3. Who is most noble? Supes
4. Who is most heroic? Thor/Supes tie.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.

1. Who is most honourable? Thor. The Odinson is the one with the courage to eradicate evil completely. He succumbed to said evil but, hey, whatyagonna do?
2. Who can be the most ruthless? Thor. Anything that is necessary for the victory he will do.
3. Who is most noble? Superman. His intellect alone makes him a threat if he wanted to be.
4. Who is most heroic? Interesting. I would say Superman because he was more readily accepting of his role. Then there is Thor who basically chose to give up divinity and become a true champion for the people.
5. Who has the purest soul? Superman. Godlike but with the humilty of a mortal.
6. Who is most resistant to evil influence? Surfer. When you can create life it changes your perspective.
7. Who is more compassionate? Thor. The stories about his fighting immortals on behalf of mortals shows his compassion. There is a BIZARRE ADVENTURES story that is an absolute classic that everyone should read.
8. Who is the most violent? C'mon! It is the Surfer hands down. His silver coated hands are covered in Blood! MURDRER!
9. Who holds back the most when fighting? Superman. Thor has succumbed to warrior madness and Norrin has led billions to their deaths.
10. Who is more likely to kill? Surfer.
11. Who is most dangerous when turned evil? Superman. His intellect makes him the most dangerous.
12. Who is most willing to sacrafice personal gain for the greater good? Norrin gave up all for his planet.
13. Who has the highest moral standards? Superman. He killed as a last resort only.
I don't even know how people would go about picking a clear cut winner for some.
Your reasons for picking Superman as being the most honorable are weird. Not only has Superman been "devious" in the past, but he has done some questionable things in the past. I'd argue that Superman is more devious than Thor.
Why would Superman be more willing to sacrifice personal gain for the greater good? How would you even go about supporting that?
I don't know that Surfer is the most resistant to evil influence. Or that Superman is more noble.

Yeah, classic Thor was as noble, honorable and pure as they come. This was noticed and commented on more than once by individuals who were simply in his presence. IIRC, even Captain America noted how sometimes Thor makes him feel small or something of the sort. I remember Tigra or some other Avenger pointing out that they always work harder and better themselves in Thor's presence to try and live up to the aura he radiates.
Unfortunately, Marvel has had a more darker tone in the last decade. Fraction's run still has some impact on Thor's character being more brutal even now.
That was retconned. Mephisto found surfer's soul too dirty even for him and released him in disgust when his real memories were returned to him. Marz retconned surfer as willing to sacrifice other planets and killing billions in cold blood.
