^Really? Superman has them beat when it comes to processing and storing information clearly, but I'm definitely hesitant in agreeing with a large gap in intelligence. Was the device that made another world (The For Tomorrow arc) created purely by Superman from scratch or was their some existing Kryptonian tech to help him? That thing definitely overshadows anything I've scene the others built. Course that entire arc was like a shrine to Superman, but feats are feats.
The second place goes to Thor. At least based on feats of intelligence. Still, on average they operate on the same level.
I'm assuming intelligence is based on more scientific factors in this thread or the placements will have to be adjusted.

the answer to this depends on your definition of intelligence
I think I'm going to agree with Starscream here -can't believe I just said that- unless someone presents evidence that says otherwise.
None of these guys are known for high intelligence. Superman used to be back the day when he had super intelligence. These days Batman does most of the thinking and Supes gets to be the muscle. I might still give him first place. Surfer, Thor, and WW all can be a bit dense at times.
As far as heralds go, wouldn't Majestic be one of the smarter ones?

I think that's the point. If he added Reed Richards in here, the choice would be a fairly easy one.

He got it back in Up, Up and Away (OYL), and even before that he had sporadic bursts.
He's hardly the super genius he once was, but he is the king of this group, without a doubt.

Majestic is essentially a Pre-Crisis Superman (not in power, but in alienness and intelligence) so yeah, he'd be without a doubt the most intelligent on this list, and consistently so.
