2000 lbs) on Krypton, then Doomsday can lift 250 x 75 tons, or 18,750 tons. A bit much? Perhaps, but definitely, Doomsday should be stronger than Superman.
