I'd say the better question would be which character has the most over all power. If one could drain each character and use thier max power to say power up a machine, then I'd go with Superman. He absorbed the power of maggeddon. His heat vision powered the engines of war world. Surfers powers are concentrated really in his blast, while Superman's are spread out. In power out put, Superman has the better record. Tho On paper they would seem Dead Even.
But you could also say Superman derives his power from the Sun while Surfer can absorb and use anything in the Universe that realeases energy for power.

NO. Surfer absorbs the power cosmic. HE tried to absorb a sun and went mad. he couldn't absorb magic. He can't absorb the power primordal or he would have done so against the runner.
It's tough to say though, Superman doesn't directly convert sun into energy, though it is his primary known source. The truth of it is, the sun can't supply enough energy to do the things Superman does. A second of sunlight can bring Clark from powerless to moon smashing badass in the time in takes to illuminate his body. However, a few rays of sun can barely power a calculator.
It also has been hinted that Superman draws energy from all around, and at other times, that he draws upon an infinite well of power to accomplish whatever he may need to. Literally whatever he sets his mind to do.
We've also seen him draw and absorb other energy sources on panel.

He went mad b/c he tried to absorb the entire sun at once. Superman couldnt do that either. Surfer can still DRAW energy from ALMOST anything in the cosmos is what i meant to say.
And he CAN absorb the power primordal, he did it against that uni something creature IIRC.
I'm pretty sure he was speaking physically, given the context. If you're voting in favor of Surfer in that regard, I'll require a slew of proof.
Grab your scans of Surfer in hand to hand combat, and I'll gladly consider them up against Superman.
