A bloodlusted surfer with his myriad of abilities couldnt hurt Adam who is just standing there for 10 seconds? Seriously?

Wasn't there a "canon" cross-over where Silver Surfer absorbed and contained Parallax's power? That alone settles the Surfer vs Lantern debate.

And of course, Abhi sweeps in with Firestorm's feats to compensate for the lack of transmutation feats on part of the Lanterns. So how many characters is Surfer competing with now for feats? Black Adam, every Lantern, Firestorm? Meanwhile I don't even have the scale Surfer to other characters's feats to ensure his win here. Imagine how one-sided it would be if I either dismissed all the scaling for Black Adam or started to scale Surfer to other Heralds, Cable, Quasar, Gladiator, etc. and use their feats.

Blast him, punch him, telepathically induce pain, blowing up the planet, generating a black hole, or just absorb his powers and/or revert him back into Theo with his accelerated evolution powers.

Surfer is arguably as fast as the Flash, more durable than Superman, has better energy projection than either Hal, Kyle or John, is better at transmuting matter than Firestorm, is a better telepath than Martian Manhunter, etc. and that only accounts for a fraction of what he's capable of.

Unless he's holding back there's no one member of the League (or equivallent) that can stand up to him, unless we're talking about amped versions like Ion or Parallax.

It was Kyle who absorbed power cosmic from Parallax and Oan power from Thanos, he just gave it to Surfer to contain it.

Its settled then, GLs drain power cosmic from Surfer.

Where did I do that?

You're more than welcome to try.

Let's add better detective than Batman, better at being crazy than joker, better magic than Dr Fate when all you're doing is simply talking out of your ass.

Well, I'm still waiting for all those feats buddy boy. Any day now.

Whoa now buddy, forget amped versions, let's see him against a weaker version of Byrne era Superman.

Yeah, he showed up Cyborg Superman alright lol.

I think Abhi only brought Firestorm up to show that the Kyle created beings who were alive, as opposed to inorganic 'unalive' constructs.

Nice set of feats showing that Kyle doesn't just shoot beams of light and make light constructs, though.

He does not even bother to read posts at this point.

I didn't imply he couldn't. I'm curious of how. Give me one way (a way Surfer would most employ).

Blast him won't work. Surfer is not known for damaging high heralds with his blast. If you disagree then show a time Surfer significantly hurt a high herald with his blasts. Punch him won't work. Surfer is too weak. BRB feat is invalid because BRB was hurt from the board. And BA is stronger than BRB.

Other tactics either won't work, Surfer doesn't have that ability, or Surfer will not be doing them in a forum fight.

Surfer is incredibly slow actually. His board is fast, which some members say it's sentient. So he does not get his boards feats. But that's travel speed, not combat speed. I would say Spider-Man is faster than Surfer (without board) in combat.

I shouldnt have to. Look at any Surfer respect page and you'll find numerous ways.

H1 is actually right about it, Surfer's blasts are usually shrugged off by Thor class beings.

BA takes a majority. Norrin doesn't have anything that could take him down permanently.

Who said anything about blasts?

Even then all Kyle can do is shoot beams of light and create hard-light constructs. Silver Surfer can also do that...and pretty much anything else. Matter creation and decreation, matter-energy transmutation, energy absorbtin, spacetime manipulation, etc.

Surfer could use the Power Cosmic to stop Kyle's heart. What then? There's no energy-blast for Kyle to shield himself against, his heart just suddenly stops. At the end of the day, Kyle is just human, he depends on his internal organs for subsistence, and it's not like Kyle could perform open-heart surgery on himself even with his ring.

Silver Surfer is a less powerful Dr. Manhattan, but with the same range of powers.

Big to differ, this guys didn’t shrugged off his blast

To compare Surfer versatility requires all of GL members feat and FireStorm 🙄 probably why his the stable poster boy her in KMC in that regard .

Goobers Gang 😂

Your just jealous Whirly, your not in it 😅

Firestorm wasn't used as a versatility showing....

We’ll not indirectly compared but all the same; FireStorm in effect couldn’t this which Kyle created = Uber feat >>> ???? Surfer

I think it was to show that he created something living. Firestorm at the time couldn't affect living things, so it was just a way of showing it was alive.

Another way would be having Batman or Mr Terrific running tests. It's just shorthand to move the story along.

Tony, for example, has created AIs and armours that are advanced enough to think and process information.....but they're not alive . The firestorm test is just to say hey, don't question it, they're alive.
