Surfer to all, but 9, where I choose Superman.

Flash might also be a great choice for 3

It was practically the only type of storm summoning he did in the earlier JIM issues. As time past however it became perfectly clear that it wasn't mandatory. He does summon a storm without tapping the hammer and then goes on to tap the hammer to create the storms in a later issue.

Hence the "I'm old school."

You seemed to be claiming that Thor needs to tap his hammer twice to create a storm

Never happened.

Anyways, concession accepted?

Already? Well... I guess I'll accept it.

True. i was thought that category was more related to inventing the cure for AIDS for tho, rather than directly eliminating the disease from the planet.
He'd still be the best choice. Analyzes the virus with CA and synthtizes a molecule that acts as the best anti-retroviral drug ever. Or he makes everybody naturally immune to it. Cancer could be handled in similar lines, SS doesn't even need to really know what he's doing for the power cosmic to do what he wants it to.

Also true. didnt think of that initially.

EDIT- infact surfer has done something similar to that before

What happened? No Orion, Wondy, Nova, love???

Orion would have boom tubed the plutonian sample.
Nova can easily gate a million people from one place to another.
Wondy can broker world peace. How can you say no to her? =P

How could Thor possibly be the best choice for stopping the warheads? Maybe he can stop them, but in no way is he anywhere close to the most safe and efficient choice on the list.

Sure, if they're all in the same place. Or, Surfer could just command them to stop working with the PC wherever they are on earth. Which one is "sooo easy" now?

pshhh... see ure no fun at all. the ops says who would i pick. what's the fun in picking SS in all of the settings? you know he has the most varied pwerset. you make it seem like Thor would have trouble taking out nuclear warheads. in reality, it should be no problem at all. he can easily just gather them and port them all away into space where they'll detonate harmlessly.
but nooooooo... you had to pick ss. whaaahh... wahhh... ss is best. waaahhhhhh...
