Let's put it this way, I'm a huge Alan Scot fan but I don't lile full Starheart like in Blackest knight. Similarly even though I am a Hellstrom fanboy since they made him Hell Lord it's too much. Another of my favorite characters is Dark Nebula, but when the two characters that combine to give him his powers stopped fighting each other for control and he was an unstoppable force of nature he can't really be challenged. It just gets to hard to tell a story where a plausible threat exists to characters when they get that powerful.
One of the best parts of superhero stories is characters overcoming impossible odds via sheer determination and grit. If a character gets so powerful they can solo a team of powerhouses then how do you tell an interesting story? It's ok for a bad guy who appears once every so often who is a major threat to everything but not for a character with regular appearances to be that powerful
If Superman is operating using his fast perceptions to avoid getting hit then the team will be no problem. Surfer is the only threat because he has some legitimate high level superspeed. But nanosecond isn't much to femptosecond or doing many things within the fraction of a nanosecond.
Hulk had no trouble hitting a speeding Cosmic Carnage.

What do you mean by "too powerful"? Superman heat vision would be pointless. Superman ice breath would be pointless. His strength would do nothing but make Hulk more powerful and Hulk WILL hit him. Yes, Superman is fast but he isnt untouchable. Imagine fighting someone you're punching but they are getting more powerful by the second due to you attacking them? Also, Hulk could absorb Supermans power.
Since when does Hulk absorb the power of others?...that's not a normal ability of his power set, it's possible that the defenders might win here but they are going to work like hell for it if it happens.
