The Power Gem It contains access to all power and energy that ever has or will exist, backs the other gems and boosts their effects. It allows the user to duplicate almost any physical superhuman ability and become invincible, and therefore unbeatable, when using raw power alone.
IF the power gem were as powerful as you make it out to be, then thanos would have had no need for the other gems. The power gem only gives the user a steadily rizing ceiling of power. Or an unexaustable lvl of thier current power.

Well it is when it's being used to it's full functionality however we have never seen it therefore from my point of view it is all speculation on what it could do since the guys who have had it in there possesion isn't exactly extremely intelligent ore having the Cosmic Awarness and haven't used it correctly the reality gem ore soul gem is a entire different story.
btw a scan that can cast a little ligth on the power gem.

That scans doesn't prove that the gem grants infinite power tho. He simply reverses thier power back upon them. Quasar has done that before.

YEs we know the power gem can Amp ANOTHER gem infinitly. Keep up.

So, Galactus takes the cosmic power back from Surfer, now he's just Norrin with two gems- what does he do?
First off - Power gem = infinite control of power. Literally infinite. Space gem literally gives you the ability to exist nowhere at once. Thanos demonstrated this ability already, it's on-panel and it's canon. What can Galactus do to someone that's not there? Surfer likewise can literally make as many copies of himself as he wanted. Thanos also demonstrated this when he was toying with Surfer after he got the gems.
He was showing, on-panel, what each of the gems could do by themselves. So galactus removes the power cosmic from one copy of a billion Silver Surfers, so what? Power Cosmic is meaningless when you have full knowledge of the Power Gem. With full knowledge of the Power Gem, you are power incarnate. The Power Gem allows both removal of power from someone, and grants infinite power to the wielder. To top it off, as shown in the Keeper saga, Silver Surfer was able to gain his silver skin and cosmic abilities with training after Galactus had removed them. Such a task would be child's play to someone with the full knowledge of the gem.

Stop using hyperbole and stories that aren't part of current continuity to as a backbone, it makes for better debating.
Galactus giveth power cosmic, and he takes it away.
Now what does Norrin with his two gems do?
Are you suggesting that he just waltzes in and absorbs Galactus?

I am not making shit up as you put it.
Re-read the Infinity Gauntlet Saga. Thanos clearly demonstrates what he can do with the individual gems. It is on-panel and it is canon. Silver Surfers' existing powers are moot when he has full use of the power and space gems. To top it off, read the Keeper saga - it shows that Silver Surfer was able to gain his powers back after Galactus had taken them away. I will dig up some scans shortly.

The Keeper saga... alternate reality. Training by the Watcher. And an assload of time to spare. 😬

Thanos showed what the gems could do individually before he showed what they can all do together. It will take me a while to dig up the scans, I will post them later.

The Keeper is an alternate reality. Not part of current continuity.
Even so, I'm doubting he's doing to do that mid-fight.
