Surfer would just drain Superman of solar radiation...Supes is out from the start...as the Marvel duo would choose to eliminate him first.
Hal could keep the Surfer busy long enough for the rest of the team to take out Thor. After that, Wally could keep walloping the Surfer with IMP's...if Manhunter and Diana can get him within range.
It would be a hard fight...and several JLA will fall to Surfer...but Surfer goes down before it is over with.
Spite in in favor of team DC, Unless duo start out blood lust, because as soon ass team DC realize the duos power level all deals are off. Also all on team DC are faster then Thor and we all n we all no in battle speed kills.
JL win easily. Flash will still can them nearly by himself. He just steal their speed and can KO them to death. Of course, he wont do this 10/10 times, but a few times. Superman can still go head to head with Thor and arguably still win the majority, if not Thor will win 6/10. It doesn't matter though since any of the other JLA member can come and help Superman to make it a 10/10 against Thor. So any two combinations of the JL team will make them winners.
Superman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Flash (Wally), and Green Lantern (Hal)
Superman+WW>>>>>Thor 10/10 any day
Flash+GL Hal>>>>>>>>>>SS 10/10 any day of the week.
To claim that SS or Thor can beat any two combination of JL member is seriously idiotic. Any of these members are High herald and even if you know their entire history it wont help you win against them 10/10. It's stupid to think that.
Even if Superman gets taken out with no fight, then it's still three top-tiers + Flash vs two top-tiers. However they split it, the JLA will come out on top.
Hm... worst-case, J'onn goes down to fire relatively fast too, so it'd be down to three-on-two. That's fairly unlikely though as Diana and Hal are going to try and protect Clark from any Kryptonite and J'onn from any fire.
What kind of briefing does the JL team get? The Marvel boys could have an enormous element of surpirse in their favor going in knowing what they're up against while the JL does not, especially if weakness exploitation is involved.
If all the JL knows is their opponents' names, I could see Marvel winning.

I suppose if Thor and Surfer appeared out of nowhere and just omniblasted with the League not really knowing what to expect, they could do some damage.
Yeah, Darthgoober made a great case for how Surfer can beat Clark without resorting to weakness exploitation before. It just happens to be a quick and to the point way of getting the job done, which is in character for Surfer, especially if he knows it will work with little fuss.
Well that increases the odds by alot. If they have no idea how serious the threat and the duo know everything about thses guys and how they operate. Hmmm.... Still not sure if they can win though...
Thor and SS can take any combination of 2 characters in this list and SS can solo most of them. I doubt Flash can take out either of them with speedsteal, they have the PC and mjolnir afterall.
If the marvel duo has a full breafing and goes all out from the start with their exotic powers they can take it, only hal offers a true counter to their versatility and 2 of JLers have very easily exploitable weaknesses.
SM: kryptonite, red star, energy drain, bioaura manipluation etc.
MMH: fire and excess of iron in the blood.
These two can be put down at the beggining without much effort and this leaves WW, flash and hal. WW can be BFRed 1000 light years away or in another dimension, once again without strain.
Flash and Hal can escape most of the BFR options, but not all of them and if it's the two against thor and SS they loose. Flash has no answer to transmutation and hal can't match their stamina or SS's speed.
Yea, but they're going to figure out that they're facing big guns really fast. So while they won't know Thor and Surfer's particular styles, they'll get a rough impression of power almost immediately.
The JLAers also have pretty good teamwork going for them.
Hm, in what way can WW be BFRed easily that Hal couldn't?
I can think of some ways BFR could be used (though I wouldn't think a mjolnir portal would be 'easy' to apply), I'm just having trouble thinking of why it'd work on one and not the other.
