Thor has defeated Surfer on panel.
My opinion on Superman and Glads have nothing to do with this topic.
After Zeus completely fried hulk w/ a lightning bolt, you said: boy, hulk's really going to kick hi ass now. Afterwards, when Zeus kicked Hulk's shit in all over again, you said: man, hulk's going to destroy this guy in the rematch. Given what transpired in the comics, what could have made you say: "Man, Zeus is out of his league and clearly any future conflicts between the two will be entirely to the Olympian's credit"? Would Zeus have had to kill Hulk in order for you not to claim that Hulk would get the better of him next time?
Yes, Magneto has defeated Thor on Panel; and yes, Thor has defeated Surfer on panel. Now ask yourself why almost no one agrees with you that Magneto is superior to either Thor or Surfer.
Actually, your opinion on Gladiator and supes is not entirely unrelated to this topic, because 1) gladiator destroyed vulcan effortlessly, yet is inferior in power to the silver surfer, and 2) it is another example of cherry-picking feats -- you latch onto Vulcan's fight with Warlock in the same way you latch onto Gladiator's planet-smashing feat, while simultaneously ignoring the feats of other characters. Is manipulating Warlock's energy now more impressive than channeling the big crunch, or wafting away stars?
