A lot of the entries under Soldier Boy seem inapplicable. Particularly, they go off the assumption of the show version being an adaptation of the modern version from the comic who has sex with homelander, when there's really very little to link the two aside from both being on Payback.
Arguably the show version is an adaptation of the original soldier boy who was in WW 2. Even the uniforms are similar.

“He's significantly stronger than his character's inspiration and basis, Captain America, who though an enhanced super soldier with a number of physical advantages he's nowhere near as invulnerable or strong as Soldier Boy is (who's strength actually seems closer to that of The Hulk).“
Strength closer to that of Hulk? What is the latter portion of this assumption being based on, exactly? What feats of strength has Soldier Boy demonstrated in the show thus far that come even close to those of Hulk?
Also important to ask, which version of Hulk is this baselessly scaling him to? Comic Hulk has demonstrated far greater strength and destructive capabilities than anything we have seen Soldier Boy do with his physical strength and his radioactive beams. Hulk in the comics has the potential to destroy the planet and even wiped out an alternate universe. There is no character in “The Boys” who comes even close to that level of power-not even Homelander in either the source material or the show. Hell, you can even say the same thing about the underpowered MCU version of Hulk. As much as the MCU has nerfed him to hell, he has still caused more destruction than anything shown by Soldier Boy so far.
Not exactly smart to make a strength comparison out of nowhere between two powerful characters when one of the two hasn’t demonstrated feats even close to those of the other. Feats matter, and Soldier Boy hasn’t shown anything that puts him near Hulk.
