i think you are seriously underestimating the jla side here...
superman or orion couldnt destroy a planet? j'onn isnt a top class telepath? thats just three...
Im not saying that they wont have a chance against thor, its superman and wonderwoman that we're talking about, they would give almost anyone a good fight but I just dont think that they'll beat thor and if they did it wont be speed that gave them the win (even though I still dont see them winning).
I know the crunch didnt empower surfer but you still cant take away from the fact that surfer defeated them. Before the crunch he was giving them a fight, before the fight when he was going one on one with aegis, that is impressive enough since she is stated on being on the same level as galactus and surfer was soloing her.
Im not underestimating the jla, Im thinking like this, you have 3 powerhouses that have shown the ability to do almost anything, then you have a team that is powerful also but have fallen to less powerful beings. Then the three that is going against this team is almost next to impossible to take out by brute force. Now the team is packed full of people that use nothing but brute force and has a lot of weakness.
Superman is weak to kryptonite (something that silver surfer can conjur), he is also weak to tremendous blows (despero koed him with one hit, titus koed him with one hit, mongul one shotted him, Hawkman one shotted him, kalibak recently hit him with a powerful blow koing him.) and the team possess great strength and also has the ability to increase there strength. Superman is weak to magic (which thor carries a diesel full of, along with thanos) and hes weak to red sunlight (which surfer or thor could conjur).
Wonderwoman, electricity isnt a fan of hers and blasts isnt a fan of hers either along with blunt force, the team packs a great deal of that.
The problem comes from martian manhunter. He is one of the most versatile on the team but I think that anyone of team two has a way around the intagibility.
Gl, not even worried about them due to too many people breaking through there barriers like paper and I dont think that theyre shields would protect them long enough to survive a blast from either of the marvel team.
Good fight but I see marvel team pulling a majority.
