Surfer won't be doing anything while under heavy attack except defending himself and losing power.
Phantom zone can be used in the blink of an eye while other attacks are being used.
It's obvious SS can't manipulate all tech, and his power can be cut off/ or taken from him leaving him helpless. See black panther for proof...and he certainly isn't hilariously going to snap his fingers for a win either.
Surfer is curbstomped.
Really because by my assessment...
Things like the Soul World and Mephisto's domain are good examples of how and why Surfer would retain his powers. ESPECIALLY since you want to act like SBP's time/space powers(of which Surfer is also in possession of) are the reason that he was able to escape.
Surfer can transmute the entire fortress in with a single blast(just like he did that house and all the beings on that planet) while Henshaw is transferring his consciousness so there won't BE a heavy attack. You've NEVER shown Cyborg creating matter from energy, which means that when the fortress is gone he's screwed.
The Phantom Zone is no guaranteed win against Surfer, and I've yet to see anything that demonstrates Henshaw transferring his consciousness and reconfiguring something the size of the Fortress of Solitude into a massive amalgam of every kind of tech he's ever been in contact with in the amount of time it would take Surfer to use a single blast of the power cosmic to transmute the fortress.
Tech's got a worse track record against Surfer than vice versa, and there's only been ONE instance(at least to my knowledge) of Surfer being unable to transmute tech, any other time he went down to it he didn't try to transmute it in the first place(which is of course, PIS). And the one instance that it WAS resistant was against an Elder of the Universe who had a massive amount of prep time and unknown resources to fortify his tech against the Power Cosmic.
Now on the other hand...
Hanks never shown resistance to transmutation, and he's been affected by it the only two times it's been attempted it was successful.
Aside from transmutation, Surfer has access to every weakness Henshaw inherits from Supes(Red Sun Radiation, Kryptonite, Solar Energy absorption), and he hasn't shown the tolerance that Supes has to Red Sun and absorption.
So I see Surfer taking the majority. I won''t put it past Henshaw to pull some wins here and there if they fight in character, but Surfer should win at least 6/10 from everything I've actually seen.
