So he's lying now? He's never been so hungry as to require two heralds. And there's no doubt about how weak Galactus'd have to be after being drained damn-near-dry by annihilus.
Actually... they did nothing to him... he would have destroyed the Shi'ar if it weren't for Galactus's OWN WORLD SHIP. Galactus didn't get killed by nothing besides his own tech.
He says that, after being cracked and broken by annihilus' drainings, and then proceeds to do something he's NEVER need to do; get two heralds.
If someone says 'that's the hardest I've ever been hit,' and then does something they've NEVER had to do - stay in the hospital for weeks on end - there's a good chance they weren't bluffing.

It does seem that SUperman prime if I'm not mistaken, powers all of the other superman. ALl of thier powers comes from him. The Superman all seemed pretty uber. Each far surpassing the current Superman. For like 800 centuries. That's a lot of power. so for solaris to even be a threat, he would have to be at least as powerful as a nearly full power Big G. For him to be any less doesn't make sense as Superman prime's power is too rediculous for him to be anything less.

for like, the i millionth time, WHERE did this feat ever take place!!!???? as far as i know this is totally a forum propagated myth.
as far as solaris -- i've asked this same question, made a few solaris threads and gauntlet, but fact is no one really seems to know -- or seems to really respond.
by what can we gage his power? well, he battled the superman descendents for 1000s of years, killed loads of them AND loads of versions of the jla. some of the supermen had powers that would put them at thanos-level or above. the imp-supermen must have been pretty crazy-tough . . . the entire jla1M were crazy tough, and most on the forum think they would defeat odin en masse. (NOT something i'm completely convinced of . . .)
and what did solaris do?
basically he was crushing the whole jla1M + the big 7 + . . . well . . . pretty well every OTHER hero in the distant future, all of whom seem to be considerably more powerful than their contempory counterparts . . . all at the same time!! and that included magic based opponents like the future captain marvel. in fact, that climactic battle reminded me a lot of the time in coie where all the heroes made a rush at the weakened anti-monitor.
the only thing that really threatened him in the future was something he had to take a moment to analyze -- the ring. and he would have become immune to THAT as well, and wiped kyle out except kyle's nova attack was 'illogical' to the sun. he caused the star to go nova endangering the life of everyone in the system. it wasn't that the attack was too powerful, or that he couldn't deal with lantern, it was the illogical nature and surprise that beat him. he had defenses against the black hole and had gone nova in the past and suffered no harm. even after kyle's attack he was still alive, though how powerful is unknown. had kyle not surprised it, solaris would have kicked all their areses easily. could prime have beat him? would prime have been killed by the k-nite bullet?? supes 1M had the k-nite weakness so maybe prime did too -- least he didn't eradicate the weakness in his descendents.
all that goes to say . . .
obviously he had massive energy wielding abilities and was able to discover weaknesses in opponents and use those weaknesses. he could seemingly devise defenses against any attack in moments. physical power mattered nothing to him and no one was really able to do much that he couldn't analyze and counter -- except be illogical. if galactus met solaris, maybe HE'D be the one who was drained . . .?
his ability to battle and be on the verge of defeating all these uber-characters clearly seems to say he's at a 'cosmic' level. but just how high is tough to gage but i'd say at least avergage galactus. given the nature of solaris's powers, i wouldn't say galctus's beating him would be at all a certainty.
