Inferring ability through the nature of the powerset is tricky, but I do believe it is justified in some circumstances. Eg, I've never seen the Flash pee, but I'm sure, if he wanted to, a Mach 100 urine stream would be well within his scope.

I'm glad you've found a Surfer fan to agree on your lack of anything resembling evidence, and who, like you, just writes empty statements, that aren't formed by anything even close to a logical argument ("If Flash, probably the fastest character in comics with various applications of his speed, including speeding up projectiles can pee really fast, it means Surfer can match Superman, eventough, unlike Flash, he doesn't have anything to support that supposition!").
Furthermore, if we're going to just randomly assume things based on nothing, why isn't Surfer faster than Wally himself in punching speed. Or Zoom. We can apparently deduce he is from absolutly nothing. It's just 'common sense', dude.
This is sad.

well, in my defense, i did find a very clear-headed, non-fanboy superman fan who agrees as well. or does pr simply write empty statements and agree with utterly illogical arguments all the time as well....
As condensing and annoying as Phil is, he does have a point. Superman simply outclasses Norrin. Nothing I've seen suggests that he can punch on Clark's level.
Character's like Surfer simply aren't portrayed as speedsters in combat consistently.
i think the point some people are trying to make is that surfer could replicate those type of punches if he chose to simply by the fact that the power cosmic can pretty much do anything. punching a guy seems like the lowest form of attack and is thus within the scope of the power cosmic, especially surfer's as he's the most powerful.
as for evidence of that to be true, there really is none as that's not something surfer does, so this is a faith based argument and is well deserving of a mod closure.
